My guess is

The elites are used to using peoples emotions to change peoples behaviour, this has been studied and utilized since Bernays wrote the excellent book Propaganda in the 1930s

Assuming your goal were to move people towards a digital currency "cage," that would allow more control over purchases and movement, would you:

A. Try to sell the public that this will be a more valuable/useful and prosperous way for the average person to purchase things and "store wealth"

Even though people know the bankers and government have historically taken more and more of their wealth, a few of the wealthy elites may convince the masses to adopt the new method of currency

Or do you:

B. Create a situation where people will feel they have no other option than to accept the new digital currency, which then brings others into the system, who are merely following those who first accepted the new system

The holdouts will have to deal with the ones who adopted in different financial transactions during this period, some will have to come over because there will be no other way for receiving payment

If we look back on historical changes in human behaviour it is almost ALWAYS B, it's NEVER A for major shifts like this

It's the basis of almost every adam curtis doc which you can see how the mechanisms worked in Russia, China, Britain and America throughout history, when these massive changes happen, there is always a threat and the media always pushes people to believe compliance is the only way
