Blockchain Capital Could Reach $100 Trillion by 2030
The financial sector is undergoing a transformative shift as blockchain technology gains traction among traditional institutions. According to a TD Cowen report, on-chain capital has ballooned to $4.6 trillion since 2020 and is projected to surpass $100 trillion within five years. Asset tokenization—driving efficiency and cost reduction—is the primary catalyst.
Tokenization accelerates cross-border transactions, slashes settlement times, and enables 24/7 operations via smart contracts. JPMorgan and Bank of America are among the heavyweights standardizing protocols, signaling broad institutional adoption. "Real-world assets are reshaping traditional and digital finance," notes Matt Hougan of Bitwise. TD Cowen echoes this sentiment, forecasting a financial network exceeding $1 trillion in value.
