109: Contract Immutability

 Contracts on Ethereum are immutable, meaning that once they are deployed, their code cannot be changed. This immutability is a key feature of the Ethereum network, as it ensures that contracts will always behave as intended and provides a high degree of trust and security for users. This immutability is enforced by the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), which executes the code of deployed contracts. Once a contract is deployed, its code is stored permanently on the blockchain, making it impossible to modify. This is in contrast to traditional software development, where updates and changes can be made to code even after it has been deployed.
