The USA is not all the world. The US rules don't apply in other countries. Rules differ. In many countries _businesses_ have to accept legal tender. Including in my own. That's why it's such a big deal when businesses actually still refuse cash. | ||

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legal_tender > Legal tender is a form of money that courts of law are required to recognize as satisfactory payment in court for any monetary debt. A country may separately require businesses to accept legal tender, if they feel like it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legal_tender#Status_by_country would appear to indicate this distinction is very common in the developed world. | ||
