Frankfurt-based stablecoin issuer AllUnity has unveiled plans to launch a fully regulated, Swedish krona-backed stablecoin named SEKAU. Backed by financial giants DWS, Flow Traders, and Galaxy Digital, the venture is targeting a June debut for the new token, pending final regulatory and operational sign-offs from Germany’s watchdog, BaFin.
The upcoming launch aligns with a broader push across Europe to build localized, compliant alternatives to US dollar-dominated stablecoins, which currently command nearly 99% of the global market. “Sweden has long been a global leader in the transition toward a cashless economy, but that transition also requires a new form of digital money that is interoperable,” stated AllUnity CEO Alexander Höptner.
Alongside the token announcement, the company is rolling out agentic payments, a specialized payment infrastructure explicitly designed for autonomous software. The network utilizes Coinbase’s open-source x402 payment standard, allowing corporate entities to accept instantly settled, machine-initiated transactions directly into local European bank accounts. This strategy attempts to secure early market share in the budding machine-to-machine economy, optimizing settlement tracks for businesses selling digital services, content, and real-time APIs online.
According to AllUnity CTO and COO Peter Grosskopf, European commerce demands highly trusted, regulated rails tailored to this algorithmic reality. Following its previous rollouts of euro and Swiss franc tokens over the past year, AllUnity intends for SEKAU to serve as a gateway for businesses seeking to deploy and operationalize automated agent revenue streams at a massive scale.
