i don't understand how something like this happens
Like, if your currency is so worthless why don't they just say "okay, what was 100 yen is now 1 yen" and then bam your currency has just become 1000% more valuable

>>333538302


That's not how much works, But they should have a higher curreny you can use that lowers the number such as we have 1,2,5,10,20,100 dollar bills so even though things used to cost a penny now cost $5 we're not saying it's 500 pennies still.

how is it not though?
like 1000 yen is about $9 usd so let's say the japanese government sits down and says that 100 yen is now 1 yen, that means my 1000 yen has become 10 yen, so now 10 yen is equal to $9 usd
>>
>>333539007

You can't use the same currency. You can make a new one like "Baka's" and say that 100 yen = 1 baka or something like that though.

>>333539007
I don't know how the value of a country's currency is decided but you should read up on hyperinflation.

Because you still have all that other money in circulation which would essentially destroy the economy.
You'd need an entirely new currency

Why not just print new bills that are clearly different and stop printing old ones? Print as much as is in circulation in the other currency and call it a day.

Perhaps they mean that 5 gold is more than their monthly disposable income, though that number still sounds incorrect.

I wish more developers fleshed out their in-world economies. Stuff like Grain Into Gold piques my interest.

WHY NOT JUST MAKE IT BE 1 INSTEAD OF 10? WHY THE NEEDLESS 0 THAT WILL NEVER CHANGE?
