Long before our species put value on metals like gold , we were nomadic and naked 200,000 years ago. Our socializing over time lead us to form groups. In that our first "currency" was food and territory. I find gold and diamonds and even "bitcoin" all bullshit scams which all amount to justification to control resources.
But regardless, no matter what "transactional" model humans come up with, we will always be a social species. I'd argue the biggest scam humans intentionally and unintentionally inflict on each other is religion. "The promise of an impossible utopia".
Currency is not artificial. What a stupid thing to say. Currency is a means by which the barter system keeps you from having to exchange a wheelbarrow full of turnips for a load of bread.

It is artificial. Prior to paper and metal, our species traded food, animals and even children.
I wish you would stop stupidly assuming we are in disagreement. I think you simply love disagreeing with me just to do so.
In sports every sport has different scoring schemes. In the NFL a score or "touchdown" is worth 6 points prior to extra point. In soccer a score is worth 1 point. In Tennis the first point is 15. But all of those themes represent one completion of a score.
Yen represents Japanese Currency. Euro represents European currency.
Our species existed long before our creation of paper currency and coins. Just like we existed before the NFL, MLB, Pro soccer or golf.
