Before we discuss Ethereum's new programming language, it's important to have a basic understanding of what smart contracts are, how they are carried out, and why they are significant.

So, for those that are new to smart contracts (and as a review for smart contract veterans), here's a quick, abbreviated, hyper-lesson.

# 
>A smart contract is a computer protocol intended to digitally facilitate, verify, or enforce the negotiation or performance of a contract. Smart contracts allow the performance of credible transactions without third parties. These transactions are trackable and irreversible.
>
>Smart contracts were first proposed by Nick Szabo, who coined the term, in 1994.
>
>Proponents of smart contracts claim that many kinds of contractual clauses may be made partially or fully self-executing, self-enforcing, or both.
>
>The aim of smart contracts is to provide security that is superior to traditional contract law and to reduce other transaction costs associated with contracting. Various cryptocurrencies have implemented types of smart contracts.

#  <center>Viper - Ethereum's New Smart Contract Language</center>
# 
<center>![Eth Viper.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmaVdxbv7tX3eWwcnzkWi1PfoymT2yLhCBwpG7nZkWCNHM/Eth%20Viper.jpg)</center><center>[Source](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmaVdxbv7tX3eWwcnzkWi1PfoymT2yLhCBwpG7nZkWCNHM/Eth%20Viper.jp) [(Base Source #1)](https://www.ccn.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/viper-web.jpg) [(Base Source #2)](https://qph.fs.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-ba1518a1573e420415c9dadb0f7876dd)</center>
# 
Solidity is currently the main smart contract programming language of Ethereum. It was developed by Gavin Wood, Christian Reitwiessner, Alex Beregszaszi, Yoichi Hirai and several former Ethereum core contributors to enable writing smart contracts on blockchain platforms like Ethereum.

However, Solidity smart contracts are difficult to audit because of their permissive complexity.

Viper was created for the sole purpose of readability and simplicity. It was modeled after the highly popular Python programming language; using much of the same syntax, objects, libraries, etc.

This means that the huge base of Python users can feel right at home developing smart contracts with Viper.

# 
Similar to Solidity, Viper is a general-purpose programming language that compiles down to EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) bytecode.

But unlike Solidity, Viper greatly simplifies smart contract development to create easier-to-understand Smart Contracts which are much more transparent and is far less vulnerable to attack (less entry points for  attackers).

The trade-off for Viper's ease of use is the sacrificing of versatility. It is minimalistic, lacks flexibility, and small in scope. It is meant for basic use cases only (e.g., two-party smart contracts).

In other words, Viper can’t handle the complexity of full-fledged DApps.

Let me state this again:

***Viper is not suitable for DApp development. DApps still require coding in Solidity.***

# <center>Warding Off an Exodus and Attracting More Developers</center>

# 
In the beginning, Ethereum was the only game in town, the lone platform for launching smart contracts.

This meant that, instead of coding in a language that was more familiar and comfortable for them to use, smart contract developers were forced to learn and use Ethereum's Solidity.

Such edicts routinely leave a bad taste in the mouths of most programmers who are, by and large, made up of independent, freedom minded individuals.

And history shows that it leads to the search for alternatives to supplant "The Man" just out of sheer rebellion (a la the early cyberpunks and of course, Sataoshi Nakamoto).

Then NEO came along with its main selling point of being a multiple language supporting smart contract platform.

# 
This freed developers from the bondage of Solidity.
# 
## <center>...Then NEO sayeth, "Let My People Go!"</center>

# 
Ethereum hopes Viper can be a solution for multiple issues.

It's a response to the longstanding complaints surrounding Solidity's  complexity and proprietary nature.

It may prevent an exodus of current smart contract developers.

And it increases the chance of attracting new developers to the Ethereum platform - especially those familiar with Python.

# 
Since Viper has the backing of all the top brass at Ethereum and its community, there's no doubt in my mind that a blitzkrieg of pro-Viper crypto articles are soon to be forthcoming.

And all them will be pitching Viper's "Python-like simplicity and EVM compatibility".

# 
Who knows?

Viper might just do the trick and bolster Ethereum's retention and recruitment of smart contract developers.

As mentioned earlier, in response to Ethereum's Solidity requirement, NEO appeared on the scene.

Nowadays, developers can choose from a growing group of smart contract platforms.

In addition to NEO, here's a few - in no particular order - of the rival platforms threatening  Ethereum's supremacy in the smart contract platform space:

Make no mistake. Ethereum still reigns supreme in the smart contract platform space.

And there will always be hacker-turned-wannabe smart contract developers who will voluntarily enter the hallowed gates of the Ethereum Kingdom - only to realize that it's not the wonderland they had imagined.

The reality of Solidity and GAS fees force many of them to abandon their dreams of launching their DApps.
# 
## But...IMHO, cracks are beginning to form on Ethereum's glass palace.

# 
The initial draconian "Solidity Decree" was bad juju from the beginning. Signs of impending revolt may have been neglected too long. 

Briefcase in hand, disillusioned developers are jumping ship.

# 
And even the allure of Viper may not be enough to persuade fresh, new smart contract programmers into developing smart contracts for deployment on the Ethereum platform.

About the Author

Believing that school was too boring, he dropped out of High School early; only to earn an AA, BS and MBA in less than 4 years much later in life – while working full-time as a Navy/Marine Corps Medic.

In spite of a fear of heights and deep water, he performed high altitude, free-fall parachute jumps and hazardous diving ops in deep, open ocean water.

# 
After 24 years of active duty, he retired in Asia.

Since then, he's been a full-time, single papa and actively pursuing his varied passions (Writing, Disruptive Technology, Computer Science and Cryptocurrency - plus more hobbies too boring or bizarre for most folk).

He lives on an island paradise with his teenage daughter, longtime girlfriend and three dogs.
