It's the same thing as if EU jumped to ban our classic, leather, pocket wallets. Pure bullshit, except if this is marketing?


Limit monthly cash withdrawals to 100 EUR

Limit cash currency exchange to 100 EUR (or just outlaw it)

Wait for some time

Retract cash being mandatory debt settling tender

Wait a little more

And then pompously declare, that only criminals need cash (not far from truth, anybody but criminals and hardcore privacy people will be driven away by then) and ban it completely.


If your leather wallet has more than $10,000 in it, there are restrictions today on what you can do with it anonymously.


What about the EU banning ivory wallets?
