The Global Blockchain IoT Market size is expected to reach $11.9 billion by 2030, rising at a market growth of 57.2% CAGR during the forecast period.
Due to the substantial number of ongoing smart city projects throughout the world, the smart city segment seeks profitable possibilities for the blockchain IoT solutions in the near future, thereby, the smart city segment is anticipated to capture approximately 1/5th share of the market by 2030. Digital Catapult, Sidewalk Labs LinkNYC, Green City Solutions' CityTree, Telensa Smart Parking, and many other notable smart city initiatives are among those currently in operation around the globe. Some of the factors impacting the market are the escalating Need for IoT Security, growing acceptance of blockchain IoT solutions that use smart contracts and AI, and processing power, storage, and scalability issues.
A compelling solution for IoT security is provided by blockchain, which provides strong protection against data theft and unauthorized access to IoT devices. Utilizing blockchain for IoT data storage ensures additional security, strong encryption, and transparency so that only those with permission can access the IoT network. As a result, enterprises that utilize Internet of Things (IoT) sensors depend more on blockchain technology to improve the security of their IoT assets. Smart contracts allow parties to establish terms and circumstances to increase confidence and clarify whether a contract can be enforced. Smart contract technology when paired with blockchain IoT offers several advantages. For instance, Biz4Intellia's Intellia IoT smart contract solution utilizes one of the best blockchain and IoT combinations with tailored smart contracts. Smart contracts prevent contract manipulation, the sensors mounted on goods monitor information in real-time as specified in smart contracts, and parties are promptly notified in case of breaches. These benefits of smart contracts are the major factor supporting wide adoption of blockchain IoT solutions that use smart contracts and AI, thereby leading to market expansion.
However, data processing delays, higher transaction costs, and a generally bad user experience can all be caused by scalability problems. Effective scalability is critical for a blockchain IoT solution to handle enormous transactions and interactions between IoT devices. Nevertheless, numerous blockchain networks require substantial computational resources for transaction validation and distributed ledger maintenance. IoT devices generate a vast amount of data, which can quickly contribute to an explosion in storage requirements. Hence, those mentioned above technological and security issues prevent their wider implementation, which ultimately negatively impacts the market's growth.
