Turing Complete

Turing Complete is a term used to describe a computational system that can perform any calculation or solve any problem, given enough time and resources. This concept originates from the Turing Machine, a theoretical device proposed by mathematician Alan Turing. It can simulate any computer algorithm. In the context of cryptocurrencies and blockchain, a Turing Complete blockchain, like Ethereum, can execute complex smart contracts and decentralized applications. These systems can handle loops, conditionals, and other logical operations. This allows developers to create versatile and sophisticated applications on the blockchain, enhancing its functionality beyond simple transactions.
