What to know:
- JPMorgan said stablecoin supply is up about $100 billion this year to roughly $308 billion, led by USDT and USDC.
- The bank's analysts expect steady growth into 2028, but well below the most bullish projections.
- Trading demand still dominates, and payments adoption may lift stablecoin velocity more than supply, the report said.
Wall Street bank JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM) said the stablecoin supply could reach $500 billion to $600 billion by 2028, far short of the most bullish $2 trillion to $4 trillion calls.
Stablecoin demand is still primarily a crypto-market story, not a payments story, according to the largest U.S. bank by assets.

JPMorgan noted that the stablecoin market has grown about $100 billion this year to roughly $308 billion, led by Tether’s USDT and Circle’s (CRCL) USDC.
Demand is still driven mainly by crypto trading and collateral needs across derivatives and decentralized finance (DeFi), with derivatives venues adding about $20 billion in stablecoin holdings alongside a surge in perpetual futures activity, the report said.
"The vast majority of stablecoin demand stems from their use as cash or collateral in the crypto ecosystem to facilitate crypto trading including derivatives trading, DeFi lending and borrowing," wrote analysts led by Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou, in the Wednesday report.
Stablecoins are cryptocurrencies pegged to assets such as fiat currencies or gold, but most often the U.S. dollar. They underpin much of the crypto economy, serving as payment rails and a tool for moving money across borders.
The analysts said payments are a smaller driver today but could grow as more providers test stablecoin-based rails for cross-border transfers.
Still, the report said wider payment use doesn’t automatically require a much larger stablecoin float because velocity, how quickly tokens circulate, can rise as integration deepens.
Banks and payment networks are also moving to protect their role in institutional flows through tokenized deposits and other blockchain initiatives, while Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) efforts could offer regulated alternatives that compete with private stablecoins, the report added.

Pictures Key Facts “One Battle After Another” boasts a nearly perfect 97 out of a possible 100 on Metacritic based on its first 31 reviews, making it the highest-rated movie of this decade on Metacritic’s best movies of all time list. The movie also has a 96% score on Rotten Tomatoes based on the first 56 reviews, with only two reviews considered “rotten,” or negative. The Associated Press hailed the movie as “an American masterpiece,” noting the movie touches on topical political themes and depicts a society where “gun violence, white power and immigrant deportations recur in an ongoing dance, both farcical and tragic.” The movie stars DiCaprio as an ex-revolutionary who reunites with former accomplices to rescue his 16-year-old daughter when she goes missing, and Anderson has said the movie was inspired by the 1990 novel, “Vineland.” Most critics have described the movie as an action thriller with notable chase scenes, which jumps in time from DiCaprio’s character’s early days with fictional revolutionary group, the French 75, to about 15 years later, when he is pursued by foe and military leader Captain Steven Lockjaw, played by Sean Penn. The Warner Bros.-produced film was made on a big budget, estimated to be between $130 million and $175 million, and co-stars Penn, Benicio del Toro, Regina Hall and Teyana Taylor.
