Tattoos, fortunately in this case, are not anywhere near perfect,
making the idea unworkable.
It is much more likely that an RFID chip would be used,
but you would be very wise to refuse its implantation to the bitter end.
I also believe that cash will Always exist because those in power
will never have a better way to pay and take bribes.

On a person's body? That would be stupid. Tattoos don't hold shape and can be easily copied. Even RFID chips are a dumb idea.

It'll never happen. There will always be alternative payment options, look at Bitcoin for example. It isn't paper/coin, it's digital and it doesn't use the banking system either.
