According to a report by Juniper Research, cross-border stablecoin payments among businesses are expected to 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 B2B transactions, treasury operations, and supply chain settlements, where they offer advantages over traditional banking channels due to their programmability and instant 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 stablecoin transaction value will come from B2B payments.
The firm suggests that stablecoin issuers should focus on integrating with enterprises and forming treasury partnerships to capitalize on this growth. This projection aligns with a recent report by Chainalysis, which forecasts stablecoins to become a core component of global finance, with adjusted transaction volumes projected to reach $719 trillion by 2035.
