Everybody from barbarian dynasties Liao, Xia and Jin all liked to use Song currency. Foreigner traders were only willing to trade using Song currency and not other currencies, so Song currency was the status of USD today. In 1266, Japan even openly recognized Song currency as its official currency. And Song currency was also widely used in Korea, Vietnam etc, South Asia, West Asia, becoming the supplementary currencies in South India and Arabia countries.
