Worldwide blockchain market value share 2020, by sector

In 2020, the distribution of the global blockchain market revenue was heavily distributed towards the banking industry, which has a market share of almost 30 percent. While process manufacturing accounted for 11.4 percent of worldwide blockchain spending. Overall, the global spending on blockchain solutions is continued to grow in the upcoming years. Blockchain technology Simply put, blockchain is a distributed ledger technology, which creates assurance between trading partners, especially in trades that occur with cryptocurrency. For example, in the case of Bitcoin and Ethereum, blockchain is the technology that allows for the transfer of these cryptocurrencies, providing confidence in financial transactions. This additional confidence through the usage of blockchain comes from the reduced fraud, increased financial inclusion, and decreased costs. This leads to the simplification of cross-border payments and settlements, which has the potential to change the global banking industry as we know it. Blockchain and Bitcoin Blockchain and Bitcoin have a symbiotic relationship as blockchain technology was created to be a database structured into “blocks” of data that is linked, or in other words, “chained”, to other sets of data. The blockchain technology stores the Bitcoin transactions in a continuous linked structure, that continues to increase with time and each transaction. Hence, with the increased popularity of Bitcoin comes the increased importance of the growing Bitcoin blockchain, which is visible in the increased number of blockchain wallet users worldwide in the past few years alone.

2020年，全球区块链市场收益的分配呈现出高度集中的态势，银行业占据了近30%的市场份额，而流程制造业则占据了全球区块链支出的11.4%。总体而言，全球对区块链解决方案的投入在未来的几年中持续增长。区块链技术，简言之，是一种分布式账本技术，它为交易伙伴之间建立了信任，尤其是在涉及加密货币的交易中。例如，在比特币和以太坊的案例中，区块链技术是实现这些加密货币转移的技术，为金融交易提供了信心。通过区块链的使用所增加的这种信心来源于欺诈的减少、金融包容性的提升以及成本的降低。这导致了跨境支付和结算的简化，有望改变我们所熟知的全球银行业格局。区块链与比特币之间存在着共生关系，因为区块链技术的创建是为了构建一个由“区块”构成的数据库，这些区块通过链接或曰“链式”连接到其他数据集。区块链技术将比特币交易存储在一个持续链接的结构中，随着时间的推移和每一次交易而不断增加。因此，随着比特币的普及度提高，不断增长的比特币区块链的重要性也随之提升，这一点仅在过去几年全球区块链钱包用户的数量增加中便可窥见。
