FAQ
Q1: What’s new in Ethereum 2.0?
A1: It introduces PoS, reducing energy use and enabling sharding for scalability.
Q2: How do I start with dApp development?
A2: Use Solidity for contracts and Web3.js for frontend integration.
Q3: What are L2 solutions?
A3: Layer 2 (e.g., rollups) processes transactions off-chain to reduce fees.
Q4: Can I test dApps without real ETH?
A4: Yes! Use testnets like Ropsten or Goerli.
Q5: What’s the role of EVM?
A5: It executes smart contracts consistently across nodes.
Q6: Are NFTs part of Ethereum?
A6: Yes, most NFTs are built on Ethereum’s ERC-721 standard.
