- The EVM is a virtual machine that runs the smart contracts on the Ethereum Network. The EVM is a security layer for the network that makes sure that no malicious activity is taking place within the smart contract. Acts like a security layer.
- The EVM can read byte-code as solidity
- Solidity is compiled into byte-code which runs thru EVM on the CPU, which then executes the instructions in the smart contract that comes up with results.
- Bitcoin possesses non-turing complete programming language.
- A turing complete programming language is one that can solve any complex problem.

1. What does the EVM do?
- EVM or Ethereum Virtual Machine allows multiple computers to access the data for Ethereum and read the code in the Bytecode language. Each computer that has EVM will cross check the code and compare it with every other computer running EVM to check if it all comes with the same result. If it is all correct and the same, then the transaction would proceed.
2. What is the format of the instructions that the EVM can read?
- Bytecode
3. What is the relationship between the programming language Solidity and Bytecode?
- Solidity is the language that programmers use to write code in a way similar to English and quite as easy as using javascript. This code is now taken into Bytecode and converts them to Bytecode so that the EVM can read it. EVM cannot read Solidity code, it can only read Bytecode.
4. Why canât Bitcoin run the same type of complex programs like Ethereum can?
- Bitcoin canât run the same type of complex programs like Ethereum can because Bitcoin uses âScriptâ and it is NOT Turing Complete, therefore it can only execute simple programs. Ethereum uses âSolidityâ and it is a Turing complete programming language that can execute anything you can think of in the code.
5. What is a Turing Complete programming language?
- A Turing Complete Programming Language is a very versatile and complete programming language. Basically, it can run anything you can possibly think about when executed in the code.

- The EVM interacts with the ethereum network before your cpu does. This is to ensure no malicious smart contracts are running on the ethereum network.
- The EVM reads ethereum byte code
- Solidity is a Turning Complete programming language, and can be compiled into bytecode. This gives Ethereum in theory a programming language that is capable of anything.
- Bitcoin does not support Turning Complete programming languages. They specifically chose to limit their code because they wanted Bitcoin to only be the digital gold and nothing else.
- A turning Complete programming language is a programming language in which all possible maths are possible in the programming language. Therefore if the math is possible, then the abstract idea can be possible. This is why it is said that Turning Complete programming languages are capable of anything theoretically. The only limitations are physical limitations like energy, money, the human mind, etc.

3. What is the relationship between the programming language Solidity and Bytecode?
- Solidity is the language used to code smart contracts. EVM can only read Bytecode and not Solidity. Solidity needs to be compiled into Bytecode before it can be used by the EVM.
4. Why canât Bitcoin run the same type of complex programs like Ethereum can?

The EVM acts as a large decentralized computer that is actually made up of thousands of nodes. If the nodes all agree on a transaction, then it will be mined on the block and confirmed.
The EVM reads Bytecode which is compiled from solidity or viper.
Solidity is the language that developers will use write smart contracts. The Solidity smart contract will then be compiled into bytecode, which is the the EVM actually reads.
Bitcoin script is not Turing complete, so the computational abilities of bitcoin are limited.
A Turing complete language means, at leased theoretically, that it can compute any function regardless of how complex it is. In practice, the scalability of a Turing complete language is limited by the capabilities of the computer that runs the language.

EVM will read and execute the smart contract. EVM will look at the instructions in the smart contract that are converted to bytecode by an compiler and tell the CPU to perform a task. This only if the task isnât malicious. Therefore the EVM serves for security.

- We programmme in Solidity and they is converted into Bytecode to provide instructions to the EVM
- Can only do simply programming on Script, not Turing complete as that would allow spamming. Also more complex programming would increase block size as need to be stored on the block chain. BTCâs main role was perceived to be as a medium of exchange
- Designed to allow loops (repeated instructions), programmability, scripting and ability to make any application they want.

Ethereum VM uses a dynamic loop system also refer as Turing Complete; that saves size of the smart contract; Bitcoin in the other hand uses Script; and its simple language ; thus not able to run complex things - What is a Turing Complete programming language?

Smart contract is written in solidity, which has a compiler than compile solidity into bytecode.
Evm then read all the instructions in bytecode.
- Why canât Bitcoin run the same type of complex programs like Ethereum can?
BTC is not turing complete, but ETH is turing complete.
BTC already have some program ability, called script.
Compared to ETH, script is not turing complete, very limited, and has no loops.
Btc developer said they donât want people to do some kind of spam by
writing a lot of loops, which cause network having to go through these a million times.
This will increase blockchain size a lot, and is not good for BTC.
- What is a Turing Complete programming language?
A turing complete language has loops, which tell software to do one thing several times
do this 1000 times.
If the language has no loops, we need to write instructions by hands. Some features cannot do without loops.
A turing complete language allows u to program anything u want.
