Spiko Brings EU T-Bill Funds Onto Coinbase Stablecoin Rails
Spiko plugged Coinbase Payments into two EU-regulated UCITS Treasury funds, letting investors buy and redeem via USDC and EURC on Base.
Regulated money-market exposure just got a crypto on-ramp. Spiko has integrated Coinbase Payments into two EU-regulated UCITS Treasury funds, meaning you can now subscribe and redeem using USDC or EURC stablecoins routed through Base, Coinbase's layer-2 network. That's a direct bridge between TradFi fund structure and on-chain settlement.
This matters because UCITS funds are among the most trusted retail-investment vehicles in Europe — strict regulatory oversight, daily liquidity, capital protections. Wrapping that in stablecoin rails removes the wire-transfer friction that has kept crypto-native investors sitting on the sidelines of regulated yield products.

As stablecoin regulation tightens under MiCA, using a compliant euro stablecoin alongside a UCITS wrapper looks like a deliberate regulatory alignment move.
If you've been parking stablecoins in low-yield DeFi pools, Spiko's setup is worth a look. Regulated, redeemable, and now on-chain. Continue reading at Cointelegraph.
