>new $100 bill is still paper in the US
whelp...
So /g/, what do you think? Do you think plastic money is the future? Coins? Is paper here to say? Or are the overwhelming majority of transactions going to go electronic in the near future?
Do you think that we will eventually switch to an electronic currency of some form?

Physical currency isn't going anywhere. People who think otherwise are the same people who think we were going to have flying cars in 1995, or driverless cars in 2020.

Driverless cars really will be the future. Not by 2020, but possibly by 2030.
Google's driverless prototype is just the infancy of the technology. Driverless cars will replace most (if not all) shipping jobs in the future, and likely all taxi jobs.
I can imagine driverless cars becoming the norm for car rental services in the future as well. Manual driving will not go away, but it will be replaced in a lot of areas.

VAST MAJORITY of currency is already in digital (non-physical) form, and the US dollar (along with the US economy) is being purposely/gradually phased out as the main world banking standard in what's probably going to be an Asian-based currency in the future if things keep going the way they are. Long-term/Future plan is for RFID chips/implants with ALL-DIGITAL currency placed under the guise of 'convenience' when it will really just make the populous/money easier to control for those in power since vast majority of actual money/power/gold is already monopolized beyond belief or in the process of being so...
Trick is fooling the majority into 'going along' with these plans will dictate how much time we have/rate of actual success

Currency NEEDS to be tangible. Without it, there's no base, and the currency with fail. Personally, I think that the US government needs to do everything it can to raise the value of the dollar, them reinstate exchange between gold and the dollar, putting us back on the gold standard.
When you have a currency without any true reserve backing, or value in the currency itself (gold/silver coins), you're going run into the inevitable failure of said currency. It's basic economics, but governments around the world seem to have forgotten that shit.

Okay, say the government decides that it's going to use an online electronic currency. How do you maintain security on something like that? How do you ensure that your servers are able to keep up with the constant demand of having to update every time a transaction goes through?
or
Say that the government decides that on offline version of electronic currency is to be put in place. How do you prevent double spending? How do you go about distributing the technology to people? If s power grid fails, how are you going to ensure that people are able to buy what they need?

The truth is, most of the shitty dubious claims of "cheap oil, cheap coal, cheap energy" are meant for suckers AHEM I mean prospective investors, so that the cash-strapped exploration companies can get enough operating capital to actually do something besides pose next to a booth babe with a prospectus.
