With the availability of Smart Contracts 2.0, the Hedera ecosystem is choosing to invest in the Ethereum Virtual Machine and Solidity. We're making contributions to the open source Hyperledger Besu project alongside companies like Consensys and Splunk.

SheHacks 6 is a collegiate hackathon that provides opportunities to work in teams to create a project for women by women. The CodeJAM team was inspired to create a platform which would entice younger girls to be interested in the STEM field, especially programming. Thus, CodeJAM was born, an innovative Candy-Crush like game which allows you to learn a programming language in a fun and intuitive way!

Dallas, TX, February 3, 2022 7 AM EST - The HBAR Foundation and global video game publisher Ubisoft today announced a partnership focused on the rapidly expanding ecosystem at the intersection of distributed ledger technology and gaming, with an initiative that supports the development, growth and launch of next-generation gaming on the Hedera network.

Dallas, TX - Feb 3, 2022 - Hedera Hashgraph, the most used, sustainable, enterprise-grade public network for the decentralized economy, today announced a significant upgrade through the mainnet launch of the Hedera Smart Contracts 2.0.

DALLAS, TX — January 31st, 2022 – Tech Titans, the largest technology trade organization in Texas, has named Mance Harmon and Dr. Leemon Baird, both Co-founders of Hedera Hashgraph, as the winners of the ‘Emerging Company CEO’ and ‘Technology Inventor’ award categories respectively, in the 21st Annual Tech Titans Awards.

In Part 1, you learned how to write a getter-setter smart contract in Solidity and deploy it on the Hedera network. Now let’s write and deploy a Solidity smart contract that integrates with the Hedera Token Service (HTS). Whether you’re new to smart contract development or migrating from another smart contract platform, use Hedera to develop and deploy fast, low-cost, and carbon-negative smart contracts.

The Hedera Smart Contract Service enables you to build decentralized applications and protocols that scale with Solidity smart contracts. Recent updates to this service include Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) upgrades, database architecture modifications, and support for Hedera Token Service. Whether you’re new to smart contract development or migrating from another smart contract platform, use Hedera to develop and deploy fast, low-cost, and carbon-negative smart contracts. In this article you will learn how to write a getter-setter smart contract in Solidity and deploy it on the Hedera network.

Solidity is the world's most popular way to write smart contracts. Hedera Smart Contracts 2.0 is a more scalable way to run smart contracts on the Hedera network. Understand the basics of Solidity and the Ethereum Virtual Machine.

Smart contracts play a critical role in building the trust layer of the internet. Used to manage autonomous logic that doesn’t rely on a centralized intermediary, server, or custom governance model, smart contracts can power core infrastructure like decentralized finance. While the Hedera Smart Contract Service is EVM compatible and runs Solidity, with the availability of Smart Contracts 2.0 on the Hedera testnet it now does so with a few added bonuses as only Hedera and the soon to be open-sourced hashgraph can.
