Disagree. Currency allowed the flourishing of civilization. You can't effectively trade between cultures or at long distances on the barter system.
What we've done with currency since then, yeah, maybe we're on the same side there. But currency, created as an abstract for value, was a great invention. Civilization as we know it would not have been possible without it.
