Author: Jae, PANews In the global stablecoin landscape exceeding $300 billion, where US dollar assets dominate with a 99% share, a non-mainstream category is quietly making a comeback. Dune data shows that the total market capitalization of euro stablecoins recently broke through $400 million for the first time in history, with a growth rate of over 170% since the beginning of this year. In the face of the massive size of US dollar stablecoins, although euro stablecoins account for only 0.14% of the global market, this force should not be underestimated. Against the backdrop of increasingly stringent requirements of the EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) Regulation and tightening regulatory walls, this counter-trend surge in data indicates that the crypto ecosystem in the Eurozone is undergoing a profound liquidity reshaping.
