A recent report by Juniper Research predicts that international stablecoin payments among businesses will 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 adoption of stablecoins in cross-border B2B transactions, treasury operations, and supply chain settlements, where they offer advantages over traditional banking channels due to their programmability and rapid settlement capabilities. As stablecoins address current inefficiencies in cross-border payments, they are shifting from speculative assets to a fundamental component of institutional payment infrastructure. By 2035, Juniper Research expects 85% of stablecoin transaction value to come from B2B payments, with stablecoins becoming an integral part of international business transactions.
The firm's analyst, Jawad Jahan, notes that stablecoins are not replacing existing payment infrastructure but are being adopted where their benefits are most pronounced, particularly in cross-border B2B transactions. To capitalize on this trend, stablecoin issuers should focus on integrating with enterprises and forming treasury partnerships.
This projection aligns with a recent report by Chainalysis, which forecasts stablecoins to become a cornerstone of global finance, with adjusted transaction volumes potentially reaching $719 trillion by 2035.
