What is Ethereum?

Ethereum is an open-source blockchain network on which software can be built and run. Ethereum (ETH) is the second-largest cryptocurrency after Bitcoin (BTC), and also serves as the resolution layer for popular ERC-20 assets like USDT (Tether), USDC and many others to settle transactions. 

You can create an Ethereum wallet from anywhere, at any time, and explore a world of apps or build your own, and do so without trusting a central authority that could change the rules or restrict your access.

Why is Paxful adding ETH support?

Despite being built differently from and solving for different challenges than Bitcoin, Ethereum has grown into a reliable, fast, and highly scalable platform for the movement of money globally. 

It’s also instrumental in the emergence of a broad decentralized finance ecosystem we admire – which gave us stablecoins like USDT and USDC much of the Global South relies on.

Because ETH has such deep global liquidity to support the many jobs for which our users rely on Paxful; because it underpins a decentralized global financial system with values that align with our values; and because our users benefit from the speed, savings, and business opportunities more quality assets create on our marketplace, we’ve listened to our users & are permanently welcoming ETH back to Paxful, alongside the usual BTC, USDT and USDC markets you already know and trust.

We’re dedicated to growing global financial access, and we’re proud to offer Ethereum as another way for you to earn more through arbitrage, explore new markets, or engage in global trade.

How do I buy, sell, or trade ETH on Paxful?

ETH can be traded on the Paxful marketplace just like BTC, USDT, and USDC with over 450 payment methods. Click here to buy ETH on Paxful, or here to sell your ETH.
