#1 Let the Balkanization of Amerika begin. One thing that usually holds a country together is a common currency. Forget the Euro. A currency cannot unite people of vastly different mindsets. One might be forgiven in assuming that the US is in just such a place currently. Not so much geographically as ideologically.

Banning a common currency that you can hold will fractionate the already cracking union. In my neck of the woods (Idaho) I could imagine that a useful form of barter might be used. No records, taxes or other control...wouldn't the Feds just love that....

#4 Considering the w/w decline in faith of the USD, it is only a matter of time.

As this cancer eats its way through, barter, and all it brings with it, will experience a resurgence.
