After looking into how money works a little I have come to realize that the value of the money that we work hard for to buy things with is deteriorating due to behind the scenes money printing. What a normal person would go to jail for is done on a massive scale by central banks. Fiat currencies (US dollar, Euro, Pound etc.) in general have no intrinsic value since none of them are still tied to the gold standard. In other words they are backed by nothing. Money is an entry in a database that can be printed on paper and the printing and issuing is centrally controlled behind closed doors. Money is created out of thin air and used to buy things of real value within the economy by those who create it. This inflates the total money supply and devalues the money in your wallet. It's basically theft.

Cryptocurrencies like bitcoin on the other hand are transparent, mathematically limited in supply and can not be controlled by a centralized authority. They are intrinsically scarce and therefor retain their value. They can be used to transact globally without borders or middle men and no authority can tell you what you are allowed to spend them on or can deny you access to your funds.

At the time of writing the Zimbabwean dollar has gone into hyper inflation. 1USD is worth 92,233,720,368,547,760.00 ZWD and the ZWD is no longer a valid currency. 

The Turkish lira has lost around 45% of it's value over the past few weeks and other countries in emerging markets like Argentina, Iran and Venezuela are starting to be affected. We will see where we go from here.
