**Stablecoins Surge in 2024, Eye $300 Billion Mark in 2025**

Stablecoins, pegged to fiat currencies like the US dollar, hit a record $200 billion supply in 2024, marking a significant milestone in the crypto world. As 2025 approaches, industry experts predict this could rise to $300 billion, with USDT and USDC maintaining their lead due to their established credibility and liquidity.

Visa anticipates a spike in stablecoin-linked card demand, while Ripple's new stablecoin, RLUSD, targets cross-border payments. However, regulatory challenges persist, with global inconsistencies posing hurdles. The focus for 2025 includes layer 2 adoption, interoperability, and yield-generating stablecoins.
