Many trends are emerging in blockchain technologies, such as smart contracts, NFTs, cryptocurrencies, and others. Knowing top blockchain trends can help you decide how to use blockchain technology to benefit your business. 

Let’s check the top blockchain trends in 2025, so you can prepare your business in advance under the latest trends in blockchain technology.

Key Market Takeaways for Blockchain Technology

Estimates show the global blockchain technology market reached USD 4.8 billion in 2022. By 2032, this market is projected to reach around USD 2,334.46 billion, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 85.7% anticipated during the forecast period (2023-2032).

Blockchain technology market size

Here is a list of emerging trends in blockchain technology in 2025. 

1. Cryptocurrencies

Cryptocurrency uses blockchain technology to store transactional data in its peer-to-peer network. With the help of blockchain, crypto eliminates its dependency on centralized authorities like banks or any other financial institution to perform crypto transactions worldwide without any restrictions and limitations.

Moreover, blockchain provides additional security to the crypto, making it safer than other centralized fund transfer services. However, users will need a crypto wallet to store their cryptocurrencies and make them able to transfer to other users.

The blockchain offers multiple security features to crypto transactions, making cryptocurrencies safer and more resistant to hackers’ attacks.

I. Bottlepay provides a crypto-payment gateway 

UK-based start-up Bottlepay has started offering its crypto payment gateway. Users can join their platform with an easy verification process that helps them convert currencies such as EUR or GBP into BTC and convert cryptocurrencies into currencies like euros.

The company uses the Lightning network to operate on top of Bitcoin. The lightning network enables users to transact their money to the content creator through social media platforms without any transactional fee.

II. ChainCard makes a Web3 Crypto Wallet

Chain Guard is a Canadian startup that develops Web 3 wallets where users can purchase and store cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc. The platform also allows users to take an interest in their crypto savings and swap their cryptocurrencies with others.

2. Asset tokenization

Blockchain offers tokenization features through which anyone can convert assets, such as royalties, portfolios, arts, and others, into digital records.

Tokenization improves the liquidity of assets that businesses can transfer to other parties with the help of NFTs. Also, businesses can schedule their asset transfer in advance with the help of smart contracts. 

After meeting certain conditions, the smart contract will be executed, and the specified tokenized asset will be transferred to the business partners.

I. Buzzmint eases digital asset tokenization  

Buzzmint is a UK-based startup that provides a platform for digital assets tokenization. The platform allows its users to quickly create and deploy non-fungible tokens(NFTs) of their digital assets. Moreover, the platform allows users to sell their NFTs to an external platform.

II.Courtyard allows tokenizing physical assets

A US-based startup, Courtyard enables its users to tokenize their physical assets. On Courtyard, users can trade their NFTs on any marketplace and securely store their underlying assets. Moreover, the platform allows users to set up royalties on their digital assets so they can sell their products globally.

3. Smart Contracts

The use of smart contracts is another blockchain trend adopted by businesses worldwide. Many start-ups allow other businesses to create smart contracts on their platform.

Unlike traditional contracts, smart contracts are digital ones executed after meeting several conditions.

Here’s how smart contracts work as compared to traditional contracts:

How smart contract works?

Smart contracts provide more security as they are immutable and help businesses avoid fraudulent activities. 

I. Viveel launched a smart contract builder 

Viveel, a Portuguese startup, created a smart contract builder that allows businesses to build and execute smart contracts. Their platform offers visual programming and template-driven workflow to create smart contracts easily.

However, only the distributors of real-world data can operate Oracle nodes to ensure the trustworthiness of data. At the same time, other 

participants of a particular blockchain can earn rewards by performing staking, which gives additional credibility to the nodes.

4. Advanced cryptography

Blockchain uses cryptography to encrypt communication between nodes to ensure the immutability of transactions. 

For cryptography, blockchain uses symmetric and asymmetric cryptographic algorithms. 

In symmetric cryptography, the same key is used for communication between nodes. While in asymmetric cryptography, the system can encrypt and decrypt messages using public and private keys.

I. Ruby protocol creates privacy-centric web 3 protocol

A Canadian startup, Ruby Protocol, has built a decentralized privacy-centric Web3 protocol. The platform allows users to encrypt their information on-chain, where only holders with private keys can decrypt that particular information.

The dApps eliminate the control and dependency of centralized authorities, which helps dApps to offer more control and flexibility in their infrastructure.

Also, there is no downtime issue in the case of decentralized applications, as decentralized servers are backed by separate individuals worldwide. 

All these advantages of decentralized apps help companies run their apps smoothly over specific blockchain networks. 

I. Cube simplifies the dApp token staking process
