PANews reported on October 29th that the European Central Bank (ECB) stated on Thursday that it may launch its digital currency pilot program in 2027, provided it receives timely approval from lawmakers. The ECB considers the project crucial for the financial autonomy of the Eurozone. It views it as a strategic alternative to US-dominated private payment methods such as credit cards and stablecoins. The ECB stated that this move is increasingly important in an era of heightened geopolitical tensions, as financial autonomy and resilience are seen as key to maintaining European economic sovereignty. After four years of research and preparation, the ECB indicated that it is currently considering a pilot program, meaning that some digital euro transactions could begin as early as mid-2027, with a full rollout two years later.PANews reported on October 29th that the European Central Bank (ECB) stated on Thursday that it may launch its digital currency pilot program in 2027, provided it receives timely approval from lawmakers.
