Stablecoin Market Poised to Hit $1 Trillion by 2026

2025-09-11 11:32

The stablecoin market is projected to reach a $1 trillion valuation by the end of 2026, driven by increased adoption in emerging markets such as Nigeria, India, and Indonesia. Currently valued at $300 billion, with $165 billion on Ethereum, the market has grown 17.2% year-to-date. This growth is fueled by the necessity for stablecoins in business payments and cross-border transactions, as highlighted by Ray Youssef, CEO of NoOnes. Despite Tether's dominance, the stablecoin ecosystem is diversifying with new entrants like Ethena's USDe gaining traction. The expansion is supported by regulatory frameworks outside the U.S. and strong on-chain metrics, positioning stablecoins as a crucial component of crypto liquidity.
