blockchain market

Organizations are projected to spend almost $6.6 trillion this year on blockchain solutions, up more than 50 percent from 2020. Blockchain expenditure will continue to increase strongly over the 2020-2024 forecasting period with a 5 years annual compound growth rate (CAGR) of 48.0%, according to a recent update to the International Data Corporation (IDC) Worldwide Blockchain Spending Guide.

“This is a crucial moment for the blockchain industry as companies continue to expand their technology investment across sectors and industries. The epidemic emphasized the need for more robust, transparent supply chains, health care, financial services, and many more, and companies all over the globe invested in blockchain to provide resilience and transparency, “James Wester, director of research, Worldwide Blockchain Strategies, stated. “What is also very significant at this time is that we see genuine interest and investment in sectors they had previously seen with doubt, such as cryptocurrencies, digital assets, digital central bank currencies, decentralized finance, and stability. In a very short period, this investment will have a significant impact on everything from retail to financial services and capital markets.”

Lot Lineage, which verifies the origin and validity of a product while moving through the value chain, is the second biggest blockchain use case. 

What Happens Now?

Banking will remain the forecast’s top blockchain sector, but its proportion of expenditure will significantly decrease by 2024. Cross-border payments and settlements, trade finances, and post-trade/transaction settlements are the main use cases for blockchains in the banking sector.

Lot Lineage/Provence is the main example in both sectors. Professional services, retail, and insurance sectors follow, relying on blockchain to track the movement of money and goods. Professional services (56.0 percent CAGR), state/local government (53.3 percent CAGR), and healthcare sectors are the fastest increase in blockchain expenditure in the projected year (52.7 percent CAGR).

In addition to that, Coronavirus had a crucial impact t the sectors that are using blockchain technology. One of the examples of this is online bitcoin casinos. As many people stayed at home and without jobs, they started to seek additional ways to make money. For those people, one of the ways was online BTC casinos. After the increased demand, there were many online casinos, which offered their clients BTC bonus without deposit, in order to attract them more as the competition after the increase in blockchain distribution and during pandemic has grown up. “While businesses who diverted their money and/or paused initiatives focused on other important efforts, the impacts of the pandemic did not apply to the blockchain,” stated Stacey Soohoo, Research Management, Customer Insights, and Analysis. “In the present context, blockchain is used in banking, manufacturing, professional services, and retail business in particular. Specifically, the emphasis has been on the monitoring of things from manufacturers to retailers and associated payments and settlements that include the movement and administration of commodities.

Technologically speaking, IT and business (combined) services will account for more than two-thirds of total blockchain expenditure during the prediction with IT services getting somewhat greater investment throughout the predicted timeframe. With a 5-year CAGR of 52.9 percent, Blockchain software will be the biggest category of expenditures outside the services sector and the most rapidly expanding area of technology.

Spending on blockchain solutions will be almost 2.6 billion dollars this year, making it the world’s biggest regional market, followed by West Europe (1.6 billion dollars) and China (777 million dollars). All nine areas covered by the Guide will experience extraordinary expenditure growth in China’s five-year CAGR of 54.6 percent and Central and Eastern Europe during a projected period (50.0 percent CAGR).

Future Opportunities

In the past few years, the global blockchain market, estimated at US$ 3.02 trillion in 2020, has seen extraordinary development following the growing demand for cryptocurrencies and increasing digitization.

Due to supply chain interruptions, lockouts, and a number of physical constraints, the COVID-19 pandemic has expedited digital transformation in several sectors. Blockchain’s industry growth is also helped by replacing blockchain initiatives since many of them have disregarded the technology’s fundamental characteristics. The industry will be seeing significant development in the near future with the pandemic bringing focusing on the necessary improvements in blockchain technology. In addition, the growing use of DLT systems, as well as expanding e-commerce usage will boost the Blockchain market’s value in the near future.

In many sectors such as BFSI, production, retail and e-commerce, and medical care, the pandemic has substantially boosted the need for blockchain distributed ledger. In addition, since companies across the world open again, many firms are focusing on blockchain-distributed ledgers for enhanced security features that minimize the danger of cyber threats to their consumers.

Public Blockchain, among other types, is a significant sector worldwide (Public blockchain, Private Blockchain, Hybrid blockchain), and is projected to continue to expand throughout the forecast period. 

Among Blockchain Market applications (digital identity, payments, smart contracts, supply chain management, etc.), Payments has a significant worldwide market share and is anticipated to continue to expand in the projected time.
