9 lessons

Smart contracts are the machinery behind every token, pool, and launchpad you will meet later. This course covers programmable agreements and the EVM, then the specific contracts that matter for the rest of the curriculum: ERC-20 tokens, automated market makers, and how to read a token contract before you trust it.
