#EVM 101 So, what is a #VirtualMachine?🤔 A Virtual Machine is a virtual computer that runs on the #blockchain and allows #smartcontracts from multiple sources to interact with one and other. You might be wondering🧐 what a #smartcontract is, so let's also quickly cover that. A #smartcontract is simply an agreement🤝, expressed as code, executed on the #blockchain, and the language it uses is blockchain platform-specific. To run smart contracts on different blockchain platforms, we need #VMs to allow smart contracts written in 1⃣ language to run another #blockchain, which saves time⏱️ & costs🤑 compared to rewriting & testing new smart contracts or even learning💡 a new programming language.
