RE: Cash vs Digital Payments: Which One Should You Rely on in 2026?

As of now, honestly, I can't decide which one I should rely on because currently, I'm using them both.
Both of them have risks. Cash is prone on physical theft, loss, and lack of transaction history while digital money may encounter connectivity issues, phone theft, phishing scams, and reliance on tech infrastructure. I guess the smart move in 2026 is not to choose one over the other, but to balance both. Cash ensures resilience in outages, while digital payments offer speed, convenience, and traceability.
