Currently, the National Bank of Ukraine is considering and developing the following possible options for using the e-hryvnia, which will depend on its design and main characteristics:

e-hryvnia for retail non-cash payments with the possible functionality of "programmed" money;

e-hryvnia for use in the field related to the circulation of virtual assets;

e-hryvnia to ensure the possibility of making cross-border payments.

For reference. In September 2021, the National Bank launched the "E-hryvnia" project, the purpose of which is to determine the need for large-scale issuance of a digital form of the hryvnia in Ukraine. In October 2022, SE "UKRAINIAN INSTITUTE OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY" (UKRPATENT) registered the trademark "e-hryvnia" and "e-hryvnia", which belongs to the National Bank.

An e-mail box has been opened for communication with the "E-hryvnia" project team and proposals for the introduction of the e-hryvnia: e-hryvnia@bank.gov.ua
