• China buyers go virtually cashless  – The Star
• Norway’s Biggest Bank Calls For Country To Stop Using Cash – Int’l Business Times
• Cashless future underway as Canadian consumers have more credit, debit and app options than ever – CBC
• In Sweden, a Cash-Free Future Nears – NY Times
• Germany proposes new cash ban and capital controls as Europe rushes towards NIRP – Examiner
