Global banking giant Citigroup expects the stablecoin market to grow tenfold, potentially reaching $2 trillion by 2030. The Citi Institute’s latest report suggests a base scenario of $1.5 trillion, leading to the $2 trillion estimate for stablecoin market growth by 2030. The study is optimistic because of regulatory advancements and growing institutional investment.

The research points to steady integration between stablecoins and traditional finance, especially in the U.S. dollar space. Citigroup anticipates that regulation and demand for U.S. dollar-backed assets will sustain stablecoin growth. The bank maintains a favorable outlook toward stablecoins because it identifies them as essential for building future global financial networks.

Adopting emerging markets and technological innovations accelerates the growth of stablecoins in both institutional and consumer market sectors. Stablecoins build momentum for their use in international payment transactions and provide funding solutions and operating needs for treasuries. Financial institutions use this adoption to transform their systems, particularly in countries experiencing high inflation alongside unstable currencies.

US Dollar-Backed Stablecoins to Dominate the Market

The Citi Institute report emphasizes the dominance of dollar-pegged stablecoins over the next five years. According to industry analysts, most global stablecoin markets are projected to stay linked to the US dollar value at a rate exceeding 90%, enhancing global market demand for the U.S. dollar.

Market stability and investor trust result from issuers’ mandatory requirement to maintain U.S. Treasury holdings. Because of this, issuers continue to accumulate substantial amounts of government debt. Closed financial relations between stablecoin providers and U.S. financial institutions will likely be created.

The financial authorities prioritize enhancing standards for issuer transparency alongside reserve management practices. Various legal authorities worldwide are harmonizing their regulations to let stablecoins join financial systems safely. These developments support Citigroup’s positive forecast for market growth.

Citigroup Warns Stablecoin Risks Threaten Growth

Citigroup outlines several risk factors that could limit the sector’s progress and reduce adoption rates. The system remains susceptible to three primary threats: deceptive practices, stablecoin disconnections from its value base, and worries about user anonymity. Each risk factor would destroy trust relationships, possibly leading to heightened regulatory control.

Market statistics, from a bearish perspective, indicate $500 billion as the maximum growth potential for 2030. Extreme situations involving adoption failures or systemwide breakdowns would lead to this outcome. Innovation continues to exist between a delicate range of adoption and regulatory control.

Stablecoin issuers and regulators actively cooperate to enhance the stability of their ecosystem. Real-time audits and regulatory oversight mechanisms are becoming increasingly prevalent in the market. The tools operate to stop system breakdowns and reestablish trust after operational problems occur.

Stablecoin Applications Expand Across Global Use Cases

Citigroup’s analysis highlights the growth of stablecoins in cross-border B2B transactions and consumer remittance services. Users abandon traditional payment methods because new payment methods achieve settlement speeds and reduced costs. Countries that fall under the emerging markets category demonstrate this transition, particularly Argentina, Nigeria, and Turkey.

Institutional investors conducted trials using stablecoins for settlements in their treasury operations and liquidity management purposes. Major asset management groups and fintech companies led these pilot projects. Their rise as users demonstrates their increasing trust in stablecoin technology and its legal foundation.

The report compares the upcoming stablecoin landscape to the development path of payment networks with cards. Citigroup expects a few major issuers to dominate the market. Favorable national policies will lead to both local and public-private stablecoin models appearing in the market.
