Bitpanda, one of Europe's leading digital asset platforms, has launched USDG trading markets along with deposits and withdrawals on 5 February 2026, Global Dollar Network (GDN) announced. The partnership enables millions of European investors and businesses to access the stablecoin.
Global Dollar (USDG) is now available for trading on Bitpanda's platform, offering users access to a stablecoin that meets the European Union's Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulatory framework. As USDG is issued under the supervision of Finland's Financial Supervisory Authority (FIN-FSA), it provides European users with a digital dollar issuance option that complies with the EU's consumer protection and regulatory standards.
GDN is a digital dollar ecosystem that rewards network partners for their contributions to growing the network. Partners can earn rewards by minting, utilising or accepting USDG.

Linnea Perelli-Minetti, Head of Network Operations, Paxos commented:
"We're thrilled to welcome Bitpanda to GDN so that they can economically benefit while also offering their European users the safest, most trusted digital dollar. This also represents our commitment to providing compliant, accessible digital dollar solutions that meet the highest regulatory standards. Bitpanda's reputation for security and user experience makes them an ideal partner as we expand USDG's presence in European markets."
Bitpanda users will be able to access USDG through the platform's existing interface, with the ability to trade, hold and transfer the stablecoin alongside other digital assets. The integration leverages Bitpanda's infrastructure to provide access to USDG's benefits, including fast settlement times, transparent reserve backing and regulatory compliance.

Dominik Beier, Chief Commercial Officer, Bitpanda said:
"Adding USDG to our platform allows us to offer our users a MiCA-compliant stablecoin option that meets the regulatory expectations of European markets. As the regulatory landscape evolves, we're committed to providing our users with digital assets that combine innovation with compliance and USDG represents exactly that standard."
The launch makes USDG available to Bitpanda's millions of users across Europe, providing them with a regulated on-ramp to digital dollar usage for payments, savings and trading.
