Vitalik Buterin explains Ethereum

3 minute explanation of Ethereum by inventor Vitalik Buterin.

Ethereum is a platform that makes it possible for any developer to write and distribute next-generation decentralized applications.

Borrowing the concept of distributed consensus and cryptographic proof that makes cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin so effective in trustless payments, Ethereum extends the use of these technologies to trustless agreements. This allows developers to easily build innovative new products on a censorship and collusion-resistant foundation.

Ethereum will go live in Q4 2014, in the meantime we are regularly releasing alpha software so you can try your hand at building distributed applications.

Yes, but who will explain Vitalik Buterin?

I can’t figure out if he’s reading a script or his eyes are just reading lines of code like neo in the matrix.

Why couldn’t YouTube have this in my recommendations when it was first posted 😣😣😣

I'M NEW TO CRYPTO CURRENCY TRADING AND I'VE BEEN MAKING LOSSES TRYING TO MAKE PROFIT MYSELF IN TRADING...I THOUGHT TRADING ON DEMO ACCOUNT IS JUST LIKE TRADING THE REAL MARKET... CAN ANYONE HELP ME OUT OR AT LEAST ADVICE ME ON WHAT TO DO?

*Great stuff and nice video. I watch several youtube videos on how to trade in the stock market but haven't made any headstart because they are either talking some gibberish or sharing their story of how they made it and I do not want to make mistakes by taking risks in my own hands*

[willardharper]

Successful people don't become that way overnight. What most people see at a glance wealth, a great career, purpose is the result of hard work and hustle over time. I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life.

Thanks vitalik for donating worth a billion dollars crypto currency for covid relief 🙏
Love from 🇮🇳

[BantryBai]

As a computer programmer for the last 10 years, i'm certain that we'll look back at Ethereum as the start of something truly revolutionary. The blockchain and decentralized applications are only beginning to be recognized for the benefits they offer.

[Rayshod]

Crypto investment is great unlike the stock market and other financial market, crypto has no centralised location since it operates 24hrs in different part of the world

*I didn't get everything I prayed for until I became the person ready to receive (Good returns). People who usually give up in life are people who lose in life too. my first experience happens to be a failure but I never gave up cause l knew it was going to work out for me some day, tryings fortunately I'm smiling today by getting involved in Crypto investment*

[tickytocky-doch]

The Russians brought him back from a space mission to change humanity.
