I don't know. I think He'd also be concerned in how the money we use is produced and if it were used as an economic weapon to steal from the poor and give to the rich.
And credit-based money seems particularly nefarious.

I don't disagree, but I also don't think any monetary system can claim God's endorsement. It is all just a tool. No currency can correct intention. You can still use Bitcoin as a weapon. Bitcoin can still become an idol. It does not point to God (anymore than anything else), it is just a thing. A thing ontologically lower than rocks.
Technically, it can't be much lower than rocks, since it exists in the form of modified rocks.
I'm assuming the opposite: Money is always an artefact of some inefficiency or error within the human society, and we should try to avoid exacerbating that by using money that is _in itself_ highly corrupt.
You can always cause more harm, by using worse tools. The tools should be as neutral, as possible.
