Sweden reverses course: new law forces shops to accept cash

The government concluded that near-total reliance on digital payments carries unacceptable risks, including system failures and cyberattacks. While Swedes are unenthusiastic about the reversal, authorities point to real vulnerabilities exposed by the cashless experiment.
