How did money evolve? From metallic coins to digital currency, our ninth-grade economics students embarked on a fascinating journey through history. They studied early barter systems, commodity money like shells and livestock and how metallic coins standardised value across civilisation. They also explored paper money as representative currency backed by precious metals. The project sparked lively discussions about the future of money — digital payments, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and the rise of cashless societies. An insightful look at how money has shaped economies over time and continues to evolve! 🔄💵💻
