Blockchain Press Releases
Growing Demand for Decentralized and Transparent Systems drives the Blockchain Category – Grand View Research, Inc.
Blockchain Category – Procurement Intelligence
SAN FRANCISCO, July 11, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — The blockchain category is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 87.7% from 2023 to 2030. North America accounts for the largest share of the category. The increasing demand for digital processes in the business is boosting growth. Companies are focusing on adopting technology for smooth transaction processes and data transparency. For instance, in January 2022 Walmart used blockchain technology to improve its supply chain by tracing storage of goods within seconds using the technology.
DeFi is a financial system that is built on top of blockchain technology. It allows users to access financial services without the need for a central authority, such as a bank. DeFi is still in its early stages, but it has the potential to revolutionize the way individuals and/or businesses think about finance.

Companies are continuously focusing on partnering or developing their own technology. For instance,
- IBM is supporting the transformation of money into a digital form known as Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC). Central banks are encouraging the issuing of digital coins instead of printing money to increase digital transactions. This would result in a rise in contactless payment with improved settlement and transaction times and less complexity and risk. Businesses will have enhanced control over monetary policy transmission, with built-in programming. IBM estimates that in 2023, 87 countries have started exploring CBDCs and 9 out of those 87 countries have launched a state-owned digital currency.
- In February 2023, MakerDAO, a prominent decentralized finance (DeFi) platform, has effectively integrated Chainlink’s smart contract automation, a blockchain data provider, into its Keeper system responsible for upholding the stability of Maker’s DAI stablecoin.
- In January 2022, Visa, the renowned payment company, partnered with ConsenSys, an Ethereum scaling company, to facilitate the integration of central bank digital currency (CBDC) networks with conventional financial institutions. Ultimately, customers will have the opportunity to utilize their Visa cards or digital wallets linked to CBDCs at any worldwide location where Visa is accepted.
- In June 2023, J.P. Morgan Chase developed a blockchain-based system, Onyx, for settling payments between banks. This system is designed to reduce costs and improve efficiency.
Category growth is expected to be fueled by the increasing global adoption of cryptocurrency. The utilization of blockchain technology in cryptocurrencies like Ethereum and Bitcoin is a key factor driving this trend. The rising demand for cryptocurrency is attributed to its advantageous features, including convenient transactions, protection against inflation, and heightened security.

Compass Mining Expands into Iowa with New 30 MW Bitcoin Mining Facility
The new, fully self-owned facility enhances Compass’s capacity and offers customers greater choice for machine deployment
WILMINGTON, Del., Nov. 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Compass Mining (“Compass” or the “Company”), a leading provider of Bitcoin mining hardware, hosting, and services, today announced its acquisition of property and power agreements to establish a state-of-the-art mining facility in Iowa. Construction is already underway on the expandable facility, with an initial 8 megawatts (MW) scheduled for energization in January 2025 and plans for expansion up to 30 MW as Compass pursues additional infrastructure investments.
Located on a 5-acre greenfield site, the new Iowa facility marks a significant step in the Company’s growth strategy, increasing its self-owned infrastructure portfolio. With an Electric Service Agreement (ESA) in place, Compass is on track to energize 8 MW of capacity by January 2025. Once operational, Compass customers will have the option to select “Iowa 4″ as the deployment location for new machines purchased through Compass’s platform.
Compass Mining has traditionally partnered with third-party facilities but is actively working to reduce counterparty risk through ownership of its own sites, such as the new Iowa facility, which is both self-owned and self-operated. This ownership model allows Compass to strengthen control over its operations and offer enhanced flexibility to customers.
“This new site marks an important milestone,” said Shanon Squires, Chief Mining Officer of Compass Mining. “By increasing our self-owned capacity, we can provide our customers greater operational control. At the same time, our partnerships with reliable third-party facilities provide our customers greater deployment flexibility, reflecting both power market dynamics and geographic diversity.”
The Iowa facility builds on Compass’s broader U.S. expansion, following the successful energization of facilities across Kentucky (10 MW) and Nebraska (7.5 MW) earlier this year. In 2024 alone, Compass has energized nearly 50 MW of new power capacity across Indiana, Iowa, Ohio, Kentucky, Nebraska, and Texas, with an additional 20 MW planned by January 2025.
