Ethereum's creator, Vitalik Buterin, was inspired to develop decentralized systems after a negative experience with the centralized control in the game World of Warcraft. Ethereum is now one of the most invested projects globally, with a total locked value of over $65 billion and a market cap surpassing major companies like Mastercard and Oracle. ETH is currently trading at $3,800.76, up 1% in the last 24 hours.
