Banks Fear Stablecoins as Yield Threatens Deposit Business
- Threat of Stablecoins: Analyst EGRAG CRYPTO claims that banks oppose stablecoins not due to their risks, but because they enable users to hold, transfer, and earn returns on dollars without relying on traditional bank deposits, potentially leading to deposit outflows.
- Disruption of Deposit Models: Stablecoins disrupt traditional banking profit models by separating custody, settlement, and yield, allowing users to earn approximately 5% risk-free returns through Treasury-backed stablecoins, thereby reducing reliance on banks.
- Potential Losses: An analysis by Standard Chartered estimates that US banks could lose around $500 billion in deposits to stablecoins by 2028, with regional banks facing the most exposure, which would significantly impact their funding models.
- Legislative Signals: During the recent Senate Banking Committee discussions on the CLARITY Act, the American Bankers Association sent over 8,000 letters to Senate offices opposing stablecoin yields, indicating the importance and potential impact of stablecoins in the financial sector.
