CoinDesk's Q3 2016 State of Blockchain Report Now Available

Startups Adapt to 'Multi-Blockchain' Model

CoinDesk's Q3 2016 State of Blockchain report summarizes key trends, data, and events from the first quarter of 2016.

We've completely revamped the design of the research and have initiated coverage of ethereum, with it being the first of many spotlights to come. 

 

Highlights include:

  • Public blockchain startups, including exchanges and miners, adapt to a 'multi-blockchain' model.
  • The struggle for ethereum. Q3 2016 was a painful time for the network due to the seismic DAO hack and corresponding hard fork.
  • Investment in blockchain tech is down 18% year over year despite reaching $114m in the quarter.
  • Banks continue to get very serious about blockchain tech with 14 of the top 30 banks engaging in proofs-of-concept.

Ethereum Spotlight

The ethereum spotlight takes a deeper look into the network that had a very eventful summer. First there was The DAO, which first raised $150 million and then was hacked a few weeks later. Then there was the hard fork to recover those funds. This spotlight takes a deeper dive into whether that attack and hard fork had a negative impact on ethereum.
