Add a UV sanitizing bulb to the aforementioned items, so every note and coin which is deposited gets disinfected automatically. This saves the people who empty the machines the risk of contracting viral infections from it, as well as any cashier's or customers who get change dispensed from them.

       Prediction: Cash no longer holds its value the way UV bulbs do. Criminals* approach UV-equipped ATMs to withdraw cash**; each ATM is then mysteriously less well lit.   

       *Inside The Big House, they call themselves 'businessmen'. Those at large are often called 'politicians'.   

       **You are looking for a 'businessman' who is over 25 years old. Younger businessmen avoid cash altogether, and deal in the trade of honest goods, such as oxycodone, Tide, and soon, UV bulbs.

       While you're enjoying yourself, just drop all your change in the hopper. After all, you want to feel safe, don't you ?
