Performance of Ethereum Across Market Features

Ethereum Likes & Dislikes

Like

The standout feature of Ethereum is its distributed ledger system as it doesn't rely on a central governing agency like a bank. The developer community around Ethereum and smart contracts is incredibly large and is a life saver while working with smart contracts.

Like

It supports a variety of use cases like decentralized apps, decentralized finance, NFTs and supply chains. It's secure and has a strong user community.

Like

Inspite of various features about the smart contracts, it provides various tools like hardhat and truffle which tells either our smart contract is correctly working in each and every aspects.

Dislike

The learning curve for Ethereum and its smart contracts is steep. Understanding gas fees for executing transactions around the blockchain and wallet management for token storage can be quite challenging for a new user.

Dislike

Its transaction cost is very high and during high volume transactions, the transaction speed is also very slow. Transaction costs and speed are unpredictable during high demand.

Dislike

1- Limited User friendly- It is still difficult to use for a new person like metamask 2-Complexity of tools like hardhat and truffle, overall not so detailed version instead only precise version is defined 3-Security Issues and the hacking concepts, should provide the all forms of possible attacks

    A Powerful Blockchain Platform for developing decentralized apps.

    5.0
    Jan 5, 2025
    Ethereum is the first blockchain to introduce smart contracts, which enable developers to build decentralized and tamper-proof applications. Its security and constant upgrades make it one of the best blockchains. The only drawback is that its transaction speed is slow and fees are high, however Layer 2 solution integration reduces the cost and ensures that the same smart contract runs on other blockchain platforms which are based on Ethereum.
