Monerium EUR emoney (EURE)
Key data
updated $0Monerium EUR emoney (EURE) is a euro-pegged stablecoin issued by Monerium, a company operating under European e-money regulations. Each EURE token is designed to be backed one-to-one by the euro, making it a digital version of the currency you already know. The key difference from many other stablecoins is its legal status: it's officially licensed e-money, not just a crypto asset claiming to hold reserves.
Frequently asked questions
What is EURE and how is it different from other stablecoins?
EURE is a euro-backed token issued by Monerium, an e-money institution regulated in Europe. Unlike many stablecoins that exist in a regulatory gray zone, EURE is issued under e-money licensing rules, which means the issuer is subject to oversight and reserve requirements. It's also one of the few euro stablecoins available natively on multiple blockchains.
How does EURE work technically?
EURE lives on several blockchains, including Ethereum, Polygon, and others, as an ERC-20 token. When you buy or redeem EURE through Monerium, the company mints new tokens against your euros or burns them when you cash out. Transfers between wallets work like any other token transfer — fast and borderless, with the blockchain providing the settlement layer.
How is EURE issued and what backs it?
New EURE tokens are only minted when someone deposits euros with Monerium, and tokens are burned when they're redeemed back to fiat. The reserves are held as e-money under European regulation, which is meant to keep the supply fully backed at all times. This mint-and-burn model is auditable through on-chain data combined with the issuer's regulatory obligations.
How can I store and use EURE?
Since EURE is an ERC-20 token, any Ethereum-compatible wallet like MetaMask, Ledger, or Rabby works fine. People typically use it for payments, remittances, trading on decentralized exchanges, or as a euro-denominated asset in DeFi without going through a bank. You can also redeem it back to a regular bank account through Monerium's own service.
