Listen to the news

Tereina’s new partnership with Circle Internet Group (CRCL) integrates USDC and EURC directly into SAP Cloud ERP payment workflows, giving enterprises stablecoin options inside systems they already use for global settlements and treasury.

Circle Internet Group’s partnership news lands after a choppy stretch for the stock, with the share price down 10.4% over the past month but still up 25.6% over 90 days, and a 1 year total shareholder return that has declined 35%. This signals that recent momentum has cooled while earlier optimism around expansion deals, acquisitions and regulatory milestones is still being reassessed.
