The cost of that reversible fiat system is ongoing inflation that is put as a hidden tax on everyone. I’d rather have those 6bn from speculators going to NK if that means we go back to sub-2% inflation for a while

And the advantage of inflationary currency is growth. With deflation you only get stagnation.
