Ethereum is a cryptocurrency on the Ethereum network. Here is a plain-English explainer — and how to accept Ethereum payments on your website.
Ethereum in brief
Ethereum (ETH) settles on the Ethereum network. As a merchant you can accept it directly, without a bank or a card network in the middle, and without a chargeback window.
