The digital euro is set to undergo a significant shift in terms of its usability. Gone are the days of freely spending money on anything and everything. The digital euro will be programmed to only be spent on approved transactions, ensuring that it remains within the boundaries of its intended use. The European Central Bank's digital euro, as outlined in a recent report by the German Ministry of the Interior, will possess a distinct characteristic - programmability. This means that the digital euro will be designated for specific purposes, restricting its owner from unrestricted disposal.
