Programmable capital refers to money or assets whose usage and movement can be automatically controlled by code. This concept is central to smart contracts and decentralized finance, allowing for the automated execution of financial agreements without intermediaries. Rules governing the capital’s behavior, such as payment schedules, collateral requirements, or access conditions, are embedded directly into the digital asset. It enables the creation of highly customizable and self-executing financial instruments.
