Vitalik Buterin is the co-founder of Ethereum. At the age of nineteen, Vitalik Buterin proposed the Ethereum protocol in his famous 2013 whitepaperwhitepaper to create a general-purpose, next-generation blockchain platform to support decentralized applications and smart contracts. Buterin had previously contributed to the Bitcoin developer community and found limitations to the Bitcoin scripting language, including lack of Turing-completeness, value-blindness, lack of state, and blockchain-blindness. Ethereum was formally announced at the January 2014 North American Bitcoin Conference in Miami, Florida. That same year, Buterin was awarded a two-year, $100,000 Thiel Fellowship to begin working on the Ethereum platform. Ethereum became the first smart contract platform in the world when it launched in July 2015.
Vitalik Buterin co-founded Bitcoin ManagzieMagazine with Mihai Alisie in 2011.Vitalik Buterin became interested in Bitcoin but could not afford to buy it and did not have the equipment to mine it. He instead found someone willing to pay him 5 Bitcoins per blog post he wrote. Mihai Alisie, from Romania, saw the blog posts and the two started corresponding.

They published their first issue in May 2012. Soon after the magazine was founded, it was acquired that same year in December 2012 by Coin Publishing LLC. Coin Publishing LLC was a new Florida-based entity that took over the full operations of Bitcoin Magazine, purchasing the assets and contracts from Bittalk Media Ltd for an undisclosed sum of cash plus Bitcoins.

He made his first donation in 2017, giving more than $750,000 in ETH to the Machine Intelligence Research Institute, an organization promoting the development of safer artificial intelligence. In April 2022, he donated $5 million in ETH to Ukraine, giving half to Aid for Ukraine and half to Unchain Fund. In May 2021, Buterin donated over $1 billion in ETH and SHIB combined to India for COVID-19 relief. Additionally, Buterin has donated over $54 million in ETH to Givewell, a non-profit organization that evaluates the effectiveness of charities, and approximately $336 million worth of ELON to the Methuselah Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to tissue engineering and making "90 the new 50 by 2030."

Ethereum encountered a large problem in its design and implementation in thatbecause it required massive amounts of energy due to for its "proof of workproof-of-work" consensus mechanism. With proof of workproof-of-work, crypto miners verify transactions by generating matching computer codes, which requires a large amount of computing power. At one point, a single Ethereum transaction used about as much energy as the average U.S. household consumes in a week.
Buterin realized the issue and suggested the Ethereum network move from a proof-of-work system to proof of stakeproof-of-stake where network validators “stake” the platform’s native token ETH to secure their votes on which blocks get added to the underlying blockchain. The change to proof of stakeproof-of-stake was part of the Ethereum merge completed in September 2022 which decreased the network’s power consumption by 99%, from 112 terawatts per hour annually (TWh/yr) to 0.01 (TWh/yr).

Android is the leading mobile OS worldwide with a global market share of 71.85% as of 2022. However, in the United States, this market share is only 44.43%, according to a Statcounter report.
Android runs on both widely deployed cellular standards, GSM/HSDPA and CDMA/EV-DO, and supports Wi-Fi, bluetoothBluetooth, GPS, SMS and MMS messaging, autocorrect, video and still digital cameras, accelerometers, accelerated 3D graphics, and multitasking applications.
In October 2003, Android, Inc. was founded in Palo Alto by Rich Miner, Nick Sears, Chris White, and Andy Rubin. The company originally worked to develop an operating system for digital camerasdigital cameras but changed directions. In 2005, Google acquired Android, Inc. and its key employees for approximately $50 million. They released the first public beta version, Android 1.0, in November 2007. In 2008, HTC Dream became the first smartphone to use the Android operating system, but it received some criticism for its physical keyboard and no touchscreen like the new iPhone that was released the year before.
In April 2009, Google released Android 1.5, "Cupcake", which introduced both a virtual keyboard and its dessert-themed naming scheme. Around the time Android 4.4 "KitKat" was released, Google released an official statement to explain the naming: "Since these devices make our lives so sweet, each Android version is named after a dessert." However in 2019, Google stopped using dessert -themesdessert-themed names with Android 10.
Google employee Irina Blok made the original Android logo, with the directionguidance to make it look like a robot. She stated that one of her inspirations for the design was the familiar restroom logos representing “Men” and “Women.” Google made the logo open source as well, allowing others to modify and use it. Over the years, the logo has changed with a major revision in 2019 with the release of Android 10.
