Wall Street is increasingly turning its attention to stablecoins — digital currencies pegged to traditional fiat currencies like the US dollar. Expectations are sky-high: according to a new report from Citizens JMP Securities, the total value of stablecoins could surge more than tenfold by 2030 — from today’s $225 billion to $3 to $4 trillion!

🔹 Up to $100 Billion in Annual Revenue for Issuers

Devin Ryan, Head of Fintech Research at Citizens JMP, estimates that stablecoin issuers could generate up to $100 billion per year in revenue if this growth materializes — even if interest rates return to normalized levels.

"Even with interest rates below our $3 trillion estimate, we see potential for nearly $100 billion in annual earnings — through fees for some, or as a way to offset declining transaction revenues," Ryan noted.

🔹 Changing Policies, New Rules, and Big Players Joining the Game

As the White House begins rolling back crypto-related policies from the Biden era, a regulatory breakthrough may be coming. The US Congress could pass the GENIUS Act — a bill focused on stablecoin legislation — as early as August 2025.

Meanwhile, regulation is advancing globally. The MiCA law is already active in the EU, and countries like Singapore are developing their own frameworks. These efforts aim to promote global adoption of stablecoins beyond just crypto trading.

🔹 Citi: Stablecoins Are More Than Just Crypto Bridges

Alex Saunders of Citigroup supports this bullish outlook, suggesting stablecoins could reach $1.6 to $3.7 trillion in value by 2030 — and not just because of their role in crypto trading.

“There are arguments for stablecoins as an alternative store of value or protection against inflation and political instability,” he wrote. This is particularly relevant in countries with volatile currencies or economic turbulence.

🔹 From Remittances to Boosting U.S. Debt Demand

Ryan also highlights that stablecoins now serve real-world financial purposes — from remittances to business payments and e-commerce. They play a growing role in tokenized financial markets, offering a practical way to preserve value in inflation-hit economies.

Interestingly, stablecoins could also boost demand for U.S. debt. Since many stablecoins are backed by U.S. Treasury bills, increased demand for these tokens naturally raises demand for government debt.

“This could provide structural support worth trillions for U.S. debt financing,” Ryan said. Saunders echoed this, arguing that the U.S. dollar’s global dominance is reflected in stablecoin issuance, not diminished by it.

📈 Crypto and Stocks on the Rise

At the time of writing, Bitcoin is holding strong above $105,000, signaling renewed market strength. Equities are also climbing — the Dow Jones jumped over 200 points, the S&P 500 rose 0.6%, and the Nasdaq gained 0.8%.

Tech stocks led the rally: Nvidia’s shares rose nearly 3%, briefly making it the most valuable publicly traded company in the world, overtaking even Microsoft.

💡 What do you think? Will stablecoins become the new backbone of global finance?
