A few minutes ago, many of you generated and uploaded the Ethereum Genesis block, marking the start of Frontier, the first live release of the Ethereum project.
He development team joins me in thanking each and every one of you for your support over the past year and a half. It is amazing to see the progress that has taken place since that humble first engagement on Christmas Eve 2013. The vision of a censorship-proof ‘world computer’ that anyone can program, paying exclusively for what you use and nothing else, is now a reality.
Many of you will want to get started right away. Please take a look at our new website for instructions on how to install and run the clients. If you have problems, the first port of call should be our forums. For more detailed information on what’s included in this release, please see my previous blog post.
To celebrate the launch, we leave you with this new introduction video to our project. We hope you enjoy it, and can’t wait to see what you’ll build on Ethereum!
