Today, we use money in ways that our ancestors could never have dreamed. 
Evolution has seen us move ever closer to a cashless society. We’ve already seen the 
introduction of alternative currencies; specifically e-electronic currencies. Adoption 
of these alternative currencies has been slow, however, within certain communities, 
their adoption has been vigorous.
