The cashless society thing is just idiotic religious superstition masquerading as legitimacy. A disgusting number of people still believe that "the number of the beast" from the Bible book of Revelations is literal in some way. Anything that makes paper money obsolete in favor of electronic, especially if it's an implant, is viewed by some in that capacity. It's stupid AF but then again so are religious literalists.
