Threaded Solidity (T-Sol)
Venom’s infinitely scalable, asynchronous blockchain is powered by smart contracts. The programming language used for developing smart contracts hosted on Venom is called Threaded Solidity (T-Sol). It is similar to Ethereum’s Solidity programming language and provides developers with a robust language.
T-Sol provides developers with a more controlled and flexible execution flow of their application logic. It is tailor-made to facilitate Venom’s Actor Model and comes with built-in developer functionalities helping builders create dApps and manage smart contracts.
A disadvantage of the Solidity programming language used in EVM blockchains is its lack of support for concurrency. Venom’s T-Sol natively supports concurrency, allowing developers to build smart contracts that can simultaneously perform tasks while waiting for other operations to complete. Thanks to this key feature, creating highly scalable and performant dApps is possible on the Venom blockchain.
Developers familiar with Ethereum’s Solidity benefit from the programming language similarity to T-Sol, providing a seamless experience while adapting to Venom.
