Do you ever wonders why we are using this paper as money?

[TooDumbForBitcoin]

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

[virtfund]

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.

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.

[Lorin]

We use paper money for a very long time. It is applicable anywhere and it can use easily even without internet.  And also it was legalized by the government  so theres no fear of using it. Most individual trust paper money rather than bitcoin without knowing the capability of bitcoin and how it can for everyone.

I don't think that this "paper" was created out of this air. It actually represent a trust from a government financial department that it is backed up by the country's GNP. Technically currencies are printed on cotton not paper butni digress. FIAT is very convenient to use compared to crypto currency but convinience is not a sign that it is better

[rose9696]

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.

That's a pretty good theory, but the paper we're using has been recognized internationally. Bitcoin is a new currency developed 10 years ago and now it has become famous. But people just view it as a money transfer tool and it is not enough to become a common currency.

[spongegar]

Well yeah. I guess if that is your perspective and to put it technically you are right. We are actually placinbour trust in the government that this piece of paper we are holding is backed up by the country's GNP and intrinsically has value. Other people don't see this and arr actually just sheep that they jist say that this paper has value.

Yes I agree with you mate it is not reallycreated out of this air and I think it also represent the country on it's name and the value of any paper money is also carried from it. Also I think that I see both  FIAT and Cryptocurrency as a regular local currency that I can use in any payments.

[MAJICOIN]

After barter system famous and dominant currency is paper currency and it is good because we have our wealth in possession and it is a security That we can use it for our needs it is important that you have some money and you can use that for buying and selling of different things Paper money is important and valuable in the present time.

[St4yInTh3D4rk]

True,we just simply follow the others what they have been doing for years but our currency actually not worthy as much of its hold value but this is the only legal trading medium for now and the gold bas can be used but it is not much convenient that is why we should move to the decentralized currency like bitcoin and the other cryptos.

Honestly I'm not wondering why we used paper as money because it issued by government and also paper money is the convenience to used as payment before the digital currency came. Even the digital currency right now is popular and some of them have huge value, still paper money is still used because not all country have a better foundation especially in access to an internet.

[trauchot]

Cryptocurrency is therefore considered to be a virtual currency because it is not recognized worldwide and with cryptocurrency we cant pay in regular stores, therefore we need paper money with the help of which it is easier to make various purchases in the real world at the moment.

If you didn't then you are one of those sheep like people,if government issued means it all perfect?

Honestly the currencies are not issued by the government,it all were created by the central banks of each country and governments agrees to issue them to the people but on what basis they were printing is still a myth.

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.

old generation did not open minded to technology developtment.and i am believe because of that still much people under estimate to cryptocurrency.

They are always demolishing the courage if someone talk about bitcoin before them. They start just yelling and ordering not to get into those fuss. They don’t accept bitcoin or any other virtual currency and as bitcoin is totally nonphysical thing, so this never get counted in their good list. However still bitcoin is progressing and moving towards the successful tenure.

Sometimes before you post something just try to reason it properly. Some people claim that paper money is one of the main transmitter of diseases, but they never get to ask themselves what the world was using before paper money was introduced.

Technology is everywhere now and there are smartphones, so you don’t really have to carry your money around if you choose, but that still doesn’t change the fact that we need paper money. Technology can only be a way to make things quick in some cases.

[bering]

I was never wondering why government in the world majority use paper as money but i think because paper money were officially admitted by government so the government will encourage people to use it for every transactions and unlike digital currency they also believe the currency were they admitted are have stable value which mean it deserve to use as the currency

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.

Lol, some people are fond of questioning things that has been around even before they exist. I came to this world and there was paper money and it’s easy to use, so why complain about it? It’s even much better than using gold or trade by barter system. Paper money is easy to carry and each one has its value, unlike Gold that you can’t carry around.

[Pattart]

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

of course we are not wonders, because this payment system has been agreed upon. this is an old model in payment methods and has been around for hundreds of years. why paper? because there was no technology in that year? do you think what form of money is described, besides paper money and coins in that era?

[iTradeBit]

Interesting supervision. I haven't thought in that way!

Actually paper money in the past is backed by gold but now bank have benn betrayed us. Bank create more money regarfless the amount of gold that mined. Now paper money is a tool that used by capitalist to gain wealthy. Bitcoin is not as good as gold but it's better than fiat.
