Euro Coin: Circle Launches Stablecoin on Avalanche Blockchain to Facilitate Fast & Efficient Payment Systems

Circle has launched a euro-based stablecoin on the Avalanche blockchain to deliver prompt and efficient payments and financial services. The Euro Coin (EUROC) launch is the first of a series of anticipated multi-chain launches to aid developers and users. According to Circle’s team, Euro Coin availability on Avalanche increases liquidity and provides users an additional transactional option alongside USD Coin (USDC). Last year, Circle launched EUROC as a regulated stablecoin backed 100% by euro reserves. Each Euro Coin has an equivalent euro held in custody at financial institutions regulated by the US government.

Execs Weigh In on Circle Euro Stablecoin

VP of Product at Circle, Joao Reginatto, commented on benefits of the Euro stablecoin. According to Reginatto, Avalanche developers with apps that support USDC can easily integrate EUROC because both stablecoins have similar contract designs. The Circle senior executive also said:

“When we first introduced Euro Coin on Ethereum last year, we wanted anyone with an internet connection to have access to the euro across borders and time zones. By launching Euro Coin on Avalanche’s fast and efficient platform, we can help developers and their users experience near-instant, more cost-effective financial transactions and unlock new possibilities for payments, remittances, and 24/7 FX.”

Meanwhile, John Nahas, Vice President of Business Development at Avalanche developer Ava Labs also discussed the possibilities of Euro Coin. Describing the arrival EUROC on Avalanche as a “pivotal moment” that unlocks “new possibilities for our developers and end users,” Nahas said:

“We continue to see great adoption and volume behind Circle’s USDC and expect great feedback and usage of Euro Coin on Avalanche.”

Furthermore, the Ava Labs Business Development VP added that the “trusted and fully reserved” EUROC token would accelerate decentralized finance (DeFi) adoption. Nahas opined that DeFi continues to make inroads into a “multi-currency, cross-border environment” via instant payments and remittances, and Euro Coin would be an additional boon.

Several popular wallets and apps would support Euro Coin on the Avalanche blockchain. These include Coinbase Wallet, Core, MetaMask, Curve, Dexalot, BENQI, Cables, GMX, NFT-TiX, Pangolin, Shift Markets, Trader Joe, and Platypus.
