Question 1

What is Anchored Coins AEUR (AEUR)?

Accepted Answer

Anchored Coins AEUR is a euro-backed stablecoin project developed by Anchored Coins AG, a financial intermediary based in Switzerland and established in 2022. The project is designed to provide a regulated and transparent digital representation of the euro on public blockchains. Its primary aim is to enable compliant, on-chain payments and settlements that mirror the trust and stability of traditional fiat systems while maintaining the programmability of blockchain technology.

The reserves supporting AEUR are held with regulated Swiss banking partners, and the project includes bank-guarantee mechanisms from institutions such as FlowBank SA and Swissquote Bank SA. These safeguards provide holders with recourse against both the issuer and the guarantor banks, enhancing user protection.

Question 2

What is AEUR used for?

Accepted Answer

AEUR is issued as a payment token pegged 1:1 to the euro and deployed on Ethereum and BNB Chain following ERC-20 and BEP-20 standards. It serves as:

- A digital euro for on-chain payments and settlements in DeFi and business contexts  
- A quote asset for trading pairs on exchanges or liquidity pools requiring a stable euro unit  
- A tool for treasury operations such as invoicing, payroll, and cross-border transactions  
- A medium for remittances and OTC activity where near-instant euro settlement is needed

Smart-contract functions allow minting, burning, and compliance-driven controls such as freezing/unfreezing tokens. Independent audits are conducted to verify contract security, and on-chain transparency measures provide visibility into token supply and reserve status.
