EURR, a euro-pegged stablecoin (cryptocurrency designed to maintain a fixed value), added $665,300 in market capitalization within a 24-hour period after launching on August 26, 2026. The token was developed by Bridge Building S.A., the Luxembourg-based subsidiary of Bridge, which Stripe acquired for $1.1 billion in February 2025. Initially available to users in Denmark, Poland, and Portugal, EURR’s supply rose from roughly 374 tokens at launch to approximately 1.67 million by early September. Each token is backed 1:1 by euro-denominated cash held at regulated credit institutions, with holders entitled to redeem one EURR for one euro through Bridge Building S.A. The token operates on Ethereum and Polygon and falls under MiCA (the EU crypto-asset regulatory framework). Bridge holds Electronic Money Institution and Crypto-Asset Service Provider approvals, while its reserve transparency system is designed to allow users to verify backing without relying on periodic third-party attestations. Bridge is partnering directly with Revolut, which has been moving its EEA customers away from USDT, Tether’s dollar-backed stablecoin. The initial rollout uses Revolut’s user base in Denmark, Poland, and Portugal, with broader EEA expansion planned for later in 2026. EURR enters a market where Circle’s EURC has greater presence, while Tether has faced European friction because USDT has not secured MiCA authorization for its euro operations. The rapid supply increase could reflect institutional or high-volume minting for uses such as cross-border payroll, B2B settlement, or decentralized-exchange liquidity, although the source does not identify the specific activity. Bridge’s broader strategy is to provide stablecoin infrastructure for businesses to issue, manage, and redeem tokens, making EURR a visible product of the thesis behind Stripe’s acquisition of Bridge.
