Major companies have started working on the platform owing to the growing list of potential applications across various domains. There has also been a significant increase in the growth of new start-ups which are focusing majorly in the blockchain technology.

Similarly, E-commerce and retail sector is adopting this technology for the payments of retail transactions and digital signatures. Governments and public sector are aiming to adopt this technology for registering government assets and for securing a faster and error free voting mechanism.

The Asia-Pacific region is also predicted to join the bandwagon of this growing market owing to various disruptions in the markets of China, India and Australia.
