๐น Smart Contracts & Protocols
๐น Smart Contracts
Smart contracts are self-executing programs stored on the blockchain. They run automatically when predefined conditions are met, without the need for intermediaries.
✅ Key Features:
Automation: Executes agreements without manual intervention.
Transparency: Code and execution are visible on the blockchain.
Security: Tamper-proof once deployed.
Trustless: Removes the need for a central authority.
๐ก Example:
On Ethereum, a smart contract could automatically release funds from a buyer to a seller once a product delivery is confirmed.
๐น Protocols
Protocols in blockchain are rules and standards that govern how data is shared, validated, and agreed upon across the network.
✅ Key Roles:
Consensus Mechanism: Ensures all participants agree on the state of the blockchain (e.g., Proof of Work, Proof of Stake).
Interoperability: Defines how different blockchains or applications can interact.
Security & Privacy: Protects data and transactions from fraud or tampering.
๐ก Examples of Blockchain Protocols:
Ethereum – supports smart contracts and decentralized apps.
Bitcoin – protocol for peer-to-peer payments.
Polkadot – protocol for cross-chain interoperability.
Uniswap – protocol for decentralized token swaps.
✅ In short:
Smart contracts = Applications (code that runs on blockchain).
Protocols = Rules/Infrastructure (framework that enables smart contracts & transactions).
