Ethereum was described by creator Vitalik Buterin in a whitepaper in late 2013, and launched in a prototype state in 2015. Apart from Buterin, founding members of Ethereum include Mihai Alisie, Anthony Di lorio, Charles Hoskinson, Amir Chetrit, Joseph Lubin, Gavin Wood, and Jeffrey Wilke. Not all these individuals are still with the Ethereum Foundation, a few have moved on to work on other projects, such as Charles Hoskinson who is now associated with Cardano, while Gavin Wood is now working on Polkadot.
Ether is the native cryptocurrency of the Ethereum blockchain. Ether is generated by the Ethereum protocol as a reward to miners who help to maintain the network. Ether is used to pay all transaction fees on the network, and is central to the operation of Ethereum in that it incentivises the growth of the mining pool, allowing Ethereum to further decentralise.
Smart contracts are an innovative feature at the heart of Ethereum. Using a variety of coding languages, developers can create programs that run on the Ethereum blockchain that automatically execute transactions when certain conditions are met. For example, if you buy insurance from an insurer, a smart contract can be created to manage the policy. If the contract detects the conditions of the policy are met, it will automatically disburse the money to your account – if not, it will terminate the conclusion of the policy.
All blockchain protocols require resources to process transactions and execute commands on the network. Gas is Ethereum’s way of quantifying the cost of these resources and sharing the cost amongst the user pool. Whenever you send money, set up a smart contract or take any other action on the network, you are required to pay a gas fee. This Gas fee is paid to the miners who maintain the network and are responsible for facilitating your transaction. The amount of Gas you pay directly correlates with how fast your transaction will be processed, as miners will select for and prioritise transactions with a higher value to them – the maximum amount of Gas you are willing to pay is called your Gas limit.
