Existing economics teaches us that mankind invented the monetary system because barter was inconvenient. Despite having a monetary system, people still felt that even currency issued by it was inconvenient; therefore, economists explain that they created the current credit economy system. However, evidence found by anthropologists contradicts that explanation. In other words, it is argued that the credit transaction system existed before the monetary system, and then the credit system became distrusted for some reason. As a result, the monetary system was created and eventually replaced. Cryptocurrency today is a mathematical algorithm that makes it impossible to forge or alter transaction records. This happened because we don’t trust humans, and in ancient times, there was a more advanced credit transaction system. Don’t be fooled into thinking that the present is more advanced than the past. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
The Anchoring Heuristic In 1974, Tversky and Kahneman divided two groups and asked one group to calculate the value of "8x7x6x5x4x3x2x1" and the other group to answer the question "1x2x3x4x5x6x7x8" immediately. The average calculation result of the first group was 2,250, and that of the second group was 512. For both groups, the original answer is 40,320, which is the same. Although they multiplied by the same number, the first group multiplied by the order of the larger number, resulting in a higher baseline adjustment, while the second group did the opposite. When we judge and make decisions, the reference point determines the extent and direction of our illusion. When we live, we have to deal with these fallible human beings. - Joseph's "just my thoughts"
