According to Cointelegraph, according to NYU blockchain and industry experts, some industries limit the performance of smart contracts unless they are used with IoT sensors. On July 10, associate professors Hanna Halaburda and Yannis Bakos from the NYU Stern School of Business presented a study on integrating smart cards and IoT sensors to improve business performance at the Unitize meeting. Halaburda explained that IoT is the key to getting the most out of smart contracts in industry. Regarding the contracts of fruit shipping companies and wholesalers, he said that the contracts successfully solve the problem of self-regulation, but do not support shipping companies to ensure good fruits. However, once IoT sensors are integrated into the process, the smart contract can add points (like temperature) or adjust the load based on fruit quality. Thus, no one is bound to fulfill any part of the contract based on the trust of others.

According to Cointelegraph News, Richard Holden, a professor at the University of New South Wales, believes that distributing information technology could solve Republicans' voter registration problems, but could help Democrats. Holden points out that while the DLT has the potential to increase voter turnout and have a "positive impact" on U.S. election results, questions remain about the fairness of the entire electoral process to go through. He said: "The distribution of information technology can be a protection against fraudulent mailings. But in law, the DLT is also not affected by speculation. "So it will play an important role in the future. . It's intentional but disruptive."
