Binance Research says crypto trading platforms are increasingly serving as a pathway into global equity markets, especially for users in emerging economies, which account for about 93% of those trading stocks through Binance.
Building on this shift, the report projects that by 2031, crypto exchanges could help funnel around $2 trillion in additional capital into stock markets while also bringing in nearly 300 million new investors worldwide.
Looking further ahead, it adds that in a stronger growth scenario, crypto users could contribute up to $5 trillion in yearly incremental equity inflows over the next five years.
The report also highlights growing use of stablecoin-based settlement for stock trading and tokenized equities, noting that TradFi-linked perpetual contracts now account for about 10% of stablecoin trading volume.
