-Is there a decompiler available?
-================================
-
-There is no exact decompiler to Solidity, but
-`Porosity <https://github.com/comaeio/porosity>`_ is close.
-Because some information like variable names, comments, and
-source code formatting is lost in the compilation process,
-it is not possible to completely recover the original source code.
-
-Bytecode can be disassembled to opcodes, a service that is provided by
-several blockchain explorers.

-Contracts on the blockchain should have their original source
-code published if they are to be used by third parties.

Create a contract that can be killed and return funds
