Original Author: Editor Jr., BlockTempo
The U.S. listed cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase released its latest quarterly report on the "State of Cryptocurrency" yesterday (10th), revealing the rapid adoption of blockchain technology and cryptocurrency among global enterprises. The report indicates that about 60% of executives from Fortune 500 companies stated that their companies are currently "committed to blockchain projects," showing that blockchain technology is becoming a key driving force for corporate transformation.
The report cites a survey conducted by EY-Parthenon in January 2025, which found that nearly one-fifth of Fortune 500 executives view blockchain projects as central to their long-term strategy, an increase of 47% from the previous year. Additionally, Coinbase stated that over four-fifths of institutional investors plan to increase their investments in cryptocurrency by 2025, indicating a growing confidence in the market for digital assets.
Significant Growth in Blockchain Adoption Among SMEs
The report also points out that the blockchain adoption rate among small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) has significantly increased, with more and more SMBs beginning to test cryptocurrency payment tools and stablecoins. Over 80% of surveyed SMBs indicated that cryptocurrency can effectively address specific financial "pain points," such as streamlining invoice management and accounts receivable processes. Among SMBs that have not yet adopted cryptocurrency, 46% plan to integrate blockchain technology into their operations within the next three years.
The report further notes that nearly three-quarters of respondents believe that regulatory transparency will be the "next catalyst" for industry growth. Coinbase emphasizes that the U.S. needs legislation, such as the "GENIUS Stablecoin Act" and the "CLARITY Market Structure Act," to realize the full potential of cryptocurrency and promote innovation.
Stablecoins Are Becoming the Core Force of Blockchain Applications
In addition, regarding the stablecoin market, Coinbase's survey shows that stablecoins are becoming the core force of blockchain applications, with global stablecoin holders exceeding 161 million, and supply increasing by 54% year-on-year. The annual transfer volume of stablecoins is expected to reach $27.6 trillion in 2024, surpassing the total transaction volume of Visa and Mastercard in the same year by 7.68%. December 2024 set a record for monthly transfer volume at $719 billion, followed closely by $717 billion in April 2025, demonstrating the strong potential of stablecoins in instant global payments.
Coinbase emphasizes that the application scenarios for stablecoins include nearly instant low-cost cross-border remittances, reduced payment processing fees, improved payroll efficiency, combating inflation, and providing a payment bridge for the unbanked. Stablecoins and blockchain technology are reshaping the global financial system, with 2025 expected to be a breakthrough year for stablecoins.
