I am very much against any proposed solution that begins with "how about

Just put all of your eggs in one basket,  just put everyone's basket in one
bank vault, just put a single bank in change of that vault,  then just wait
for the inevitable : whether freelance hackers or state funded cyber
terrorist, eventually they'll get in and everything falls apart.

Even if they aren't there to steal your/our money,  simply wiping out all
the accounting washes away the lies underpinning the world economy.  I
don't think I'm prepared for that.

Do you have anything in the form of a gradual and understandable change in
the fundamental nature of everyday reality?
