3 Ways to Play This $15.5 Billion Blockchain Subsector

While the price of major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum remain choppy this year, businesses and investors across the globe have been busy exploring ways they can best use blockchain technology.

They're trying to harness the tech to improve or streamline operations in a wide range of industries – from financial services, media, and telecom to transportation, healthcare, and consumer or industrial products.

The idea here is that the blockchain can provide a digital store of value, eliminate the middleman currently required in many digital transactions, quicken settlement between parties, and authenticate transactions in an immutable way.

And that's just the beginning.

So this is going to be a big industry, with a big market.

WinterGreen Research estimates the worldwide market for blockchain products was $706 million last year and could reach more than $60 billion by 2024. That's 8,400% growth in less than a decade – and that'll lead to the kinds of gains no one can ignore.

But today, I want to focus on a smaller sector within the blockchain world. It's got explosive profit potential all on its own.

Then I'm going to show you three ways to make money on this blockchain revolution.

Inside the Bitcoin Mining IPO Everyone Is Talking About

The crypto community has been buzzing about a potential initial public offering from Bitmain Technologies Ltd. for a few months now.

Maybe you've been doing some of that buzzing yourself.

I know that back on Aug. 14, I buzzed about it.

I said if Bitmain goes public, it would be one of the few blockchain pure plays on the market. And I noted how a Bitmain IPO would be a big catalyst for the whole cryptocurrency sector.

That all remains true.

But now the time for rumors and whispers is up. Bitmain's big move, which would be the crypto world's largest IPO to date, is on the record.

Last week, the Beijing-based firm officially filed to go public on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange – date to be determined.

There's a lot of potential upside here – but there are many possible pitfalls as well.

So we'll take a look at all that.

Then I'll show you a way you can play this crypto IPO to your advantage.
