The profile

Digital asset subsidiary of Societe Generale, licensed as an electronic money institution by the French ACPR, authorised as a MiFID II investment firm under ACPR and AMF supervision, and registered with the AMF as a digital asset service provider since July 2023. It issues CoinVertible: the euro token EURCV, launched in April 2023 and restructured from 30 June 2024 into a MiCA electronic money token freely transferable without whitelisting, and the dollar token USDCV, which began trading in July 2025 on Ethereum and Solana with BNY as reserve custodian. Both are liabilities of a subsidiary of a systemically important European bank rather than of a standalone issuer, which is what distinguishes them from the dollar tokens that dominate circulation; neither is offered to US persons.
