Ethereum is an open-source, blockchain-based platform that allows developers to build and deploy decentralized applications also known as DAPPs. Founded by Vitalik Buterin in late 2013, Ethereum is often considered the second-generation blockchain, following the success of Bitcoin founding in 2008.
Buying Example
- Example Price: ETH: $2000
- Let’s say you would like to buy $5,000 worth of Ethereum
- Our Fees for a $5,000 Transaction is 5%
- $5,000 x 0.95 = $4,750
- In turn, you would receive $4,750 worth of Ethereum. If the price is $2,000 at the time of purchase, you would receive 2.375 ETH
Selling Example
- Example Price: ETH: $2000
- Let’s say you would like to sell 2 Ethereums
- The example price is $2,000 per Ethereum. 2 Ethereum would equal $4,000. Our Fees for a $4,000 Transaction is 5%
- $4,000 x 0.95 = $3,800
- In turn, you would receive $3,800 in cash if the price of Ethereum is $2,000 at the time of the transaction
