The recent decision by the United States Federal Reserve to cut interest rates will have a significant impact on the revenue of the top five centralized stablecoins.
Stablecoins collectively hold nearly $125 billion in US Treasury bills, which account for 80.2% of their reserves.
Each 50-basis point cut in interest rates will result in stablecoins losing approximately $625 million in interest income.
Further rate cuts in 2024 could reduce annual revenue for stablecoins by up to $1.5 billion.
