RE: Ancient shiny coins, unique decentralized ledgers and the first ever airdrop. The history of money Part 1.

I really wonder what those huge stones' actual use was. Why would anyone want to own one of those?

Interesting read once again, thanks!

Sort:  

I don't think they had any other use than a store of value.

Maybe the rightful owners were allowed to break them into smaller pieces that could be used in construction or even trading activities. Or maybe it was just a prophecy of how useless and obsolete physical currency would prove to be in the distant future. (hehe)
