The fact that the legacy banks and government all want us to go cashless tells us how much we need to keep cash going. The way I see it, an ideal future would include both cash (preferably gold or silver backed) and crypto (preferably with plenty of privacy built in).
CBDC's and government/bank run cashless systems are a dystopian nightmare, enabling total surveillance and control of what we spend, who we spend it with (approved people only), and where we are at all times as our mobile devices with in-built wallets enable 100% tracking.
It also means genocide for those who are illiterate, disabled in ways that prevent use of cashless mechanisms (e.g. the blind, deaf, or those with facial problems that prevent facial recognition software working properly to unlock their devices), and of course those with opinions which are not approved by the ruling elite.
Great point
