By 2035, the total value of international stablecoin payments among businesses is projected to reach $5 trillion, marking a significant 373-fold increase from the estimated $13.4 billion this year, according to a report by Juniper Research. 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 rapid settlement. As stablecoins address current inefficiencies in cross-border payments, they are transitioning from speculative assets to a core component of institutional payment infrastructure.
Juniper Research estimates that 85% of the total stablecoin transaction value in 2035 will come from B2B transactions. The firm suggests that stablecoin issuers focus on integrating with enterprises and forming treasury partnerships to capitalize on this trend.
This projection aligns with forecasts from Chainalysis, which predicts that stablecoins will become a fundamental layer of global finance, with adjusted transaction volumes expected to reach $719 trillion by 2035.
