Cash is still useful today releases a bit of pressure for those not wanting to be in the system. If shtf I'm suggesting a local trade network. We got one here, the same as the other 26 in the country (I’ve figured out something a bit more inclusive) but this one will work in extreme circumstances.

It would be like pretending that money was still around, keeps all transactions local, enables more people to buy services & produce, strengthens communities the only negative is for the banks who would be missing out on their transaction fees

Their would still need communication for it to work,, still there are many levels to shtf and this covers many of them, even a financial collapse and it might just save us from fighting over food. This is simply one guy keeping track on a ledger of who owes and is owed with an initial credit of $500 for each participant.

Look up green dollars or barter systems no harm in joining as next year is looking interesting…
Keep it local, friendly and make your community strong if you serious about differcult times, yeah or go bush if you think that people aren't up to it.

I feel that any type of metal would be good for trade. Old coins, made from silver, copper, nickel, and gold. I have seen knives made from old saw blades, if you did not have that skill, you could trade the saw blade to someone who does. I just do not think that paper money would have much used. But who knows..
