The goal of Ethereum is to decentralize everything using blockchain technology. Ethereum seeks to cut out banks, stock exchanges, and even lawyers and replace them with a blockchain, a decentralized ledger of transactions. Individuals or companies will be able to issue “smart” shares or contracts on Ethereum’s blockchain that give a user pre-programmed rights or capabilities.
