The EU’s MiCA regulations, which came into effect on Dec. 30, will likely boost euro denominated stablecoins, JPMorgan (JPM) said in a research report on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

“Under MiCA, only compliant stablecoins can be used as trading pairs in regulated markets, prompting EU exchanges to adjust their offerings,” analysts led by Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou wrote.<\/p>\n

This has resulted in compliant stablecoins such as Circle’s EURC gaining strength, whereas non-compliant stablecoins like Tether’s EURT faced challenges, the Wall Street bank said.<\/p>\n

A stablecoin<\/a> is a type of crypto designed to hold a steady value and is usually pegged to the U.S. dollar, though other currencies and commodities such as gold are also used.<\/p>\n

Under the new rules stablecoin issuers such as Tether are required to maintain significant reserves in banks based in Europe and must secure licenses for trading, the report noted.<\/p>\n

This has led Tether to discontinue its EURT stablecoin and has resulted in the delisting of USDT<\/a> from a number of exchanges based in the EU, JPMorgan said.<\/p>\n

The stablecoin issuer said in November that it would phase out<\/a> its euro stablecoin, with users able to redeem tokens for up to 12 months.<\/p>\n

Still, Tether remains a “dominant force” in the global stablecoin market in spite of these challenges, the bank said, adding that is widely used in Asian markets where there are less restrictions.<\/p>\n

Tether’s investment in MiCA-compliant stablecoin issuers such as Quantoz Payments<\/a> shows it commitment to maintaining a presence in the EU, the report added.<\/p>\n

The company said in December that it had also invested<\/a> in European stablecoin issuer StablR.<\/p>\n
