- What does the EVM do : The EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) is a piece of code that interacts between the Smart Contract and the CPU of a node. It in essence reads the contents of the smart contract and executes the process steps and then creates an output based on the input and the instructions contained in the smart contract. Each node runs a copy of the EVM.
- What is the format of the instructions that the EVM can read : The EVM reads the contents / instructions of the smart contract in Bytecode.
- What is the relationship between the programming language Solidity and Bytecode :
Solidity is the programming language that the creator of the smart contract uses to develop the logic on how the contract would be executed and which conditions would mean what in terms of the required output - it is like using C++ for developing a piece of programming language. Bytecode is the output of the Solidity code once compiled so that the EVM can read it and execute it. - Why canât Bitcoin run the same type of complex programs like Ethereum can : Bitcoin was not developed to be a programable asset but rather a storage of value, but I am also likely to deduct that with the utilization of Bitcoin as a blockchain asset, innovation in the blockchain industry created a need and an awareness to develop use cases for programable money and this innovation actually led to the development of Ethereum.
- What is a Turing Complete programming language : A Turing Complete language is a language in which almost any logical transaction can be coded.

- EVM reads byte codes and executes them in an encapsulated program not directly with the computers CPU so that security wonât be an issue.
- Solidity is the programming language that Ethereum uses for smart contracts. A compiler will take the Solidity code and compile it into Bytecode for EVM to then read.
- Bitcoin uses Script language and is unable to do complex code. Bitcoiners didnât want the looping feature of a complete programming language so it uses Script.

What does the EVM do?
EVM stands for Ethereum Virtual Machine. EVM reads the instructions in smart contracts and tell the CPUs across the network to execute them. If all of the nodes reach the same final product, then the network has reached consensus and allows the smart contract to exist in the blockchain. -

What does the EVM do?
The Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) is the runtime environment for Ethereum smart contracts. The runtime environment is where a program or application is executed and is composed of the hardware and software infrastructure that supports the running of a particular software application in real time. It is Turing-complete because Solidity (Ethereum smart contract programming language) is Turing-complete. Every Ethereum node runs on the EVM to maintain consensus across the blockchain. -
What is the format of the instructions that the EVM can read?
Bytcode is the format which EVN can read. Bytecode is also known as portable code or p-code and is a form of non-executable code used by a software interpreter such us EVM.
Bytecode program code is compiled from source code into low-level code designed for a software interpreter. A popular example is Java bytecode, which is compiled from Java source code and can be run on a Java Virtual Machine (JVM)

What is the relationship between the programming language Solidity and Bytecode?
The smart contracts are written in a Turing-Complete programming language (Solidity or Viper) that is then compiled into EVM bytecode (the Compiler - an application - takes the Solidity code and compiles the logic and the instructions from this code into bytecode) that the EVM reads. This means that other programming languages than Solidity can be used to write smart contracts. The EVM only cares about the bytecode and it only executes bytecode. -
Why canât Bitcoin run the same type of complex programs like Ethereum can?
BTC uses a programming language that is not Turing-Complete (it can not solve complex problems) named script.
On the other hand, Ethereum uses Solidity and Viper, programming languages that can be used to solve complex problems. This complex problem-solving capability is the result of an intrinsic feature that all Turing-Complete programming languages have, that allows the programmer to instruct the software to do 1 thing several times (the feature is called a loop). -
