Kima Joins ECB’s Pioneers Partnership Program to Advance Digital Euro and Programmable Payments
Kima Network has integrated with the European Central Bank’s Pioneers Partnership Program, marking a significant step in the development of programmable payments for a potential digital euro. The collaboration focuses on exploring technical applications within a simulated digital euro ecosystem, bypassing traditional smart contract requirements.
The initiative targets innovative use cases like Pay-for-Success bonds, leveraging Kima’s proprietary infrastructure that operates without oracles or smart contracts. This partnership emerges as central banks globally accelerate CBDC experimentation, with the ECB taking a leadership position in programmable payment solutions.
