Hyperinflation is real, and it can happen to the United States & Canada, if you think otherwise you are gullible & don't know your history.
Bitcoin, Dash, Ethereum & decentralized p2p electronic transfer of value is not only the future, it's the present answer to such a scenario. Along with some other traditional assets like gold & silver.
Zimbabwe,Turkey, Iran & Venezuela are all experiencing Hyperinflation right now!!
Do you know the last time Zimbabwe had a Hyperinflationary period?
March 2007 - November 2008, History repeats itself.
This is the same time the most recent financial crisis took place, resulting in Bitcoins whitepaper being released by Satoshi Nakamoto.
A major historical precursor of hyperinflation is war that destroys the capital stock of an economy and dramatically reduces output, but the misplaced monetary and fiscal policies that ensue are almost always part of the story.
Even some of the largest economies in the world today; China, Germany, and France have suffered devastating hyperinflationary episodes.
Hyperinflationary episodes have appeared several times over the past century, around 60 times to be more exact, as the world's nations have experimented with fiat currencies backed by the full faith and credit of the governments that issue them.
