There must be free positive charges, moving oppositely to electrons for the wire with current to stay neutral
All popular expositions (e.g. these ones) of relativistic electromagnetism claim univocally that electrons in motion become more dense due to the speed. They teach that Lorentz contraction of charges ...

How is this classical “paradox” resolved in electromagnetism?
A magnet and a coil move relative to each other. In the frame of reference of the magnet, there is a magnetic field and consequently a force acting on the charges in the coil according to the Lorentz ...
