Smart contracts are programs that run on the Ethereum blockchain, automating transactions and enforcing agreements without intermediaries. Developers writing secure, audited contracts earn $200k-500k+ annually. DeFi (decentralized finance) has $100B+ TVL; security vulnerabilities cost protocols millions. Time to competency: 8-12 weeks for Solidity developers. Senior practitioners earn 40-60% premium because they prevent catastrophic bugs (reentrancy, integer overflow, logic errors) and architect protocols that move billions.
Smart contracts are programs running on the Ethereum blockchain that automate agreements and transactions without intermediaries. They're written in Solidity, compiled to bytecode, deployed to the blockchain, and execute deterministically (same input = same output, always). A simple example: a token transfer contract. User sends ETH, contract verifies payment, transfers tokens, updates balances. All immutable, transparent, and trustless (no intermediary needed).
