So long as some people in the community accept items in trade

that they intend to trade away in the future, then the community

uses indirect exchange. However, if it so happens that no single

commodity is accepted as a medium of exchange by everybody in

the community, then there wouldn't be a money. In other words,

even though lots of people might accept objects intending to

trade them away again, the people use different objects in this

way.
