"Physical" has a specific meaning in financial jargon.

For example, when you trade EUR/USD, you can take "physical delivery" of the position. That doesn't mean that you will get a stack of banknotes, only that the trade will be settled in a different way.

let's give him the benefit of the doubt and take it as "the bits of your private keys in a hardware wallet" :)
