Each individual country.
Sovereign states decide their legal tender and monetary arrangements. (Exceptions/nuances: some countries voluntarily adopt another country’s currency or join a currency union—e.g., eurozone members agreed to use the euro and the ECB then runs monetary policy for them—while other territories may use a foreign currency by treaty or circumstance. But there’s no global authority like the UN or the United States that assigns currencies.)
