## USDC Market Cap Growth: Goldman Sachs Prediction Goldman Sachs projects that the market capitalization of USDC could surge to $77 billion by 2027, driven by increasing regulatory clarity and adoption in the US. This represents a significant growth opportunity for the stablecoin, potentially threatening Tether's dominance. The investment bank anticipates an average annual growth rate of around 40% for USDC, fueled by its compliance with anticipated US stablecoin regulations. According to Goldman Sachs' report, the $270 billion stablecoin market has the potential to revolutionize the traditional financial landscape, particularly in areas such as interbank payments and cross-border transactions. While stablecoins offer advantages in financial infrastructure, their impact on consumer payments may be limited. Companies like Visa and Mastercard are more likely to facilitate faster stablecoin payments rather than compete directly with them. ```
