EU Officials Warn of U.S. Crypto Policies Threatening Financial Stability

News summary

European finance officials are expressing significant concerns regarding the U.S. administration's recent shift towards pro-cryptocurrency policies under President Donald Trump, particularly the establishment of a strategic cryptocurrency reserve. They fear that such policies, especially regarding dollar-denominated stablecoins, could threaten the eurozone's monetary sovereignty and financial stability. Eurozone finance ministers, including Paschal Donohoe and Pierre Gramegna, have pointed out that these developments could encourage major technology firms to launch their own cryptocurrency payment systems, undermining traditional financial structures in Europe. The European Central Bank is responding by exploring the creation of a digital euro to maintain financial stability and autonomy. The apprehension is that the U.S. crypto pivot could reignite ambitions for mass payment solutions by foreign and U.S. tech giants, which could have dire consequences for Europe's financial system. Overall, the situation underscores the interconnectedness of international financial policies and their implications for economic stability in Europe.
