    Poor people? Since when can a poor person not get a bank account?

    Have you considered that some people don’t have their life all in order? May have a drug issue?

    And since when can a refugee not pay by card?

    The issue is that most arrive in the EU without an EU bank account. So, yeah, the first few weeks or months, they will not have a bank account.

      I get though plenty of drugs and ironicly buy them all cashless with crypto. Those people are still entitled to a basic account under a lot of countries legislation.

        So, one, with most cryptocurrencies you’re not anonymous and every transaction is on a blockchain. Buying drugs with those may bite you later, depending on whether you develop any kind of ambition to be someone who’s interesting enough to investigate. Two, this comment is not about being entitled to a bank account but about having enough order in your life to handle opening/using an accoutlnt.

          And what makes you think that the people youre arguing for, which are btw a tiny minority that is unmeasurable, are better with cash?

      Have you considered that some people don’t have their life all in order? May have a drug issue?

      Yes, i have also considered that i am vegan and stores can still sell meat. Nonissue. Or do you also argue against and ID System?

      The issue is that most arrive in the EU without an EU bank account.

      When i go to the US i can pay with my german mastercard in every store everywhere.
      This is an issue for EU countries to get over, not me.

      Cash and crypto have more bad than good sides.
