From my aunt in Lebanon today.
“Look at what state we have reached! Instead of giving a receipt they write the price on the veggies. Oranges are 44k and potatoes are 42k. $1 = L. L 88k. God knows where we will be next”
The prices in local currency have gone ballistic (doubled in the past month) because the central bank is blowing out the currency. Yet, everything is priced in relation to the dollar. Meanwhile, banks have halted withdrawals. The people are drowning because their money is worthless #bitcoin fixes this
