In this segment Mark Moss walks through his quantitative projection model for the total monetary value of the cryptocurrency ecosystem through 2050. He references a 2025 donut‑chart visualization that splits future outcomes into bull, bear, and a reference (or “Mark’s”) monetary path. Using the reference path, he states that the market would grow from roughly $900 trillion in 2025 to about $1.5 quadrillion by 2030, $3 quadrillion by 2040, and $6 quadrillion by 2050. He notes that these figures assume continued growth of Bitcoin and other assets, and that the model is built on existing data and a conservative adoption thesis (Mark’s thesis) rather than the more aggressive high‑adoption scenario.

Now the question is, again, using that methodology I explained, how big does it get into 2030, 2040, and 2050? Right? We understand it's not frozen in time. So what I did here is you can see here, 2025, I created this donut chart so you can see, and we have these different paths. Now, again, because we're projecting into the future, we're using it based off of their data. And then we have sort of like a bull case and a bear case. So we'll just use the reference monetary path. Now what we can see if we go into 2030, that grows to about $1.5 Now again, we have a conservative thesis, Mark's thesis, and a high adoption thesis, but we'll stick with Mark's thesis here because it's my model. And in 2030, that grows from about $900 trillion to about $1.5 quadrillion. By 2040, we can see this grows to about $3 quadrillion. And again, now Bitcoin is growing. All of these things are growing with that. Then by 2050, we're at $6 quadrillion.
