Eurite (EURI), a euro-pegged stablecoin regulated under the European Union’s pioneering Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation, is possibly on the verge of a potential sell-off and incoming volatility. According to on-chain analytics platform Santiment, nearly 10% of EURI’s total supply was recently transferred to Binance. As per CoinMarketCap, EURI currently trades at $1.15, marking a minor 0.10% drop in the last 24 hours. However, this price is slightly above its intended €1.00 peg, a deviation that could be attributed to liquidity dynamics or exchange premiums. Also, the large-scale transfer to Binance could signal downward pressure if the tokens are sold in bulk, as Santiment suggested.

A Look at the MiCA-Regulated Stablecoin Eurite is a stablecoin issued by Banking Circle S.A., a licensed electronic money institution based in Luxembourg. It is one of the first stablecoins fully aligned with the MiCA regulation, making it a regulatory pioneer in the euro stablecoin space. Under MiCA, stablecoin issuers are required to hold 1:1 reserves in safe, liquid assets, undergo regular audits, and provide consumers with clear redemption rights. EURI is currently available on both the Ethereum and BNB Smart Chain networks. Why the Whale Transfer Is a Key Market Signal Santiment’s alert on the EURI-to-Binance transaction has introduced an element of caution. Whale movements to centralized exchanges often precede large sell-offs, especially when the market cap is relatively small. 🐳 Eurite, crypto's 521st largest market cap, valued at $50.9M, just saw nearly 10% of its entire supply move to Binance. Historically, coins that show up on @santimentfeed's whale CEX deposit dashboard can see big sell-offs that can lead to volatility. https://t.co/749Cvq8dWM pic.twitter.com/ErwQ3oDMMZ — Santiment (@santimentfeed) June 17, 2025 With EURI holding a $50.9 million valuation and ranking 521st by market cap, even modest liquidation activity could create significant short-term volatility. However, given that EURI is a regulated stablecoin, its utility lies more in cross-border payments, DeFi integrations, and fiat-crypto bridges than speculative trading. The Bigger Picture: MiCA Ushers in a New Stablecoin Era Eurite’s recent developments come amid broader changes in the European crypto regulatory landscape. Exchanges like Gemini and Coinbase are reportedly securing MiCA licenses, following similar moves by Bybit and Binance, signaling that the industry is adapting to the new regulatory environment.
