From Benches to Digital Banking

Your entire bank account history started with a guy sitting on a wooden bench.

That is literally where the word bank comes from, the Italian word Banco meaning bench.

It is crazy to think we went from storing gold in ancient temples and trusting moneylenders to

building one of the most advanced digital systems on earth. India shifted from

British-era banks to a massive nationalized system just to make sure regular people could save money.

Now, thanks to the UPI revolution, you don't even need a wallet.

We went from hoarding grain to scanning QR codes for tea, and honestly, that is the biggest

upgrade in history.
