Graham Krizek, founder and CEO of Voltage, predicts the Lightning Network will capture billions in global stablecoin volume within the next few years.
Bitcoin’s layer-2 scaling platform, Lightning Network, could see a surge in stablecoin volume over the next couple of years, driven by increased retail and institutional adoption, according to industry experts.
Speaking to Cointelegraph, Graham Krizek, founder and CEO of Lightning Network payments provider Voltage, said increased adoption of the layer-2 network will see it handle 5% of the global stablecoin volume as early as 2028.
Current daily stablecoin volume is around $180 billion, according to CoinGecko, which means there could be as much as $9 billion traded on LN using current figures. This will likely increase over the coming years as stablecoin regulations such as the GENIUS Act are rolled out in the United States and globally.
