@snipejaeg@wandering.shop @DialMforMara Okay, so, insofar as currency is an arbitrary value store, value is subjective, the price of all goods are arbitrary, anything _could_ be used as currency if people agree to use it as a value store, and exchange rates normalize to reflect relative spending power of currencies across a range of economic systems, you are correct, yes. All currencies lack intrinsic value. You're very perceptive.
