I decided to keep this Zimbabwe $500M note on my desk as a reminder of why I joined #Crypto.
In the 1950s, Zimbabwe’s currency represented real economic value.
Decades of resource mismanagement and unchecked money printing led to hyperinflation, where this note lost half its value every day.
These banknotes were eventually burned for heat, because they were cheaper than wood.
The system ended with $100 trillion notes.
This is why #Decentralization, transparency, and strong governance matter. #Bitcoin #Ethereum #Solana
