once upon a time, you needed to move actual paper bills and cheques to move money

now ? not so much, so, now they are useless
unless.... the network fail down, for whatever reason
then, we have a problem
You're talking about regular banks. OP asked about the federal reserve branches specifically.
they where supposed to give the printed money to the banks
>now ? not so much, so, now they are useless
If memory serves the federal government is not allowed to audit the Federal Reserve banks. There has never been a proper audit of The Fed, meaning all 12 banks are not accountable to anyone.
