Ethereum Contracts - Coinfest 2015
Ethereum contracts are small pieces of code that can be deployed to the Ethereum blockchain to execute autonomously. They are written in the Solidity language and can store and transfer value and data.

Examples of suitable contracts include tokens, crowdfunding, voting systems, and decentralized autonomous organizations.
