BVNK survey finds 39% of crypto users receive income in stablecoins

A global survey commissioned by BVNK and conducted by YouGov found 39% of crypto users and prospective users across 15 countries receive income in stablecoins, while 27% use them for everyday payments, citing lower fees and faster cross-border transfers as key drivers.

The online survey of 4,658 respondents, carried out in September and October 2025 among adults who hold or plan to acquire cryptocurrency, showed stablecoin users hold an average of about $200 in their wallets globally, with holdings in high-income economies averaging around $1,000.

Seventy-seven percent said they would open a stablecoin wallet with their primary bank or fintech provider if offered, and 71% expressed interest in using a linked debit card to spend stablecoins. Those receiving income in stablecoins reported the assets make up about 35% of their annual earnings on average, and users sending cross-border payments noted fee savings of roughly 40% compared with traditional remittance methods.
