Market Overview:
A smart contract is simply a program that runs on the Ethereum blockchain. It is a set of code (its functions) and data (its state) stored at a specific address on the Ethereum blockchain. Smart contracts are an Ethereum account type. This means they have a balance and can send transactions across the network. They are not, however, controlled by a user; rather, they are deployed to the network and run as programmed. User accounts can then interact with a smart contract by submitting transactions that execute a smart contract-defined function. Smart contracts, like regular contracts, can define rules and automatically enforce them through code. Smart contracts are inherently irreversible and cannot be deleted by default.
Market Dynamics and Factors:
The increasing adoption of various applications in industries such as supply chain, banking, government, insurance, and real estate are major factors driving the growth of the smart contract market size. Furthermore, the growing popularity of Blockchain technology is increasing demand for the Smart Contracts Market. Smart contracts are a digital alternative to paper-based contracts that provide significant benefits in terms of lowering transaction costs, improving process efficiency, and ensuring information security. Smart contracts may make more sense in certain industries than others. Smart contracts do not require brokers or other intermediaries to confirm the agreement, eliminating the risk of third-party manipulation. Furthermore, the lack of an intermediary in smart contracts results in cost savings. As a result, the smart contract market is expected to grow during the forecast period.
