Three outlets agree EURC passed €400M in circulation around August 2026, but they give sharply different figures for how fast that supply grew over the past year.
Three outlets agree EURC passed €400M in circulation around August 2026, but they give sharply different figures for how fast that supply grew over the past year.
What all sources agree on
- Circle's euro-backed stablecoin EURC surpassed €400 million in circulation, announced around August 17, 2026.
- The growth was driven by adoption following the EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation.
- EURC was launched on Ethereum in June 2022 and later expanded to Avalanche, Stellar, Solana and Base.
- By the end of 2024, EURC's circulating supply was around €80 million.
- EURC reserves are segregated and subject to monthly third-party attestations, with 1:1 redemption for euros.
- The overall euro stablecoin market had grown to approximately €650 million by mid-2026.
- EURC is listed on exchanges including Coinbase, Kraken and Bitstamp, and integrated with payment and custody providers such as MoonPay, Transak, Mercuryo, Fireblocks, Copper and Cobo.
Where the reports disagree
1Rate of EURC supply growth over the past year
marks a 5x growth over the past year
Circle's euro stablecoin has doubled its supply in a year
after its supply more than doubled over the past year
What would settle it: Circle's own historical circulating-supply data for EURC (e.g., Circle Mint / EURC transparency page showing supply at the corresponding dates a year apart).
What to make of it
Treat the €400 million circulation milestone and MiCA-driven adoption as established; do not cite a specific growth multiple (doubled vs. 5x) as settled until Circle's own historical supply figures are checked.
