An automated transaction is a digital exchange of assets or data executed without direct human intervention. These operations are typically pre-programmed using smart contracts on a blockchain, triggering based on predefined conditions being met. They significantly enhance efficiency and reduce the need for intermediaries in digital asset transfers and financial agreements. This capability underpins many decentralized finance applications and protocols, allowing for trustless execution.
Context
