Programmable transactions are digital asset transfers or operations that execute automatically when predefined conditions are met, as specified by embedded code within the transaction itself. These transactions enable the creation of sophisticated financial instruments and automated agreements, commonly known as smart contracts, on blockchain platforms. They extend beyond simple value transfers, allowing for complex logic and conditional execution without the need for intermediaries. This capability underpins decentralized finance and many advanced blockchain applications.
