Japan has introduced its first new banknotes in two decades, marking a significant step in the country's efforts to modernize its currency and combat counterfeiting. The new bills, which began circulating on July 3, 2024, feature innovative security measures and fresh designs that reflect Japan's rich history and progressive values. 日本時隔二十年首次推出新版鈔票，象徵著該國在貨幣現代化和打擊偽鈔方面邁出重要一步。這些新鈔票於 2024 年 7 月 3 日開始流通，採用創新的防偽措施和全新設計，反映了日本豐富的歷史和進步的價值觀。 The most striking feature of the new banknotes is the use of three-dimensional holographic portraits, a world-first technology in paper money. These holograms change appearance depending on the viewing angle, making the bills extremely difficult to replicate. The 10,000-yen note showcases Eiichi Shibusawa, known as the "father of Japanese capitalism," while the 5,000-yen bill honors Umeko Tsuda, a pioneer in women's education. The 1,000-yen note depicts Shibasaburo Kitasato, a renowned medical scientist. These choices reflect Japan's commitment to recognizing figures who have contributed to the nation's economic, social, and scientific progress. 新鈔票最引人注目的特色是採用了三維全像肖像技術，這在紙幣領域尚屬全球首創。這些全像圖會隨觀看角度改變外觀，使鈔票極難仿造。一萬日圓鈔票上印有被稱為「日本資本主義之父」的澀澤榮一（Eiichi Shibusawa）肖像，五千日圓鈔票則表彰女子教育先驅津田梅子（Umeko Tsuda），而一千日圓鈔票則描繪了著名醫學科學家北里柴三郎（Shibasaburo Kitasato）。這些人物選擇反映了日本致力於表彰為國家經濟、社會和科學進步做出貢獻的人物。 In addition to the advanced security features, the new banknotes have been designed with improved accessibility in mind. The denominations are printed in larger font sizes, and the notes incorporate tactile elements to assist visually impaired users. The reverse sides of the bills feature iconic Japanese imagery, including Tokyo Station, wisteria flowers, and Hokusai's famous "Great Wave" woodblock print, celebrating the country's cultural heritage. 除了先進的防偽特徵外，新鈔票的設計也考慮到了改善可及性。面額以更大字體印刷，並加入了觸覺元素以協助視障使用者。鈔票背面則印有日本標誌性景象，包括東京車站、紫藤花和葛飾北齋（Hokusai）著名的《神奈川沖浪裏》浮世繪，彰顯該國豐富的文化遺產。 While the introduction of new banknotes has prompted businesses to upgrade their payment systems, it also highlights the ongoing shift towards digital transactions in Japan. Although cash remains popular, the government is encouraging a move towards cashless payments to enhance economic efficiency. As of 2023, cashless transactions accounted for 39% of consumer spending in Japan, a significant increase over the past decade but still lagging behind many other developed nations. 雖然新鈔票的推出促使企業升級支付系統，但也凸顯了日本正朝向數位交易轉型。儘管現金仍然普及，但政府正鼓勵轉向無現金支付以提高經濟效率。截至 2023 年，...
