Analysis: Application of Smart Contracts to Create $25 Trillion Market, AI Dominating Blockchain by 2030

Former Bloomberg analyst Jamie Coutts CMT shared a report on the combination of artificial intelligence (AI) agents and blockchain. According to the report, by 2030, the market value of smart contract platforms is expected to reach $15 trillion to $25 trillion.


AI is expected to bring exponential growth to smart contracts. The report identifies five major factors driving the rapid growth of the blockchain industry, which were not quantitatively analyzed in previous models. AI technology is believed to indirectly increase the demand for verification on the blockchain. Whether guided by humans or autonomous, AI smart contract wallets conducting value exchange on the blockchain are expected to significantly change the trajectory of market growth.
Starting from 2026, the report introduces a concept called “AI Growth Factor,” which is projected to increase the annual growth rate of active users by 10% each year. Coutts points out that although the initial impact of AI agents is mild, by 2030, these AI agents are expected to account for over 40% of active users. This significant increase is also a key factor driving the appreciation of blockchain assets.
Coutts further emphasizes that although regression analysis based on historical data cannot accurately predict the future, he is confident that with the expansion of blockchain networks and AI, the network value will experience exponential growth. He believes that even if these predictions have only a 25% chance of coming true, the current market valuation will still achieve a four to fivefold increase.
In an interview with Shark, co-founder and CEO of Cobo, a digital asset custody solution provider, and co-founder of F2Pool, the world’s largest mining pool, in April of this year, Shark was asked to share the impact of AI on the cryptocurrency industry and wallet custody in the future. What kind of understanding should the crypto community have regarding AI? At the time, he replied:
