The latest 2026 Global Outlook report released by the global investment management giant BlackRock mentions an interesting shift — stablecoins have completely bid farewell to the niche era. In their view, stablecoins are no longer just niche products in the crypto market, but have evolved into an important bridge connecting traditional finance and digital asset liquidity, serving as a key component of core infrastructure.

The report hints that stablecoins have the potential to profoundly impact the settlement methods and liquidity structures of global financial markets. The underlying logic is also easy to understand — institutional investors' long-term valuation of stablecoins is clearly upgrading. This shift in attitude is a positive signal for the industry's overall maturity and the deep involvement of traditional financial institutions.

Stablecoins are moving from the periphery to the core infrastructure, and BlackRock's recent stance is quite significant. The upgrade in institutional awareness = increased liquidity depth = reduced market clearing pressure, with a clear logical chain. But the key still depends on who will serve as the counterparty for clearing and settlement... --- BlackRock's report sounds impressive, but at its core, it's about paving the way for their own products. Stablecoins do have potential, but it's a bit early to talk about "far-reaching impacts" now; it depends on whether user retention can keep pace with growth. --- Wait, even BlackRock is starting to emphasize the infrastructural attributes of stablecoins? This buy-in signal is even more important than technical analysis... Institutional recognition is in place, and the industry's maturity is likely to jump. --- That's right but not sharp enough; changes in liquidity structure ≠ the actual arrival of use cases. Currently, most stablecoins are still used as arbitrage tools, not as real payment bridges. --- BlackRock's endorsement sounds impressive, but I'm more concerned whether this upgrade in awareness can truly translate into deeper trading partner liquidity. Otherwise, it's just hype and speculation. --- May I ask, after stablecoins become mainstream, do the value transfer chains of small-cap tokens need to be restructured? The tokenomics involved here have some significant hidden risks.

BlackRock's recent statements, are they serious? Are institutions only now recognizing stablecoins? We've known for a long time that this stuff is valuable.

BlackRock has said it all, stablecoins are indeed taking off Traditional finance has finally quietly acknowledged us haha How much longer until it truly lands? This time, stablecoins are really going to the shore Institutional entry is a signal, we're still early But it depends on which stablecoin can survive until the end

Blackstone is starting to talk bullish about stablecoins, so traditional finance is really about to enter the scene. --- Stablecoins have evolved from niche to infrastructure, and this transition is truly astonishing... Institutions are starting to smell the opportunity. --- Wait, is BlackRock paving the way for its own stablecoin product? Very shrewd. --- Basically, institutions have discovered a new way to profit from stablecoins, haha. --- Even BlackRock is touting the prospects of stablecoins. I feel like the next bear market is coming... --- Innovation in settlement layers is indeed a necessity, but this report might be a bit overly optimistic. --- Participation from traditional financial institutions ≠ stablecoins are truly winning. Don’t be fooled. --- Interesting, stablecoins have become the new financial infrastructure? I buy this logic.

BlackRock's recent statements are essentially "legitimizing" stablecoins. Institutions are indeed starting to treat them as infrastructure. Major traditional financial giants have acknowledged this, indicating that stablecoins are truly coming of age. It's been obvious for a while that stablecoins are the key to connecting two worlds. Institutional entry means the ecosystem is about to take off, and the pace looks good. BlackRock's statement is like an official stamp of approval. The next step is to see who can secure a position. Honestly, no matter how bullish Bitcoin and Ethereum are, without the liquidity support of stablecoins, it's all pointless. As expected, big funds still hold the power. Once they approve, the industry changes. From niche to infrastructure, this transition is happening pretty fast. Wait, does this mean compliant stablecoins are about to rise?

BlackRock says stablecoins are infrastructure, is mainstream finance far behind? --- Mainstream institutions have finally understood that stablecoins are indeed not just a toy in the crypto world. --- The settlement layer revolution is coming, but it won't count until USDT/USDC are truly widespread. --- The change in institutional attitude is a good sign, but we're just worried it might be all talk. --- Stablecoins connect traditional finance and crypto; this logic should have been clear long ago. --- Really, BlackRock's report hits the point—liquidity is the key. --- Another big company report; real gold and silver allocations are the proof.
