$300B Stablecoin Wave Could Supercharge Dollar Demand

The Bank of England’s Carolyn Wilkins says dollar stablecoins could strengthen US currency dominance and funnel even more demand into Treasurys. This is no longer just a crypto liquidity story—it is becoming a sovereign-debt pipeline.

$300B+ stablecoins now circulate globally, with 98% tied to the US dollar
USDT and USDC held nearly $150B in Treasury bills at end-2025
Issuers bought roughly $33B of Treasurys during 2025, but mass redemptions could trigger forced selling

LaunchBar takeaway: stablecoin growth is quietly expanding dollar liquidity and Treasury demand, strengthening the macro case for regulated digital dollars. The risk trade is asymmetric: adoption supports USDT and USDC, while a redemption shock could amplify bond-market volatility fast.
