25:00 What is the deal with CBDCs?

Here we cover how much physical cash and coin - these things we call dollars - exist around the world. This covers a 105 year period, from a time when the dollar was redeemable and convertible into gold, until today, when it is not.

Also, how do you think Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) are going to play into this situation? Why is physical cash still growing so quickly, if it is not "that important" today?
