Goldman Sachs CEO and former U.S. Treasury Secretary: Stablecoins will be “enormous” “You can use stablecoins to very effectively — particularly in small transactions; big transactions you use FedWire — to go from US dollar stablecoins to euros or yen or other things. I think it is enormous, and I think the stablecoin legislation is a big step in the right direction,” says former U.S. Secretary Treasury Steven Mnuchin. Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon agrees: “Higher speed, less friction.” Both also agree that stablecoins are not a threat to the U.S. dollar, and will in fact strengthen it. Mnuchin explains: “If you have stablecoins that are backed by U.S. Treasuries, I don’t think the U.S. needs to issue its own stablecoin. I think you’re going to see enormous use cases for these.” “And enormous demand for the dollar over time,” Solomon adds. “To me, [stablecoins] strengthen the moat around the dollar and the dollar’s position as the global reserve currency.” Roughly 53% of all stablecoins live on Ethereum (~$157 billion). If you exclude Tron, Ethereum’s stablecoin dominance jumps to 75%. Source: @GoldmanSachs (Mar 2026)
