I don't want a cashless society. That's a European thing for the most part.

I want a debit card alternative that doesn't have the same draw backs. I want a solution that doesn't require proprietary banking apps to use.

I agree, the more widely accepted alternatives both physical and digital the better imo. I'm just saying, when people say "cashless society" they're talking about that not about what we want.
