I don't really understand this.
Currency doesn't affect individual products normally. It affects who is shopping. If I am from USA and visit your site, I want to know what it will cost me in USD. The same for people in EU that use EUR.

I am not going to buy Product A with 100 USD and then open an account in Europe and buy Product B with my EUR account.

You setup currencies based on what country is visiting you. All you need to do is choose your default currency and set that to exchange rate 1.00000
All other currencies are auto-updated daily when visiting the Admin dashboard. They always follow the 1.000 rate for their exchanges.

So a 100 USD product will show up as a 77 EUR item when people from europe are shopping your site. You still make the same amount of money. It is meant for the customer to know

@ Qphoria,
there is an increasing number of dropsshipping ecommerce and these are the one that require this feature the most. This kind of e-shop usually sell only in the country where they are present and tend to buy from different suppliers in different country, (mostly US, TW, CN, etc)

Does it make more sense to you now.

PS since Opencart can already deal with different currency extending this feat. to every single product shouldn't bee to difficult from a coding point of view.

On another note, cherokhe just for your information Virtuemart handles multi-currency very well natively. (from experience)
Of course Virtuemart is much more than an simple e-commerce system thanks to joomla therefore you have to make the call and decide the way to go.
I used and I'll use VM for those projects were I need also a CMS. For a simple and straight forward e-commerce system i'm trying OC which in my opinion should suit better than VM.
