We cannot predict the 2022 trend, though many say Metaverse is the new wave right now. But, who truly knows?!
I think Defi and new projects built around the decentralized finance concept could be huge in 2022. Tron's TRC20 chain, BSC, and other cheap and fast blockchains make Defi a promising arena.
Decentralized Metaverse, Games, and other vital sectors will benefit big time from these blockchain technologies.
New projects are launching targeting the tourism and travel, real estate market is huge. Crypto trading will see a shift with the new hedge funding Ferox (which again is a TRC20 tech project.) Defi has not seen a big move yet. So, with better tech and implementation, this field will explode.
