Best advice I was ever given?

"Ticker, you'll be a lot happier once you stop caring about the opinions of a culture that is beneath you."

I learned my worth, learned the places and people that matter.

Opened my eyes.

Well, inherent worth is not a very good feature to have in currency. Well, at the very least, you need them to have less inherent worth than their face value. Otherwise nobody would use coins for currency, but instead sell whatever they're made out of. More or less why nobody uses gold coins any more.

Of course, the other main feature you want in currency is for them to be easy to transport and trade, while bitcoins are totally infeasible to use.

Also there needs to be a guarantor of worth behind a currency. Bitcoin is absolutely worthless since it can be infinitely speculated up and down.

Sweden, the year 1650

You: Thank you for your business, that will be 9 daler please.
Me: *snaps fingers, servant comes in with a 10 daler copper coin on a cart*



You: Here's your change.




The coins were solid copper plates with the metal value equal to the face value.The 10 daler coin weighed about 19kg (41 lbs) and had a value roughly equal to 30 000 SEK, or 3 500 USD today
