The Growing Risk of Malicious Browser Extensions
Socket researchers uncover how browser extensions in trusted stores are used to hijack sessions, redirect traffic, and manipulate user behavior.
CashScript is a high-level programming language for smart contracts on Bitcoin Cash. It offers a strong abstraction layer over Bitcoin Cash' native virtual machine, Bitcoin Script. Its syntax is based on Ethereum's smart contract language Solidity, but its functionality is very different since smart contracts on Bitcoin Cash differ greatly from smart contracts on Ethereum. For a detailed comparison of them, refer to the blog post Smart Contracts on Ethereum, Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash.
See the GitHub repository and the CashScript website for full documentation and usage examples.
CashScript is a high-level language that allows you to write Bitcoin Cash smart contracts in a straightforward and familiar way. Its syntax is inspired by Ethereum's Solidity language, but its functionality is different since the underlying systems have very different fundamentals. See the language documentation for a full reference of the language.
CashScript features a compiler as a standalone command line tool, called cashc
. It can be installed through npm and used to compile .cash
files into .json
(or .ts
)artifact files. These artifact files can be imported into the CashScript TypeScript SDK (or other SDKs in the future). The cashc
NPM package can also be imported inside JavaScript files to compile .cash
files without using the command line tool.
npm install -g cashc
Usage: cashc [options] [source_file]
Options:
-V, --version Output the version number.
-o, --output <path> Specify a file to output the generated artifact.
-h, --hex Compile the contract to hex format rather than a full artifact.
-A, --asm Compile the contract to ASM format rather than a full artifact.
-c, --opcount Display the number of opcodes in the compiled bytecode.
-s, --size Display the size in bytes of the compiled bytecode.
-f, --format <format> Specify the format of the output. (choices: "json", "ts", default: "json")
-?, --help Display help
