Users can write their smart contracts into the blockchain with the help of Plutus Script. The team calls the script “a purpose-built smart contract development language and execution platform using the functional programming language Haskell.”

The enabling of decentralized application creation will increase the use cases of the Cardano blockchain.

The team Cardano praised their community for helping them achieve this success.

It’s only just the beginning. But this is still a moment for celebration. As a community, we have been on an incredible journey together. Rightly, we should allow ourselves to acknowledge the tremendous efforts made by so many to get here. This will also be a time for reflection on the challenges we’ve collectively overcome.

Cardano was developed by one of the EThreum blockchain developers back in 2017. The platform pledged to compete with ethereum by offering the same set of functionalities. However, it failed to deliver smart contracts up until now.

As Cardano launches smart contract, it has now become capable of rivaling the Ethereum platform in terms of hosting decentralized finance.
