    I just came here after watching a 30-minute video. Needless to say, I got more out of your 4 minute video than the other which I watched several times and STILL came away with ???? "If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough." - Albert Einstein.

    Dear Savjee. Your videos are very informative, enlightening and most importantly very easy to understand. Even a lay man can understand the technology if teacher can be like you.
    Thank you very much for the videos.
    Please do some videos on Decred, EOS, NEO, GAS, Power Ledger. And please do videos on ICOs that are introducing new Technologies. if we understand the technology at ICO level, it is easy for us to decide on worth of it to invest.

    Hello, great video, easy to understand.
    However, I always wondered how can smart contracts could replace things like Airbnb and Uber in the case of a complaint. In those cases, the third party can be the judge. How those situations are handled in smart contracts ?
    Would love to understand this to fully trust the concept of smart contracts.
    Cheers.

    Great video and very well explained too!! One thing that I was a little confused by though is, how doesn't someone make sure that the actual smart contract that someone creates is trustworthy? Would a user need to go in and read the 'terms' (aka code) of the contract to be fully sure what the contract is doing?

    • @hsc587
      @hsc587 2 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Also interested in what mechanisms there are to verify whether the smart contract has been broken or upheld from inputs in real life, like if I fund something on kickstarter ensuring that either you get the product or you get refunded.

    • @oliverslazdins8237
      @oliverslazdins8237 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      ​@@hsc587 Imagine this future scenario, its 2050, You enter a list of shopping items you need for the next week into Your robot, this information gets stored on a blockchain through a smart contract, so the robot goes through the city during the day visiting various vendors collecting the items and paying for them with your money/crypto. The vendors see the smart contract existing on the decentralized blockchain, so they hand out the merchandise and receive an immediate payment, so the contract gets safely and transparently executed.

    Smart contracts are awesome. Ethereum, NEO and now Cardano - I'm loving the competition and innovation in this field! Smaller companies like PolicyPal Network and Propy are also doing a great job in bringing in smart contracts to increase efficiency and lower cost in their respective industry (insurance & real estate). Can't wait for more innovation in this area :)

    Okay. First of all thanks for this great video.
    However I have a question about smart contract which works like people who judge in business.
    When we are doing a business, things happening are not just simple as the smart contract do.
    For examples, what if the reason for refunding is so ambiguous that just smart contract cannot judge ?
    In that case human must engage right ?
    So my question is even though almost every business change their base technology to blockchain, they cannot cut down expenses right ?
