We've been fighting for your 4%, but on Tuesday night in Paris, we asked what else is holding Europe back. Institutions building here told us, unfiltered, which rules will decide whether they stay or go elsewhere, because that’s the reality of the September 30th deadline. The MiCA review is the chance to fix it. Thanks to @50Partners for co-hosting, and to our friends Roeland of @coinbase and @SebVentures of @SteakhouseFi for joining the room 🇪🇺

We thought stablecoin rewards were a MiCA problem. Then we went to Barcelona. At @EBlockchainCon, builders and users from all over the world told us they feel it too. Because the fight for your 4% was never just about what you can earn. It's about whether the rules let innovation grow. On stage, our very own @arianemurphy_ joined @reyeshmartha, Michael Howe — @Bitwise_Europe, Diana-Cezara Toader — @UBS, Peter Hubli — Zürcher Kantonalbank, and Sladjan Seferović — SWIAT to unpack what’s changed in institutional adoption and where the friction still lies. The conversation kept coming back to one thing. Adoption follows the landscape. Thank you to @EBlockchainCon for letting us wheel Europe's locked rewards to the front of the room 🔒 The fight for your 4% continues

We did it. We're now 4M globally. Together🛡️ 🇪🇺 @StandWCrypto_EU 🇺🇸 @standwithcrypto 🇬🇧 @StandWCrypto_UK 🇨🇦 @StandWCrypto_CA 🇦🇺 @StandWCrypto_AU 🇧🇷 @JuntosPorCripto

Next stop: Paris 🇫🇷 This evening, we’re co-hosting a roundtable with @50Partners, bringing together crypto companies and entrepreneurs from across the French ecosystem for a working conversation on stablecoin rules, discussing what’s working, what needs revisiting, and helping shape our response to the European Commission’s MiCA review. France has one of Europe's strongest crypto talent bases. It should have one of the loudest voices in how this framework evolves. The Commission's consultation closes 30 September, and the fight for your 4% continues.

If European innovators gathered at @EBlockchainCon to fight for their 4%, this is what it would look like. #fight4your4percent

Somewhere in Europe right now, someone is holding stablecoins that earn them nothing. Not because the technology can't do it. Because a provision in MiCA says issuers can't pass rewards on to holders. Meanwhile, the same person can open a savings account and earn on their euros. The person is the same. The rule is different. That's the gap we're hoping to close. The European Commission is consulting on exactly this until 30 September. That's a real window, and it closes. This week we're at @EBlockchainCon in Barcelona making the case in person. If you can't be here, you can still be heard:standwithcrypto.org/eu/en/ac… We are near the finish line, but the fight for your 4% continues🛡️

Millions of Europeans hold stablecoins. Not one of them can earn on those holdings, while savers elsewhere can. That rule is under review right now, and the window closes at the end of the month. So we brought something to @EBlockchainCon that makes the point faster than a policy paper👀 Keep your eyes peeled for it🛡️

A cage. Hundreds of locks. One message to the European Commission. We're heading to @EBlockchainCon in Barcelona 🇪🇸 Come add yours tomorrow and fight for your 4%🔒

This @EBlockchainCon, make sure you don’t miss SWC EU and your locked rewards! The fight for your 4% is coming to the main stage as we discuss what has and hasn’t changed with regard to institutional adoption, moderated by @arianemurphy_, our new Head of Strategy and Ops at SWC International As you have heard, the cage is on the move, come and find us on the ground🛡️

MiCA gave Europe a rulebook. Whether it makes Europe competitive is the harder question, and the one we're bringing to @EBlockchainCon as a partner. See you in Barcelona 🇪🇸

EU stablecoin policy is at a decision point, and the consultation closes 30 September. We're at @EBlockchainCon, connecting builders, users and policymakers around one question. What does a pro-innovation framework actually look like in practice? Swipe to find out how we will find the answer👇
