Bold Forecast: Cardano Founder Sees Crypto on Track for $10 Trillion Market by 2030
- Crypto adoption is on track to rise from 550 million users today to over 1 billion by 2030.
- Charles Hoskinson sees global financial assets shifting to blockchain systems within the decade.
- Market volatility remains heavy, but long-term expectations point toward a $10 trillion crypto economy.
The global crypto market continues to face deep swings, but long-term projections remain pointed in one direction. According to Charles Hoskinson, the number of people using digital assets has already crossed 550 million in 2025, setting the stage for more than one billion users by 2030.
Market specialists like Daniel Kim believe this growth is tied to a wider shift away from traditional systems, which are weighed down by rising debt levels and weakening trust.
The past year has been turbulent. Prices across major assets fell sharply, wiping nearly $1 trillion from the market. Yet Hoskinson reminded listeners that crypto cycles have always carried dramatic highs and lows.
He recalled earlier periods when Bitcoin moved from four figures to tens of thousands before falling back into deep corrections. This history, he argued, shows that volatility is part of the transition toward a more mature digital economy.
Cardano’s Vision Inside a Rapidly Expanding Market
Cardano is still integral to Hoskinson’s long-term vision. Though it has been affected by market trends, according to analysts such as Ryan Lucas, its roadmap ensures that it is ready to accept institutional investments as soon as assets begin to flow on-chain.
Hoskinson is confident that by 2030, most stocks, bonds, and other important investment instruments will function on blockchain technology rather than on old financial infrastructure.
This will include, he said, the desire to have open and transparent systems whereby one can verify information, ownership, and transactions without having to involve third-party entities.
Cardano’s work on such layers concerning anonymity, like Midnight, is also a sign of meeting a growing need among users to have safe online spaces. These technologies, according to Lucas, could make Cardano one of the biggest players within the predicted $10 trillion market.
Market Turbulence vs Long-Term Direction
Despite appearing red on charts lately, according to long-standing advocates, there have been no changes in the more overarching factors that trigger increased acceptance. A growing need to pay off debts and a lack of trust in mainstream currencies continue to lead to more widespread acceptance.
As Hoskinson put it, we live within an environment that rejects opaque and “centralized-control”-based systems, favoring those which are transparent and decentralized.
Experts monitoring market growth anticipate that the next level on this journey will be fueled by financial migration. With more institutions turning to tokenization and retail consumers increasingly participating in the market, they anticipate that the whole industry value will continue to rise.
