Cello's goal is for every user anywhere in the world to be able to access financial services, in order to transfer money to their contacts and buy goods through a smartphone. In the Celo protocol, there is the ability to develop and deploy smart contracts. The codes of these smart contracts are fully compatible with Ethereum virtual machines. The codes used in the design of the Celo blockchain network architecture are also similar to the Ethereum network codes. However, Celo is a completely separate network from Ethereum.
