The rise of crypto-currencies and the subsequent popularity has brought with it the emergence of moneymaking opportunities that had never been witnessed before. Think about it: bitcoin, the leading crypto-currency, has increased in value by more than ten times in the last 4 years alone, from lows of $500 per bitcoin to over $5000 per bitcoin.

Then Ethereum may be all you need to make your dreams a reality. Indeed, Ethereum is an exciting revolutionary investment option that can guarantee a brighter financial future. Therefore, take advantage of it and start reaching for success.
This guide aims at expediting your discovery of smarter investment strategies by providing basic information about Ethereum to help you seamlessly build your investment portfolio, while confidently navigating the various concepts of mining and smart contracts and gaining attractive returns.
This guide is also fully aware that Ethereum is still in its infancy and is laced with unique risks and complexities. As such, your ingenuity is essential in devising new initiatives and innovative approaches that can help you navigate this fast-growing domain without being overwhelmed by the emerging pitfalls and barriers. However, like any other investment plan, always remember that hard work and consistency pays! So, let’s plunge right into Ethereum!
Chapter 1: Ethereum: A Comprehensive Background
What is Ethereum?
Simply put, Ethereum refers to an open software platform that’s founded on blockchain technology which provides developers with an opportunity to build and deploy applications from anywhere around the world.
For you to understand this definition better, let’s first discus what blockchain technology entails.
Blockchain Technology
First and foremost, nowadays, most of our financial information, passwords and personal data are mainly stored on other people’s computers and or servers owned by such companies as Google, Facebook, Netflix or Amazon. Thus, these companies deploy teams of highly skilled personnel that work tirelessly to help store and secure your data, regardless of what happens. This gives you a lot of convenience. For instance, you can easily access your data from any part of the world, as long as you’ve a reliable connection to the internet.
However, this convenience comes with a host of challenges. In some cases, the hosting company may charge you to hold your data when called upon and large volumes of data may attract hefty hosting charges. Also, when using such applications as Netflix or Facebook, you may encounter instances where a site is down
and you can’t move as fast as you would wish. This means that the application can’t access the data it needs as a result of various impeding issues; and should the data center or server break down, then the application stops working completely. Quite nauseating, isn’t it?
Additionally, your data is highly vulnerable and may succumb to threats from external attacks. Any government or a hacker can attack or influence the third party server, thereby gaining access to your data without your knowledge. With such unauthorized access, the hackers can even go as far as altering, leaking or stealing your important information.
Because of these shortcomings, decentralization of the internet has always been thought to be long overdue. In this regard, many tools are being devised to realize this goal. Blockchain technology is one of these tools. Blockchain technology was brought into the limelight by Satoshi Nakamoto in 2009 and continues to evolve as it grows in popularity. Max Kaplan, a blockchain enthusiast, defines a blockchain as a series of distributed computing devices that are linked to each other while sharing and authenticating data. A blockchain actually refers to a database that’s distributed across multiple different computing devices placed anywhere around the world. These computing devices are also referred to as nodes
and they share the
