No electronic system is safe enough to guaranty secret because it depends on too many other systems.
It would just be a trojan horse for total control.
In fact, it would allow big actors to pretend giving freedom while in fact having perfect discreet local control when they want.
At least with cash, it's clear when you face a hostile system.

Unfortunately the longer term likelihood of retaining a cash infrastructure is equally small, at least as a realistic, effective and affordable option to pay for what people actually want to pay for.
