Häufige Fragen zu dieser Folie und dem zugrunde liegenden Präsentationsinhalt.
ARK forecasts global real GDP growth will accelerate from the IMF's consensus 3.1% to 7.3% annually through 2030, driven by five major innovation platforms (AI, Public Blockchains, Robotics, Energy Storage, and Multiomics). Capital investment alone could add 1.9 percentage points to annual growth, with additional gains from increased returns on invested capital, transformation of non-market activity into GDP, and freed human potential for productive use.
ARK projects data center systems investment will reach approximately $1.4 trillion annually by 2030, growing at a 30% compound annual rate. This represents a dramatic acceleration from the 5% CAGR seen from 2012-2023 to 29% CAGR post-ChatGPT. The forecast includes a shift toward accelerated compute (GPUs and ASICs) taking increasing market share from traditional servers.
ARK forecasts the robotaxi ecosystem could generate $34 trillion in enterprise value by 2030, with $200 billion in revenue and $20 billion in EBIT. Autonomous technology platforms are expected to capture 98% of enterprise value, 97% of EBIT, and 76% of revenue. The analysis suggests autonomous ride-hail could drop prices from $2.80 per mile (human-driven) to $0.25 per mile by 2035.
ARK projects the digital asset market could reach $28 trillion by 2030, growing at ~61% CAGR. Bitcoin is expected to dominate with 70% share (~$16 trillion at 63% CAGR), while smart contract networks could reach ~$6 trillion (54% CAGR). The forecast is based on penetration rates across six use cases: institutional investment, digital gold, emerging market safe haven, nation-state treasury, corporate treasury, and on-chain financial services.
ARK identifies a $26 trillion revenue opportunity split between household robotics ($13T) and manufacturing automation ($13T). The household opportunity is calculated from 2.8 billion global workforce × 2.3 hours unpaid work per day × $12/hour average × 50% time value. Manufacturing opportunity comes from $32T global manufacturing GDP × 100% productivity uplift × 35% provider take rate. Humanoid robots reaching human-level proficiency around 2028 is key to unlocking this market.
ARK's analysis shows AI could reduce drug development costs from $2.4 billion (industry average) to $0.7 billion for future AI-designed drugs—a 4x reduction. Time-to-market could decrease from 13 years to 8 years, and human trial failures could drop from 7.6 to 1.9. AI-developed drugs could generate $4 billion in cumulative cashflow over 30 years versus $1 billion for traditional drugs. Gene-editing cures are valued at 20x typical drugs.
Stablecoin adjusted transaction volumes reached $3.5 trillion monthly (30-day average) in December 2025, already 2.3x larger than Visa + PayPal + Remittances combined. The tokenized assets market tripled to $19 billion in 2025 and could reach $11 trillion by 2030, representing ~1.38% of all financial assets. DeFi applications are achieving extraordinary revenue efficiency, with companies like Hyperliquid generating $60M+ revenue per employee.
ARK identifies a $1.2 quadrillion US longevity market opportunity based on doubling healthy life potential from 11.7 billion to 23.6 billion quality-adjusted life years (QALYs). At $100,000 per QALY, this 11.9 billion QALY gain represents massive value. The multiomics-AI flywheel is accelerating this: molecular test data volumes will increase 10x by 2030 (exceeding frontier LLM training data), AI-enabled diagnostics will reach ~30% of FDA approvals, and gene-editing cures for rare diseases could be worth $3.5 billion each—20x typical drugs.
