Numismatics is the study or collection of currency, including coins, tokens, paper money, and related objects. While numismatists are often characterized as students or collectors of coins, the discipline also includes the broader study of money and other payment media used to resolve debts and the exchange of goods.

If you look at the underlined part of the definition of Numismatics, then you should not hate Bitcoin or Crypto currencies. Do you think they classify Bitcoin/Crypto currencies as a payment media?

Do they prefer physical objects over digital payment media? If there are any Numismatists out there, please give your opinion on this subject, because I am very curious where you stand on this. I am a coin collector and I love all forms of payment media.
