Circle’s news and media highlights

Circle, a global financial technology firm and the issuer of USDC and EURC, has today announced that it has become the first global stablecoin issuer to achieve compliance with the European Union's landmark Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulatory framework. This achievement was enabled by the company’s attainment of an Electronic Money Institution (EMI) license (’agrément en qualité d'établissement de monnaie électronique) from the Autorité de Contrôle Prudentiel et de Résolution (ACPR), the French banking regulatory authority. With this license, both USDC and EURC are now being issued in the EU in compliance with MiCA’s regulatory obligations for stablecoins or e-money tokens, which took effect yesterday, according to the law today and subject to potential clarifications on the interpretation of the law by the European Commission.
In Japan, the response to the burgeoning stablecoin sector has been proactive and regulatory in nature. The nation has instituted a new regulatory framework specifically for “Electronic Payment Instruments Services” (EPIS) that deal with stablecoins. This framework underscores the importance of compliance with the Payment Services Act (PSA), which necessitates registration for conducting EPIS. Such regulations are designed to ensure that the integration of stablecoins into Japan’s financial ecosystem is done securely and responsibly. With this new regulation in place, Coincheck Inc., based in Tokyo with Satoshi Hasuo as its President, incorporates USDC into its product suite. This is a testament to its commitment to compliance and innovation.
Circle Internet Financial (Circle) today announced that it confidentially submitted a draft registration statement on Form S-1 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), relating to the proposed initial public offering of its equity securities. The number of shares to be offered and the price range for the proposed offering have not yet been determined. The initial public offering is expected to take place after the SEC completes its review process, subject to market and other conditions.
Circle Internet Financial Ltd., issuer of the USDC stablecoin, is considering going public early in 2024, according to people with knowledge of the matter. The company is talking to advisers as it prepares for a potential initial public offering, said the people, who asked not to be identified discussing confidential information. Deliberations are ongoing and there’s no certainty that Circle will decide to proceed with a listing, the people said. While it’s not clear how much Circle would seek to be valued in an IPO, it was valued at $9 billion when it tried to go public in a blank-check deal in 2022.
