Ethereum turns 10 today! On Jul 30th, 2015, Ethereum’s genesis block was mined — kicking off a decade of innovation, experiments, forks, gas wars, and on-chain culture. Some fun facts to celebrate: 🧠 Born from a whitepaper by 19-year-old Vitalik Buterin in 2013. Two years later, it went live. 💰 Crowdfunded launch, raising ~31,000 BTC in its 2014 presale. No VCs, no insider allocations. 👾 First DApp? Etheria, a Minecraft-style game from 2015… rediscovered in 2021. 💥 The DAO hack (2016) led to Ethereum’s most famous fork — and the birth of Ethereum Classic. ⚙️ Smart contracts changed everything, enabling DeFi, NFTs, DAOs, stablecoins, and more. 🌱 “The Merge” (2022) switched Ethereum from PoW to PoS, cutting energy use by over 99%. 🛠️ Still evolving: L2s, restaking, account abstraction, danksharding… From an idea to a decentralized, permissionless world computer — Ethereum changed how we think about money, code, and trust. Here’s to the next 10 years! #ETH
