According to a report by Juniper Research, the total value of international stablecoin payments among businesses is expected to surge to $5 trillion by 2035, marking a significant 373-fold increase from the estimated $13.4 billion this year. The research firm attributes this growth to the increasing use of stablecoins in cross-border business-to-business transactions, treasury operations, and supply chain settlements, where they offer advantages over traditional banking channels due to their programmability and swift settlement finality. As stablecoins address the current inefficiencies in cross-border payments, they are shifting from speculative assets to a foundational layer of institutional payment infrastructure. Juniper Research estimates that 85% of the total stablecoin transaction value in 2035 will come from B2B payments.
The firm suggests that stablecoin issuers should focus on integrating with enterprises and treasury partnerships to capitalize on this growth. This projection is in line with a recent report by Chainalysis, which forecasted that stablecoins are on track to become a core component of global finance, with adjusted transaction volumes projected to reach $719 trillion by 2035.
