A recent report by Juniper Research predicts that the total value of stablecoin payments between businesses worldwide 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 the increasing adoption of stablecoins in cross-border B2B transactions, treasury operations, and supply chain settlements, where their ability to provide 24/7 settlement finality offers a distinct advantage over traditional banking channels. As stablecoins address the inefficiencies in cross-border payments, they are transitioning from a speculative asset to a core component of institutional payment infrastructure.
By 2035, B2B transactions are expected to drive 85% of the total stablecoin transaction value, with stablecoins becoming an integral part of international business payments, treasury operations, and supply chain settlements due to their rapid settlement capabilities. "Stablecoins are not replacing existing payment infrastructure, but rather being adopted in areas where their benefits are most pronounced," noted Juniper Research Analyst Jawad Jahan. "Cross-border B2B transactions are where these advantages are most significant, and we anticipate the most substantial volume growth in this area over the forecast period." Jahan advises stablecoin issuers to focus on integrating with enterprises and forming treasury partnerships to capitalize on the majority of this value.
This forecast is consistent with a recent report by Chainalysis, which predicted that stablecoins are on track to become a fundamental layer of global finance, with adjusted transaction volumes projected to reach $719 trillion by 2035.
