Cross-border Use Cases Powering Innovation
BASINGSTOKE, England, July 4 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) -- A new study from Juniper Research, the foremost experts in emerging payments, has found that the value of payment transactions powered by stablecoins will exceed $187 billion globally by 2028, up from $53 billion in 2023.
The study found that stablecoins are making rapid progress in the cross-border market in particular, with them representing a key way to bypass slow, expensive and difficult-to-track existing cross‑border payment rails.
Stablecoins are cryptocurrencies that have their value pegged to a fiat currency or commodity, removing the volatility inherent to a typical cryptocurrency.

Cross-border Use Cases Promising, but Competition Growing
By 2028, the value of cross-border stablecoin payments will represent almost 73% of total stablecoin payments transaction values globally; showing the dominance of cross-border use cases. Stablecoins can be highly effective, as they remove stages in the cross-border process, increase speed of transactions and settlements, and greatly improve traceability. The research, however, identified the main obstacle for further growth as being acceptance, with stablecoin roll-outs needing new networks to be built and scaled.
