Bitpanda, a platform specializing in digital assets, has announced a collaboration with Societe Generale-FORGE (SG-FORGE), an integrated and regulated subsidiary of Société Générale Group. Through this partnership, Bitpanda will offer the EUR CoinVertible (EURCV) stablecoin, managed by SG-FORGE and compliant with MiCA1 regulations, to the entire European market. This agreement stems from the commitment of both companies to increase accessibility and adoption of digital assets across Europe.
Thanks to Bitpanda’s reputation and its extensive user base, European investors will have access to a stable, secure, and accessible digital currency. As a dedicated issuer of a reliable stablecoin, SG-FORGE focuses on delivering seamless financial experiences to its users.
Regulated stablecoins, such as EURCV, aim to bridge the gap between traditional finance and new digital economy products. They provide a stable and reliable store of value, particularly given the inherent volatility of cryptocurrencies.
With this collaboration, EURCV can expand across Europe and be used for cross-border payments, remittance transfers, or daily transactions, thanks to the ease and security offered by Bitpanda’s ecosystem.
Lukas Enzersdorfer-Konrad, Deputy CEO of Bitpanda, stated that euro-based stablecoins “are essential for the future of digital assets in Europe. The landscape is changing, the integration with traditional finance is increasing, and fully regulated stablecoins are the key to making this possible. We will work with Societe Generale-FORGE to bring that future closer.”
Jean-Marc Stenger, CEO of Societe Generale-FORGE, explained that this partnership “is a crucial step toward realizing our vision of making stablecoins a central component of the global financial system. Together with Bitpanda, we are confident in our ability to offer European users a stable, secure, and accessible digital currency.”
