ATM Withdrawal Limits

High-rolling Gringos might have to cut back on

their 'sofisticada' lifestyles.

Or else find another way to access 'efectivo'.

For instance, get an additional Colombia bank

or co-op account and request money at a teller

window instead of an ATM.

Just because one country in Africa puts limits

on ATM withdrawals .. does not mean

a country in South America will follow suit.

Under this hypothetical, I can speculate what the Gran Qi (Quindio Influencer) would do. I should first mention that Qi does not have a Colombia bank account because it might result in undue attention from DINA or immigration at the time of his visa renewal. Qi has a digital wallet called Rappipay that he funds periodically using his Capital One debit card from the U.S. 

He is charged a 2.4% fee for this transaction, so an $800 transfer would cost him $19.20.  Once the money is the account, he can use the Rappi app or its associated debit/card to pay for groceries and utilities. He could then pay his landlord each month by doing a transfer from his Rappi account to the Rappi account of his landlord, or optionally, to the Colombia bank of his landlord, or even another virtual wallet held by his landlord : https://www.larepublica.co/finanzas-per … is-3303568

What if..what if...

What if they make it " 0" and ban all ATMs and credt cards?

What if they kidnap all foriegners and hold them for ransom?

Or something more realstic..

What if there are 2 day line ups for gas like in Venezuela, taxis cost 5 times as much, nobody can leave their city because the protestors have blocked all roads? ( like what  happened in recent history in Colombia)

What if Russia nukes the Northern hemisphere and we are stuck here with no outside communication, limited food , water and electricity, and face a lingering death from radiation like in the old 60s movie " on the beach"?

To answer the ops question, obviously even more transactions would become digital.

But unlikely scenario at this point.

But way things are today, some other totally different " blackswan" event could happen causing the same or worse disruptions.
