According to CEX.IO, the total annual remittance amount of stablecoins is expected to reach $27.6 trillion (approximately ¥4,000 trillion) in 2024, surpassing the total remittance amount of credit card giants Visa and Mastercard by more than 7.68% in 2024.

In December 2024, the monthly remittance volume reached $719 billion (approximately ¥104 trillion), and in April 2025, it recorded a close $717.1 billion.
In this survey, 81% of small and medium-sized enterprises interested in cryptocurrency expressed interest in utilizing stablecoins to address financial challenges such as fees and transaction processing.
In the United States, legislation regarding the structure of stablecoins and the cryptocurrency market is being advanced. The Senate will soon hold a procedural vote on the stablecoin regulation bill.
What is a stablecoin?
It refers to a cryptocurrency whose price is always stable. Stablecoins are a type of cryptocurrency, and unlike volatile assets such as BTC, ETH, and XRP, they are backed by the U.S. dollar and other currencies and aim to maintain their value. In addition to U.S. dollar-backed stablecoins (USDT and USDC), there are also stablecoins that use algorithms.
Adoption is advancing by Fortune 500 companies.
According to the report, about 6 out of 10 executives from Fortune 500 companies responded that their company is currently "working on blockchain initiatives." This represents a 47% increase from the previous year.

Moreover, 46% of companies that have not yet implemented blockchain technology plan to adopt blockchain in some part of their operations within the next three years.
