European Central Bank selects COTI to assist in developing digital euro technology "
According to online reports, according to Bitcoin.com, the European Central Bank (ECB) selected the Ethereum Privacy Layer Protocol COTI as a digital euro pilot partner to jointly develop the CBDC technology solution launched in early 2026 with KPMG, Accenture and other institutions. COTI will use its original Garbled Circuits encryption protocol to build core privacy features for the digital euro. Nearly 70 selected institutions need to complete technical verification of conditional payment systems before 2026. COTI CEO Shahaf Bar-Geffen said that this is the second CBDC collaboration after the Israeli digital shekel project, focusing on how to embed privacy protection into the underlying architecture of the system. The European Central Bank will provide technical specification support such as APIs to partners, and the pilot results will form an evaluation report by the end of the year.
