Yup, the plan is you get told how much you can spend on groceries, petrol etc, Bitcoin is apparently the way ahead…

Not unless its adopted rapidly as a general means for point of use payments.
Cant see Tesco / Sainsbury taking Bitcoin any time soon. Bank of England already looking at their own crypto for more control.

Barclays to cut more than 450 jobs despite billion-pound quarterly profits
The cuts represent around 1% of Barclays’ UK workforce
www.standard.co.uk
Kept telling the bank staff do they to lose there job? Every time went into bank they kept saying you can do this on line.
If I go online you haven't got a job if I have problem I want face to face to help sort problem out Not some AI bot. And now banks are getting rid of staff. Banks are not looking after there customers or staff.

And more on cash demise....
"We are looking at the case for issuing a digital pound. This type of money is known as a central bank digital currency (CBDC). It would not replace cash"
"The digital pound would be a new type of money issued by the Bank of England for everyone to use for day-to-day spending. You would be able to use it in-store or online to make payments"

On the subject of cash, I was up at 'Asda' earlier and there were some 'Can rattlers' collecting for a local charity. No one was putting any money in because no one has change any more. (That's my theory anyway.)
They will need to get card readers.
I was at asda too around 11.30am, one had just got there and sitting down by the bottom entrance.

Was he reading a book?
The ones I saw were collecting for 'Downs' and were in the shop foyer. Obviously had permission to be there.
