Happens very frequently in gaming communities because european servers often get abbreviated as EU, so people just keep using it to mean europe in other contexts.
Honestly unsure if the times I’ve used euro is just because someone else did first or because I felt it necessary to distinguish from the EU and didn’t feel like writing “european” (though actually yea, I don’t think I’ve ever seen it used by europeans to mean “Europe”, only “european”).
I have never met a European who’d use “EU” or “Euro” as a shortened version of “Europe” as a continent
