Overview
- USDCV becomes the first U.S. dollar–pegged stablecoin listed under Europe’s MiCA after Bullish Europe opened trading.
- Societe Generale‑FORGE says the token is backed 1:1 by cash or high‑quality collateral with custody handled by banking partners.
- Access is limited to non‑U.S. investors for now as SG‑FORGE awaits implementing rules despite the GENIUS Act’s passage.
- USDCV was introduced in June on Ethereum and Solana, expanding a suite that includes the 2023 MiCA‑compliant euro token EURCV.
- Bullish Europe, regulated by BaFin, pitches the listing to institutional clients, and an ECB advisor has noted dollar‑pegged coins make up about 99% of the global stablecoin market.
