Version 1.0 of Ethereum aka Frontier was released on July 30th 2015! Development continues towards the versions named Homestead, Metropolis and Serenity (v1.1). Frontier is aimed at exchangers and miners. Homestead is aiming for Ðapps developers, while Metropolis is aiming for end users with the release of the Mist browser. Serenity is meant to move from consensus through Proof-of-Work to Proof-of-Stake.
