Where cash is stigmatized? I haven't seen such a place except PRC.

Most people want government to be able to seize assets of baddies. It is possible with cash, it is possible with banks, hardly possible with crypto.

The technology to scam people at scale with untraceable emoney is not everybody's cup of tea.

Speaking from a country that invaded its neighbor, for our government (as well as north korea) it is lovely to have a way around sanctions. Libertarian crypto bros of the west are a godsend.

They are also a godsend to current American president which loves a nice side of washed crypto along with all the other theft.

It is absolutely possible to like cash and dislike crypto
