How Do Smart Contracts Work?

How Do Smart Contracts Work?

Blockchain is one of the hardest things to explain about cryptocurrency and Ethereum's smart contracts can be every bit as confusing. Part of this comes from the fact that the term confusingly describes the base interaction. They are a new interaction that comes with Etherum. A normal contract gives the terms of a relationship is backed by law.

Blockchain, A New Universe Of Decentralised Possibilities

Blockchain, A New Universe Of Decentralised Possibilities

In 2009, a seismic shiver ran through the financial sector. The global financial crisis was more than just a practical disaster. On a psychological, philosophical, and ethical level, it exposed crippling uncertainties within the financial arena. Like a weed in the heart of the garden, the roots of this failure ran frighteningly deep.One of the responses to this has been a shift away from centralised banking and towards technologically driven decentralised networks. Enter Blockchain. Blockchain represents an ideological statement that rejects the central ledger approach, and instead gives power to hundreds of thousands of users, each participating in the transaction approval process. Known as decentralised ledger technology (DLT), Blockchain harnesses technological innovation for financial security, stability, and trust.

THE CRYPTO REGULATION

The Impact of Introducing Virtual Currencies in Malta

The Impact of Introducing Virtual Currencies in Malta

Virtual currencies, also known by the name crypto currencies, are an entirely digital form of money. They are unregulated by any financial authority, instead being entirely under the control of their developers. National and international banks do not oversee the use of virtual currencies, as there is no physical aspect to them, and they are therefore, not considered to be legal tender.Transactions in a virtual currency involve them being shown on an online platform, which is called a BLOCK. The person sending the money must first purchase Bitcoins, on a platform known as an Exchange. The new BLOCK is then broadcast to all the other users of the network, and is added to the current blocks, making a blockchain. This completes the transaction, with no intermediate banks or transfer fees involved.The Exchanges on which Bitcoins are purchased will eventually all be approved and awarded the relevant licences in the appropriate financial jurisdictions. At present, the Bitstamp exchange has had full licensing since 2016, which means it can be used within the European Union. Regarding security, the blockchain is held over thousands of different networks, making it more difficult to hack than the one central system which holds all the details of one bank's customers and accounts.
