As Wikipedia says "Originally formed as a joke .." but it's out there and you can buy and sell it. I wouldn't touch it with a bargepole, but it exists and people are using it as a currency, crazy as it seems.

It's a "joke" cryptocurrency. I don't think it should be in the main dictionary. It's been in the news a lot recently because the price spiked after Elon Musk started tweeting about it.
I wouldn't object to moving イーサリアム as well but it has the second-largest market cap after Bitcoin so there's a case for keeping it here.
Bitcoin is what started it all so it's definitely worth having ビットコイン in JMdict.

And ビットコイン?
Odd as it appears, it seems to be a real thing, insofar as any cryptocurrency is real.

If that's the case, イーサリアム should probably go too.

I think this should go in the names dictionary. Would probably need to be [unclass].
