Money Through the Ages (Part 2).
345 BCE: Origins of the Words Mint and Money. In the centre of Rome a temple was built, dedicated to goddess Juno Moneta. Juno was the goddess of protection and Moneta is derived from the Latin monere, which means ‘to warn or advise’. It is said that Goddess Juno gave warnings or advice on at least a couple of occasions. First, when the Gauls sacked Rome in 390 BCE, Juno’s sacred geese gave Roman commander Marcus Manlius Capitolinus a heads up that the Gauls were coming, allowing him to protect the Capitol.

The credits are denominated in local currency and can be used to pay for journeys, sent to other users, or used to pay for goods in some shops.

Crypto Trading
Having read the word "trading," you might assume that not everyone can master this profession. You are right to some extent. However, you will succeed if you know a thing or two about trade, take an interest in news and events in the economic sector, and keep track of the exchange rate. You may even learn to make some financial forecasts. Trading cryptocurrency exchange does not differ much from trading on the stock exchange.
