MiCA strikes again? Revolut to drop USDT as Circle gains momentum

Revolut will delist Tether's USDT by 31st August, with deposits set to be disabled by the end of July as EU's MiCA goes into effect...

  • Revolut is delisting Tether's USDT by August 31st due to regulatory pressures from the EU's MiCA framework, which is impacting stablecoin compliance.
  • Tether's CEO criticizes MiCA as 'dangerous' for stablecoins, fearing it could lead to banking crises and position the Digital Euro for control, while Circle's USDC, with MiCA approval, sees increased adoption.
  • USDC's transfer volume has significantly surpassed USDT's, indicating a potential shift in stablecoin preference within the EU, driven by regulatory compliance and adoption trends.
