Smart Contract
Self-executing code stored on a blockchain that automatically enforces the terms of an agreement when predefined conditions are met. Smart contracts power DeFi protocols, NFT mints, DAOs, and token standards. They run exactly as programmed, with no downtime or third-party interference.
