Automated and Guaranteed Smart Contract Call

[Jim8y]

Summary or problem description As it has been mentioned and proposed by the community again and again in https://github.com/neo-project/neo/issues/2473 https://github.com/neo-project/neo/issues/672 https://github.com/neo-project/neo/issues/660 , I think it is time to add automated smart contact call to neo.

Indeed it is kinda same with a third-party function, the automated contract call empowered by neo is a certain and guaranteed behavior. The liveness of a service provided by a third-party can not be ensured.

Do you have any solution you want to propose? Either leverage Oracle to respond the automation call, or leader constructs transactions to respond the automation request.

Neo Version

• Neo 3

Where in the software does this update applies to?

It is a powerful tool, I remember discussions with @shargon and something like that, smart services.

#672 , let's do this @Jim8y, if the contract haven't got any gas, it can be automatically stopped, and they will need to pay again for register
