Cryptocurrency Market by Offering (Hardware (ASIC, FGPA, Others), Software, Exchange Platform), Process (Mining (Pool, Cloud, Other), Transaction), Type (Bitcoin, Ripple, Ethereum, Litecoin, Tether, Others), Geography-Forecast to 2031
The research report titled, 'Cryptocurrency Market by Offering (Hardware (ASIC, FGPA, Others), Software, Exchange Platform), Process (Mining (Pool, Cloud, Other), Transaction), Type (Bitcoin, Ripple, Ethereum, Litecoin, Tether, Others), Geography-Forecast to 2031', provides in-depth analysis of the cryptocurrency market across five major geographies and emphasizes on the current market trends, market sizes, market shares, recent developments, and forecasts till 2031.
The cryptocurrency market is projected to reach $61.1 billion by 2031, at a CAGR of 8.4% from 2024 to 2031. The growth of the cryptocurrency market is driven by high returns attracting individuals toward cryptocurrency and the growing recognition of cryptocurrencies. However, the high investments and operating cost of computational resources may restrain the growth of this market.
Furthermore, the expansion of blockchain technology and the growing interest of investors in digital assets are expected to generate growth opportunities for the stakeholders in this market. However, regulatory barriers and a lack of awareness and technical understanding regarding cryptocurrencies are major challenges impacting market growth. Additionally, the increasing adoption of distributed ledger technology is a prominent trend in the cryptocurrency market.
The cryptocurrency market is segmented by offering (hardware (FGPA, GPU, ASIC, data centers, and other hardware), software (mining software, wallet software, and payment software), and exchange platform), process (mining (solo mining, pool mining, and cloud mining), transaction (exchange, wallet)), type (Bitcoin, Ripple, Ethereum, Litecoin, Tether, Dogecoin, and other types). The study also evaluates industry competitors and analyzes the market at the regional and country levels.
Based on offering, the cryptocurrency market is broadly segmented into hardware, software, and exchange platforms. In 2024, the hardware segment is expected to account for the largest share of above 80.0% of the cryptocurrency market. The hardware segment is further segmented into FGPA, GPU, ASIC, data centers, and other hardware. The segment's large market share is mainly attributed to the growing requirement of high computational resources for mining, the growing introduction of energy-efficient computational hardware for cryptocurrency mining, and high returns from cryptocurrency mining.
However, the software segment is expected to record the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The growth of this segment is mainly driven by the increasing demand for mining cryptocurrency software, the need for dedicated payment software to accept cryptocurrency payments, the rising acceptance of cryptocurrency payments by retailers, and the ability of mining software to easily switch between different cryptocurrencies.
Based on process, the cryptocurrency market is broadly segmented into mining and transactions. In 2024, the mining segment is expected to account for a larger share of above 71.0% of the cryptocurrency market. The mining segment is further segmented into solo mining, pool mining, and cloud mining. The segment's large share is mainly attributed to factors such as rising cryptocurrency prices, increased focus on energy-efficient mining processes, and growing miners' approach to pool mining to increase their chances of earning rewards.
Based on type, the cryptocurrency market is segmented into Bitcoin, Ripple, Ethereum, Litecoin, Tether, Dogecoin, and other types. In 2024, the Bitcoin segment is expected to account for the largest share of above 44.0% of the cryptocurrency market. The segment's large market share is mainly attributed to its high price, highest market capitalization, and limited supply of Bitcoin.
Moreover, the Bitcoin segment is expected to record the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The growth of this segment is mainly driven by increasing demand from retail and institutional investors and the growing interest of investors in digital assets.
Based on geography, the cryptocurrency market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa. In 2024, North America is expected to account for the largest share of above 36.0% of the cryptocurrency market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the presence of large cryptocurrency mining farms, leadership in the global financial system and economic competitiveness, and increasing investments of companies developing blockchain technology and cutting-edge solutions for cryptocurrency mining.
Moreover, North America is projected to register the highest CAGR of 9.5% during the forecast period. The growth of this region is mainly driven by the growing demand from consumers and businesses for crypto-enabled financial services, increased institutional activity, and rising acceptance of cryptocurrency payments.
