Citibank: Growth of Stablecoins Drives Demand for U.S. Short-term Treasury Bonds, Reflecting Dollar Dominance
According to a report by CoinDesk, Citigroup's latest report indicates that as the use of stablecoins in the crypto market and traditional financial sectors continues to grow, the demand for U.S. short-term Treasury bonds is also increasing. The report emphasizes that the dominance of dollar-backed stablecoins (such as USDT) in crypto trading and blockchain payments reflects the status of the dollar as a global reserve currency. Related legislation being considered by Congress may further solidify this trend by requiring reserves to hold short-term government debt. Meanwhile, traditional financial giants like PayPal and Visa are also beginning to explore stablecoin application scenarios. Citigroup predicts that by 2030, the stablecoin market size could reach $1.6 to $3.7 trillion.

EIA expects Brent crude spot prices to remain at $100 per barrel for the rest of the year and raises the average price forecasts for this year and next.
The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) has raised its forecast for average Brent crude oil prices in 2026 and 2027 to $97 and $86, respectively, reflecting pressures from global inventory declines, Middle East supply disruptions, and rising transportation costs. As oil production in the Middle East gradually recovers and global inventories rebound from low levels, the EIA expects the average spot price of Brent crude to fall to $87 per barrel in the second quarter of 2027, and further decline to $77 per barrel by the fourth quarter.
