About 60% of leading American companies listed in the Fortune 500 are actively developing their own blockchain initiatives. This data was obtained from the quarterly report “State of Crypto,” prepared based on a survey conducted by EY-Parthenon in January 2025. The study also considered analytical materials from NRG and The Block Pro Research.

Dynamics of Blockchain Implementation in Large Companies
According to the survey, nearly six out of ten companies on the Fortune 500 list are already implementing or testing blockchain technologies in their operations. Moreover, one in five executives notes that blockchain is a key element of their company’s long-term development strategy.
Blockchain implementation rates are steadily increasing: while in 2023, 52% of companies on the Fortune 100 list were engaged in developing blockchain solutions, in 2024, this figure reached 56% among Fortune 500 companies, and by 2025, it is already 60%.
Business Prospects and Expectations from Blockchain
Among companies that are not yet using blockchain, nearly half (46%) plan to implement this technology within the next three years. There is particular interest in blockchain from representatives of small and medium-sized businesses: 80% of them believe that blockchain can help solve issues related to reporting and settlements.
The report also includes results from a survey of institutional investors: four out of five plan to increase their investments in crypto assets in 2025. At the same time, nearly 75% of respondents emphasize the importance of regulatory clarity for the further development of the market. They believe that this will be the main driver for the expanded use of cryptocurrencies in the corporate sector.
“It is clear that significant regulatory clarity is still needed to fully realize the potential of cryptocurrencies. That is why the adoption of legislation regarding market structure and stablecoins is so important for the future of crypto innovations in America.”
It is expected that the adoption of stablecoin legislation in the United States could be a key event for the industry as early as June 2025.
