Stablecoin remittance costs 84 percent lower than traditional transfers
A study found that stablecoin-based remittances cost about 84 percent less than traditional overseas transfers. Borderless reported that sending $200 cost $2 via stablecoin networks, versus $12.72 through conventional channels. The comparison used Borderless’ 2026 third-quarter pricing and World Bank data for the same period in 2025. Costs were also lower in Sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America. Stablecoin payments settled within minutes via local networks, while SWIFT typically settled the next business day.
