We are thrilled to announce a groundbreaking development in the world of digital currencies and global payments. EURC (Euro-Backed Digital Currency) has officially launched on the Stellar Network, ushering in a new era of real-time, global transactions. This momentous collaboration between Circle and the Stellar Development Foundation (SDF) brings forth a fiat-backed stablecoin that is set to transform the way businesses and individuals engage in cross-border transactions.
The Power of EURC on Stellar
EURC, similar to its counterpart USDC, operates under a full-reserve model, ensuring that it is always redeemable at a 1:1 ratio for the euro. By integrating EURC onto the Stellar Network, we introduce a digital representation of one of the most globally traded currencies. This exciting development empowers businesses and developers with a global euro digital currency that offers unparalleled speed, affordability, and reliability.
Real-Time, Global Payments
With EURC on Stellar, users can now send, spend, hold, and trade digital euros around the globe 24/7. The Stellar Network enables low-cost, near-instant transactions, making it an ideal platform for real-time foreign exchange and remittance services. Even those who do not have access to traditional banking services can now participate in the global economy with ease.
Advancing Financial Inclusion
At the core of Circle’s deep alliance with the Stellar Development Foundation lies a shared commitment to advancing financial inclusion. This collaboration aims to provide mobile-first, low-cost payment solutions to people worldwide, including those affected by humanitarian disasters. With the launch of EURC on Stellar, we are taking significant strides towards enhancing European remittance corridors, cross-border payments, treasury management, and aid disbursement.
Stellar and Circle: A Powerful Partnership
The integration of EURC on the Stellar Network builds upon the strong relationship between Circle and the Stellar Development Foundation. Together, we are working towards creating equitable access to the global financial system and revolutionizing the way individuals, businesses, and developers engage with digital currencies.
Unlocking Real-Time Payments
Developers, businesses, and individuals will reap the benefits of real-time payments facilitated by Stellar’s speed and low cost. EURC on Stellar presents yet another way to provide real-world utility to Stellar users, aligning with our mission to create a more equitable global financial system. The inclusion of EURC also expands the scope and optionality for existing Stellar products and solutions catering to euro-based customers, communities, and users.
Ripple Effects in the Ecosystem
The integration of EURC on the Stellar Network has already begun to make waves in the ecosystem. Ripio, a leading crypto company in Latin America expanding to Spain, has become the first to incorporate EURC on Stellar into their wallet app, enabling seamless deposit and withdrawal of Euros. This integration not only strengthens Ripio’s mission of accelerating crypto adoption but also contributes significantly to the development of the ecosystem.
Future Possibilities and Impact
EURC on Stellar opens up a world of opportunities, enabling further digital aid assistance and expanding the reach of relief funds to individuals in crisis. By integrating into bulk disbursement and cash assistance systems like Stellar Aid Assist, EURC aims to deliver relief funds quickly, affordably, and transparently to those affected by humanitarian crises.
Conclusion
The launch of EURC on the Stellar Network marks a significant milestone in the evolution of global payments. With its real-time capabilities, scalability, and the stability of being backed by the euro, EURC on Stellar has the potential to revolutionize the way we transact and interact with digital currencies. We are excited about the possibilities this integration presents and are committed to fostering financial inclusion and driving innovation in the global financial system.
