Bitcoin also has a mini VM and scripting language (transactions are verified by "concatenating" the script of an output with the script of an input and running it). One big difference is that Bitcoin's scripting language isn't turing complete (e.g. you can't have loops or recursion) and there are other limitations like a per block limit on expensive operations (signature operations to be precise).
