re: Spinoff: When do you think we will do away with hard/paper currency in the US?

I think there are a few things standing in the way:

1. We are seeing an influx of immigrants who will operate almost exclusively on cash.

2. A growing distrust of banks (who will most likely be the ones to benefit from e-currency).

3. Knowing that nothing is safe from hackers. We are seeing this almost daily.
