Wasn't money digitized long before crypto? And what money you are talking about? That funny sheets of paper that have value set by CB?
When money lost backing with anything, they become a completely controlled tool of elites. If you think that cash in your pocket is yours, you are deeply misguided. At any time that paper could become nothing at will of some retarded state official. Since that time, it does not matter, are money represented as paper or as digits in bank database. In any case they are totally controlled by government. If you believe that it will be a problem for state to control you if you are using cash, than think again. You could begin from tha fact that every single banknote have unique number. Add cameras everywhere and all "your" purchases and earnings could be tracked easily.
IDK, what kind of money could be a decent replacement for modern crap, may be some kind of batteries, f.e. with kWh as unit of value, whatever. In any case it should be something that you could use directly, without any interaction with anybody. Otherwise money will be exploited by elites again. One who will invent such money will be a legend for millenia, as one of those who finally put the end to the parasites power.
That is why I think that crypto is a very important stage of fair money system development. It undoubtly proved that there is absolutely no need in any corporate/state authority for universal money system to exist. It's time to move onto next stage in fair money system development.
The root of problem is not in form of money, but in ability of some entity, in our case it is governments, to control them and their value.
So, the final solution should be in creating money that could not be controlled by anybody at all.
Closest thing that was invented is p2p crypto, it is controlled by distributed network of independent users, but that independent crypto depends on internet and power that is controlled by state and corporations. Also, crypto could not be used by itself, you have to find somebody who will agree to exchange something to your crypto. So, it is not a final solution.
I think that thinking out some unvulnerable form of money, instead of staiting obvious thing that fiat currency controlled by government or any other third-party is a crap will be much more productive and way more interesting.
But we know even simpler solutions from the past can work without much help from tech
Yes, in the past, f.e. a bag of flour was a decent mean of exchange. And most important thing that you could use this "coin" for your own needs without any other third-party, directly. Unless you need some third-party to use your money, it is vulnerable.
Also, bag of flour have another important property - you can't accumulate much and for a long time. You should either use it, either exchange for goods. There was no possibility for extremely wealthy "flour elite" creation.
However, of course, today, bag of flour can't be a widely used mean of exchange. So, we have to think out some modern replacement.
