Goldman Sachs: The Current Market Is Experiencing the Beginning of a Stablecoin 'Gold Rush'

BlockBeats News, August 21st. A research report released by Will Nance and others from Goldman Sachs Bank pointed out that the current market is at the beginning of a stablecoin "gold rush."

The report stated: "Stablecoins represent a $2.71 trillion global market. We believe USDC will benefit from its market share growth both within and outside of Binance's platform, as ongoing stablecoin legislation legitimizes the ecosystem and as the crypto ecosystem expands, which may also be catalyzed by legislation. Based on current trends and announced initiatives, USDC is expected to grow by $770 billion between 2024 and 2027, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 40%."

The bank concluded, "Therefore, in the long run, the payment sector is the most obvious source of stablecoin expansion. This opportunity has barely been tapped into so far, with most stablecoin activity being driven by cryptocurrency trading and non-US dollar demand outside the U.S." (Jinse)
