#EUPrivacyCoinBan marks a major shift in crypto regulation. Starting 2027, anonymous wallets and privacy coins like Monero and Zcash will be banned across the EU. All crypto transactions over €1,000 will require identity verification.

Is this the end of private digital transactions—or a needed step to stop illicit finance?

Regulation can bring trust, but at what cost to privacy and decentralization?

$USDC is likely to benefit from the clarity, but privacy advocates are sounding the alarm.
