About Blockchains

About Ethereum

Ethereum emerges as a decentralized, open-source blockchain platform empowering developers to craft and deploy smart contracts alongside dApps. Pioneering the smart contract concept, Ethereum enables self-executing agreements with terms directly encoded into its blockchain, eliminating the need for intermediaries. Additionally, Ethereum serves as a hub for the creation and exchange of NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) and various digital assets. Its intrinsic cryptocurrency, Ether (ETH), facilitates network transactions and incentivizes miners to uphold network security. Ethereum's evolution to Ethereum 2.0 introduces a proof-of-stake (PoS) mechanism, aiming to enhance scalability and energy efficiency.

About Moonbeam

Moonbeam is an EVM-compatible smart contracts platform built in the Polkadot ecosystem. It's designed for seamless compatibility with Ethereum tooling to provide a user-friendly environment for porting existing and developing new dApps. Also, as the biggest Polkadot parachain Moonbeam encourages cross-chain communication with other parachains.
