Have always wonder which currency would the world accept if only one currency was to be used. Maybe the dollar?, don't think so, The British won't tolerate that.
Cryptocurrency?. Maybe. Until the advent of cryptocurrency, I never thought that would be possible but it seems possible.
The world is not too far from a unified currency.

Without us knowing it, the world has accepted crypto as their currency. Many use it to buy goods. However, today there is no official determination of which crypto will become the world's currency. Bitcoin has been on various sites to accept payments. It is possible that Bitcoin is a strong candidate.

There are alot of misconception about crypto replacing fiat. This is something that is not possible. Coming out to think there will be unified currency, I do not think that will be possible also. This is because each country has its on monetary regulations governed by the central bank. Some regional union such as ECOWAS could not even have a unified currency. Crypto is not develop to replace fiat

Cryptocurrency is only an alternative means and cannot be used as one world currency, because no single country regulates it. One world currency will still be held by the Dollar because this currency is the most stable currency and is used as an international currency

Ask why we need to use one currency instead of asking what currency can be used as universal only currency?

There is no reason why we need to stick with only one currency even though it is bitcoin because its literally not possible to make every transactions in this world with only bitcoin because we know how much we need to pay for a transaction when the network clogs at 200K transaction so imagine how much the fee will be when we stuck with 1 million transactions.

States have their own currencies because it is tied to their economies. As a general rule, states issue currencies for the amount of material assets in circulation on the territory of this state. The currency of another state cannot replace the state's own currency. In international relations, you can use a single currency by agreement of several states, however, only their own currency can circulate within the state.
Therefore, the idea of a single currency for all states cannot be implemented in practice.

Well explained, generally speaking all states have their own currency it's symbolizing the capabilities of such place.

Whatever currency the government established around its jurisdictions needs being supported and followed by the citizens residing
around the place, The idea of single currency may happened digitally but with traditional fiat it's still far to reality.
Government wants to control the jurisdicted vicinities.

When it comes to having a one official currency for the world, I don’t think that’s going to happen. And as for those who think that cryptocurrency is that one currency, lol they are all totally wrong because cryptocurrency is not a one currency for the world, there are so many cryptocurrencies and people make use of them, although bitcoin is the one that has more usage than other cryptocurrencies, but others are still competing in the ways that they can and that’s it.

Lastly I don’t see the need for having a one currency, I don’t see what kind of problem that’s going to solve. If there is, then I’d be happy if you’re going to tell me about it. There are more important things we have to focus on doing, we need to fix our system of government first.

There are actually rumors about a single currency being used as the New World Order gets introduced and many are proposing that it could be bitcoin. As for my opinion, the possibility might get close as time passes by since this kind of rumors existed before bitcoin was created so it could either be a coincidence or not. On the other hand, seeing the monetary system of the world, everything is already settled and balanced. Some things may change in the future but it would make a huge impact on nation's relation. Surely cryptocurrency are wonderful but it would have a hard time replacing fiat currencies cause based on what I can see, I think they are made to coexist with one another.

[Nope]No hype delivers more than hope

There will be no currency like that.
You can see how countries that perceive bitcoin as a financial threat are starting to be trusted by many people despite its decentralized nature. Thus, making a unified currency printed by an institution is worse than bitcoin.

Since a particular country has a designated their one and only fiat currency which was legalized by their government, it is hard to accept another unified currency like you are thinking. Especially that cryptocurrency is decentralized and the government wanted to regulate and control the currency. It will just conflict the interest of both centralize and decentralize people.

I know cryptocurrency can be used as an alternative monetary payment system and can be used conveniency without any third party involved but then the anonymous and the volatility is a hot issue that can be discussed carefully by the government sectors.

Most of government gonna oppose crypto if it's planned to be a currency that was meant to be the only one used worldwide. There's reason why today we have so many currencies either from cryptos or fiat released by countries, it's to give them control over their own economy and I honestly doubt we gonna have only one currency for all in the future.
But if it's an alternate currency for dealings like digitally I think it's certainly possible, we use crypto when buying things online and fiat when it's offline. though even crypto itself has so many currencies released each day.

I thought about this problem for a long time when I researched about this market, actually it is very difficult to accept, and I have not seen a concrete solution for it. Although we are seeing many positive and practical applications of this field, however to see it towards a unified currency will happen if all countries are unanimous and unanimous. This earth divide, we are all one country on earth, to be more precise, if that happens then you have the answer, I got inspiration from this movie Independence Day.

There can be a currency that can be accepted in international commerce, but I don't believe that there will be a unified global currency to be accepted by all countries and people. There is no way that countries like North Korea, Iran and even China will ever be subjected to one currency and since different countries are in different economic condition there can be a big problem in assimilation just like what happened to Euro when it was imposed to lesser influential economies of the Eurozone. Plus currency of a country is an expression of sovereignty and that is why we each have our own national currencies. What cryptocurrency is trying to achieve is make them currencies alongside the fiat money. Hell, even in the cryptocurrency market itself there are so many altcoins...proving the fact that unification is impossible. Why have just ONE when many can be more enjoyable? Choices, my friend is the hallmark of democracy.

The idea of a unified currency didn't happen because all countries wanted to print money. They will not be able to accept the use of a currency printed by another country.
For cryptocurrency, too, everyone wants to print their own money.
Monetary unity is the worst idea I have ever known.

You are right mate, the world is moving closer to that because virtually they're a lot of project that is supporting that, by making ready made platform that one can easily create his coin they help such to foster his growth, example STC, Toz BRO and many others.

Bitcoin was not created to be the unified currency and Satoshi never mention it or have the impression when he creates Bitcoin but it the ridiculous impression of some naive altcoin owners that believe cryptocurrency was created as a unified currency and every altcoin owner that respect the legacy of Satoshi shouldn't have the dream of creating any unified crypto.

I'm very confused, why out of the 195 countries in the world, you think that "The British" have some sort of special influence over what would be a universal currency? Do you know why countries like to have control of their own currencies in the first place? It is in part because if they are trusted and productive, they can expand/contract the money supply to suit their economic needs. Just look at China, it likes to heavily control the exchange rate of the Yuan because they can export goods cheaply, which allows them to undercut other countries manufacturing bases and drive out competition, which has been critical to their success over a few decades. The Euro crisis back around 2010 was exasperated for Greece because the ECB had control of their monetary supply and would not allow them to devalue the currency in order to pay debts off. Governments around the world have little interest in losing control of their currencies although they might start allowing digitized versions because cash and coins (especially during Covid) have become more obselete. Besides that, the dollar is effectively a "reserve currency" which is the closest you'll probably find towards a single global monetary unit for many years to come.

Unfortunately, but most likely, there will never be only one currency in the world, and certainly not one that will be accepted by governments all over the world. There can only be a currency accepted by people who exchange it, i.e. Bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency can be such a currency. The one that will be the most convenient, fastest and cheapest will become universal all over the world. I think in the next ten to fifteen years we should find out which cryptocurrency will win this race.

Existing both currencies and cryptocurrencies will happen.

And if there will be a unified currency, this would depend on who's the most powerful country that has an economical value in the world. They can declare and dictate which must be used.

But us, being a community we can declare bitcoin as the unified currency to transact online or any other altcoins that the majority of the community refers.

Nah. Highly doubt it, OP.
Cryptos, mainly Bitcoin, are here to be an alternative payment method.
It would be near impossible for it to be the world currency, because for sure it is gonna be centralized which isn't supposed to be in the first place.
