AUSTIN, TEXAS - Should paper money be printed in portrait or landscape mode?
Landscape mode is likely what you’re used to, where the design is printed horizontally across the note.
But the Swiss started a new trend in 1995 of printing their money (francs) vertically. As you generally hold banknotes lengthwise when handing it to somebody, it seems intuitive for their design to match.
(While this was new for the modern era, Chinese banknotes from the Ming dynasty were printed in this fashion too.)
Proto-NFT degen communities like the International Bank Note Society (IBNS) and the International Association of Currency Affairs have given the Swiss awards for these designs, and you can see portrait-mode money adoption take place in several other nations.
