You talk about how we should treat snitches to the barter systems. When economies are driven underground, the people who are most willing to use force will run EVERYTHING.

Paper money isn’t worth defending or getting worked up about.

Digital will happen. Question is, what kind of digital? Hopefully the answer is decentralized digital coin, one that has some protection from government definition and manipulation. A number of the top more legit cryptos could do this.

And anyone who breaks their oath of loyalty and silence gets Indian justice. They get burned at the stake, tied over Anthills, or skinned alive and dumped out in Walmart parking lots still alive. I don't give a damned how "brutal and savage" you might think these methods are. But THEY WORK to install fear into those who might snitch. It only needs to be done a couple times to set the example, and then the example lasts for years and years.

Fine with me. I don't want a completely cashless economy. We'll be tracked with our every purchase.

“Render unto Caesar what is Caesar’s.” Use Caesar’s money to spend and buy things of value. Just don’t save it. Use gold, silver, ammunition, non-perishable food, etc. as your savings.

About 95% of all current transactions are cashless.

This horse is out of the barn. It’s run away. And it’s died of old age.

This is where it will end up. We can already see it coming. And you can bet the godless have seized as many reins as they can to stay in power. It's already basically worldwide. I imagine things will be essentially cashless worldwide before this happens. I expect every nation on Earth to eliminate cash in any form and ATM's that accept / dispense cash (that has already started).
