Kraken Partners With Circle to Expand USDC Access and Add Euro Stablecoin EURC

The rollout emphasizes lower conversion costs with increased liquidity for stablecoin users.

Overview

  • Kraken will deepen support for USDC, providing greater liquidity and utility in on-chain applications.
  • Customers will face reduced conversion fees when using USDC on the exchange.
  • Circle’s fully reserved euro-pegged EURC will be introduced to offer a euro-denominated stablecoin option.
  • Integration will span Kraken App, Kraken Pro, Kraken Institutional, and the retail trading platform NinjaTrader.
  • Circle and Kraken position the move as building stablecoin infrastructure in a market where USDC ranks second to USDT and recent U.S. legislation has been supportive.
