For those who are unaware Automated Transactions (AT -
http://ciyam.org/at) is a Turing complete smart contract virtual CPU implementation that has been operating (smoothly) for over one year now (and is being used by two blockchains - namely Burst and Qora).
It was actually the first "live" Turing complete such smart contract system (beating Ethereum by many months).
As things are progressing with the Bitcoin development road-map CIYAM is now looking to partner up to provide this proven technology as a side-chain for supporting arbitrary smart contracts (in what we think is a much simpler and more robust approach to that taken by Ethereum).
Feel free to contact me via PM to discuss further.
