Smart Contracts To Be Called As “Smart Accounts” On Waves Platform

The  Waves Platform reported their progress of the implementation of the smart contract exactly, via Twitter exactly 2 weeks ago. Interestingly the team has dubbed their smart contracts as smart accounts. Here’s what the Tweet stated:

Smart Accounts are non-Turing complete smart contracts: they allow the execution of code on the blockchain, but with deliberate limitations on functionality to avoid unwanted usage scenarios and to increase the reliability of the system.

We are deliberately not going to provide users with the ability to write functions, recursions, and loops of indefinite nesting. We have explained before that we avoid constructions whose complexity cannot be predicted in advance, and that cannot be executed in a definite number of steps. That is also the reason why we have no collections or ‘for each’ constructions.

According to a blog on their website, the Waves team explains that the  Smart Accounts will provide the most popular and in-demand features such as:

• Multi-signature wallets – a wallet that can be controlled by one person alone. The required parties must provide their private keys simultaneously, in order to proceed with the transaction.
• Atomic swaps – trustless exchange will be offered for cryptocurrencies hosted on different blockchains
• Token Freezing –  a feature that will prevent the buyers from selling or transferring tokens out of their address for a certain amount of time
• Whitelist voting – organizing a pole with any type of vote, that will only allow participants from a pre-configured list of people/accounts
• Data Oracles – An Oracle is an application that connects the blockchain to an external data source
