Citigroup Forecasts $1.6 Trillion Stablecoin Market by 2030 Amid US Regulatory Push
Citigroup’s latest market report projects a seismic expansion for the stablecoin sector, anticipating a 7x supply surge within five years. The banking giant ties this growth trajectory to emerging US regulatory frameworks, noting the Trump administration’s January 2025 executive order establishing a crypto-focused working group.
The analysis highlights stablecoins’ pivotal role as fiat-pegged gateways bridging traditional finance and digital assets. While bullish on adoption curves, Citigroup’s report cautions about unresolved challenges facing these dollar-linked tokens, particularly around compliance infrastructure and reserve transparency.
