A new report by Juniper Research predicts that international stablecoin transactions among businesses will skyrocket to $5 trillion by 2035, marking 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 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.
As stablecoins address the 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 the total stablecoin transaction value will come from business-to-business transactions.
The firm suggests that stablecoin issuers should focus on integrating with enterprises and forming treasury partnerships to capitalize on this trend.
