Smart Contracts – ALTCOIN MAGAZINE

Here is how smart contracts works here, let’s suppose you rent an apartment for a week through Airbnb, except this is a version of airbnb that exists on a blockchain in which you can pay in a cryptocurrency. After paying, you receive a digital receipt, as dictated within the code of the smart contract. The smart contract tracks whether you receive the “digital key” or not. If you don’t get this key by the specified date, the smart contract automatically gives you a refund.

Smart contracts drives Automation of an operation, its requires more than one smart contract to complete tasks. Also need an entity called IoT, it assist with information to complete a task.they are programs and known as a cryptocontract.

The goal of this post is to introduce the term Smart Contracts and help with an understanding of this terminology in the world of Blockchain.
