Abstract

The evolution of societies over time has led to the circulation of money in its various forms as a means of exchange, and may vary according to the geographical area in which the exchange takes place and has evolved from the use of precious metals such as gold, silver and other metals to the use of coins and securities licensed by the State, It was not just the State's role to oversee the use of cash and cash mines. Its tasks are to give confidence and accept funds as an intermediary for exchange between individuals for the success of the currency and the acceptance of individuals, and to create mutual dominance among States. In our current era the usual cash trades have been reduced to be replaced by electronic transactions and payments or so-called cryptocurrencies, which despite the uncertainty they were initially due to the reality of their virtual/electronic nature was accepted and demand for their prices increased to record levels that were impossible to imagine, It has even made its way to international financial transactions, which have clearly been the focus of everyone's curiosity and interest.
