Hashed: "Asia to Lead Global Blockchain Commercialization by 2025"

Global Web3 venture capital (VC) firm Hashed anticipates that the Asian market will lead the global commercialization of blockchain next year.

On the 20th, Hashed shared its 'Hashed Thesis 2025' report on its official Medium, stating, "Asia, with its digitally savvy population, dynamic digital consumer market, and cultural tendencies familiar with collective participation, will stand at the forefront to lead the global trend of blockchain commercialization."

Hashed noted, "Major Asian countries such as Japan, Hong Kong, and Southeast Asia are adopting blockchain not as speculation but as a strategy and perspective," highlighting that consumers can experience diverse and efficient infrastructure and applications through blockchain technology.

Additionally, Hashed analyzed, "Asia is tech-friendly and has relatively high mobile usage. Based on this, the digital market in this region is rapidly growing," adding that "cultural tendencies familiar with collective participation can also promote interest and consumption of blockchain."

Along with this, Hashed presented seven forecasts for the blockchain market next year.

Firstly, it is expected that stablecoins will integrate more actively with the traditional financial system. Hashed emphasized that as B2B and B2C payments incorporating stablecoins increase, global capital flows will become more flexible, and financial efficiency will improve.

Attention was also drawn to the growth of social media utilizing Web3 technologies such as AI and blockchain. In Web3 social media, AI can generate immersive content 24/7, and the revenue is redistributed to creators holding tokens. Hashed explained that this can solve the issues of data, revenue, and personal information dominance by a few platform companies.

In addition, Hashed forecasted ▲distributed intelligence ▲improvement of high-quality data scarcity ▲blockchain adoption in consumer applications ▲integration of messenger platforms and blockchain ▲exploration of high-growth assets through blockchain and modernization of existing infrastructure.

Kim Seo-joon, CEO of Hashed, stated, "Blockchain will create a new paradigm of financial democratization and creator economy based on disruptive technological innovation," adding, "In 2025, Hashed expects areas such as the efficiency of financial infrastructure incorporating stablecoins, decentralization of the AI ecosystem, innovation of social media by tokenized autonomous agents, and the spread of Web3 consumer apps ensuring the same usability as traditional apps."
