## AI overview

A tutorial on using Go to create and test basic Solidity smart contracts for Ethereum. It explains how smart contracts expose APIs and manage mutable storage on a blockchain, then focuses on testing a contract API against a simulated Ethereum node.

## Source excerpt

Introduction I made it my mission in 2022 to learn everything I could about blockchain and as the year ends, I feel like I accomplished my goal. Love it, hate it, or don't want to know nothing about it, I think it's important to push your opinions aside and understand how this technology works. Even with the current collapse of several large crypto companies in 2022, blockchain isn't going to disappear. Bitcoin and Ethereum are here to stay. If anything, this past year has shown how entrenched blockchain has become in the world and in people's lives.
