Part 1: Prior to Network Inception (Early 2013 - July 30, 2015) Ethereum was first outlined as a proof-of-concept ‘world computer’ in the original 2013 whitepaper by Vitalik Buterin, an early Bitcoin contributor and co- founder of Bitcoin Magazine. As an early adopter of Bitcoin, Buterin developed the view that a digital currency and its associated blockchain could facilitate much more than simple P2P electronic value transfer. In pursuit of this grander vision, he set out to create a computationally complete virtual ecosystem, featuring a global blockchain and smart contract programming platform. Both would be powered by a native digital currency, ETH. 7. CoinMarketCap.com, Messari / OnChainFX. As of February 12, 2020. 8. ETH does not have max supply. 72 million ETH was created at inception and supply increases in a disinflationary fashion, with new issuance capped at 16 million ETH per year. The inflation rate will ultimately approach zero. 9. “Monetary Policy.” EthHub. https://docs.ethhub.io/ethereum-basics/monetary-policy/. 10. Ibid. 11. Ethereum Average Block Time Chart. Etherscan.
