Money is more useful than barter in most cases, though, since money is exchangeable for any desirable good or medium. Barter is only useful if both parties want a good or service that the other party can render. As a result, unless two parties actually wish to exchange goods for less than market value, they will opt to do a transaction valuated in currency.

Simply, the transferability of money made it a better store of value than barter which required that both parties desire the object/service proffered by the other person.
The barter system became obsolete because of the problem of Double Coincidence of Wants. This means that for a transaction to take place both parties must require what the other party has to offer and be able to agree on the relative values of each others goods. If I have ten chickens and want a cow, I may not be able to find someone with a cow wanting to exchange it for ten chickens. Society found that to be able to better fulfil our wants, another method of exchange was required, hence money was developed.

Barter is an act where two people agree to exchange goods or services in return for the other. For example when two people barter one may agree to hand over one truck load of wheat for one truck load of rice. They have exchanged one another's goods. This is bartering

I believe, it is a primary market transaction. A secondary market transaction requires an intermediary between the initial seller and the buyer. Which is not the case in a initial public offering. ( It s always better to verify with an economic teacher)
