Open USD, a US dollar stablecoin backed by major firms like Coinbase and Stripe's subsidiary Bridge, launched on September 30, 2026. Despite the issuer being authorized in the EU, Open USD itself is not notified in the EU's MiCA register, meaning it cannot be publicly offered or traded in the EU as of October 1, 2026. This affects investor rights, trading availability, and yield expectations under EU law. The token's yield benefits merchants, not holders, and EU regulation prohibits interest payments on such tokens. A formal notification and white paper submission under MiCA are required before EU public offering, which has not yet occurred.
