Mastering ABI Encoding for Solidity and Ethereum (Full Examples Included)

To become a good blockchain developer, you must understand ABI (contract application binary interface) encoding and decoding because it’s how all smart contracts communicate with each other. It’s a fundamentally important topic for Ethereum and Solidity developers.

In this video, learn to recall, decipher, and construct your own call data by learning about ABI encoding and decoding.
