The history of money is a fascinating journey that spans thousands of years, from bartering systems to digital transactions. In ancient times, people used bartering to exchange goods and services directly. For example, a farmer might trade grain for a blacksmith’s tools. However, this system had limitations, especially when the needs of two parties didn't align, making trade difficult and inefficient.

Bartering was a crucial step in the evolution of money, enabling trade despite its limitations.
