The digital assets landscape is becoming increasingly mainstream, as detailed
in the annual State of Crypto report published by venture
capital
firm Andreessen Horowitz.

The report emphasizes the growing international market for stablecoins, the
maturation of infrastructure, and a notable decline in transaction fees, all
contributing to a surge in crypto activity throughout the year.

Active Monthly Crypto Addresses Surge To 220 Million

Eddy Lazzarin, Chief Technology Officer at Andreessen Horowitz, stated,
Crypto activity is at an all-time high, indicating significant
growth across multiple dimensions of the market .

The report, released on Wednesday, categorizes crypto activity into three main
segments: users, owners, and active crypto addresses.

technology for
transactions such as purchasing non-fungible tokens (NFTs) or transferring
Circle’s USDC stablecoin.

Notably, only a small percentage—between five to ten percent—of crypto owners
are classified as active users.

However, the report further reveals a notable increase in active monthly
addresses, which soared to 220 million in 2024, a substantial rise from below
100 million in 2023.

According to the firm’s analysis, this growth trajectory mirrors the early
adoption patterns observed during the internet s nascent stages.

Additionally, the total number of global crypto owners has reached 617
million, while the number of active users ranges from 30 to 60 million.

Lazzarin attributes the disparity between owners and active users to “the
complex user experience,” suggesting that enhancing app usability, lowering
costs, and achieving regulatory clarity could re-engage passive crypto owners.

Decline In Transaction Fees Key To growth?

Stablecoins have found what Lazzarin describes as product-market
fit. The report notes that 32% of daily crypto activity is now driven
by stablecoins, surpassing all categories except decentralized finance (DeFi).

This growth has been especially pronounced in countries facing hyperinflation,
such as Argentina, where the local peso depreciated by 82%. In response,
Lazzarin explains that many Argentinians have turned to stablecoins to
safeguard” their assets, leading to a 10,000% increase in stablecoin trading
on the Mexican exchange Bitso.

Declining transaction fees have fueled this record activity in the digital
asset
space. The report highlights how advancements in Ethereum s
scaling solutions have decreased the cost of sending USD internationally by
99%.

While traditional international wire transfers typically incur fees of around
$44, transferring USDC via Coinbase’s Base Layer 2 solution costs less than
one cent.

Ultimately, the report attributes this cost reduction to a
maturing digital asset infrastructure, which includes new
blockchains and increased interoperability. The 1D chart shows the surge in

At the time of writing, the total crypto market capitalization stands at $2.27
trillion, with approximately $250 million of fresh capital injected into the
digital asset ecosystem over the past 5 days.
