A recent study reveals a promising future for stablecoins, digital currencies anchored to tangible assets, with an astonishing expansion that could bring their value to a staggering 2 trillion dollars by 2028. This prediction, which represents a tenfold increase from their current value of approximately 230 billion dollars, is based on the anticipation of new regulatory laws in the United States.
This exponential growth of stablecoins will not only transform the landscape of digital finance but will also create a greater need for U.S. Treasury bonds. Financial experts predict that the stablecoin sector will need to acquire the impressive sum of 1.6 trillion dollars in Treasury bills (T-bills) over the next four years.
This enormous amount of purchases could be enough to consume the entire new supply of bonds expected during a possible second term for Donald Trump. This situation would turn stablecoins into a key driver of demand for U.S. government debt securities, solidifying their role as an increasingly relevant player in global financial markets.
