Cryptocurrency Market with impact of COVID-19 by Offering (Hardware, and Software), Process (Mining and Transaction), Type, Application (Trading, Remittance, Payment: Peer-to-Peer Payment, Ecommerce, and Retail), and Geography - Global Forecast to 2026
The cryptocurrency market size is expected to grow from USD 1.6 billion in 2021 to USD 2.2 billion by 2026, at a CAGR of 7.1%. Transparency or distributed ledger technology and growth in venture capital investments are the key factors driving the growth of the cryptocurrency market.
“Hardware to hold largest size of Cryptocurrency market in 2021”
The concept of cryptocurrency is based on decentralizing the monitoring of transactions. In the transaction monitoring process, miners (generally the users) validate the transactions made by other users. In this process, the system needs high computing power to validate the transactions. The validation process involves the creation of hash codes to encrypt the transactions. To generate a hash code, the miner needs highly effective and efficient hardware. In other words, to get new blocks and solve them, miners need to generate as many hash codes as possible. Miners get rewards through mining. Mining rigs are available in several shapes and sizes. The cryptocurrency market for hardware has been segmented, on the basis of processor, into GPUs, central processing units (CPUs), FPGAs, and ASICs.
“Mining process to hold largest share of Cryptocurrency market in 2021”
Mining is an integral process for the generation, transmission, and validation of transactions in cryptocurrencies. It ensures stable, secure, and safe propagation of the currency from a payer to a receiver. Unlike fiat currency, where a centralized authority controls and regulates the transactions, cryptocurrencies are decentralized and work on a peer-to-peer system.

Hardware to hold the largest size of the cryptocurrency market by 2023
Hardware holds a major share of the overall cryptocurrency market because miners need high computing power to validate transactions, which involves the creation of hash codes to encrypt the transactions. To generate a hash code, the miner needs highly effective and efficient hardware. The mining power is processed using various kinds of hardware such as application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), field-programmable gate array (FPGA), and graphics processing unit (GPU). There are already more than 900 different types of cryptocurrencies available in the market, and the number keeps on growing. Moreover, there are numerous ICOs and new projects being developed each day. The need to run and validate these huge transactions, in turn, creates a need for mining hardware in the cryptocurrency market. These factors help drive the growth of the market for hardware.
Market for peer-to-peer payment expected to grow at the highest rate between 2017 and 2023
The growing demand for compliance-free peer-to-peer transaction is driving the market for cryptocurrency in the peer-to-peer payment segment. Cryptocurrency transactions are compliance-free, tax-free, and charge very low processing fees. This acts as a major factor for the growth of the cryptocurrency market for peer-to-peer payments. Moreover, the growing awareness toward cryptocurrency has enabled its increasing adoption, especially for payments related to small contracts, salaries, and donations.
APAC held a major share of the cryptocurrency market in 2016
APAC held the largest share of the overall cryptocurrency market primarily owing to the increasing demand for compliance-free transaction as well as the increasing number of cryptocurrency use cases in the region. China is the largest market for cryptocurrency mining as the climate of Northern China is ideal for mining, and the cost of electricity in China is among the lowest in the world. Cryptocurrency is also very popular in Japan. Exchanges are legal in Japan, where people can buy or sell cryptocurrency like a commodity. These factors make APAC the largest market for cryptocurrency.
