<p class="is-style-lead">Stablecoin issuer Circle has introduced euro coin (EUROC) on the Avalanche network, marking the second blockchain to support the asset. EUROC, backed by the euro at a 1-1 ratio, offers developers another avenue to serve users through integration into decentralized applications (dApps).</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="circle-8217-s-euro-coin-joins-avalanche-8217-s-ecosystem">Circle&#8217;s Euro coin joins Avalanche&#8217;s ecosystem</h2>



<p>Stablecoin issuer Circle has successfully launched its EUROC stablecoin on the Avalanche network. This move makes <a href="https://crypto.news/alibaba-and-avalanche-team-up-to-build-metaverse-launchpad-on-blockchain/">Avalanche</a> the second blockchain platform to support Euro coin, following its initial launch on Ethereum last year.</p>



<p>EUROC functions as a stablecoin backed by the Euro, maintaining a 1-1 ratio. In essence, for every Euro coin minted, one euro must be deposited into a bank account backing the EUROC stablecoin. Circle, the company behind the <a href="https://crypto.news/price/usd-coin/">USDC</a> stablecoin, created the Euro coin.</p>



<p>&nbsp;The team claims the fiat euros supporting EUROC are held at leading financial institutions, ensuring transparency and trust.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Circle publishes monthly <a href="https://crypto.news/circle-releases-an-updated-accountant-verified-proof-of-reserve-report/">updates</a> and submits annual audits concerning its fiat reserves to the US Securities and Exchange Commission (<a href="https://crypto.news/ripple-defense-attorney-files-motion-to-withdraw-from-sec-case/">SEC</a>), further enhancing trustworthiness.</p>



<p>Avalanche, an innovative blockchain platform, tackles the blockchain trilemma of scalability, security, and decentralization with its unique proof-of-stake (<a href="https://crypto.news/the-reality-of-eth-staking-ethereum-proof-of-stake-is-a-regressive-capital-tax/">PoS</a>) mechanism.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Similar to Ethereum, Avalanche supports smart contracts, enabling the execution of decentralized applications (<a href="https://crypto.news/learn/what-is-a-dapp/">dApps</a>) on its network. </p>



<p>By utilizing the Solidity language, commonly used on Ethereum, Avalanche aims to foster blockchain interoperability by integrating various decentralized finance (<a href="https://crypto.news/uniswap-to-expand-defi-reach-with-upcoming-polkadot-deployment/">DeFi</a>) ecosystems, including projects like Aave and Curve.</p>
