Does BTC have smart contracts?

I've heard that Bitcoin has evolved and now supports smart contracts, which are automatically executable agreements between two or more parties on a blockchain network. I'm curious if BTC, as the native token of the Bitcoin network, also has this smart contract functionality. Does BTC have smart contracts?

One such type is Pay-to-Public-Key-Hash (P2PKH). This mechanism ensures that the Bitcoin in a transaction can only be spent by the intended recipient.

The P2PKH smart contract verifies the authenticity of the recipient through a cryptographic hash of their public key.

Another type of smart contract supported by Bitcoin is Multi-Signature Scripts. This requires multiple signatures from different wallets to authorize the release of funds.
