According to a new report by Juniper Research, the total value of international stablecoin payments between businesses is expected to surge 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 they offer advantages over traditional banking channels due to their programmability and rapid settlement finality. As stablecoins address existing inefficiencies in cross-border payments, they are transitioning from speculative assets to a fundamental component of institutional payment infrastructure. By 2035, Juniper Research forecasts that 85% of stablecoin transaction value will come from B2B payments, with stablecoins becoming an integral part of international business transactions, treasury operations, and supply chain settlements.
The firm's analyst, Jawad Jahan, notes that stablecoins are not replacing existing payment infrastructure but are being adopted where their benefits are most pronounced, particularly in cross-border B2B transactions. To capitalize on this trend, Jahan advises stablecoin issuers to focus on integrating with enterprises and forming treasury partnerships.
This prediction aligns with a recent report by Chainalysis, which forecasts that stablecoins will become a cornerstone of global finance, with adjusted transaction volumes projected to reach $719 trillion by 2035.
