    i like how my interpretation is completely different to everyone else.

    naturally, if you were to be carrying a unit of monetary value, you would probably want the one that requires less space, and weight, though the primary factor here is weight. (mass if you want to fucking tumblr me)

    30 dollars in bills is more valuable than 30 dollars in coins because it’s more portable.

      They’re fungible, and can be transferred into each other easily. They have the same value but different situational utility.

      Value is not and cannot be derived solely based on utility in a vacuum. This is proven by the marginal utility of too many titties. While one pair of titties may have value based on their utility, each subsequent pair of titties decreases in utility, as you only have so many hands and so much time.
