According to a report by Juniper Research, the total value of international stablecoin payments among businesses is expected to reach $5 trillion by 2035, representing a significant increase from the estimated $13.4 billion this year. The research firm attributes this growth to the increasing adoption 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 24/7 settlement finality. Juniper Research notes that stablecoins are addressing the current inefficiencies in cross-border payments, and their use is expected to shift from speculative assets to a foundational layer of institutional payment infrastructure. The firm estimates that 85% of the total stablecoin transaction value in 2035 will come from B2B transactions, with stablecoins being integrated into international payments due to their speedy settlement finality.
As stated by Juniper Research Analyst Jawad Jahan, stablecoins are being adopted where their advantages are most pronounced, particularly in cross-border B2B transactions, and stablecoin issuers should focus on enterprise integrations and treasury partnerships to capture the majority of this value.
