Cryptocurrency-based (or Decentralized) MarTech and AdTech Solutions Grew 400% in the Past Six Months

MarTech and AdTech

With tightening marketing and advertising budgets, the efficacy of programmatic advertising is a concern for small and businesses alike. Companies need better assurance their investments are delivering the right message, to the right people, at the right time. As it stands, brands are predicted to be losing $16.4 billion a year due to inefficiencies, middlemen, and fraud issues associated digital advertising.

Last year, WPP,  the world’s largest advertising company reported 22% in losses concluding Q2, 2017. In fact, each of the four biggest ad companies are absorbing massive losses as companies re-evaluate their advertising strategies.

Could the solution lie in advancements in the decentralization of the advertising market?

Coin and marketing entrepreneurs think so. The value-proposition for digital advertising needs to be better substantiated, and cryptocurrency entrepreneurs are eager to deliver solutions. So much, in fact, that blockchain-based martech and adtech projects have grown in number by 400% in the past six months alone.

Never Stop Marketing, a leading provider of blockchain marketing services, and developer of the Blockchain Marketing Technology Landscape (BMTL), reveals new ventures in this space are growing at a faster rate than  that of overall digital marketing software solutions.  

“We are seeing a tremendous growth rate,” said Jeremy Epstein, CEO of Never Stop Marketing. “The explosion in the crypto market is driving innovation in decentralized MarTech. It took over three years for digital marketing technology solutions as a whole to grow 400% from 2014 to 2017 and this market shows no signs of slowing down.”

According to the study, first-movers in this space are showing some aggressive traction.

  • AdChain has a market cap of $21 million and its daily trading volume is $200k
  • Steem is one of the top 1,200 most visited sites in the world, registering a top-500 spot in US traffic
  • Loyyal has worked with Smart Dubai on blockchain applications that support rewards for tourism activities and is being explored by Singapore airlines and the Amadeus Global Travel Ecosystem to deliver consumer loyalty
  • The OnXchng partner program now has 10 partners, with an estimated 300mm in mobile ad unit inventory.

Crypto-advertising and loyalty lead this explosion of growth but are closely followed by other blockchain martech and adtech solutions set to attack the inefficiencies in the digital ad ecosystem.

The loyalty market has grown by 150% as many people realize that loyalty points are assets that can be represented as crypto tokens, search and social advertising is up by 500%, and identity companies rose by nearly 100%.

“We expect to see this landscape grow even more, perhaps even at a faster rate as more talent and capital flows into the space,” said Epstein. “These are only the blockchain martech and adtech projects we know about and it is certainly possible that we have missed more than a few. We will update as we discover more.”

This is an exciting sector to watch. Projects seeking to be profiled on the MarTech/AdTech Landscape are requested to complete this form for consideration.

NFT(Non-Fungible Token) technology has recently gained huge focus in the blockchain arena and beyond, making waves in the online gaming sector, the art world, and the digital copyrights industry in recent years. The strongest feature of NFTs is that “NFTs are unique digital assets that cannot be replaced or forged”. Unlike fungible tokens such as Bitcoin or Ether, NFTs are not interchangeable for other tokens of the same type but instead each NFT has a unique value and specific information that cannot be replaced. This fact makes NFTs the perfect solution to record and prove ownership of digital and real-world items like works of art, game items, limited-edition collectibles, and more. One of the ways to have a successful…
