The Digital Euro, Stablecoins, and the Banking Sector
Abstract
Nowadays, the debate in developed economies is no longer whether a digital currency will be implemented but how to implement a central bank digital currency. The common consensus is that a central bank digital currency will inevitably be used as a means of payment. This chapter analyses the European Union's strategy on stablecoins, bearing in mind the Digital Euro Project, the consequences of the full application of the European Markets in Crypto-assets Regulation from 2024, and the implications for the banking sector of the implementation of the digital euro as a new means of payment in the eurozone.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
