Ethereum is one of the oldest public blockchains in existence. It was the first to implement "Smart Contracts" that allow blockchains to be more than a currency. Ethereum is also one of the least energy-intensive blockchains, users gurantee the integrity of the network without using resource intensive computation. Our process permanently encrypts obituary details into one of these smart contracts. You to decide what is public and what stays private; like a family mausoleum in a cemetery - visitors can see who is being remembered but only relatives can enter. Eternity Now memorials can also be configured to allow key holders to interact with and maintain these memorials - leaving tokens or making tributes. In order to write data to the ethereum blockchain users must pay to use the network. These "gas fees" are processed using a token / currency called Ether. Currently, a browser wallet is necessary to use Ether. We are developing new ways to interact with our service that will be available in version 1.0.
