They are triggered when predetermined conditions are met, and can automate many enterprise processes and tasks. While still emerging and standards continue to evolve, smart contracts are on course to radically transform commerce.  The technology eliminates many middlemen and frictions to accelerate transactions, improve accuracy, sharpen transparency, and increase the velocity of money.   You’ll walk away with a foundational awareness of smart contract principles, and how accountants can use this technology to boost their relevance, value and revenue.
