if we do barter it is not wrong in certain conditions, but I think that means we are going backwards in the world of economic civilization, because the money was created to overcome the problem while doing a barter such as the different needs of two people who make this transaction can be overcome by using currency

Barter existed many years ago where the concept of currency is not yet established,it is also used when there is monetary crisis. People would trade goods which they do not have in their lands so they can make use of products of other lands. The reason why it does not much used in this time is because of the emergence of the concept of money. The advantage of having a medium of exchange is that you do not need to have a product to trade to have a product that you want,you can simply pay money and have something you want. It is also many times more convenient than doing barter trades. 
Barter can be useful in some cases, we use that in our small business here in neighborhood sometimes, to exchange some goods and materials that we need.
Barter era are being gone in some places because of technology but yeah it is still possible to done this thing in so many ways as long as the buyer and seller agreed upon. It just like trading you are buying the coins you want and the seller will sold his holdings to meet the demand and his own satisfaction.
Money is far away better than barter because when we talk about barter, it is about exchanging things to something and it can be manipulative if the person is smart enough to fool the other person about the value of his item that he is offering while money has a fixed value that the people can easily look at to determine if he is paying or exchanging enough value.

the barter system has occurred since there is a payment system that is again the current trend. Barter is exchanging goods of equal value
Introduction to money has helped a lot, since the old barter trading and exchanges would have been very difficult because the world is constantly changing and new Technologies are being introduced everyday. For such technologies like the digital currency it would have been very difficult to trade with the barter system.
Lol… your example of selling services as a consultant to the Bank and getting paid with money is not really the perfect definition. It’s in no way having anything to do with barter. When you do a consulting job for the bank in an exchange for getting paid with money, man what you’re doing is a job, you’re actually working for the bank and not doing trade by barter.
Trade by barter can only exist between two people, when they exchange what they have to get another– let me say that I have a Gucci shoes which I no longer need, but needed Versace shoes. Luckily for me, you happen to have a Versace pair of shoes which you’re ready to exchange for a Gucci pair of shoes. When we both decide on giving what we have to get another, then it’s a trade by barter.

Of course money is a currency, and when bartering you get a product that someone else has to sell to get that day. when bartering, you can get a non-spec, which for a long time can freeze the working capital fund of your capital.

This is the actual reason that why barter system finished. It is the modern age and in this age new developments came to the scene and in these modern fields it is not possible to work out from those old systems that is why the new system. The system of money is introduced for the modern age. I think we do not have to think about the systems which are now old and are out of work.

That's why the money was invented to eliminate all the inconveniences of barter transactions. Barter, this is practically a relic of the past, the Middle Ages. The barter begins to be valued only during the period of hyperinflation in the state or during a period of significant cataclysms, natural or social. We better not go down to barter deals.
From my own personal opinion, if you have read the old and traditional way of earning, it was called barter trading. Since then our ancestors trade their goods for something they need and want. That is when the government decided to print and create money in exchange of every service and goods you take. That is what i have read something about old economic system.
The good thing about bartering is that services don't really depreciate with the exception of technology replacing certain tasks but it's not something that's viable in today's day and age, it's just not versatile enough.
Actually, we moved from barter to money long time ago, and most people decided that money is much more comfortable to use!
barter won't suitable anymore for the current life because very impractical unless you're life in the countries which have high inflations such as Venezuela that barter system can be used at there and besides that people will thinking barter as second options for the payment because use cash for every transactions is more simple and usefull
Barter precisely exchange between goods, either the same kind or not similar but with the same value. You want to replace your car with a motor cycle of course motor value must be equal to the value of the car (regardless of the important motorcycle must be worth the price)
But it is not so easy you have to really find people who want to exchange. What if you have 1 goat and you just want vegetables of course this is very unreasonable.
Many weaknesses in the process of it.

Barter work if the goods have same value. The value determined by both side and i think that will create fair barter. But right now with money, we can easily know the value of goods and we dont have to bargain. Right now, almost rare we can find communities doing barter
