European Stocks Open Lower, Stoxx 50 Down 1.11%

The synchronized decline across all four major European benchmarks points to a region-wide driver rather than country-specific weakness, since no single index diverges sharply from the group. For crypto and RWA markets, the relevance lies in the broader risk-off tone that European equity opens can set before US hours, which often shapes digital-asset sentiment for the session. Whether this opening weakness holds through the close, or gets bought back as it has in prior sessions, is the open question worth tracking.
