- NEM (XEM) to overtake Ethereum as the world’s best smart contract platform
- NEM (XEM) is set to be the world’s most secure, scalable and eventually most popular smart contract platform in the world. The statement seems far-fetched given the dominance Ethereum currently shows in the field. However, the recent announcement by NEM development team on the NEM Catapult (Mijin V.2) blockchain may…

- Truffle adds the contract function, which makes sure that your contracts are redeployed, and provides access to the test accounts that are provided by a tool like Ganache.
- This creates a basic HelloErc20.sol contract file: – Lets run the test again and see what happens.
- According to the Truffle documentation: – Migrations are JavaScript files that help you deploy contracts to the Ethereum network.
- js in your projects migrations folder and add the following: – Now that weve told Truffle to migration our new Contract, we need to import a reference to that Contract in our test.
- A big part of what Truffle is doing is providing a way for you to interact with your Solidity Contracts via JavaScript.
@nraychaudhuri: If you are getting into Smart contract development. This is a great blog series by @folkengine https://t.co/3fquqNqzD3
- So how exactly is NEM aiming to out-compete Ethereum as the top smart contract blockchain?
- How then will the Catapult overpower Ethereum to be the go-to smart contract blockchain to build and develop decentralized apps (dApps)?
- These are the three unique features of the NEM Catapult that will change how we use smart contract technology on blockchains.
- Once the NEM Catapult beta testing is completed it will be available to all users in the world, providing a far much superior network to Ethereum.
- So hold on to your coins because its only a matter of time before NEM hits $1 and replace Ethereum as the worlds most popular smart contracts platform.
@NEMofficial: #NEM Catapult (mijin V.2) blockchain may have all the right ingredient for success.https://t.co/qSKyEwdQpC https://t.co/I6OHy0H2w3
- Ethereum is considered to be the most widely-used smart-contracts platform, although it has some serious problems.
- Anyway, it means that in order to overtake Ethereum network any other platform will have to grow by at least 1000% percent per year which is not an easy task.
- Another problem is that Ethereum smart-contracts are still plagued by some security issues that could be a big turnoff for many larger companies seeking to eventually embrace the technology.
- These problems provide other platforms such as NEO, EOS, ADA and IOTA to compete with the Ethereum network.
- NEOs focus on faster transaction speed makes it a capable rival to Ethereum network.
