Smart contracts and the cost of inflexibility

This inflexibility prevents smart contracts from being amended, novated or terminated which are requirements that are necessary for financial transactions. Smart contracts would require similar provision to be useful as the contractual basis of a financial transaction. The other challenge that smart contracts face is contractual secrecy. As smart contracts are visible by all involved parties in a transaction, the issue of confidentiality (especially related to pricing) would be an issue.

“Smart contracts” are decentralized agreements built in computer code and stored on a blockchain. Proponents imagine a future where commerce takes place exclusively using smart contracts, avoiding the high costs of contract drafting, judicial intervention, opportunistic behavior, and the inherent ambiguities of written language. Although the designing of cost-efficient smart contracts are already analysed in some works [4, 12] the definition of the total cost of a smart contract could help us investigate the impact of the By Jeremy M.

Smart Contracts and Blockchain: How Do They Work? Smart contracts are digital, self-executing agreements that are automated through a series of coded “if/then” statements. Once set into motion, they use their own built-in enforcement mechanisms to carry out the terms of the contract based on the way events are progressing in the real world.

Smart contracts will automate UCC filing renewals, reduce mistakes and fraud, expedite record searches and cut costs. The future of smart contracts Smart contracts are making serious headway in 2017 as a variety of governments and industry players develop ways to use them to improve historically slow, centralized and opaque processes prone to error, hacking and fraud.
