Circle’s stablecoin’s USDC and EURC got approval for use and promotion within the Dubai International Financial Centre, the company said in a statement on Monday.
The Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA) approved USDC and EURC as recognized crypto tokens within the DIFC, the statement said.
“With this approval, financial institutions and fintechs operating in the DIFC can integrate USDC and EURC into digital asset services, payments, treasury management, and a range of financial applications,” the company said.
The recognition of Circle’s stablecoins is a game-changer, Ryan Lee, Chief Analyst at Bitget Research said in a statement.
“This move enhances trust in stablecoins amid regional volatility, boosts Circle’s competitive stance against Tether’s USDT dominance, and could reshape the $157 billion stablecoin market by legitimizing USDC and EURC for broader use,” Lee said.
