Euro Crypto Trading Volume Soars Post-MiCA, Execution Price Concerns Emerge
According to reports, European crypto trading volume has increased significantly, particularly in the euro stablecoin market, following the implementation of MiCA regulations. DECTA’s “Euro Stablecoin Trends Report 2025” indicates a 102% increase in market cap within 12 months after MiCA's rollout, reversing a previous decline. The combined market cap reached $500 million in May 2025, with aggregated monthly transaction volume jumping to $3.832 billion. However, despite this growth, a "venue gap" is affecting execution prices. Kaiko’s analysis suggests that early MiCA adoption was driven by regulatory compliance rather than new demand, with compliant euro stablecoins reaching a high market share. Liquidity concerns remain, with spreads and market depth needing improvement for better trading execution.
