Brad Garlinghouse Says Stablecoin Market Cap Will Hit $3 Trillion by 2031
summary
Predicts $3 trillion by 2031 for stablecoin market cap, arguing growth comes from on‑chain migration of real‑world payments, not just crypto native use. Cites a $13T payments opportunity via G Treasury / Ripple Treasury and an acquisition of Equiniti to onboard issuers, expects ~30% of that flow on chain in five years, and points to regulatory clarity from the CLARITY Act plus Circle IPO momentum and Ripple’s XRP court win as enablers.
