ARK Invest Report: Stablecoin Transaction Volume Reaches $15.6 Trillion in 2024, Surpassing Visa and Mastercard

According to a report by ARK Invest in "Big Ideas 2025", stablecoins are one of the fastest growing sectors in the digital asset field, despite experiencing a bear market for two years and a market value drop of over 70%. The growth of stablecoins has not been affected. By 2024, the transaction volume will reach 15.6 trillion US dollars, which is approximately 119% and 200% of the transaction volume of Visa and Mastercard, respectively. The monthly transaction volume of stablecoins reaches 110 million times, which is only 0.41% and 0.72% of the transaction volume processed by Visa and Mastercard, respectively. In other words, the single transaction amount of stablecoins is much higher than that of Visa and Mastercard.
