Hi community...

Some still prefer using cash, perhaps because they are more inclined towards the tangible nature of physical currency or because it provides confidentiality in transactions. In contrast, digital payments, which occur by swiping a card or a few taps on a mobile phone, are becoming more common.
Maybe  this is the end of money  erea .

So , will we soon dispense with money and replace it with digital currencies?



The likely reason people want tangible currency is to have a sense of ownership, control and proof of existence.

It's actually better to have currency like physical US dollar than Bitcoin without fullnode due to privacy and other benefits. Bitcoin would have been better if non-fullnode users are able to easily exchange the physical version of it.
 The problem with using currency with zero to little privacy is that the users are exposed to risk from criminals who could abuse their privacy. Infact without sufficient privacy of currency like the physical US dollar, tyrants or criminals will know you own bitcoins, will come to your home and take them from you if you are not protected.
Digital coins could easily be frozen, seized or stolen.

Other benefits of physical currency:
 * You can always use it physically as long as it can't be easily redesigned or rejected as a proper legal tender, which is part of the reasons I chose USD, which is by far better than what most cryptocurrencies offer. And if you want to use dollar safely in virtual form, you could use or create a USD Stablecoin you fully control with full node.
* It's more privacy-friendly
*It's more censorship resistant
* it increases your purchasing power when used in countries with weak currencies.
Etc

That's possible but I doubt it that cash will be gone.

And that is because not every citizen will be fond of using digital currencies and that's why the existence of cash is going to stay. It is one of the considerations of the government as not all have adopted such technologies.

Are they going to be left behind with that and won't be able to use digital currencies while enforcing the use of it? I don't think so, that's why there will be co-existence for this.

This has been talk of the town since bitcoin was created and also from  credit card
was introduced but look at it now after tens of years so lets not assume this to come any time soon mate.
I know we are all looking for this to make it happen but lets admit the reality that
more than half of people in the world are still prefer using Fiat than online money.
