Blockchain Ethereum can be considered a living computer entity because the number of nodes fluctuates continuously. Even though the number of nodes depends on the number of people making their computers available to run the Ethereum network.

One of the particularities of Ethereum is that there are no less than 8 programming languages for coding decentralized applications, or smart contracts. This profusion of implementation makes sure that the protocol is virtuous. This is why Ethereum is so successful because it provides the peer-to-peer network infrastructure, as well as the tools to develop its own Blockchain-based application.
