    This is kinda like the UPI(Unified Payment Interface) system we've got in India, well UPI is not a digital currency, but just a payment method, linking our bank accounts with a virtual payment address, opened with third party apps like GooglePay, JioPay, SBI Yoni, etc It's actually pretty convenient using UPI with QR codes for payments. UPI was started by NCPI(National Payments Corporation of India) which is owned by banks and those third party participants, along with the Reserve Bank of India, so I guess the data is being collected by the govt. here too....

    You are right, they should in theory not be allows to refuse it, but the government hasn't cracked down on the practice hard offline so far, plus it's a little harder to monitor every last dumpling stand across the country, especially when they can just say "sorry, I don't have any change right now. Do you have Alipay?" The thought is that enforcement online should be easier as there are fewer merchants and its easier to track what payment methods they do or don't accept

  • @cyzcyt

    People are already refusing cash. Even in the west. It's like when you get a Uber and you have to pay through the app. The app's gateway basically forces users to use only those approved options. When there is no cash option, you are forced not to use cash. Ie: you can't just order a Uber and then pay the driver directly with cash. It's the same here in China. Except imagine not just limited to ubers or e-commerce. Imagine like going to a small street food truck type shop, and they ask you to pay them using their QR code. You are probably already using a system like this, which cash is refused but you aren't aware of it. Like my town's public bus system would only accept exact change in coins. Or you could go get a prepaid card from the station. Bus drivers would refuse to give back change. Or use any other payment methods

Counterfeits in china are very hard to tell the real from fakes. Another reason is laziness, collect cash and you will need to travel to bank it in. No other place likes using cash so why accept it in the first place?

So this regulations pretty much normal here, everyone with OVO, DANA or Gopay account do same thing. Their justification is to prevent fraud because it's working like bank account, people just transfer their balance from normal bank to this app for convenience.

    I don't understand why we are still talking about "digital currency" = "cashless" in the comment section. Cashless society is already a reality in China so it's certainly not something the Gov is trying to push rn. "Cashless" means M1 or even M2 goes virtual, but every number in your Alipay is still corresponding to a paper bill in the bank, which means whenever you do a purchase, both your digital wallet /card and the seller need to inform the bank to change the owner of that certain amount of paper bills lying in the safe of that bank. Whereas "digital currency" is the paper bill itself, it means M0. When you do a purchase, the money just go to the seller's pocket without notifying anyone just like what you do with a real paper bill. Chinese gov is trying to find a way to avoid the potential, financial and international lockdown on China by the US through the swift system.

It is also the same around the world because the whole world uses Visa and MasterCard and both Visa and MasterCard is able to see the spending habits of all the people around the world. They can then sell this data to respective companies to use for their marketing purposes.

    We westerners just don't understand what China is doing. We westerners just don't understand that economies, countries fight each other. It's not about being democratic and being vocal and happy about it. It is about how good you can be on the play field of the globe, where resources are indeed finite, gains can only happen to one side when the others are loosing and the rules are not set at all. Anything, any strategy is welcome. Win the global war for finite resources, win the global war of creating a society that is capable of living through ages, eons. Win the war for getting your culture stay alive, win the war to secure your place on earth for the coming few thousand years. That is the game they are playing. We seem to be puppets in that game for the last decades or so. If you can win this war, great. If you can keep your citizens (your people) more or less happy at the same time, congratulations, you did a great job. And we westerners are whining about "distopian", "orwellian". Ehh. Would be good to see results on "individual happiness level" of people in West vs China.

    Most time having knowledge or insight about a particular activity can as well be a pleasing exercise. I can boldly say that forex and crypto trading is one of the profitable money exchange services that elevates investors and their financial status.

    Runescape is actually very interesting. It has under the table worked as an economy since basically forever, but the reintroduction of free trade in 2010 sent it to new unseen heights. The gp is so consistently valuable that there are multiple companies formed around the currency. The main con to gp as of now is that it's all under the table so the fees to cash in or out are high.

    India almost all digital transaction are done with the currency from bank account to account with the UPI technology, where users mobile no are linked with the bank. Digital wallet companies couldn't complete with UPI and adopted UPI.

    Totally different, UPI is a national backed transfer platform. DCEP is national backed currency - M0, which is RMB. The first country in the world implementing this recently

    From my understanding there is a tiered security system. Two wallets can transact small quantities of money between each other without an internet connection right away. Once one of the two goes online, the transaction syncs back up online. Bigger transactions would need to be verified online (and users need to pass stricter KYC requirements too, btw, not just a phone number)
