Central banks are testing digital currencies that promise speed, low cost, and regulatory control. Cryptocurrencies, by contrast, offer decentralization, censorship resistance, and innovation. The real world will likely see coexistence: CBDCs as a stable layer for payments, while crypto remains the playground for speculation, DeFi, and cross‑border swaps. The future of money is a hybrid ecosystem balancing trust, freedom, and efficiency.
