@Fang
Because the more we progressed the more useless barter became so we had to throw emotional support to, say, fancy rocks, metals, etc
When paper money WAS worth something, it was when it had actual Gold backing it up, but when the gold standard dropped, it's now being held up purely because people believe it's worth something.
Gold is valuable to humans because 1) it's a status symbol to have it 2) Easily molded into statues, rings, etc 3) Gold is used in electronics as a conductor
Plus people are attracted to shiny things. |

Actually, it was all good... until they got rid of the gold standard.
After that, paper money is just... paper that is believed to be worth something.
Also did you know that 97% of all money is now just numbers on a computer screen, not even paper money or coins. |
