Even as payment apps dominate our daily transactions and central banks roll out digital euros, something unexpected is happening—physical cash is quietly making a comeback. The contrast couldn't be sharper. On one side, we've got sleek fintech platforms processing billions in real-time. On the other, people are rediscovering the appeal of holding actual coins and notes. It's not that digital payments are going anywhere, but there's a growing realization that cash offers something the digital world simply can't replicate: privacy, tangibility, and freedom from algorithmic control. The narrative of a cashless future? Maybe not so inevitable after all.
