*In* *this series**, I assume the role of a reader instead of a writer, discussing articles by other writers... things I recommend.* https://read.cash/@Mictorrani/index-over-my-articles-at-read-cash-5f7c1e34#suggested-reading We start with the history of money. @dave_gutteridge has written an excellent essay, where he questions the generally believed theory, that the origin of money was barter. He writes: https://read.cash/@dave_gutteridge “*The only trouble is that this story is completely untrue. According to anthropologists, there is literally no record in history of any society starting with a barter system and then transitioning to a currency system. The whole concept of currency solving the problems of bartering is a complete myth. It only gets passed around as fact because it seems so intuitively believable.* And he continues: “*I believed it when I first heard it. But, let this really sink in, it never happened. Or, at least, there is absolutely no evidence it ever happened, and plenty of evidence for other systems of commerce before currency.“* Read more in The Story Crypto Tells Itself About The Origin of Money by @dave_gutteridge. https://read.cash/@dave_gutteridge/the-story-crypto-tells-itself-about-the-origin-of-money-a1a398ae The next article I suggest for reading is Be your Own bank Using BCH to enhance Your freedom in a decentralized economy by @alberdioni8406 . https://read.cash/@alberdioni8406/be-your-own-bank-using-bch-to-enhance-your-freedom-in-a-decentralized-economy-59a41bc6 Then we have two articles by @SapphireCrypto - The Implosion Of The First World Is Creating The Bitcoin World and Three Crypto-Based Browsers With Built-In Rewards. https://read.cash/@SapphireCrypto https://read.cash/@SapphireCrypto/the-implosion-of-the-first-world-is-creating-the-bitcoin-world-39bf5334 https://read.cash/@SapphireCrypto/three-crypto-based-browsers-with-built-in-rewards-b02e8c0d @meitanteikudo wrote about Crossing Blockchains with Cross-chain Bridges. https://read.cash/@meitanteikudo https://read.cash/@meitanteikudo/crossing-blockchains-with-cross-chain-bridges-3a2826b1 For newbies here, @Lixten well sums up what to think of in Getting Started in Read.cash: Useful Tips and Guide for Beginners. https://read.cash/@Lixten https://read.cash/@Lixten/getting-started-in-readcash-useful-tips-and-guide-for-beginners-3654a20b @Loucy writes about Blockchain and the worst enemy of Sustainable Development Goals. https://read.cash/@Loucy https://read.cash/@Loucy/blockchain-and-the-worst-enemy-of-sustainable-development-goals-2e9f4469 Ukraine has been a the very centre of world news the recent week.
