“Cash is the dirtiest secret of the modern economy. It belongs to a 200-year-old economy. It’s being allowed to play a role because it suits vested interests.”
is an odd statement. Cash goes back to at least the 30 pieces of silver in the Bible, it's not much of a secret and I wonder who the "vested interests" are. Perhaps the several billion people who use it daily? And "allowed to play a role" is odd as it's the standard system everywhere. Maybe Banga dreams of a world where Visa and Mastercard have the power to ban cash but perhaps still graciously allow it to play a role. I hope that does not happen.
