Here's an (2015) IMF paper that explains how to create a digital currency while charging interest on a paper currency >>>

https://www.imf.org/external/pubs/ft/wp/2015/wp15224.pdf

The idea is, congress tells the FED to offer accounts for everyone

(see: Bankink for All Act : Text: S.3571 — 116th Congress (2019-2020) ::: https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/senate-bill/3571/text)

and deposit digital dollars in those accounts. At the same time, the FED lowers interest rates on paper currency to say -4%. The commercial banks pass that cost onto their liabilities. You can either spend your "money" or watch it dwindle away.
