  • The United Kingdom’s NFT industry is expected to grow at a CAGR of 34.5% over the next 5-6 years.
  • NFT spend in the UK will increase from $1,725.2 million in 2022 to $9,257.0 million by 2028.
  • Increased adoption, government support and venture funding are key factors to that growth.

The global non-fungible tokens (NFT) market took a hit alongside the rest of the market in 2022, with sales volumes and creator revenue seeing a significant decline.

But despite the brutal crash that’s characterised the crypto sector throughout the year, the latest trends and projections suggest the NFT industry will continue to grow over the next six years.

Key segments in the next few years will be collectibles and art, real estate, sports, gaming, fashion & luxury and utility.
