How do I pay in EURCV? The French banking stablecoin available with Lyzi

In the world of cryptocurrencies, not all stablecoins are the same. While USDC and EURC already dominate some uses, a new French initiative is drawing attention: The EURCV, a stablecoin backed by the euro and issued by a banking institution.
His ambition? Combining blockchain technology with the solidity of the banking sector to offer a reliable, regulated and accessible payment tool.

EURCV: a 100% French stablecoin

EURCV differs from other stablecoins by its origin: it is issued by a French bank and designed to be integrated into a strict European regulatory framework. This gives it particular credibility with businesses and institutions that want to experiment with cryptocurrency payments without leaving their comfort zone.

For consumers, this means that for each transaction in EURCV, there is the guarantee of a recognized banking player behind the token. An additional security that can reassure the most skeptical of Web3.

Why pay in EURCV?

While EURC (by Circle) or USDC (backed by the dollar) are already widely used in Web3 and international ecosystems, EURCV focuses on using more locale and banked.

It allows you to pay for purchases in cryptocurrency while remaining in a familiar environment: that of French banking institutions. The EURCV thus becomes an educational tool to democratize crypto for an audience that might not have taken the plunge with a stablecoin “born native” to the crypto ecosystem.

In other words, EURCV acts as a bridge: it connects traditional banking trust and the efficiency of blockchain payments.

How do I pay in EURCV with Lyzi?

With Lyzi, using EURCV is simple and smooth. The user selects the EURCV in his compatible wallet, scans the merchant's QR code and validates the transaction. The amount is then automatically converted into euros for the institution, which is not subject to any risk of volatility.

For merchants, nothing changes in daily management: they receive their payments in euros, via their usual bank account, while their customers benefit from the speed and modernity of a stablecoin payment.

This simplicity makes integration immediate, without complex training or process adaptation.

A lever of trust for French retailers

By accepting EURCV, retailers benefit from several strategic advantages:

  • They attract curious and tech-savvy customers who are often sensitive to innovation.
  • They reinforce their image by being among the first to offer a payment method that is both modern and secure.
  • They rely on the solidity of a French bank, which provides an additional argument of trust with respect to their customers and partners.

EURCV, EURC and USDC: three complementary approaches

The appearance of EURCV does not replace EURC or USDC, but enriches the ecosystem. Each stablecoin has a different purpose:

  • THEUSDC remains essential for international payments in dollars and integration into DeFi.
  • THEEURC seduced by its stability and compliance on a European scale.
  • THEEURCV focuses on French banking anchoring and institutional trust.

This is proof that when it comes to payments, innovation is not opposed to tradition: on the contrary, it can prolong and strengthen it.
