A recent report by Juniper Research estimates that international stablecoin payments among businesses will surge to $5 trillion by 2035, marking a significant increase from the current estimated total value of $13.4 billion. 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 rapid settlement finality. As stablecoins address current inefficiencies in cross-border payments, they are transitioning from speculative assets to a fundamental component of institutional payment infrastructure.
Juniper Research expects 85% of the total stablecoin transaction value in 2035 to come from B2B payments, with stablecoins becoming an integral part of international payments due to their speedy settlement capabilities. The firm suggests that stablecoin issuers should focus on integrating with enterprises and forming treasury partnerships to capitalize on this growth opportunity.
