Europenii care au uitat cum arată banii lichizi. Suedezii spun că trec luni întregi fără să atingă vreo bancnotă

European societies are experiencing a shift towards digital payments, with Sweden leading the way in cashless transactions. While some countries embrace this change, others, like Germany, remain attached to cash due to cultural and privacy concerns. The pandemic accelerated the adoption of contactless payments, and many consumers now prefer digital methods. However, the complete disappearance of cash seems unlikely, as it still holds value in emergencies and offers data protection. Countries are likely to adopt hybrid models, balancing digital and cash transactions.
