# 2. Market Analysis

The global online poker market size was worth around $86.2 billion in 2022 and is predicted to grow to around $237.5 billion by 2030, according to a 2023 [report](https://www.zionmarketresearch.com/report/online-poker-market-report) by Zion Market Research.

A similar [report](https://www.researchandmarkets.com/report/online-poker) by Research and Markets released in August 2023 estimates that revenue for the same market was $59.35 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach 155.36 billion by 2030, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.14%.

If the true figures lie somewhere in between, the fact is these revenues are much higher than the best projections that were available in 2018 when our original CoinPoker [whitepaper](https://www.allcryptowhitepapers.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/coinpoker.pdf) was released. This is extremely encouraging and shows that online poker has been growing faster than anticipated in recent years.
