ChainCatcher news, according to Bitcoin.com, Germans are strongly skeptical of the digital euro, especially among older users who prioritize privacy and security in financial transactions. Joachim Nagel, president of the German Central Bank (Bundesbank), called cash "sacred" in Germany, reflecting people's deep-rooted concerns about losing control of their personal finances.

The European Central Bank (ECB) plans to address these concerns with strong privacy measures, but doubts remain. Although ECB President Christine Lagarde insisted that the digital euro will coexist with physical cash, many elderly Germans are worried about dependence on technology and potential privacy leaks.
