USDC joins 45 notified tokens under MiCA

The classification makes USDC the first of 45 e-money tokens notified under the European Union's Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation to receive the significant designation, according to Yahoo Finance. The decision applies to the European Union issuance of USDC by Circle Internet Financial Europe SAS. It changes the supervisory structure rather than the token's stated 1.00 USD redemption design.

From November 12, 2026, the EBA will directly oversee own funds, reserve assets, liquidity requirements, and recovery and redemption plans. France's Autorite de Controle Prudentiel et de Resolution retains responsibility for governance, qualifying holdings, fit-and-proper assessments, outsourcing, and conflicts of interest, Yahoo Finance reported.
