Among cryptocurrencies, ether is second only to bitcoin in market capitalization. [2] [3] It is open-source software. Ethereum was conceived in 2013 by programmer Vitalik Buterin. [4]

The DAO was a digital decentralized autonomous organization [5] and a form of investor-directed venture capital fund. [6] After launching in April 2016 via a token sale, it became one of the largest crowdfunding campaigns in history, [6] but it ceased activity after much of its funds - in the form of US$ exchanged for "Ether-crypto coins" - were taken in a hack in June 2016.
A well-known example, intended for venture capital funding, was The DAO, which amassed 3.6 million ether (ETH)—Ethereum's native cryptocurrency—then worth more than US$70 million in May 2016, and was hacked and drained of US$50 million in cryptocurrency weeks later. [9]
Solidity is the primary programming language for developing smart contracts on the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). [32] However, Rust has emerged as a strong alternative in the blockchain ecosystem, especially for blockchains that support WebAssembly (Wasm), such as Polkadot , Klever and Solana .
AV1 is a free modern video format developed by the Alliance for Open Media (AOM). It delivers high quality video at lower bitrates than H.264 or even H.265/HEVC. Unlike HEVC, it can be streamed in common web browsers. It is being adopted by YouTube and Netflix, amongst others. As of 2023, a few encoders use AV1.
