Beyond Solidity: value programmability and the future of "smart contracts"

Ethereum popularised the smart contract and was the primary force behind a highly engaged, high quality community of global developers.

But how secure are smart contracts? Can we trust the code we write? Can we trust the virtual machine the code runs on? Can we be confident that the Ethereum network will execute our smart contract securely and with finality? Can smart contract platforms such as Ethereum meet the demands of tomorrow's internet? An Internet with a trust layer where value can be stored, transferred and programmed on an a distributed network of billions of connected devices?

This meetup will be in "support group" format :)

• Introduction from host
• (Optional) introduction from each participant
• Interactive discussion on the limitations of current-gen smart contracts
• Interactive discussion on next-gen smart contracts
• Q&A

Post-meetup get-together at the "Bleeding Horse" pub (24 Camden Street Upper).
