Currency vs Digital Money

Currency is a system of money in general use within a specific country or economic community. In cryptocurrency, the term refers to digital assets designed to function as mediums of exchange, including both traditional fiat currencies and decentralized digital currencies.

Digital money is any form of currency or monetary value that exists exclusively in electronic form and can be transferred digitally. This includes traditional bank deposits, mobile payment systems, and cryptocurrencies—all representing value without physical cash.
