Ethereum stable
Ethereum is an open source public blockchain platform with smart contract function. It provides decentralized virtual machine (Ethereum virtual machine) to process point-to-point contract through its special cryptocurrency ether (also known as "Ethereum")
The token on theblockchain is called ether, and the code is eth. It can be traded in many foreign exchange markets of cryptocurrency, and it is also the medium used to pay transaction fees and computing services on Ethereum
the concept of Ethereum was first proposed by vitalik buterin, a programmer, from 2013 to 2014, inspired by bitcoin, with the general meaning of "next generation cryptocurrency and decentralized application platform", and began to develop through ICO crowdfunding in 2014. As of February 2018, Ethernet is the second highest cryptocurrency in market value, second only to bitcoin
extended data:
Ethereum platform has no characteristics and value. Like programming languages, it's up to entrepreneurs and developers to decide what to use. However, it is clear that some application types benefit more from the functions of Ethereum than others. Ethereum is especially suitable for those applications that automatically interact directly between points or promote group coordination activities across networks
for example, coordinate the application of point-to-point market, or the automation of complex financial contracts. Bitcoin enables indivials to exchange money without the help of financial institutions, banks or governments. The impact of Ethereum may be more profound
in theory, any complex financial activities or transactions can be automatically and reliably carried out on Ethereum with coding. In addition to financial applications, any application scenario with high requirements for trust, security and persistence, such as asset registration, voting, management and Internet of things, will be affected by Ethereum platform on a large scale
reviewing the financing of EOS, we not only set many records of ICO, but also a significant milestone in the whole history of open market financing. During the 350 day subscription cycle, 200000 people participated in ICO, accumulating 7.2 million ether coins. According to the market price of the day, the total amount reached US $4.3 billion, which is close to the total IPO amount of Google (US $2.7 billion) and twitter (US $2.1 billion). It is the largest ICO in history so far. It's very worthwhile to make a comprehensive summary. I very much hope that what I write can penetrate the surface of the facts, catch the essence hidden behind, and become a part of historical records
EOS's ICO uses Ethereum's smart contract to complete the automatic subscription and allocation of funds. There is no middleman, and there is no role of investment bank and underwriter of traditional securities listing. This is a primary market. The total number of EOS coins is 1 billion, of which 900 million are distributed to subscribers and 100 million are reserved by block.one. All the funds obtained from the subscription belong to block.one company. Meanwhile, according to the subscription agreement, these funds directly become the profits of the company, and there is no other responsibility and obligation relationship with the subscribers, nor the responsibility and obligation to maintain and develop the EOS software and network. The main network of EOS will be launched by the loosely organized technology forum community, The network operation funds are automatically generated by the code rules, and new EOS tokens are issued to pay to the block procer nodes
in the process of ICO, the secondary market (exchange) is fully opened at the same time. After the completion of the subscription in the primary market, the general financing will enter the secondary market for a period of time. However, the financing cycle is as long as 350 days. The obtained Ethereum EOS token can enter the secondary market for circulation on the same day, resulting in a large number of turnover transactions, The prices of the two markets fluctuated simultaneously
after the end of ICO, the total market value of EOS was US $11 billion, ranking fifth in the list of digital currencies. BCH (US $17 billion), which is closer to fourth place, is more than twice as big as ripple (US $24 billion), which is third place. Compared with the total funding of $4.3 billion, according to the popular view of ICO, it is only three times as much
whether Ethereum has investment prospects or not, we just need to see its value, From tens of dollars to hundreds of dollars of the increase, and do not say the future bubble or not, just say that this stage of appreciation of the space, it is worth our attention!
