Bitcoin Technology Market Report 2024

The bitcoin technology market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $14.36 billion in 2023 to $16.99 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.3%. The growth observed during the historic period can be attributed to several factors such as initial enthusiasm from technology enthusiasts, heightened public awareness and interest, economic uncertainty, growing acceptance of Bitcoin as a payment method by merchants, and increasing institutional investment.

The bitcoin technology market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $33.45 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.4%. The anticipated growth during the forecast period is driven by several factors, including increased institutional adoption, clearer regulatory frameworks, expansion of exchanges, global acceptance, and a move towards sustainable mining practices. Key trends expected during this period include advancements in security innovations, the rise of decentralized finance, technological progress, integration with traditional financial systems, and the growing adoption of Bitcoin in online gaming.

The increasing adoption of cryptocurrency as a payment method is anticipated to drive growth in the bitcoin technology market. Cryptocurrencies, digital or virtual currencies secured by cryptography and operating independently of central authorities, are gaining popularity as businesses and financial institutions embrace them. Rising awareness and understanding of cryptocurrencies among the public and institutional investors further contribute to this trend. Bitcoin technology supports this adoption by offering a decentralized, secure, and efficient method for conducting transactions without intermediaries. For instance, a June 2023 report by the Financial Conduct Authority, a UK financial regulatory body, revealed that 91% of UK adults were aware of crypto assets in August 2022, up from 78% in 2021. Furthermore, 9% of adults, or approximately 4.97 million people, owned crypto assets, a notable increase from 2.3 million or 4.4% in 2021. Consequently, the growing acceptance of cryptocurrency as a payment method is expected to fuel the growth of the bitcoin technology market.

Key players in the bitcoin technology market are concentrating on enhancing security measures to protect digital assets and build user trust in cryptocurrency transactions. Security technology for cryptocurrency transactions involves various measures, protocols, or technologies designed to safeguard against threats such as hacking and fraud. For example, in October 2022, Mastercard Inc., a US-based multinational payment card services corporation, introduced Crypto Secure, a technology solution aimed at improving security and confidence in the digital ecosystem. Crypto Secure utilizes CipherTrace data and technology to assist card issuers in navigating regulatory challenges related to digital assets. It helps issuers assess the risk profiles of virtual asset service providers (VASPs) and make informed decisions about enabling bitcoin transactions, thus reducing fraud risks while avoiding overly restrictive measures that could hinder legitimate transactions with crypto businesses.
