EURC is a digital euro issued by Circle, also known as a stablecoin, and operates on several leading public blockchains. Designed to represent euros on the internet, EURC is backed 100% by euro-denominated reserves so that it's always redeemable 1:1 for EUR.
Circle publishes monthly attestation reports for EURC reserve holdings on Circle's Transparency page.

EURC is one of the first fully compliant stablecoins under the EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation. Learn more about how EURC meets these standards and what it means for builders and businesses in the EU and beyond on Circle's EURC page.
Circle launched EURC to bring the stability and global utility of the euro into a programmable, interoperable, and internet-native form. EURC combines the trust and compliance of the traditional financial system with the speed and composability of blockchain networks.
