Smart Contracts

Smart contracts are self-executing contracts with the terms of the agreement directly written into code on a blockchain. They automatically enforce and execute contract terms when predefined conditions are met, without requiring intermediaries. This enables trustless, transparent, and automated transactions in decentralized applications.

Also known as: Smart Contract, Self-executing contracts, Blockchain contracts, Digital contracts, SC

🧊Why learn Smart Contracts?

Developers should learn smart contracts to build decentralized applications (dApps) on blockchain platforms like Ethereum, Solana, or Cardano, enabling use cases such as decentralized finance (DeFi), non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and supply chain automation. They are essential for creating automated, tamper-proof systems that reduce reliance on third parties and enhance security in digital agreements.
