Timestamp Locker — Vyper Code

A simple timelock contract where ETH can only be withdrawn after a specific timestamp.

unlock_time: public(uint256)

@payable
@external
def __init__(_unlock: uint256):
	self.unlock_time = _unlock

@external
def withdraw():
	assert block.timestamp >= self.unlock_time
	send(msg.sender, self.balance)

Vyper Language Guide

Vyper is a security-focused, Python-like smart contract programming language for the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). It emphasizes simplicity, readability, and auditability-making it ideal for high-assurance smart contracts.

Primary Use Cases

  • ▸High-assurance smart contracts
  • ▸DeFi protocols and vaults
  • ▸Governance and treasury contracts
  • ▸Security-audited financial logic
  • ▸Minimalistic EVM dApps

Notable Features

  • ▸Python-like syntax
  • ▸Strong typing and safety checks
  • ▸No modifiers -> predictable flow
  • ▸No inheritance -> reduced complexity
  • ▸Built-in overflow/underflow protection

Origin & Creator

Vyper was created by the Ethereum Foundation with contributions from Vitalik Buterin and the research team. It emerged around 2017 as a safer alternative to Solidity.

Industrial Note

Vyper is heavily used in high-stakes DeFi protocols, DAO governance, staking pools, and security-critical Ethereum contracts where simplicity and predictability matter more than feature richness.
