Societe Generale-FORGE, the digital asset unit of French bank Societe Generale, has integrated its MiCA-compliant USD CoinVertible (USDCV) stablecoin into MetaMask, making the token available to the wallet’s mobile and web users. Announced in a release, the partnership with Consensys will surface USDCV — issued under French electronic money rules and backed by cash and cash-equivalent reserves — in MetaMask for trading, DeFi activity and fiat on‑ramps, with Transak serving as the on‑ramp provider. The token is redeemable 1:1 for dollars.
The move extends distribution for one of the few dollar stablecoins issued by a major European bank and illustrates how regulated issuers are using MiCA compliance as a commercial advantage by listing tokens on widely used crypto platforms. SG-FORGE CEO Jean‑Marc Stenger said the MetaMask rollout aims to broaden access to compliant digital assets. Consensys CEO Joseph Lubin noted stablecoins’ growing role in digital financial infrastructure.
Under the European Union’s new Markets in Crypto Assets framework, a still-small set of approved stablecoin issuers — roughly 10 so far — is competing for market share, making wallet integrations increasingly important. Cointelegraph reached out to Societe Generale‑FORGE and Consensys for comment but had not received a response by publication.
SG‑FORGE also issues EUR CoinVertible, a MiCA‑compliant euro stablecoin first launched on Ethereum in 2023. That euro token has expanded across multiple chains — including Solana, the XRP Ledger and Stellar — as part of a broader multichain strategy. USDCV is available on Ethereum and Solana and listed through several exchanges and partners, according to SG‑FORGE. The company has also participated in experiments with tokenized bonds and blockchain settlement as it tests tokenized financial infrastructure.
