Nick Szabo is a computer scientist, legal scholar[citation needed] and cryptographer known for his research in digital contracts and digital currency. He graduated from the University of Washington in 1989 with a degree in computer science.[1] He holds an honorary professorship at the Universidad Francisco Marroquín.[2] The phrase and concept of "smart contracts" was developed by Szabo with the goal of bringing what he calls the "highly evolved" practices of contract law and practice to the design of electronic commerce protocols between strangers on the Internet.[3][4] Smart contracts are a major feature of cryptocurrency[5] and the programming language E. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nick_Szabo
