Single Currency-Pegged Tokens Surge Following MiCA Rollout.
The post Single Currency-Pegged Tokens Surge Following MiCA Rollout. appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The euro stablecoin market has rebounded in the year since the European Union’s (EU) Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA) came into force, with market capitalization doubling after regulations governing the tokens rolled out in June 2024, according to a new report. The “Euro Stablecoin Trends Report 2025” from London-based payments processing company Decta points a potential shift for the tokens, whose value is pegged to the single European currency and which have historically struggled to gain traction against their U.S. dollar-pegged counterparts. The swing contrasts with the 48% contraction experienced the year before, according to the report. It also contrasts with a 26% advance in total stablecoin market cap. Euro coin market cap climbed to some $500 million by May 2025, the report said, mainly due to improved issuer obligations and standardized reserve requirements. It’s now $680 million, according to data tracked by CoinGecko. Even so, that’s just a tiny fraction of the $300 billion held in U.S. dollar-pegged tokens, a market dominated by Tether’s USDT with Circle Internet’s (CRCL) USDC in second place. Growth has been especially concentrated among a few standout tokens. EURS, issued by Malta-based Stasis, posted the most dramatic gains, soaring 644% million to $283.9 million by October 2025. Circle Internet’s EURC and EURCV, from Societe Generale’s SG-Forge, also recorded significant gains. Transaction activity surged in parallel. Monthly euro-stablecoin volume rose nearly ninefold after MiCA’s implementation US$3.83 billion. EURC and EURCV were among the biggest beneficiaries, with volume expanding 1,139% and 343% respectively, driven by increased usage in payments, fiat on-ramps and digital-asset trading. Consumer awareness also appears to be climbing. Decta found substantial spikes in search activity across the EU, including 400% growth in Finland and 313.3% in Italy, with smaller but steady increases in markets such as Cyprus and Slovakia.
