Geographically, North America is forecast to hold the largest blockchain market, with the Asia Pacific seeing the highest CAGR.

The study also found that global demand for the blockchain market will rise further, following increasing use in banking and financial transactions as well as the popularization of digital identities.

BFSI to Continue to Dominate Blockchain

The Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance (BFSI) sector is projected to dominate the blockchain market during the forecast period from 2017-2026, while the highest growth rate will be found in the media and entertainment sector. The growth in this sector will be mainly caused by the increasing use of blockchain across smart contracts, document management, and digital identities.

In terms of the size of enterprises, large enterprises are expected to hold the maximum share, whereas small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) will likely account for the highest growth rate in the blockchain market. Both large enterprises and SMEs are predicted to adopt the technology, mainly due to its high cost-effectiveness and time efficiency.
