The future of the paper money

[Japinat]

I think that's impossible right now, government don't wanna deal with BTC for they can't control it. Some may adopt to the BTC but for sure paper money will continue for few more decades.

Paper money will dominate, bitcoin is just a alternative money where you can use if you want a faster transaction, not all transactions in the world suits with online transaction as there are still a majority of people in this world that will stick with what they get used to which is paper money.

I don't know, maybe the more advanced technology more modern transactions made by some countries for the convenience of the community. but I am worried that in my country there are still many people who do not know the advanced technology, just like the ATM is still many who do not know even do not trust 100% if the account is safe. most people are afraid of losing money in the ATM.

This is something which needs good amount of knowledge. With knowledge and experience, you get used to such kind of things. As far as future of paper money is concerned, I think it will be affected though not very much but enough to bring the value of paper money down with the introduction of this digital currency. There will be more users of digital currency in the future.

I don't think that paper money will disappear in this world, although if later the crypto currency will become more popular and growing as well can exceed the excess of paper money.. I think paper money will still exist and will not be extinct. I am guessing in the future the paper money will remain and coexist with crypto currency in the countries if the crypto currency is still alive.

I ought to disagree with that one. Digital currency can never bring down the value of paper money, as long as we give it value. We are used to using paper money ever since so it's really hard for bitcoin to overthrow the use of paper money. Also, unlike paper money which is produced mainly by central banks, there is a cap set on total bitcoins, that limits how much currency can devalue through inflation.

Paper money would always be preferred by most since they've pretty much live their whole life using it. Cryptocurrency will never replace paper money due to many reason.

1. Bank notes (Issued and legalized by government)
2. Fiat Money Transactions (Majority will always prefer their fiat currency over digital)
3. Quick Transaction (Buying from a small store or stall)

For big transactions use crypto for small transactions use paper money. In the near future, the market would be a hybrid of paper money and digital money transactions.

Andrew Haldane said one solution would be for the Bank of England to issue a state-backed digital currency based on bitcoin. Supporting this initiative would be a negative interest rate levied on paper currency relative to the digital currency, with these measures do you think there is more possibilities that sometime:

Paper money will be banned entirely?
How long do you think that happens?
would it work?
What security and privacy risks would it raise?
And how would public and privately issued monies interact?

I think paper money will survive. A few decades later, paper money would hold an important position. It is still the most used currency. The emergence of virtual currency affects paper money, but it will take a long time for new paper money to disappear

If you want to compare with bitcoin, I think it can't be compare since they are different commodity
Even bitcoin are officially accept , it won't affect anything

[Gozie51]

I really don't think paper money would fissle out, the much that can happen is that both will exist side by side in locals.

Meanwhile, I see a situation where bitcoin will be highly preferred in international transactions other than the known paper currencies. The reason is that, bitcoin is easily accessible, secured and fraudulent curtailed at least for now, is not carried about physically as you don't need a mobile excort for it etc.

Bitcoin will really change the financial topography of the business world with time. Many people will prefer it for larger and bigger financial payment because of its advantages and it is not carried about. Thus, paper money might just be reduced to small retail businesses.

We are living in that kind of world now even before Bitcoin existed in the world. People as of today are using other payment methods rather than using their Fiat currency straight up with the payment methods such as debit cards, credit cards, and Paypal you will see that we are living a world where digital transactions exist. The problem that I see here is that all of those payment method does not incur any kind of transaction fees for the buyer while Bitcoin transaction has.

I agree to that. That is the scenario that can only happen in the paper money, they can experience a lesser amount of users for using it as a mode of payment because the other people or businesses will prefer bitcoin and other type of easy mode of payment like digital payments rather than paper money because the online businesses are getting more popular and trending so we can expect cryptocurrencies will be more crowded in the future.

I personally don't think paper money will completely disappear any time in the near future. It is true that electronic transactions have become more and more common over the last few decades and I see no reason why this trend will not continue. We may even get to the point where paper money transactions become incredibly rare. At that point, the tables could turn and what we now consider paper money may actually act as the backing to our electronic currency, the way the gold standard once backed paper money.

With electronic money there is question of privacy security and many people don't believe in electronic money they still prefer physical money and this will prevail in the future too.

Digital money is very develop now in most of the countries because using of digital money is easy as compare than paper money but keep in mind that paper money have his own value everywhere and it is not possible that paper money will complete disappear from the world because without paper money currency is not possible of any country.

The fact is that to date electronic money occupies a very low place in the financial sector in the world economy, but we must also take into account the fact that many people are not ready to use crypto currency. The fact is that to use crypto currency, you need a lot of specific knowledge and even education.

[SirLancelot]

The future of money is digital, paper money will disappear eventually and most transactions will move online, but not necessarily crypto.

I don't think it will disappear, it will be minimize in use but will not totally disappear in the circulation.
That would not make all the people happy, digital requires internet to transact and we cannot educate all people about the internet.
More options are better than one.

For sure, if you are thinking that bitcoin will be the sole currency in future. Don’t think it, it is just useless. There are so many options now, as to transact online, offline, paper money, and so many currencies are there. But if these all get away, there will be no proper management. Plus people are illiterate about internet things, so can’t happen.

Paper money can’t be demolished. There will not be any concept of a cashless society. Without physical things system can’t run. And this is the system of the whole world. How can you think that there will be the whole online transactions, if you have to buy fruit pay bitcoin to the shopkeeper and all that low level chores can’t be transacted in bitcoins.

But a lot of things happen without people getting ready. Was the world ready to be filled of the Millennials who are constantly depressed, pressured, and on the verge of suicide? I don't think so. The world becomes what it becomes and as humans, we tend to adapt with our environment. Even if you are dumb, once everyone starts using bitcoin, you are also going to start using bitcoin. There are people in my place who have no proper education yet they are using Smartphones. Smartphones have English as language and that should be really hard for them. Yet the developers have made it intuitive by using corresponding logos that can easily be remembered by the user. I think the same thing was done with bitcoin. Online wallets are pretty intuitive and self explanatory.

It's their problem to deal with if they are not ready to use bitcoin yet. Once it becomes mainstream, they have no choice but to adapt to the environment because everyone is already doing it.

Later supply paper money will be reduced. Because, technological advancements are driving innovation to financial world also those related to it. But, absolutely nothing will disappear.

I don't think that paper money is facing any competetion from Bitcoin simply because of the fact that paper money works offline and does not require any Internet for transactions. The confirmation time of transactions of paper money is zero.Paper money is also very stable because of the fact that the government backs it.  People mostly see Bitcoin as an investment as it has a very fast growth rate.

[Farma]

think again. I think paper money will still be in use in the future. because paper money is a practical means of payment for now, and can be used anywhere, even in places far from crowds, or technology.

[Flodemaga]

Even knowing paper money is loosing space to credit and online transactions it still required for the  most merchants as way to pay, since they wont pay or loose any money with fiat payment, unlike online transaction with cards. Crypto does bring a new way to make business, and some coins are coming already with no fee transaction, soo in the end you will need to pay a fee to exchange those money to fiat and just, reducing the waste of the fee.

[Protomono]

Paper money maybe will lose, but certainly takes very long time. And indeed, now a technological era where financial transactions can be done using card or even in the presence cryptocurrency will further accelerate the displacement paper money.

In the near future, I think paper money will continue to grow as human needs are still paper money. But in the distant future, as people grow, things become more modern then I think paper money will be replaced by digital money. Because of the increasing demand of people, they have to be fast, convenient and easy to navigate, but they have to be high security and global transactions that can be used anywhere in the world and digital money meets those requirements
