This technology has the power to replace trusted third parties with trusted blockchain networks. Bitcoin was the birth of blockchain technology and has shown the world a new peer-to-peer payment system without needing intermediaries. You could say that Bitcoin was the first generation of blockchain technology. However, Ethereum took this innovative technology to the next level—you could call it blockchain generation two—where you can write decentralized applications using smart contracts. Solidity is the most widely used and popular language for writing smart contracts for decentralized applications. ...
