How Do They Work?
To better understand how smart contracts work, it is best to give an example: imagine a food vending machine, one of those that you can easily find in airports.
This machine is programmed so that after you enter a certain amount of money and a code, you can get the food or drink you have selected, right?
On the other hand, this machine is also configured to give you money back if you have put in too much and to notify you if the product you have selected is out of stock.
Therefore, this configuration of the machine would be the Smart uk company email list Contract and the parties involved would be the machine and you.
The conditions of this contract would be those we have mentioned: give money, give you food, return money, etc. Actions that should trigger other actions and automatically enforce the contract.
For machine language, this works with a statement called “if… then” in English, which in Spanish means “If… then”, and means that if an action or agreement is fulfilled, then the condition will be met.
Now you might think that the example of vending machines is something that has been around for years and is nothing new, but what is new here is the elimination of the middleman.
With Smart Contracts, the machine itself would notify when it is running out of a product. Therefore, the supplier would not have to monitor whether the machine is stocked.
So: saving money and reducing time, making a process much simpler, is how Smart Contracts work.
While this is just a mini contract for a vending machine, things get a little more complicated when it comes to inheritances, rentals, and other important agreements.
