Topic: Do you ever wonders why we are using this paper as money? - page 5. (Read 1835 times)
Paper money or traditional money is how many centuries that existed from the barter system and until now we currently used a paper money. Before they used trading via barter item to another item but they found out that some item not worth with another one so they created paper money which is first is a form of coin. Now, paper money is very important to us and I think the digital money that we slowly adopt now can't replace this.
Because using banknotes is still an useful and a practical way as a payment tool. World economy is not totally digitalized and there are billions of people who even does not have an internet access. There are so many innovations wait for their time. For example, electric motors are invented more than a century before but they are started to be commonly used by the effect of green house problem. I think, bitcoin runs into the same problem and it is not only problem which must be overcomed.
Because it is overall agreement of payment unit. Paper money are displaced by digital payments. You need to ask about the money system and not about the form
I just smile when some people boast of paper where they are easily damaged, torn, and for sure they are easily faked. whereas crypto will never be faked and won't break, that's all
I do not know what currency you use, but the American dollar is very lasting and practically not fake.In view of the very rapid development of all mankind and also new technologies over time, paper money will disappear by itself.And by far the cryptocurrency will replace fiat money.
banknotes are currently printed to create value in a country that is made of a monetary policy to provide a balance between the value of money and goods, but in it is formed already includes the politics of banks and politicians. the money they print does not have a substitute base such as gold and other noble logic which will later increase inflation in the community.
very different from cryptocurrency which has a supply and distribution that is clear and difficult to fake like banknotes.
in the future when people understand the superiority of crypto they will think again to use paper money

we are using paper as money because the government already decided it. we can not change, only can accept. 
i think that the government want we to use paper money because paper money is what can help them to maintain and control a country.

In my opinion, they are thinking like that because they dont have the knowledge about our modern technologies today, most of the people who are criticizing cryptocurrency are those people who are old enough that they cannot understand how to operate a simple ipad, so they literally dont have a clue about the way our system is going.
They are not just the paper but paper with a legal tender and the word of the government that it is the responsibility of the government to let you have anything legal commodity with the paper money provided the value of commodity matches what you are willing to pay. So this is what the government promises and of course has such a great amount of advantages that it carry out and meet the needs of everyone who hold it.
That's because paper currency are believed to have value and are also legitimate by the government, so paper currency can be used to buy all your needs. Not because of the paper, but because of the approval from the government and also a belief that it has value.
yes right, not because of what money is made but what makes money valuable is the trust of all parties to an object that is considered to have value to be used as a medium of exchange and buy something you need, no matter the money is made of paper or metal, or even virtual like crypto currencies, as long as there is still a lot of trust in exchange rates that can be called money
I have never questioned and questioned paper as money, because paper has been used globally and the whole world uses paper as money that might retain its historical value. for bitcoin I don't think it's money because bitcoin is a very valuable digital asset, even though it's only a digital asset but it's something that must be owned just like money that can be used to transact and also investment.
I'd never question it too, since it exist even before I exist, it is used widely and convenient to use without internet needed.
People are still using money including me because it's a human nature already and we can not just jump right into using crypto and leave fiat currency for so many reasons. One good reason there is that i can use fiat currency instantly when i buy food in restaurants or when i watch for movies. For now, fiat currency remains the best and convenient medium to buy stuffs that you like.

Just want to share the details about the people who ever thinks that why we need to use just paper as currency and we all are working hard to get those paper.People claiming that bitcoin is not virtual so it cannot be considered as money or they call it as scam or ponzi but they are using just papers for centuries and those paper currency were made out of thin air.
Don't stressed out your brain too much on how paper made out of thin air is commonly used nowadays.If you are really serious then try to make some research.Sometimes being optimistic too much on a certain things will really put you on dumber state and presuming things that aren't really possible like talking bitcoin would replace or more worthy to be
used as a currency than fiat which is really impossible.

It does not matter how work is rewarded, the main thing is to be on time and regularly, as people want to plan their lives.
i dont know what to say, but.its really money
We use paper as money because our Central banks said that those papers and coins are money. People used gold, silver and other stuff as money in the past. For something to be money, it is needed to be accepted by the people.
I did when I was a kid and then I read about it in the encyclopedia.

This paper money has been around for hundreds of years, as a means of exchange and developed into a currency and has value. you're right this is an old-fashioned way, because this method was taken from the past, technological changes will definitely occur, but it takes a process, because the government is not likely to directly implement digital and virtual currency in their country, because of many things such as human resources who do not understand thatSort of like the cheque we have right now. That just evolved over time into banknotes printed by the governments and got this big. Bitcoin for example is just a digital asset that normally has no value AT ALL but we say it worths something and it does, normally all money you know are like that but at least most of it has a backing from a government, when you have 10 dollar banknote in your hand government says you own 10 dollars, in bitcoin there is nothing like that neither and we still find it valuable.
We are using paper money because our government has implemented it for many years. We used it for daily basis and no one can deny how important paper money world wide.
It is a system that has existed since ancient times and I am not wonders but Im think its reasonable why we use paper money. because at that time the technology did not support it. but nowadays the world is increasingly advanced and sophisticated. so I will increasingly believe that paper money will be less and digital currencies will be increasingly popular Jump to:
