Vitalik Buterin, co-founder of Ethereum

Vitalik Buterin was born on January 31, 1994, in Kolomana, Moscow, Russia. He moved to Canada at the age of 6, where he projected a genius from an early age. Since the age of 9, he has participated in genius projects in mathematics and programming and has become his genius. He is also the favorite of World of Warcraft games and comes from the Blizzard camp.

Vitalik Buterin's major turning point was when he learned about Bitcoin in 2011, which led him to do research and try to find Bitcoin. He couldn't mine himself, so he adopted the method of blogging, during which he was paid $5 for Bitcoin.

His article also attracted the attention of Mihai Alisie, a Bitcoin enthusiast from Romania, which led to the establishment of Bitcoin magazine at the end of 2011. Vitalik Buterin took this job seriously, which led him to decide to quit his full-time job.

From looking for information to writing a blog, his understanding of the work and goals of each Crypto is too specific and narrow. From his point of view, he believes that blockchain technology can go further. After studying Protokoll's work, he put forward an idea, but it was rejected, so he began to do it himself and gave birth to "Ethereum".

In late 2013, Buterin explained his ideas in a white paper and sent them to several friends. His ideas became more and more, and someone contacted him to discuss this idea. At first, the concept behind "Ethereum" was still an encryption concept in the early days, and the turning point came in 2014. The team thinks it is quite simple to create scattered file storage space, while another idea, such as name registration, can be realized in just a few lines of code.

"Ethereum" was also released in January 2014. The core team included Buterin, Alisie, Anthony Di Iorio, Charles Hoskinson, Joe Lubin, and Gavin Wood, Buterin also introduced Ethereum on the platform of the Bitcoin conference held in Miami. A few months later, Buterin also sold the first initial coin of Ethereum as the development fund. At the same time, Buterin Yong also won a $100,000 Thiel Scholarship, and the team raised more than 31,000 bitcoins, or about $18 million, from the sale of ETH.

The Ethereum team established the Ethereum Foundation, a non-profit organization in Switzerland, whose task is to develop its open-source software.

Ethereum encountered many problems, but the fundraising activities of Ethereum were successful, and became today's Ethereum.
