What do you think smart contracts are?

• leifg 6y ago
  Well according to this article it's code that is executed once a requirement is met. If the requirement is trivial like in the Bitcoin blockchain, sure, maybe there is some value in it. But no one in the comments is talking about that. What everyone here seems to be talking about is non-trivial code that is supposed to enforce policies. Or at least that's what I'm asking about. Where is the value in that?

    Uniswap facilitates trading through smart contracts without a trusted middleman or custodian. That is an example of useful smart contracts.

      I think they are confused about what a smart contract is

        It seems like you're the only one who actually knows what a smart contract is... As smart contracts are supposedly open source, it will probably trivial for you to link to a code snippet that qualifies as a smart contract. Can you do that? Otherwise, stop trolling.
