Real Vision CEO Raoul Pal Predicts 4B Crypto Users by 2030, $100T Market Cap by 2034
Raoul Pal, CEO of Real Vision, projects exponential growth for the cryptocurrency market, forecasting 4 billion users by 2030 and a $100 trillion market capitalization by 2034. His analysis highlights the accelerated adoption of digital assets compared to historical tech waves like the early internet.
Pal emphasizes two primary drivers behind this growth: adoption and currency debasement. crypto wallets have already surpassed 5 million—twice as fast as early internet IP addresses—and are on track to reach billions. Meanwhile, monetary debasement accounts for 90% of crypto's price action, with adoption fueling its outperformance against fiat erosion.
Institutional research aligns with Pal's outlook. Citigroup's Institute predicts stablecoins could grow to $3.7 trillion by 2030 under favorable regulations. Stablecoins, already major holders of US Treasuries, are increasingly integrated into mainstream finance, signaling sustained demand for digital assets.
