The European Central Bank (ECB) has introduced a government-backed stablecoin - or a "digital euro" ๐ธ! Though no Eurozone country has adopted it yet, the ECB is hoping European countries start to legally adopt the digital euro soon ๐ค.
With the U.S. potentially making stablecoins more widespread, the #ECB warns that Europe would suffer economically if it waits too long to make this change ๐.
"If people in Europe start to use #stablecoins to pay, given that most of them are #American and dollar-based, they will be transferring their deposits from #Europe to the United States."
