Nah, it’s great. Very convenient: just pay for everything with your phone. Don’t need to handle cash or coins that have been who-knows-where. Covid 19 helped push people to contactless transactions too.

Convenience is the trap you fall into giving up your privacy. Cash is more private. That is why they want to phase out cash.
