According to Cointelegraph, in February 2026, the monthly trading volume of stablecoins reached $7.2 trillion, surpassing the $6.8 trillion of the U.S. Automated Clearing House (ACH) network for the first time. Data from Artemis shows that stablecoins are becoming the infrastructure for global payments: "No banks, no weekends, no borders."

In March, the trading volume of stablecoins continued to hit new highs, reaching $7.5 trillion. In the first quarter of 2026, the total supply of stablecoins reached $315 billion, accounting for 75% of the total cryptocurrency trading volume. Analysts at Standard Chartered Bank expect the total market value of stablecoins to reach $2 trillion by 2028. The content head of trading firm GSR stated that banks or fintech companies that ignore the explosive growth in this area will face a crisis.
