European Banking Consortium Qivalis Prepares Euro Stablecoin Launch for 2026

A coalition of ten major European banks, now including BNP Paribas, has established Qivalis in Amsterdam to develop a euro-pegged stablecoin slated for H2 2026. The initiative challenges the current dollar-dominated stablecoin market where USDT and USDC control 85% share.

The consortium originally comprised ING, Banca Sella, KBC, and six others before BNP Paribas joined. With €2.8 trillion in assets, BNP's participation as a globally systemic bank lends critical weight to the project. The euro stablecoin aims to provide a viable alternative to dollar-denominated crypto assets.
