- [Smart Contract EVM: What It Is and How It Works](/smart-contract-evm-what-it-is-and-how-it-works/)  
The EVM is the sandboxed runtime every Ethereum node uses to run smart contracts: bytecode, gas, a Solidity example, real uses and the bugs that drain them.
- [What Is an Atomic Swap? How Cross-Chain HTLC Swaps Work](/atomic-swap/)  
An atomic swap trades coins on two blockchains directly between wallets: hash-locked, time-limited contracts make both transfers happen or neither.

The longest chain in blockchain is the version with the most proof of work, the rule Bitcoin nodes use to resolve forks and settle transaction history.
