There is a lot of transactions that end up taking place “off game” with things like casinos/gambling being a specific example for EVE. Rather then having to trust that you’ll get your isk (I never played but watched the down the rabbit hole on EVE, which is great BTW, and watched from afar throughout the years).

With a smart contract system, there wouldn’t be the same concerns that things aren’t being distributed properly, unless there’s a bug in how the smart contract was written, which absolutely can and has happened, but at least it’d all be publicly viewable. That’s one thing I very much appreciate about the idea of crypto in general, transparency in where money is moving.

I’m sure there’s other potentials but that one stuck out to me as gambling was a rather large part of eve history.
