Kraken, Tether-Backed Dutch Firm Rolls Out MiCA-Compliant Euro, U.S. Dollar Stablecoins

Netherlands-based fintech firm Quantoz, backed by crypto exchange Kraken and stablecoin giant Tether, has rolled out MiCA-compliant euro (EURQ) and U.S. dollar (USDQ) stablecoins.

The tokens, pegged 1:1 to their respective fiat currencies, will be listed on Bitfinex and Kraken, making them available to eligible users starting Thursday.

Quantoz, boasting the Electronic Money Institution (EMI) license from the Dutch Central Bank, has secured investments from Fabric Ventures, Kraken and Tether, although the size of the fundraising round remains undisclosed.

EURQ and USDQ will pave the way for further stablecoin launches by Quantoz in the future.
