Stablecoin-issuing protocol e-Money has ceased its issuance of the EEUR stablecoin in the context of current market conditions. The issuance of EEUR came to a complete halt on 9 January 2023 but users can still redeem the stablecoin until 6 March 2023.

E-Money officials cited by coindesk. com motivated their decision by mentioning current market conditions and emphasised that it is both prudent and responsible to wind the project down. Those who have considerable sums of EURR can redeem their coins directly for euros with e-Money.

As for those with smaller amounts, they can swap their EURR for other cryptocurrencies on the Cosmos-based exchange Osmosis. Coindesk reports that the stablecoin sector has a market cap of around USD 140 billion, but despite this, the adoption of stablecoins linked to fiat currencies other than USD has been slow. One example is Circle, the issuer of USDC, which introduced its euro coin (EUROC) in June 2022.
