Why it matters

ECON pushed its Digital Euro Regulation committee vote from 5 May to 23 June because MEPs could not yet agree a compromise on individual holding limits and offline-privacy design — the same fault lines that would still be the headline terms when the committee finally voted.

What to watch

• Whether the extra six weeks produces a compromise text or hardens the same divide.
• Which political groups are driving the holding-limit and offline-privacy disagreement.
• Whether the delay pushes back the mandate to open trilogue with the Council.

Outcome

The ECON Committee vote on the Digital Euro Regulation was postponed from 5 May to 23 June 2026, as MEPs needed more time to reach a compromise on holding limits and offline-privacy features.
