Decentralized Application Economics

Definition

Decentralized application economics refers to the economic principles and incentive structures governing decentralized applications, or dApps. This field examines how value is created, distributed, and sustained within dApp ecosystems, including tokenomics, user incentives, governance mechanisms, and fee structures. It analyzes the interaction between network participants, developers, and asset holders to ensure the dApp’s long-term viability and utility. Effective dApp economics are crucial for attracting users, securing the network, and promoting sustainable growth without central authority.
