$BTC I have a thousand euro iPhone and during the blackout I had to buy bread with loose change. Europe already has a solution: digital euro

The recent blackout in Spain has brought to the forefront whether we are really ready to do without cash. For hours, digital payments and cards became useless in many stores, suddenly returning us to the economy of loose coins and "put it on my tab". The scene might seem like a wake-up call for a future without banknotes, but the reality is that the digital euro is designed precisely to overcome these challenges and ensure that money never goes dark. Even when everything else does. Nowadays, the iPhone is literally the wallet and even the house keys. In my case, I have an iPhone 16 Pro, I have a digital lock, not to mention the Wallet app. There I have everything: payment cards, train tickets, entries. Even in independent apps, I have my ID and driver's license. Risky? Well, of the more than 5,280 hours I've had my iPhone 16 Pro, I was only disconnected for five. And yes, I had to rummage through those old coins at home to go buy a loaf of bread. And this is much more complicated than betting everything on red or black, cash or digital.
