Abstract

Blockchain is a simple and powerful platform for creating and deploying smart contracts .Its main aim is to remove the barriers in the deployment of blockchain especially for the financial sector. It provides the privacy and control required by them. It is called as smart contract because these are self-executable piece of codes which will execute when certain pre-defined conditions are satisfied without the need for a third party .These smart contracts are increasing in number day by day as more users are deploying them. In this paper we tried to give an overview of the various smart contract platforms, its features, its advantages and also its disadvantages.
