gollark: Example issue with the central version: you scan your card on a payment terminal to pay one currency unit. But it reads your card's data off, and can now just take as much money as it wants at any time

gollark: Well, it has to be decryptable by payment terminals, so that's useless.
gollark: Anyway, pretty much the only secure way to do this magcard thing would be... having payment terminals bother a central server, and even that would have problems.
