Societe Generale-FORGE Brings USD CoinVertible to MetaMask Through Consensys Partnership
SG Forge states that its MiCA-compliant dollar-pegged stablecoin USDCV will be integrated into MetaMask through Consensys, giving millions of users access to a regulated bank-issued digital asset.
Fact Check
The claim is strongly supported by the official SG-FORGE press release, “SOCIETE GENERALE-FORGE PARTNERS WITH CONSENSYS TO EXPAND GLOBAL ACCESS TO ITS USD COINVERTIBLE STABLECOIN INTO METAMASK, THE WORLD’S LEADING WEB3 WALLET | SG Forge.” That source explicitly says SG-FORGE is partnering with Consensys to integrate USD CoinVertible into MetaMask, describes USDCV as MiCA-compliant, and says this gives MetaMask’s millions of users access to a regulated stablecoin issued by a subsidiary of a major European bank. Secondary coverage surfaced in search results from Yellow, BanklessTimes, and Crypto Economy aligns with the same announcement. The wording “regulated bank-issued digital asset” is a fair paraphrase of the press release’s description, though the precise issuer language is “regulated stablecoin issued by the subsidiary of a major European bank.”
