Euro stablecoins double in a year, but still lag far behind the US dollar

[BlockBeats] One year after the implementation of the EU’s MiCA regulatory framework, the euro stablecoin market is finally showing some signs of improvement. According to the latest data from Coingecko, the current total market cap of euro stablecoins is about $683 million, which has doubled compared to a year ago. However, when you compare this to the more than $30 billion market size of USD stablecoins, it still looks pretty insignificant.

The recently released “2025 Euro Stablecoin Trend Report” by payment company Decta highlighted an interesting phenomenon—the growth is basically concentrated among a few top players. For example, EURS saw its market cap increase by 6.44%, while Circle’s EURC and Société Générale’s EURCV performed even more strongly, with trading volumes skyrocketing by 1,139% and 343%, respectively—an impressive growth rate.

What’s even more telling is user interest. In Finland, searches for euro stablecoins jumped by 400%, and in Italy, they rose by 313.3%. Even smaller markets like Cyprus and Slovakia have started to see steady growth. It appears that after regulatory clarity, Europeans are gradually becoming more comfortable with local stablecoins. Still, catching up to the dominance of USD stablecoins is going to be a long journey.

Doubling is still child’s play; it’s still far from being comparable to USD stablecoins.

Doubling sounds like a lot, but it's still ten times behind the dollar. Europe still has a long way to go with this move.

Doubling is not enough; USD stablecoins are simply not in the same league.

euros doubling is cool and all, but ngl that's still pocket change compared to usdc/usdt monopoly. the concentration risk tho... 80% growth in a handful of tokens? that's giving centralized vibes fr

Even after doubling, it's only 680 million. USD stablecoins are at 30 billion—this gap is a bit ridiculous. Head players are monopolizing the market. How are other coins supposed to survive? Finns are searching like crazy—up 400%. Looks like Europeans are finally waking up. Has a whole year of MiCA been wasted? The impact doesn't seem that obvious. Circle and Societe Generale's latest moves are insane—the trading volume is exploding. Euro stablecoins are still too niche; the mainstream is still USD USDT. Wait, wasn’t the data from Italy unfinished? After all this, it's still the giants feasting while retail investors just get the scraps.

well technically that 683m figure is just... embarrassing when you squint at the dollar stablecoin empire lol. 40x gap is not the vibe we're going for

Even if the euro stablecoin doubles, it still can’t compete with the US dollar. The gap is just too big... Looks like US dollar hegemony will continue to dominate for a few more years.
