\u201c'Smart contracts' as a term was coined by Nick Szabo back in 1996 before the idea of a blockchain was even a twinkling in Satoshi\u2019s eye. They had nothing to do with DAOs, or decentralized exchanges or any of these types of constructs that people tend to think of when they hear the term.\u201d\xa0- Shinobi\n\nThrowing out the hype, the shitcoin buzzwords, the DAOs, and all the obscure claims about smart contracts on the various "crypto" platforms out there, and let's get down to the origins and true meaning of the term "smart contract." What does it really mean, and does Bitcoin have smart contracts, or not? A great piece from Shinobi and Bitcoin Magazine today. Not to be missed.\n\nLink to the original articles for more details, further digging and the other incredible work at Bitcoin Magazine:\nhttps://bitcoinmagazine.com/technical/why-bitcoin-smart-contract-platform\n\nFor the best products and services to get you started in Bitcoin, our sponsors are literally a handful of those that I use most in this space:\n\u2022 Get Bitcoin rewards on literally everything you buy with the Fold Card (20% discount)\n\u2022 Buy Bitcoin automatically and painlessly with SwanBitcoin\n\u2022 Keep your Bitcoin keys safe on the secure, open source BitBox02 (5% discount code GUY)\n\u2022 Get tickets to the biggest & most exciting Bitcoin conference in the world!
