The report, presented by the Bitcoin Builders Association, provides an in-depth look at the expansive tokenized BTC landscape, signaling a major opportunity for investors and builders
The Bitcoin Builders Association today announced the release of a comprehensive research report titled “State of Tokenized BTC: A $1T Opportunity.” This in-depth study, authored by Tanguy Girault, explores the rapidly evolving $17 billion tokenized BTC landscape and its potential to revolutionize the cryptocurrency industry.
Key findings from the report include:
- The tokenized Bitcoin market has the potential to unlock $950 billion in currently unproductive BTC liquidity.
- The current tokenized BTC Market Cap stands at approximately $16.9 billion, representing only 1.23% of the total BTC Market Cap, indicating significant growth potential.
- 21 market participants are currently active or expected to launch in 2024, with 40% of these projects going live this year.
The report provides a comparative analysis of the tokenization ecosystem, focusing on key platforms such as wBTC, cbBTC, tBTC, and sBTC. It highlights both the innovative opportunities and inherent risks associated with these solutions.
The report arrives at a critical moment when the financial world is reimagining Bitcoin’s potential beyond traditional store of value narratives. Recent developments such as the launch of cbBTC and sBTC highlight a transformative shift, with institutions and innovators seeking to make Bitcoin more productive and versatile. The findings of this report underscore the growing appetite for technologies that unlock Bitcoin’s latent economic potential.
“This research offers valuable insights into the future of Bitcoin and its integration with decentralized finance,” said Tanguy Girault, report author and researcher at the Bitcoin Builders Association. “We believe tokenized BTC will be a game-changer for the industry, potentially catalyzing DeFi with Bitcoin liquidity.”
The study predicts that centralized exchanges and institutional investors will drive the adoption of centralized bridges, while decentralized solutions target a massive $648 billion total addressable market.
The full report “State of Tokenized BTC: A $1T Opportunity” is now available on the Bitcoin Builders Association website.
