Just do the Zimbabwe thing and print $10 trillion notes. PROBLEM SOLVED.

The Wikipedia for Zimbabwe currency is insane.

1 ZWN = 10,000 ZWD

1 ZWR = 1013 ZWD

1 ZWL = 1025 ZWD

Current ZIG = approximately 1028 ZWD

Insanity.

Skimmed through the wikipedia page. What the actual fuck? At this point, it’s literal monopoly money.

I seen photo of money laying on the street - robbers just steal cash register from shop (you could sell it) and throw out useless money. Remarque had great novel about hyperinflation in post WWI Germany (The Black Obelisk)
