Ethereum Goes Live - July/August 2015
Ethereum's Frontier mainnet launched on July 30, 2015. The first few days of trading saw ETH at approximately $1-3. On August 7, 2015, Ethereum traded around $1. It was conceived by Vitalik Buterin as a programmable blockchain - 'Bitcoin but with smart contracts.' At launch, few predicted that this $1 token would become the foundation for DeFi, NFTs, and a trillion-dollar ecosystem. Early Ethereum buyers saw returns that dwarf even Bitcoin's impressive gains.
