Isn’t it implied to be some kind of digital currency? Maybe it’s like accepting Paypal where Paypal can decide to make you jump through hoops to access your money or cut off your access entirely for seemingly arbitrary reasons.
It’s certainly possible for it to be that if you dealt with people deemed verborten by the Republic that it could be frozen, or just transaction denied - so Watto perhaps risked losing all of it for his normal business practices… But I don’t think anything like that was ever mentioned in any of the Star Wars, and it is also a physical currency too (at least sometimes).
