Resolves according to the official EBT statistic: https://de.eurobilltracker.com/stats/

Will resolve when the goal is achieved.

Resolution criteria

• Each answer is a calendar year. The option corresponding to the first UTC date on which EuroBillTracker’s “Total .: Value” (sum of all registered banknotes) equals or exceeds €5,000,000,000 resolves YES; all other year-options resolve NO. Primary source: https://de.eurobilltracker.com/stats/ (English mirror: https://en.eurobilltracker.com/stats/).

• If the site is temporarily unreachable or redesigned, resolution will use the earliest verifiable snapshot showing the threshold met (e.g., Internet Archive) or the “Value .:” figure on the EBT homepage as a backup: https://en.eurobilltracker.com/.

• If the total later dips below €5,000,000,000 (e.g., data corrections), the year of the first crossing still resolves YES. Non–year answers resolve N/A.

Background

• EuroBillTracker (EBT) is a volunteer project tracking euro banknotes; its public stats show running totals of notes and their face-value sum. (en.wikipedia.org)

• As of September 29, 2025, EBT reports Total Value €4,384,965,270 across 239,541,650 notes, implying an average €≈18.3 per entered note; the remaining gap to €5,000,000,000 is about €615,034,730. (de.eurobilltracker.com)

Considerations

• Growth depends on user activity and can come in bursts (e.g., bulk uploads by power users); it is not a measure of ECB circulation. (en.wikipedia.org)

• Formatting on EBT uses European thousands separators and live-updating values; traders should check the cited pages directly when close to the threshold. (de.eurobilltracker.com)
