Who we are

The Digital Euro Association (DEA) is an independent voice of society, committed to advancing values such as freedom, privacy, and transparent governance in digital money.

Our Expertise

Public Digital Euro / CBDC

A central bank digital currency (CBDC) is a digital currency issued by a central bank. In the case of a retail CBDC, the CBDC is available to the private end-user. The ECB uses the term “digital euro” to define a euro CBDC.

Private Digital Euro / Euro stablecoins

Stablecoins are crypto assets that maintain a (relatively) constant price due to a stabilization mechanism and are therefore not subject to high volatility. Stability is ensured, e.g., by holding reserves in fiat currencies, government bonds, or other assets.

The CBDC Manifesto

The CBDC Manifesto proposes 5 major CBDC design recommendations, which can be used as a roadmap by central banks to devise an optimal CBDC development plan.

"The digitization of the monetary system is progressing. The monetary system will undergo fundamental changes over the next decade."
