In time, are coins going extinct?

[Anonymous]

Money in general is. People , and especially younger adults now prefer using their credit cards and debit cards , and would much rather use a smaller more flexible wallet than the bigger wallets fit everything in. It’s more convenient. More and more people are adapting to it.

I mean people use Apple Pay now to pay at cash registers. It’s way better than having to stand they counting your money while you have tons of people waiting in line for you to do so and then the cashier gets incredibly impatient because you’re taking up their time.

Maybe one day they are gonna extinct like other inventions had been in the past. We use those metallic things from the time of Lydians , means a couple of milleniums. In the future , as we guess , so many things are going to chance even the things that cannot even comes to our mind , who knows , maybe the coins are one of those things among them...

Yes once they get rid of points it'll be easy to get rid of paper, they are definitely going for this cashless society that's why they also pushing of course Bitcoin and every other electronic currency instead. And everybody sees it as a plus but it's a serious negative

Cards fail, there is too much of a market for them to go extinct, commemorative coins are minted every day, and Numismatics pay a lot of money and invest on coins all the time.

I think your job is safe. 😁

Not sure on it but it bring it price on silver which is much less

[Asker]

I think you right

[jimmy2]

Yes.

[Asker]

But what i mean is normal coins not memoral

[jamesgoldman]

Nah, circulating ones might but commemorative and precious metal issuings will still exist

[Intothevoid666]

Um paper and coin money period one day will probably go extinct but I don't know. It’s not coins can’t be made to have more value than paper money so I don’t see why coins in particular would go extinct

[jshm2]

No. Quite the opposite.

Smaller coins are out, but larger coins are going to endure.

[bolverk]

I doubt that, as people will always used hard cash no matter what the WEF would like that to happen.

[genericname85]

Sure. But it's likely they stick around for longer than humans will XD

I have thousands of coins , silver, Gold, Platinum. copper, nickel, zinc. The best designers were Portuguese

[driven159]

more than likely everything will be debit card type

[Anonymous]

[Adam1978]

[Ringstretch]

Yes, soon they will be a thing of the past
