Bismuth is touted as the initial Python blockchain platform that enables comprehensive digital utility. Allegedly, Bismuth's modular platform allows the creation of various entities, including basic token issuance and decentralized application (dApp) services. The project is entirely developed in Python, ensuring that all virtual solutions built on the platform are also in the same language. Described as an open-source and unfunded initiative, the Bismuth protocol is maintained by the Bismuth Foundation and a community of Python developers.
