Very stable, from what I can tell, though with significant regional variation.

High end restaurants will never be cashless. And you can cash tip at a cashless restaurant. The tip isn’t going to the business.
Wow. High end went cashless first of all here. Probably a decade ago.
But yes - cashless is obviously not w.r.t tips. But once a society is 99% cashless no one carries cash so won’t cash tip either.
