What is Silverscript for Kaspa?

Silverscript is the primary tool for writing Kaspa covenants — programmable rules that govern how coins can be spent. It is a high-level language, meaning developers write in a human-readable syntax rather than raw machine-level instructions; Silverscript then compiles that syntax into Kaspa script, the native instruction set the Kaspa network actually executes. Understanding this matters because Silverscript is the practical entry point for anyone who wants to build covenant-based applications on Kaspa — it abstracts away low-level complexity the same way CashScript does for Bitcoin Cash developers.
