Explosive Prediction! Stablecoins Skyrocket to $2 Trillion in 3 Years, U.S. Treasuries Will Be "Bought Out"!

Standard Chartered's latest report indicates that if the U.S. passes new cryptocurrency regulations this year, the stablecoin market could exceed $2 trillion by 2028, directly triggering a $1.6 trillion buying frenzy of U.S. Treasuries!

Currently, the total market value of stablecoins is about $230 billion, primarily pegged to U.S. short-term Treasuries. Analyst Jeff Kendrick at Standard Chartered predicts that after the new regulations take effect, stablecoin issuers will purchase $400 billion in U.S. Treasuries each year—enough to absorb all the short-term bonds issued by the U.S. government during the same period.

**The Largest "Buyer" of U.S. Treasuries is About to Change**

The report shows that stablecoins will surpass foreign investors to become the number one buyer in the U.S. Treasury market. Unlike foreign investments that are diversified, stablecoin issuers focus on short-term Treasuries, perfectly matching their safety and liquidity needs.

**A New Pillar of Dollar Hegemony**

This demand is reshaping the global financial landscape:

- For every $1 increase in stablecoin reserves, it means an additional $1 flows into the U.S. Treasury market

- Effectively hedging against the impact of trade wars on the dollar

- Further solidifying the dollar's dominance in the digital currency space

This year, the market value of stablecoins has risen by 11%, with leading players Tether and USD Coin continuing to lead. As the "Genius Act" and the "Stable Act" progress, regulatory clarity will accelerate the industry's explosion.

Kendrick specifically points out: "When stablecoins make the dollar more usable, the demand for dollar assets will grow like a snowball. The network effect of digital currencies will make the dollar's throne even more unshakeable."

**Ultimate Paradox**

Ironically, the more the decentralized crypto world pursues decentralization, the more deeply it binds itself to the dollar system. The deeper stablecoins penetrate the DeFi and payment sectors, the more dollar reserves are needed—ultimately, the biggest winner in this game is still the dollar.
