Before you dive into the practical details and instructions for deploying a smart contract, it’s helpful to gain a high-level understanding of distributed ledger technology and how public, permissionless systems operate in a way that is reliable and safe. My goal in this chapter is to present concepts that broadly pertain across smart-contract platforms, using the specifics of Ethereum to illustrate those concepts.

Absorbing the information in this chapter is not a necessary prerequisite to implementing the step-by-step guides provided in later chapters, but it will help you understand the ecosystem on which you’ll build your DeFi protocols.

The native token to a public blockchain serves this critical governance function that allows a decentralized and autonomous network to collectively operate without a leader. For one thing, the native token incentivizes community members to provide the computing power that ensures the trustless safety of the permissionless system. Native tokens are used to pay for transactions on the platform, which are used to compensate validators. For instance, validators on Bitcoin earn a mining reward along with transaction fees paid in bitcoins (BTC).
