讲座通知：爱沙尼亚塔林理工大学Alex Norta副教授专题讲座

主要内容：In this presentation we give an introduction to Blockchains and Smart Contracts. As concrete use cases we briefly present details about the novel smart-contract system qtum.org that combines in an innovative way Ethereum and Bitcoin functionalities. This combination takes advantage of the respective strengths while it eliminates the weaknesses of both. Additionally, another smart-contract framework termed Agrello uses Qtum for smart-contracts based information- and value-transfer logistics.
