Euro-denominated stablecoins have reached approximately $1 billion in total circulating supply, according to industry data, though the figure represents a minimal fraction of Europe’s broader monetary system.

Summary
  • Euro-denominated stablecoins have surpassed $1 billion in circulation but still represent just 0.006% of the eurozone’s roughly $15.5 trillion M2 money supply.
  • After limited activity in 2020–2021, issuance is now spreading beyond Ethereum to networks including Solana, Polygon, Arbitrum, Base, Avalanche, and Stellar.
  • Euro stablecoins remain far smaller than dollar-based stablecoins and underrepresented relative to the euro’s real-world role.

The eurozone’s M2 money supply stands near $15.5 trillion, according to Token Terminal, placing euro stablecoins at roughly 0.006% of the underlying money stock.

Market capitalization data for tokenized euros shows limited activity through 2020 and 2021, followed by accelerated expansion beginning in late 2023 and continuing into 2024 and 2025, according to the report.

Ethereum accounts for the largest share of euro-denominated stablecoin issuance, though distribution has expanded across multiple blockchain networks including Arbitrum, Polygon, Base, Solana, Avalanche, and Stellar, the data shows.

The multi-chain expansion indicates that euro stablecoin issuance has moved beyond a single ecosystem, with issuers deploying tokenized euros across platforms focused on payments, settlements, and cross-border transfers.

The combined market capitalization remains substantially smaller than dollar-based stablecoins, which play a central role in cryptocurrency liquidity and global on-chain settlement, according to market observers.

Euro stablecoins have been in development for several years but remain largely underdeveloped relative to their potential addressable market, the data indicates. The gap between the euro’s real-world monetary presence and its on-chain representation could allow for expansion if regulatory clarity, institutional adoption, or payment integration increases.

One Of Frank Sinatra’s Most Famous Albums Is Back In The Spotlight

One Of Frank Sinatra’s Most Famous Albums Is Back In The Spotlight

The post One Of Frank Sinatra’s Most Famous Albums Is Back In The Spotlight appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Frank Sinatra’s The World We Knew returns to the Jazz Albums and Traditional Jazz Albums charts, showing continued demand for his timeless music. Frank Sinatra performs on his TV special Frank Sinatra: A Man and his Music Bettmann Archive These days on the Billboard charts, Frank Sinatra’s music can always be found on the jazz-specific rankings. While the art he created when he was still working was pop at the time, and later classified as traditional pop, there is no such list for the latter format in America, and so his throwback projects and cuts appear on jazz lists instead. It’s on those charts where Sinatra rebounds this week, and one of his popular projects returns not to one, but two tallies at the same time, helping him increase the total amount of real estate he owns at the moment. Frank Sinatra’s The World We Knew Returns Sinatra’s The World We Knew is a top performer again, if only on the jazz lists. That set rebounds to No. 15 on the Traditional Jazz Albums chart and comes in at No. 20 on the all-encompassing Jazz Albums ranking after not appearing on either roster just last frame. The World We Knew’s All-Time Highs The World We Knew returns close to its all-time peak on both of those rosters. Sinatra’s classic has peaked at No. 11 on the Traditional Jazz Albums chart, just missing out on becoming another top 10 for the crooner. The set climbed all the way to No. 15 on the Jazz Albums tally and has now spent just under two months on the rosters. Frank Sinatra’s Album With Classic Hits Sinatra released The World We Knew in the summer of 1967. The title track, which on the album is actually known as “The World We Knew (Over and…

CME Group to launch Solana and XRP futures options in October

CME Group to launch Solana and XRP futures options in October

The post CME Group to launch Solana and XRP futures options in October appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. CME Group is preparing to launch options on SOL and XRP futures next month, giving traders new ways to manage exposure to the two assets.  The contracts are set to go live on October 13, pending regulatory approval, and will come in both standard and micro sizes with expiries offered daily, monthly and quarterly. The new listings mark a major step for CME, which first brought bitcoin futures to market in 2017 and added ether contracts in 2021. Solana and XRP futures have quickly gained traction since their debut earlier this year. CME says more than 540,000 Solana contracts (worth about $22.3 billion), and 370,000 XRP contracts (worth $16.2 billion), have already been traded. Both products hit record trading activity and open interest in August. Market makers including Cumberland and FalconX plan to support the new contracts, arguing that institutional investors want hedging tools beyond bitcoin and ether. CME’s move also highlights the growing demand for regulated ways to access a broader set of digital assets. The launch, which still needs the green light from regulators, follows the end of XRP’s years-long legal fight with the US Securities and Exchange Commission. A federal court ruling in 2023 found that institutional sales of XRP violated securities laws, but programmatic exchange sales did not. The case officially closed in August 2025 after Ripple agreed to pay a $125 million fine, removing one of the biggest uncertainties hanging over the token. This is a developing story.
