On the other hand, countries like Austria are affirming the right to purchase items in cash. It's only time to kill the $100 bill if you're ready to give up the last bit of privacy one has left.
And really, I expect an actual argument, not: "The fact that — as Sands points out — in certain circles the 500 euro note is known as the “Bin Laden” confirms the arguments against it." I'm just appalled at the stupidity of this meaningless statement. By this reasoning, we should destroy all {insert disliked things here} because in some circles, they are known as {insert negative connotation here}.
What a poor article written by an obvious idiot.

I've also read once that probably 50% of 500€ notes were in Spain, due to the high corruption levels hence all the bribery and untaxed payments. Even the party in government has been caught (actually it is the most corrupt party by far, as far as we know).
