Indeed, some people are doing this for many years already but it is never enough to enlighten others to adapt to the system knowing that they don't have the capacity to do it. In any form of cashless payment, nothing has been largely compared to fiat money which means that the majority are still reliant to paper money for their convenience and are most likely don't have a reason to stop using it. The word convenience makes people to choose what they want and a particular method of payment.
I think the irreversible process of switching to non-cash payments has been going on for a long time. All governments, with the help of the banking system, are very strongly promoting this form of payment, of course, they primarily pursue the goal of controlling the financial condition of their citizens. But it is very difficult to draw the attention of the government to the possibilities of cryptocurrency in non-cash payments. But the main role in this will be played by startups that will introduce blockchain into the banking sector, such as Africunia. Therefore, everything is still ahead.

Cashless policy promotion has really been long promoted by the government and other businesses and establishments. It's encouraged to transition in cashless policy because of its convenience and ease of using. The accessibility of digital banking and wallets make it easier for people to make transactions in a snap.

Slowly, it is evident that we are adapting to the dynamic changes which is for the better. Because we also have to keep in par with other countries that offer such. However, the elders and the less privileged ones should be taken into consideration. We can't just hastily transition in cashless payment. Instead we can transition little by little and also retain the traditional payment method for those who aren't able to use and keep pace with digital method of transacting.
