What is Ethereum (ETH)?
Ethereum is a decentralised computing platform that launched in 2015, created by Vitalik Buterin and a team of co-founders. While Bitcoin was designed mainly to move value, Ethereum was built to run code: developers deploy "smart contracts" that execute automatically, powering everything from stablecoins and lending apps to NFTs and games.
Its native token, Ether (ETH), is used to pay the "gas" fees that keep the network running and to secure the chain. In 2022 Ethereum completed the Merge, switching from energy-hungry mining to proof-of-stake, where validators lock up ETH to help confirm blocks. That change cut the network’s energy use by more than 99% and let holders earn staking rewards.
Ethereum sits at the centre of decentralised finance and the broader Web3 economy, and a large share of all crypto activity settles on it or on layer-2 networks built on top of it. ETH’s price reflects both that demand and wider market sentiment, so use the chart and indicators here as an informational guide to the trend rather than financial advice.
If you are trying to make sense of the Ethereum chart, these are the drivers we watch: demand for block space from DeFi, stablecoins and NFTs, the amount of ETH being staked and burned through the fee mechanism, growth of layer-2 networks that settle back to Ethereum and wider market sentiment and rotation between Bitcoin and altcoins. They are worth knowing, but none of them hands you the next move in advance.
Ethereum FAQ
What are gas fees on Ethereum?
Gas is the fee paid in ETH to have the network process a transaction or run a smart contract. It rises when the network is busy and falls when it is quiet, which is one reason layer-2 networks exist to offer cheaper transactions.
Is Ethereum deflationary?
Not always. Part of each fee is burned, permanently removing ETH from supply, while staking rewards create new ETH. Whether net supply shrinks or grows depends on how busy the network is at any given time.
What is the current price of Ethereum?
About $1,796.46 per ETH at the time this page loaded. Because crypto trades 24/7, the ETH price updates continuously, so refresh the page to see the latest figure and 24-hour change.
What drives the price of Ethereum?
The main forces behind Ethereum's price include demand for block space from DeFi, stablecoins and NFTs, the amount of ETH being staked and burned through the fee mechanism, growth of layer-2 networks that settle back to Ethereum and wider market sentiment and rotation between Bitcoin and altcoins. These help explain why ETH moves the way it does, but they are context rather than a forecast — no factor guarantees a direction.
