Ethereum (ETH) is one of the leading public Blockchain networks creating a revolution in the cryptocurrency sector. Ethereum (ETH) offers users unique flexibility and innovation in the digital world by providing smart contracts, decentralized applications (dApps), and a wide range of decentralized solutions. In this article, you can find answers to two frequently asked questions: What is Ethereum (ETH) and how to buy Ethereum (ETH) with TRY.
What is Ethereum (ETH)?
Ethereum is a decentralized platform that allows developers to create and deploy smart contracts and dApps. Unlike Bitcoin, which primarily serves as a cryptocurrency, Ethereum’s Blockchain provides a robust framework for running programmable contracts and creating various dApps. At its core, Ethereum enables users to interact directly with each other through smart contracts without the need for intermediaries.
The Ethereum network consists of several key components, including the Ethereum Blockchain, nodes, and the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). While the Blockchain stores transaction and smart contract data, nodes verify and maintain the network’s integrity. The EVM runs smart contracts written in programming languages like Solidity, ensuring complex features and dApps operate smoothly on the Ethereum network.
Ether (ETH) coin is the main asset of Ethereum and serves multiple purposes within the Ethereum ecosystem. First, ETH coin is used to pay transaction fees, known as gas fees, when interacting with smart contracts and dApps on the Ethereum Blockchain. ETH coin also has intrinsic value as a decentralized, pseudonymous, and censorship-resistant cryptocurrency, making it an attractive asset for both investors and users.
With Ethereum, users can create a wide range of interoperable utility tokens and decentralized applications, including those in the emerging decentralized finance (DeFi) sector. Smart contracts power innovative applications that provide services without intermediaries, offering transparency, efficiency, and security. Moreover, Ethereum facilitates the creation and trading of NFTs, digital assets that represent ownership of unique items such as artwork, music, and collectibles.

Identity verification on Binance TR is one of the security procedures that must be performed before starting cryptocurrency trading and during account creation. This process is also necessary to protect both the user and the cryptocurrency exchange. Depending on your preference, you can complete the verification process from your phone or through Binance TR’s official website. Note that you will also need your mobile phone to perform identity verification from the website.
On the Binance TR website, hover over the “Profile” option at the top right, click on “Identity Verification and Limits” from the drop-down menu, and then click on “Verify.” After this step, you will need to scan the QR code that appears with your phone’s camera and continue the process on your phone.

When you enter the address on your phone or scan the QR code, a screen like the one below will open on your phone. From here, continue by first tapping on the “Identity” option.

After selecting the document type, continue by tapping on the “Upload Front Side” option. After taking a photo of the front side of the document according to the document type you selected, tap on the “Upload Back Side” option and take a photo of the back side of the document and upload it. When taking photos of the front and back sides of your ID card or driver’s license, make sure the images are clear and the information in the photos is easily readable.
Then continue by tapping on the “Selfie” option. At this point, your phone’s front camera will open, and you will need to scan your face. Once the camera opens, make sure your face fills the camera area as much as possible.
