"War on Cash" has been a thing for quite a while. Now the Covid-19 scare adds to the issue, over "contaminated banknotes and coins spreading the virus".
If the cash would be abolished and replaced with completely traceable electronic payment we'd see totalitarian oversight that would give Stalin* pause.
*for reference, there was during Soviet days an idea to abolish money, Stalin veto'ed it realising the safety valve role.
Just go back to using metal coins that can be dipped into cleaning chemicals now and then to remove germs.
We can keep using money, we just need to... launder it!
