I hope that he decides to work on a neutral payment processing system. Cooperating with the EU’s Linux initiatives, he can probably put quite a bit of weight onto the scale, making a digital Euro into a thing.
So much for cash anonymity. Unless a payment system is completely anonymous whilst supporting secure transactions, it’s a non-starter. Unfortunately the EU does not appear to be able to tolerate privacy for its citizens, hence constant attempts to undermine and curtail any privacy/anonymity-first technologies or concepts.

Would be neat if they integrate it

Was that a cheap shot? If so, I approve.
What a coup if they solve the problem by building their own payment processor company
