FAQ
But while a smart contract can be a legally binding agreement, it isn't necessarily always legally binding. A smart contract still has to meet all the legal requirements of a contract, such as intent to form a contract. And these legal requirements might also vary by jurisdiction.
An 'Agreement' is a written document outlining some contractual relationship, an exchange of promises, a performance of some action or grants some right signed by and between one or more parties. In essence, an Agreement is less formal than a contract.
Smart contracts are scripts that automate the actions between two parties. Smart contracts do not contain legal language, terms, or agreements—only code that executes actions when specified conditions are met. "Smart contract" is somewhat of a misnomer—these programs are neither smart nor a contract.
Many proponents of smart contracts have argued that the public nature and immutability of the smart contract means that the legal system is no longer necessary for these transactions. Since “the code is law,” there can be no legal disputes over the terms of the agreement.
How to draft a contract between two parties: A step-by-step checklist Know your parties. Agree on the terms. Set clear boundaries. Spell out the consequences. Specify how you will resolve disputes. Cover confidentiality. Check the legality of the contract. Open it up to negotiation.
With E-contract executions, the code is exclusively in the hands of the third party responsible for it. However, when it comes to smart contracts, all parties involved operate and store the same code because it utilises blockchain technology. Sometimes these codes are publicly available as well.
A smart contract's terms execute automatically, meaning there isn't often a way for someone to breach the terms of the agreement. A smart contract is usually executed instantaneously, making it far more efficient than a traditional one.

Where a smart legal contract is a solely code agreement, one would usually expect executable code to indicate certainty and completeness. But there may be some instances where although the code is executable and provides a certain result, the nature of the legal arrangement is not clear from the code.
Sometimes, these regular contracts require the presence of a third party, like a lawyer or a notary, to attest to their validity. Hence, the main difference between traditional and smart contracts is the necessity of a human third party in the former.
