Whilst thinking about the Bit-Groat, I came up with something less stupid.
1 bit-goat gets you a goat. 2 bit-goats, male and female is a better investment progeny-wise.
None of this blocky-chainy nonsense, and unlike bit-coins, you can eat them.

I think we should all revert to a straight barter system. The Inland Revenue might be less avid in pursuing people if they were likely to be sent 23.8 wicker baskets or 7.2 cows in payment. |

I'd like to see a big box store where people come in the door with livestock and leave with refrigerators and bigscreen TV's. |

Just last week I visited a friend who used to have a goat,
and we fondly discussed our memories of it. It used to eat
their laundry. Just so you know the drawbacks. |

Was it supposed to eat the laundry ? |
|

Presumably the goat wasn't called "Hotpoint" or "Whirlpool" ? |

Using domestic and domesticated animals has been used as a currency or measure of wealth by many of your planet's cultures for millennia - tribes like the Masai judge status by cattle ownership, and some Arabian groups use camels (the horrible, disgusting, foul-smelling, bad-tempered ugly nuisance, not the brand of cigarette). |

In wales, sheep use the welsh as currency. |
