This weekend the governer of France’s central bank, François Villeroy de Galhau, said the euro’s monetary dominance is under threat from cryptocurrency.
De Galhau called for regulation to be introduced rapidly to preserve the strength of the Europe-wide currency.
“Whether it is digital currencies or payments, we in Europe must be ready to act as quickly as necessary, or take the risk of an erosion of our monetary sovereignty,” he said.
“I must stress here the urgency: we do not have much time left, one or two years.”
The overall market cap of the approximate 10,700 coins is at $1.43 trillion after a 0.75% drop in 24 hours.
