About
Ethereum (ETH)
Ethereum is a blockchain platform designed to build decentralized applications (dApps) using smart contracts. Ether (ETH), its native cryptocurrency, is the second largest crypto by market cap. It’s used to pay for transaction fees (gas), run dApps, and execute smart contracts. Ether also plays a key role in decentralized finance (DeFi), staking, NFTs, and decentralized exchanges.

Frequently asked questions
-
What is the most effective method for purchasing Ethereum (ETH) with Georgian Lari (GEL)?
The most direct fiat on-ramp involves using a local cryptocurrency exchange or a peer-to-peer (P2P) platform that accepts Georgian Lari bank transfers. These platforms typically require KYC/AML compliance, after which you can deposit GEL to their order book to execute a digital asset purchase for ETH. -
Why is it difficult to find direct GEL/ETH trading pairs on major international cryptocurrency exchanges?
Major exchanges prioritize pairs with high liquidity and trading volume, such as USD/ETH or EUR/ETH. The GEL/ETH pair has a smaller market, leading to lower liquidity. The common workaround is a two-step process: converting GEL to a major fiat currency on one platform, then trading that for ETH on another. -
What types of fees are involved in a GEL to ETH transaction, including Ethereum's network costs?
Expect two main fees: 1) The exchange or P2P platform fee for the GEL deposit and trade execution. 2) The Ethereum network's 'gas fee' if you withdraw your ETH to a personal digital wallet. This gas fee, measured in Gwei, pays for the blockchain transaction and varies based on network congestion. -
After acquiring ETH with GEL, can I use it to interact with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) and dApps?
Yes. Once your ETH is held in a non-custodial wallet, it's your key to the entire Ethereum ecosystem. You can use it to engage with smart contracts on DeFi platforms, mint NFTs, participate in governance, or provide liquidity to dApps running on the EVM. It's the native asset for all on-chain actions. -
What are the key security practices for a secure trading experience from GEL to ETH?
Always use a reputable fiat gateway with strong security protocols and enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA). When executing a P2P trade, verify the counterparty's reputation. For long-term holding, transfer your ETH from the exchange to a personal hardware wallet. Always double-check the recipient ETH wallet address before confirming a withdrawal.
