Stablecoin volumes to reach $719T by 2035 as generational wealth shift speeds up crypto adoption

CoinDesk·2h ago·Positivity

What Happened

Blockchain research firm Chainalysis projects stablecoin transaction volumes will reach $719 trillion by 2035, driven by younger generations adopting crypto as default financial instruments. Stablecoins moved over $35 trillion on blockchain last year. A $100 trillion generational wealth transfer from Baby Boomers to Millennials and Gen Z is expected to accelerate adoption. Chainalysis estimates onchain payments could match Visa and Mastercard volumes by 2039, offering faster settlement and lower fees than traditional payment networks.
