Link Project, ICON Project, Klaytn in Japan and South Korea are starting their business. How these projects can change the local economy? Carry protocol and Contents protocol can be a good example for this.
All the projects are there to simplify things and if the projects could really make a difference to the society it will have an implication on the economy as well. There are many projects coming up but only time will tell whether these projects will be successful as they intended to be as we have seen many promising projects that came and just could not fulfill what they started and died off eventually. So it is hard to predict until we have results.
There are really good projects that intend to change the old system.
However, the usual struggle is in the implementation side.
You will see and read well-written whitepapers with elaborate plans, but very few items are being realized later on.
Hindrances like funds, number of consumers or the dev team themselves play major role for the success of the platform.
