Matt Hougan, Chief Investment Officer at Bitwise, predicts blockchain transaction volumes could grow 10 to 100 times in the coming years, driven by two main forces: the tokenization of real-world assets, with $12.88 billion in tokenized US Treasuries and over $3 trillion in cumulative transactions on JPMorgan’s Kinexys platform, and the rise of autonomous AI agents expected to handle at least 15% of daily financial decisions by 2030. Ethereum dominates the market with 61.4% of tokenized assets, approximately $206.2 billion, while BlackRock’s BUIDL tokenized money market fund has reached around $3 billion. Hougan argues that current crypto valuations do not reflect this incoming wave of activity, and that if transaction volumes genuinely increase by 10 to 100 times, fee revenue flowing to blockchain protocols would grow proportionally.
