To “International Data Corporation” ‘s projection of global blockchain market’s growth of 80% yearly (reaching $12 billion in 2022), ReportLinker’s one (blockchain in Automotive and Aerospace & Aviation Market) of 60% in 10 years and “Allied Market Research” ‘s estimation of global blockchain supply chain market going to $10 billion in 2025 (increasing 80% annually) we now can add “Acumen Research” ’s findings on world-wide blockchain in healthcare.
“Acumen Research” (a consulting subsidiary of “Acumen Fund” owned by Jacqueline Novogratz — sister of Michael Novogratz) published on their site an extract from the report named “Blockchain in Healthcare Market. Global Industry Analysis, Market Size, Opportunities and Forecast, 2019–2026”.
It says: “The global blockchain in healthcare market size is poised to reach over USD 1.7 billion by 2026 and will grow at CAGR 48.1% during the forecast period, 2019–2026.” America and Canada are named by this report as places with dominating healthcare spending. “Asia Pacific accounts for the fastest growing market” and “The Middle East & Africa holds the least share in the market due to presence of poor economy countries in Africa region.”
It also indicates key participants of this future industry, which includes traditional players such as IBM Corporation, Accenture, Microsoft, Capgemini, Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited as well as the new ones: Ethereum (zic!), Coinbase Inc. (?), Blockchain Tech Ltd (Vancouver based blockchain technology investment company, acquired by Global Arena Holding in 2015), Digital Asset Holdings (five years old financial company based in NY, which raised more than $100 million), Abra (wallet) (?) and Bitfury (mining) (?).
Our eyebrows can, of course, be raised on mentioning of Ethereum, Coinbase, Abra and Bitfury in this context. Looks like authors have slightly misunderstood the nature of blockchain :) However, we can induce that Novogratz’s employees expect Ethereum platform being the chosen one for healthcare blockchain developers. Also we can speculate that tokenizing and trading private information is expected to be the core of this growing business.
