SRI analysis predicts $20.3B revenue loss for incumbents from on-chain market shift

A Solana Research Institute analysis found that a shift to public blockchains in financial market infrastructure could reduce annual revenue for incumbent providers by up to 20.3 billion dollars. The global financial market infrastructure market generates 31.5 billion dollars annually, with only 11.2 billion dollars expected to remain with existing providers post-transition. The trading segment's entire 13 billion dollars in revenue would face competition, while approximately 6.8 billion dollars of the clearing segment's 10 billion dollars in revenue may be retained. This estimate assumes no regulatory measures are taken to protect incumbent providers. Cost savings from the on-chain shift are anticipated to benefit users and new entrants.
