The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Ripple, <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/news/ripple/ripple-ceo-sec-2-billion/">Brad Garlinghouse</a> has boldly forecasted a transformative shift in the crypto industry, envisioning a $5 trillion <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/total-crypto-market-cap-to-hit-7-5-trillion-next-year/" rel="nofollow">market capitalization for cryptocurrencies</a> in 2024.&nbsp; 
<h2 id="ripple-ceo-says-crypto-market-cap-to-double-by-year-s-end">Ripple CEO Says Crypto Market Cap To Double By Year’s End</h2> 
Appearing in a recent interview with CNBC, Garlinghouse made a shocking prediction, stating that he sees the entire <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/analyst-set-8-trillion-target-for-crypto-market-cap/" rel="nofollow">market capitalization of the crypto industry</a> surging to $5 trillion by the end of 2024. The significance of this prediction carries severe weight, not just because of the startling numbers but also due to its ambitious timeline.&nbsp; 
Since the concept of cryptocurrency was first introduced about 40 years ago and the inception of <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/bitcoin-creator-satoshi-nakamoto-said-bitcoin-should-not-be-called-an-investment-so-what-is-it/" rel="nofollow">Bitcoin</a> in 2009, the overall market capitalization of the industry has only been able to <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/bitcoin-news/crypto-market-cap-soars-1-5-trillion-milestone-achieved-bitcoin-sets-new-record/">reach about $2.5 trillion</a>. This massive growth in a dynamic industry has been fueled by the evolutionary changes that have significantly reshaped the fundamentals of the financial sector.&nbsp; 
A rise to $5 trillion, as Garlinghouse expects, will see the crypto industry’s market capitalization doubling in about nine months. This substantial increase in such a short period would spell a revolutionary shift in the industry, extending its dominance as one of the most lucrative and thriving markets in the world.&nbsp; 
Currently, according to CoinMarketCap, the global crypto market capitalization is estimated at $2.59 trillion, reflecting a 0.74% increase in the past 24 hours. The cumulative market volume has also grown to about $61.98 billion, with Bitcoin dominance recording more than 50% of the total cryptocurrency market.&nbsp; 
<h2 id="key-factors-to-fuel-market-cap-growth">Key Factors To Fuel Market Cap Growth</h2> 
During his interview, Garlinghouse revealed several crucial factors that could drive the crypto market capitalization to $5 trillion. The Ripple CEO disclosed that macro factors, including the <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/spot-bitcoin-etf-flows-flip-gold-capital-rotation/" rel="nofollow">Spot Bitcoin Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs)</a> and the <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/news/bitcoin/12-days-bitcoin-halving-why-100000/">upcoming Bitcoin halving event</a>, were prime catalysts for the market’s expansion.&nbsp; 
Expressing optimism about the crypto industry, the CEO shared insights from his years observing the market’s trends. He emphasized that the <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/breaking-spot-bitcoin-etfs-approved-by-us-sec/" rel="nofollow">introduction of ETFs</a> has been a major driver, attracting institutional investors globally and pushing <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/bitcoin-etfs-new-ath-inflows-coinbase-reserves/" rel="nofollow">substantial funds into the market.</a>&nbsp; 
Additionally, Garlinghouse pointed out that due to these macro factors, the demand for cryptocurrencies is increasing while its supply is dwindling. He implied that this <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/will-bitcoin-burst-demand-outpaces-supply/" rel="nofollow">imbalance in supply and demand</a> typically results in price appreciation, eventually having a positive impact on the overall market.&nbsp; 
The Ripple CEO has also stated that he expects more <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/us-congress-grills-yellen-on-crypto-regulation/" rel="nofollow">regulatory clarity</a> within the crypto industry, particularly in the <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/us-crypto-industry-major-victory-federal-reserve/" rel="nofollow">United States</a>. He hinted at the possibility of a favourable change in crypto regulations following the country’s election and transition to a new administration.
