OVHcloud named a 'Star' for the third consecutive year in Markets and Markets blockchain market report

RESTON, Va. — October 13, 2026 — OVHcloud®, a global leader in cloud solutions, has been named a “Star” in the Markets and Markets “Blockchain Market Global Forecast to 2031” report. It's the third year running the company has earned the distinction, following recognition in 2024 and 2025 for its technological capabilities, international footprint and long-standing ties to the blockchain community.

The report credits OVHcloud blockchain-ready infrastructure: confidential compute servers built on Intel® SGX/TDX and AMD® SEV, compliance environments including SecNumCloud, and certifications spanning SOC 2® and PCI DSS. Across 46 global data centers and 34 edge compute locations, OVHcloud pairs private, public and hybrid cloud offerings with the high-bandwidth, high-performance storage blockchain workloads demand — giving blockchain businesses a reliable, scalable foundation to build on.

“The blockchain ecosystem is well-established, and we are starting to see rapid adoption across traditional enterprises and public institutions. Decentralization is at the heart of the blockchain ethos, and organizations need infrastructure technology from an alternative, sovereign European infrastructure provider with global reach. Being named a 'Star' demonstrates that we've been leading the market for three years in a row, is proof of our product and service quality, and shows the strength of our teams around the world. OVHcloud continues to build the capabilities that power organizations everywhere as they adopt and succeed with blockchain,” said Octave Klaba, Chairman and CEO of OVHcloud.

Much of that momentum traces back to the team behind it. “In the last year, we've pushed hard to support blockchain organizations in the most meaningful, impactful ways,” said Omar Abi Issa, Global Sales Director for Blockchain, Web3 and AI, OVHcloud. “We've introduced specific server lines for blockchain developers; we've worked on guides for deploying nodes on public and private cloud platforms and made partnerships with carefully chosen organizations around the globe. We've advocated for blockchain at all levels and developed sustainable infrastructure optimized for the industry — and we're honored that the industry has recognized us as a visionary and a leader.”

Abi Issa points to the range of organizations now building on OVHcloud as evidence of how far the market has come. “We're proud to support blockchain organizations across all industries, from startups and research organizations to MSPs and large enterprises deploying blockchain at scale. Today we're at a crucial inflection point where blockchain is seeing more adoption in traditional enterprises as well as in the builder community. Whether it's the core builder community and ecosystem, or businesses facilitating cross-border payments, supporting insurance claims or improving drug traceability around the world, we're here to support them all by laying the infrastructure foundation for the entire industry and supporting the next wave of future innovation.”

In the U.S, that infrastructure is already underpinning some of the industry's highest-throughput blockchain platforms. OVHcloud Dedicated Servers carry zero egress fees in the United States — a meaningful cost advantage for validators and RPC nodes that generate heavy outbound traffic — alongside a custom anti-DDoS mitigation profile built for high-throughput chains like Solana®, and support exclusively for energy-efficient Proof-of-Stake networks. The infrastructure is already earning that trust where it counts, in production: Alchemy®, whose blockchain API platform serves institutions across the payments and crypto industries, runs on OVHcloud Advance Dedicated Servers. Everstake has consolidated validator infrastructure for more than 80 Proof-of-Stake networks onto OVHcloud, maintaining 99.98% uptime across more than $7 billion in staked assets.
