Ethereum: what the data says

The largest smart contract platform, underpinning most of the decentralized applications and tokens across the crypto industry. Since 2022, with the upgrade known as "The Merge," it has moved away from energy-intensive mining in favor of proof-of-stake, drastically cutting its energy footprint. Its native token, ETH, is used to pay transaction ("gas") fees across thousands of applications built on its network, from decentralized finance to NFTs.
