To be fair, big ticket cash purchases are rare. But that's more for convenience. Many kids under 30 still use cash, especially if they're getting paid under the table (which, nowadays, for gig economy kids is a way of life). While I suspect many older people will succumb to the siren song of going cashless, most of won't fall for the trick.
I don't deny that crypto regulation is coming. But it'll simply be a business-insulating barrier to competition versus a "protect the little guy" edifice.
