The main focus of this project will be on physical transactions and currency, and the new paradigm of shopping and spending that has unfolded in a short span of time, and the manner in which it has had an effect on both our social tendencies and our economic growth, in various industries, to varying degrees.
While there have been many areas of our lives that have been effected by COVID-19, perhaps one of the most direct, and easiest to measure, is the way in which we earn, spend, save, transact, and interact with currency and money. While this is only one small portion of the greater battle towards understanding COVID-19, we can glimpse many insights into the behavior and tendencies of the population, and perhaps the changes we may see in the future of the economy.
