JPMorgan: Stablecoins are the "cash infrastructure" of cryptocurrency, and the market share of tokenized money market funds is unlikely to exceed 10%-15%
JPMorgan's latest report points out that although tokenized money market funds have revenue potential, they still only account for about 5% of the broader "stablecoin system," and the core position of stablecoins in the crypto ecosystem is unlikely to be replaced in the short term.
The report states that stablecoins have become the default "cash tool" for trading, collateral, settlement, cross-border payments, and liquidity management, widely used in centralized exchanges and DeFi protocols, while tokenized money market funds are constrained by their securities characteristics, subject to registration, disclosure, and transfer restrictions, resulting in structural regulatory disadvantages.
Analysts at JPMorgan, led by Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou, expect that without significant changes in the regulatory environment, the market size of tokenized money market funds is unlikely to exceed 10% to 15% of the overall stablecoin market. Current demand is mainly concentrated among crypto-native investors seeking yield and institutional funds looking to balance on-chain settlement with traditional asset protection.
The report also notes that although tokenized funds have advantages such as near real-time settlement, 24/7 transfers, and automated clearing, their growth is still constrained by liquidity, counterparty risk, and regulatory uncertainty. JPMorgan believes that in the absence of regulatory easing, these products will struggle to challenge the infrastructure-level position of stablecoins in the crypto market.
