The Ethereum cryptocurrency is denoted by a Ξ and abbreviated as ETH
Smallest unit of an Ether is Wei named after Wei Dei, a crypto pioneer One of the most noteworthy contributions of Wei Dei was his paper on b-money in 1998, that laid the foundation for cryptocurrencies as we see now
Ethereum is derived from the word Ether which essentially was used to describe exotic invisible elements that were believed to have filled the void in space
Like all cryptocurrencies Ethereum is still very much in a developmental phase

Who created Ethereum?
In 2013, Vitalik Buterin, a 19 year old programmer first proposed Ethereum blockchain in his whitepaper Later in 2014 along with a long list of co-founders Vitalik set crowdfund for the development of Ethereum protocol On july 30, 2015 the Ethererum network was open for mining

Vitalik had always been a bright student
He won a bronze in the International Olympiad in Informatics in 2012

How Ethereum works?
Fundamentally Ethereum works like Bitcoin with its own Blockchain with ‘nodes’ interconnected globally maintaining records of transactions Since it’s accessible to all, anyone can run an Ethereum node
Three types of nodes operate in an Ethereum blockchain
Full node – Full nodes copy and verify all transactions and execute smart contracts called ‘opcodes’
Light node – Light nodes do the function of full nodes partially on lighter devices like mobile phones
Full archive node – These nodes archive each state of the Ethereum
Each node stores the following data – Accounts, Smart Contract Code and Smart Contract State
You will need a significant amount of storage to run a Full node in Ethereum
Smart Contracts
Smart Contracts can be written in any high level language
However the most popular language used to deploy Smart Contracts is Solidity Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) converts these into low level languages via machine translation
Smart Contracts led to the development of DeFi
Shift From Proof-of-Work to Proof-of-Stake
