Maybe an evolution of what was covered in
this previous slashdot story [slashdot.org] would be the right thing. Is anonymous, requires not so high tech, and in the current form is in use in several countries. To be more practical maybe it should be not so "dumb" as actual smart cards, maybe providing a way to transfer money from card to card directly and safely (PDAs?)
But still will be based in the way we see money today, even if exist better conceptual ways to give value to work, ideas, etc, the actual economy is very based in the money per se, not in actual value of things.
The other thing I believe that could change (maybe in more than 25 year) is some way of unified money and values around the world, that the same product cost the same anywhere (in similar amount of hours of work or something like that, no mean US dollars)
