Hedera Hashgraph Announces Mainnet Launch of EVM-Compatible Smart Contracts 2.0
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.
How to Deploy Smart Contracts on Hedera – Part 1: A Simple Getter and Setter Contract
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.
Introduction to Solidity smart contracts
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 2.0 now on the Hedera testnet
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.
How to Look Up Transaction History on Hedera Using Mirror Nodes – Back to the Basics
With the high number of transactions that the Hedera Network is able to process every second, keeping this transaction history in all the network nodes for all time would eventually turn those nodes into massive data centers. Mirror nodes help address that issue by separating the consensus operations and the record keeping. In this article you will learn about mirror nodes and how to use them for your applications.
How to Start Developing on Hedera: Back to the Basics
In this blog post, you will learn how you can start developing on the Hedera network today. After reading this article you will have everything you need to start developing, understand the essentials to begin, and know where to get help.
Hashgraph Chess
In this article, we hear from community member John Conway on his experience building a Chess Application on the Hedera Consensus service. John goes into the tech stack he used, the development process, and what he learned.
Get started with the Hedera Token Service – Part 3: How to Pause, Freeze, Wipe, and Delete NFTs
Learn how to use HTS capabilities that help you manage your tokens. More specifically, you will see how to pause a token, freeze an account, wipe a token, and delete a token.
Get Started with the Hedera Token Service – Part 2: KYC, Update, and Scheduled Transactions
Learn how to take advantage of the flexibility you get when you create and configure your tokens with HTS. More specifically, you will enable and disable a KYC flag for a token, update token properties, and schedule transactions (like a token transfer).
Get Started with the Hedera Token Service – Part 1: How to Mint NFTs
Hedera Token Service (HTS) enables you to configure, mint, and manage tokens on the Hedera network without the need to set up and deploy a smart contract. Tokens are as fast, fair, and secure as hbar and cost a fraction of 1¢ USD to transfer. Let’s look at some of the functionality available to you with HTS.
