Societe Generale-FORGE, the digital assets unit of France’s third-largest bank, is pushing its euro and dollar stablecoins deeper into decentralized finance (DeFi) with new deployments on Morpho and Uniswap.
EURCV, USDCV Go Live on Morpho Vaults With Curation by MEV Capital
With vaults live, pairs trading, and liquidity humming, SG-FORGE has officially stepped out of the ivory tower and into DeFi‘s innovative sphere — where smart contracts never take coffee breaks.
The tokens — EUR Coinvertible (EURCV) and USD Coinvertible (USDCV) — are designed to be MiCA-compliant and have already made the leap from bank ledgers to crypto exchanges. Their latest move brings them into Ethereum’s DeFi ecosystem, where code, not clerks, manages the flow of funds.
Morpho now hosts vaults for lending and borrowing denominated in the SG-FORGE stablecoins. Supported collateral includes wrapped bitcoin (wBTC), wrapped Lido staked ether (wstETH), and tokenized Treasury funds USTBL and EUTBL issued by Spiko. The setup offers a mix of crypto-native and traditional-style assets, with the bank hinting at broader collateral lists down the road.
MEV Capital is stepping in as curator, effectively policing the vaults. Its role covers risk management, capital allocation, and ensuring the whole operation doesn’t wobble under pressure. The approach aims to give institutional players more comfort in what is typically the wild west of lending protocols.
On the trading side, Uniswap has added EURCV and USDCV pairs. The decentralized exchange (DEX) relies on automated market makers (AMMs) instead of order books, and Flowdesk is backing the liquidity to keep markets from going bone-dry.
SG-FORGE framed the integrations as the next phase of its onchain experiment: after establishing stablecoins and tokenized funds, it’s now offering ways to borrow, lend, and swap them directly on Ethereum. For a bank whose reputation rests on regulation and control, the foray into DeFi suggests that traditional finance (TradFi) and smart contracts might just be finding common ground.
