According to a report by Juniper Research, cross-border stablecoin payments between businesses are expected to skyrocket to $5 trillion by 2035. This staggering figure represents a 373-fold increase from the estimated $13.4 billion this year. The research firm attributes this growth to the increasing adoption of stablecoins in international B2B transactions, treasury operations, and supply chain settlements, where they offer advantages over traditional banking channels due to their programmability and 24/7 settlement finality.
As stablecoins address current inefficiencies in cross-border payments, they are shifting from speculative assets to a foundational layer of institutional payment infrastructure. By 2035, Juniper Research estimates that 85% of stablecoin transaction value will come from B2B payments. The firm advises stablecoin issuers to focus on enterprise integrations and treasury partnerships to capitalize on this trend.
This projection is supported by a recent report from Chainalysis, which forecasts stablecoins to become a cornerstone of global finance, with adjusted transaction volumes projected to reach $719 trillion by 2035.
