What are Ethereum and ETH?
Ethereum is a decentralised blockchain network and software development platform. Ether (ETH) is the network's native cryptocurrency.
ETH is used to pay transaction fees, often called gas fees, whenever people use Ethereum or the applications built on it. ETH also helps keep the network secure. Put simply, buying ETH means acquiring Ethereum's native asset.
