The answer to a bank-imposed “cashless” economy is Bitcoin. Bitcoin is the people using a peer-to-peer bulletproof algorithm to take back the base layer of money from the banks.
With Bitcoin as the base layer we can and should still have a physical cash/coin option and we can still call it the “dollar”, but it will be backed by Bitcoin rather than banker greed.
We can have it all, really we can.

We’ll see. Maybe some of us will go to war for our freedom, instead of just laying down and taking it like you apparently are.

Like hell it is. How did I buy what I did this week with cash, then? You must live in some Blue City hellhole.

The world is moving to a new likely QFS system which still utilizes cash No it isn't.

I hate to say it but we are very near going to cashless. Totally. I despise the idea.

Social credit and cashless are not the same thing. Conflating them is lying. And cashless is coming. You just gotta deal. It’s a natural evolution, we always move to the convenient. Yes it has downsides, like all things. But for the majority of the market it’s easier. And that’s why it wins.Cashless is NOT coming. Cashless is HERE.
However, for those who do not comply with the wishes of tyrants and globalists, there will be oppression in the form of cashlessness.
In that vaccuum, other methods of trade will (re)emerge.

Well, until they have an Quantum-proof encryption. I'm thinking 1 trillion byte keys should do the trick.

What we really need is a currency not controlled by any government. Crypto needs to evolve more and can be deleted in a blip.

Pretty much.
Just wondering when they’ll start getting rid of ATMs here, like some of Australia already has started.

Quantum computing may kill the world, especially when coupled with AI.
But for Bitcoin specifically there will undoubtedly be a technological fix to the encryption protocol if needed. Bitcoin is money and money talks, money gets fixed.

It’s not snobbery. Don’t tie your ego to how you buy stuff. Pretty sure you’ve got better things you accomplish. This is basic reality, cash is dead. Ecommerce is king.

I think the biggest thing that will emerge, already has, is just options. There’s hundreds of cryptocurrencies, dozens of cash apps. There’s no way to regulate all of them. It’ll be interesting when the Russia thing calms down enough to get real info. Sure we’ve heard the high profile ones are shut down. But how shut down? Like Burger King. And what about the others. We’ll see.

Wear your mask. That’s already here.
