The internet that belongs to you
Ethereum is the global network where you control your assets, your data, and your identity.
Never offline
10 years
Since 2015
Built to last
Ethereum has run continuously since 2015 without a single second of downtime.
The code is open for anyone to verify. No company runs it, no one can shut it down, and thousands of independent operators keep it going worldwide.
What makes Ethereum different
Principles that set Ethereum apart from traditional systems
Direct ownership
Your bank balance is a custody promise. Your Ethereum balance is true ownership.
4ドル.6B+
Daily trading volume (USD)
Public rules
The code is public, agreements execute exactly as written. Think vending machine versus hoping the cashier gives correct change.
Global
Anyone, anywhere can use Ethereum. No permission needed.
Free access
No credit check, no minimum balance, no account approval. If you have internet, you're in.
Nobody owns Ethereum
Changes happen through open proposals that anyone can participate in. Think community garden versus corporate farm.
