Fiat currency meaning

Spanish currencies and their value

As we can see in Figure 1, the USD index lost the uptrend - rising highs and rising lows - that began in the 2008 crisis, when the investment bank Lehman Brothers went bankrupt in September 2008.

Until 1971, the currency was issued against gold, i.e. the Central Bank of the United States, the FED, for X tons of gold, issued Y USD. That is, its balance could only increase if there were gold reserves in its coffers, a greater amount of Gold corresponded to a greater amount of dollars and vice versa.

In conclusion, to print a lot of money, the government has to create an exceptional supply of bonds - financial assets - for the central bank to acquire them, issuing money for that purpose, otherwise, it is not possible to increase the amount of money in circulation (simplified explanation, without taking into account the effect of fractional reserves of commercial banks).

First, the trade deficit. Since the financial crisis of 2008, the United States has had growing trade deficits, as we can see in Figure 3. It has been getting worse and worse, approaching the historical maximum that occurred in 2006, in the middle of the U.S. housing craze.

Virtual currencies or vouchers are created and disseminated through the use of distributed ledger or blockchain technology.    Recently their promoters have been selling virtual coins or vouchers in ICOs.    Buyers can use fiat currency (e.g., U.S. dollars) or virtual coins to purchase these virtual coins or vouchers.    Promoters may tell buyers that the capital raised from the sales will be used to fund the development of a digital platform, software or other projects and that the vouchers or virtual coins could be used to access the platform, use the software or otherwise participate in the project.    Some initial developers and vendors may lead the sellers of the virtual currencies or vouchers to expect a return on investment or to participate in a portion of the returns provided by the project. After issuance, the virtual currencies or vouchers may be resold to others in a secondary market on virtual currency exchanges or other platforms.

The price of an old peseta is the value that one wants to give it and that a collector considers appropriate. In Foronum and Todocolección they make estimates of what a collector can pay for a certain coin.

The texture of the banknote, flaws in the edition, older pieces... are factors that influence the profitability of banknotes and coins. Auctions have become a great opportunity to earn money. But not all pesetas have a high value.
