The blockchain devices market is expected to grow from USD 482 million in 2021 to USD 2,459 million by 2026, at a CAGR of 38.5% during the forecast period. Decentralized structure and various other attributes associated with blockchain technology is expected to drive the blockchain devices market. Blockchain devices, for instance, hardware wallets, offer multiple security measures such as firmware verification, protected key operations (requirement of an authentic PIN for all operations), protected bootloader, and security updates. Rapid development of blockchain technology in retail & supply chain management applications are facilitating the growth of blockchain devices market. Several stakeholders in the supply chain management industry have begun to use blockchain technology to improve transparency and efficiency in their business operations, as well as to improve the delivery phase. Also, growth in cryptocurrency market capitalization and initial coin offering (ICO) is one of the main drivers for the blockchain devices market.
Although the blockchain devices market is growing at a steady pace, it is moderately competitive owing to the presence of several players such as Ledger (France), SatoshiLabs (Czech Republic), Genesis Coin (US), Pundi X (Singapore), and SIRIN LABS (Switzerland) venturing into blockchain hardware R&D. Key strategies adopted by these players to enhance their product portfolios, increase their market share, and expand their presence in the market mainly include product launches, deals (partnerships and collaborations), and others (expansions) were the major growth strategies adopted by the players in the blockchain devices market. These strategies enabled them to efficiently cater to the growing demand for blockchain devices and expand their global footprint by offering their products globally.

For instance, in December 2020, SatoshiLabs (Czech Republic) announced that its subsidiary Tropic Square (Czech Republic) would create a secure and transparent chip called TASSIC. TASSIC is the first custom chip (ASIC) with a minimalistic implementation of fundamental functionality—secure storage and associated cryptography—to securely store digital data. The prototype is likely to be developed by the end of 2021.
In December 2020, RIDDLE&CODE (Austria) announced the release of Trusted Gateway, a device that transforms distributed energy resources such as PV systems, solar panels, and microgrids into trusted data sources and self-sovereign energy marketplace participants. This gateway will speed up the future of the distributed energy market. Apart from this, players have also adopted acquisition, partnership and expansion strategies to enhance their product portfolio and geographical reach. For instance, in November 2020, Pundi X (Singapore) partnered with Merkle Science— a Singapore based cryptocurrency risk and intelligence company. The partnership is focused on preventing the illegal use of cryptocurrencies on the Pundi X platform to create a safe ecosystem for carrying legal transactions.
