How to Buy Ethereum in Canada

What is Ethereum (ETH)?

Ethereum is a decentralized, global platform for digital money and building applications. Ether (ETH), on the other hand, is traded as a digital currency that also enables operations on the Ethereum platform. Unlike other blockchains, ETH has its own programming language that enables developers to build and run applications. ETH uses its token Ether to power the deployment of smart contracts and decentralized applications.
