The digital asset sector is projected to witness accelerated growth in 2026, bolstered by advancing regulatory clarity globally and the emergence of innovative blockchain products. Co-founder Sumit Gupta of CoinDCX highlighted that 2025 was a volatile year, characterized by market fluctuations and operational hurdles for many companies.
CoinDCX is preparing to launch new products in the first quarter of 2026, anticipating that upcoming US regulations, such as the proposed Clarity Act, will foster wider adoption. Meanwhile, the Indian crypto industry is looking towards the upcoming Union Budget for potential tax reforms and regulatory adjustments, aiming for tax rate relief and greater parity with offshore platforms.
Tokenization of real-world assets is emerging as a significant trend, enhancing transparency, reducing costs, and improving accessibility. The growing use of stablecoins and other blockchain-based assets is expected to drive increased adoption not only in the US but across international markets as financial markets progressively move on-chain.
