Nine leading European banks, including ING, UniCredit, KBC, and CaixaBank, are collaborating to launch a euro-backed stablecoin that meets the EU’s MiCAR regulations. This innovative digital currency aims to enable fast, secure, and affordable payments across Europe. Targeted for launch in the latter half of 2026, the stablecoin will offer a strong European alternative to US dollar-based stablecoins, enhancing the region’s digital payment system through blockchain technology for improved efficiency and transparency.
