Dubai Approves USDC & EURC: A Milestone for Stablecoins and Global Crypto Adoption

-

The approval of USDC and EURC as the first stablecoins under Dubai’s new crypto framework on February 24, 2025, marks a significant step for Circle and positions Dubai as a blockchain innovation hub, enabling over 6,000 DIFC firms to legally use these stablecoins for payments and treasury functions.

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.

For crypto adoption, it’s a game-changer in the UAE—already third globally in adoption—offering businesses efficient, compliant tools for digital finance and potentially accelerating the region’s emergence as a crypto powerhouse.
