According to a new report by Juniper Research, cross-border stablecoin payments among businesses are expected to skyrocket to $5 trillion by 2035. This staggering figure represents 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 international 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.
Juniper Research notes that stablecoins are transforming from speculative assets to a fundamental component of institutional payment infrastructure, with 85% of their total transaction value in 2035 expected to come from B2B transactions. The firm suggests that stablecoin issuers should focus on integrating with enterprises and forming treasury partnerships to capitalize on this trend. This projection aligns with a recent report by Chainalysis, which forecasts stablecoins to become a cornerstone of global finance, with adjusted transaction volumes projected to reach $719 trillion by 2035.
