BTCCSquare news:

A coalition of Europe's banking heavyweights—including BNP Paribas, ING, and UniCredit—is launching a euro-denominated stablecoin backed by systemic lenders. The initiative, targeting a 2026 debut, confronts the dollar's dominance in the $305 billion stablecoin market, where euro-pegged tokens represent a mere 0.2% share.

Fireblocks will power the infrastructure, deploying compliance-ready smart contracts and transaction monitoring aligned with MiCAR. The Dutch Central Bank's pending approval for Qivalis, the project's Amsterdam-based vehicle, could reshape institutional crypto flows.
