Abstract

Blockchain tabanlı akıllı sözleşmeler, çeşitli ticari faaliyetleri otomatikleştirebilen kendi kendine çalışan bilgisayar programlarıdır. Şu anda, bu merkezi olmayan uygulamaların çoğu Polkadot, Cardano ve Ethereum gibi akıllı sözleşme platformları kullanılarak geliştirilmektedir. Bu makale, mevcut teknolojik gelişmeleri ve gelecekteki olası uygulamaları analiz etmenin yanı sıra, akıllı sözleşme platformlarının tarihsel bir incelemesini sunar. Çalışma, blockchain tabanlı uygulamaları desteklemek ve merkezi olmayan finansı (DeFi) etkinleştirmek için akıllı sözleşme platformlarının önemini vurguluyor. Ayrıca, katman-2 ölçeklendirme çözümlerinin ortaya çıkışına, değiştirilemez tokenlerin (NFT'ler) tanıtımına ve farklı akıllı sözleşme platformları arasında artan birlikte çalışabilirlik ihtiyacına bakar. Makale ayrıca çok zincirli akıllı sözleşmelerin potansiyeline, kuantum hesaplamanın etkilerine, AI ve ML teknolojilerinin akıllı sözleşme platformlarıyla entegrasyonuna ve akıllı sözleşme platformlarının merkezi olmayan özerk kuruluşları (DAO'lar) destekleme potansiyeline de bakıyor. Akıllı sözleşme platformlarını genişletmenin zorlukları, akıllı sözleşmelerin oluşturulmasında tekdüzelik gerekliliği ve akıllı sözleşme platformlarının sağlık, emlak ve tedarik zinciri yönetimi gibi sektörlerde devrim yaratma potansiyeli de ele alınmaktadır. Rapor, akıllı sözleşme platformlarında devam eden yenilik ve geliştirmenin, sona yaklaşırken blok zincir ekosisteminin genişletilmesi için önemini vurgulamaktadır.

THE EVOLUTION OF SMART CONTRACT PLATFORMS: A LOOK AT CURRENT TRENDS AND FUTURE DIRECTIONS

Abstract

Blockchain-based smart contracts are self-running computer programs that can automate a variety of commercial activities. Currently, the majority of these decentralized applications are developed using smart contract platforms like Polkadot, Cardano, and Ethereum. In addition to analyzing current technology developments and prospective future applications, this article provides a historical review of smart contract platforms. The study emphasizes the significance of smart contract platforms for supporting blockchain-based applications and enabling decentralized finance (DeFi). It also looks at the emergence of layer-2 scaling solutions, the introduction of non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and the growing need of interoperability among different smart contract platforms. The article also looks at the potential for multi-chain smart contracts, the effects of quantum computing, the integration of AI and ML technologies with smart contract platforms, and the potential for smart contract platforms to support decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs). The difficulties of expanding smart contract platforms, the requirement for uniformity in the creation of smart contracts, and the potential for smart contract platforms to revolutionize sectors like healthcare, real estate, and supply chain management are also covered. The paper emphasizes the significance of ongoing innovation and development in smart contract platforms for the expansion of the blockchain ecosystem as it draws to a close.
