Schuman Financial announced a native integration of its MiCA-compliant euro stablecoin EURØP onto the XRP Ledger (XRPL). „This marks a major step toward bringing compliant euro-denominated stablecoins into active use on one of the world’s most widely used blockchains.” – according to the press release.
EURØP is a fully euro-backed and redeemable stablecoin issued by Schuman Financial, a licensed EMT issuer regulated by the ACPR, the supervisory authority of the French Central Bank. In addition, EURØP reserves are regularly audited by KPMG and safeguarded at Europe’s leading financial institutions including Societe Generale.
“EURØP on the XRPL combines the resilience of a global blockchain with euro-native liquidity and compliance at its core. This will give Europe and euro-denominated financial markets an integral infrastructure for the next wave of financial innovation, which is happening on-chain,” says Martin Bruncko, Founder and CEO of Schuman Financial.
This integration brings a euro-native settlement asset to XRPL, an institution-ready Layer 1 blockchain. „Over the past decade, the XRPL has processed over 3.3 billion transactions, supporting over six million active wallets with a network of over 200 validators, making XRPL an ideal environment for stablecoins like EURØP. EURØP will enable use cases including DeFi applications, tokenized RWAs, B2B and B2C payment flows, and more.” – the company said.
For Schuman Financial, this is just the first step on a roadmap built around euro-denominated payment use cases across the ecosystem, powering the euro leg of on-chain transactions.
“The launch of EURØP on the XRP Ledger demonstrates how stablecoins can meet the high standards set by MiCA while unlocking new possibilities for onchain use cases such as payments and real-world asset tokenization. With Europe putting in place clear, supportive regulation and institutional adoption accelerating, the region is emerging as a key market for stablecoin innovation. We’re proud to work with companies like Schuman Financial to lay the foundation for enterprise-grade infrastructure that supports Europe’s blockchain economy,” says Cassie Craddock, Managing Director, UK & Europe at Ripple.
The announcement follows the momentum around euro stablecoins across the continent, as institutions prepare for MiCA enforcement and seek digital currencies that meet European regulatory standards.EURØP’s position as the first euro stablecoin on XRPL reflects Schuman’s growing reputation for regulatory alignment, credibility and reliability in building institutional-grade infrastructure for the digital euro economy.
