ETH

  1. (international standards) Unofficial non-ISO 4217 currency code for the cryptocurrency Ether.
    • 2020 July 11, Camila Russo, “Sale of the Century: The Inside Story of Ethereum's 2014 Premine”, in CoinDesk[1], archived from the original on 17 June 2024:
      The sale documents said that once the Ethereum blockchain launched and the premined ether was issued, miners would generate new ether initially at an annual rate of 26% of the amount of ether issued in the crowdsale – the issuance rate isn’t fixed and is capped at 18 million ETH minted per year.
Usage notes
[edit]

This code conflicts with the currency coding standardization rules in ISO 4217, as currency codes beginning with ET are reserved for Ethiopia, due to that being its ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code.
