Smart Transactions

Duration: 00:26:33

Speaker: Vlad Zamfir

Type: Talk

Expertise: Intermediate

Event: Devcon

Date: Oct 2022

Smart Transactions act as if they know how they are being situated and whether they are being treated fairly. With context dependent semantics, uncanny awareness of the future, and mid-execution access to actual and virtual services, smart transactions challenge us to elaborate on Ethereum’s transactional semantics.
