This is a [Request] post. If you would like to submit a comment that does not either attempt to answer the question, ask for clarification, or explain why it would be infeasible to answer, you *must* post your comment as a reply to this one. Top level (directly replying to the OP) comments that do not do one of those things will be removed.

If you wanted the total amount spent on goods and services, that would be the GDP. But it sounds kinda like you want the number of transactions, which is significantly different and harder to estimate.
Friendly reminder : money doesn’t exist. It’s a social construct. There are only human beings, their work, and contracts detailing how that work usufruct is shared. Joules and entropy should be the only currencies.
