Plutus

Plutus is a programming language developed by the Cardano blockchain project that allows developers to write smart contracts—automatic agreements that execute when certain conditions are met. It’s designed to be secure and reliable, enabling complex, customizable transactions without intermediaries. By integrating with the Cardano network, Plutus facilitates transparent, decentralized applications, ensuring the rules of each contract are enforced automatically. This makes financial and other digital agreements more efficient, trustworthy, and less dependent on third parties, supporting the development of decentralized finance (DeFi) and other innovative blockchain solutions.
