A new report by Juniper Research predicts that cross-border stablecoin payments among businesses will skyrocket 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 stablecoins' ability to address current inefficiencies in traditional cross-border payments. By 2035, 85% of stablecoin transaction value is expected to come from business-to-business transactions, with stablecoins transitioning from speculative assets to a core component of institutional payment infrastructure. The advantages of stablecoins, including 24/7 settlement finality, are driving their adoption in international business payments, treasury operations, and supply chain settlements.
As stablecoins continue to gain traction, they are poised to revolutionize the payments landscape, with Juniper Research Analyst Jawad Jahan noting that stablecoin issuers should focus on enterprise integrations and treasury partnerships to capitalize on this trend.
