The march of Ethereum seems unstoppable. The asset rose 1,700 percent in value this year and is, after the bitcoin, the most valuable digital currency in the world. The value of one ethereum has risen since the beginning of 2016 from 1 dollar to a little over 17 dollar. The market capitalization (the total amount of coins that go around times the current value) is a little under $1,4 billion. This makes Ethereum the second most valuable digital coin in the world.
