From Conventional Currency to Cryptocurrency

Abstract

We ask ourselves: could we have an exclusively economic view on the currency? This question should first come up to our minds when we study the currency phenomena. If the contributions of other social sciences, as anthropology, psychology, philosophy, or history are of a certain interest for the economic sciences, in general, this is even truer for the economic sciences, where the historical approach helps to clarify the true implications of the present as the multidimensional aspect of the currency.
