Lagarde's likely ECB successors are both crypto skeptics
- —Lagarde will leave the ECB on Feb. 7, 2027, before her term ends
- —Knot said in June 2025 crypto risks could become a systemic threat
- —de Cos warned stablecoins could drive dollarization of economies
- —Both are crypto critics, but the ECB president does not set policy alone
Why it matters: A change at the top of the ECB could shape how the euro zone regulates stablecoins and crypto, though policy is set collectively.
