📌 President of Ripple: The year 2026 will change the crypto industry

• Stablecoins will become the basic infrastructure for global settlements (B2B payments have already reached $76 billion per year)

• By the end of the year, companies will hold more than $1 trillion in digital assets, about 50% of Fortune 500 will create strategies to work with crypto

• More than half of the top 50 banks in the world will establish new partnerships for storing digital assets in 2026

• Blockchain and AI will begin to massively automate financial operations (liquidity management, real-time asset rebalancing)

In 2026, 5-10% of settlements in capital markets will move to blockchain. This is no longer an experiment, but full-scale implementation.
