Ether is the native currency of the Ethereum network. Ether is created during Crypto Mining, a process which verifies transactions on the Ethereum blockchain network. Ether does not have a hard-cap limit on the number of tokens like Bitcoin. Also unlike Bitcoin, Ethereum switched to a proof-of-stake consensus in 2022. This means that to create new Ether, users can stake their Ether to potentially receive staking rewards. This mechanism uses much less energy and so it better for the planet.
