Weed shops, and a few service industries that don't accept card because of legal reasons for the first, and so no tip income has to be reported. The last basions of cash.

So here's a fun little thing I have been doing with my daughter. She shoots in her middle school archery team.( something that sadly does not exist in western wa) to be on the team is free, but for every tournament she wants to be NASP registered to compete in the fee is ten dollars. I go get cash and then go to the car wash and use their coin machine to get dollar coins to pay for every match. They asked me why. I asked them if I am the only one who pays in dollar coins? I was. Have you ever thought I didn't pay for the match? No was there answer. And why is that? Because we see ten dollar coins on the table and we immediately know you paid. No mess or confusion plus I got the rep as the dad who pays in doubloons.

How will we be compelled to adopt the new digital economy? The new digital serfdom?... Will an invented crisis be precipitated to impel world governments to digitize everything?

Natural assets: tied in with the 'carbon-less' infrastructure, will folks buy shares in lakes or water sheds? Forests?

The IMF announces its platform to become the central clearing house for ALL transactions/settlement and a day later the BIS releases their plans for becoming the central (global) digital monetary clearing house. All of this expected to have us cashless before 2030.
"Now, it’s important to understand that whoever acts as the middleman in global money exchange is going to have all the power, over both governments and their citizens.
In other words, whoever controls the unified ledger also controls all the world’s money.
If every movement of wealth is monitored, from the shift of billions between governments down to your payment for groceries and gas, then every single transaction can be rejected.
Your access to food and fuel would depend on the whim of the observer. Which might not even be human…"
I guess XRP isn't going to be the big player in cross border settlement?

Good one Jukk. Ripple operates in over 120 countries, with over 80 central bank partnerships. Xrp is the unified ledger. More research on that company, will leave you without questions on whats coming. Keep studying. You will know when you get it, because you will have an xrp wallet by then…..
