Economic rights pertain to the entitlements an individual or entity holds regarding the financial benefits or value derived from an asset or enterprise. These rights can include claims to profits, dividends, interest payments, or the appreciation in asset value. In the context of digital assets, these are often programmed into tokens or smart contracts. They determine how value accrues to token holders.
