1) You can save in many ways, not only hoarding the medium of exchange: investing, lending, hoarding real goods, paying in advance... 2) demurrage is not the same thing as inflation, their effects are different: A) Inlflation is an accounting inconvenience. If you think that is not important, just think that the prices must grow exponentially and the period for a given product to increase one unit in price will become shorter and shorter with time. Eventually it will become shorter than a second B) Demurrage lowers real interest rates while inflation only rises nominal interest rates Title: Re: why Freicoin won't work Post by: caston on August 22, 2011, 01:46:04 PM As explained many times: 1) You can save in many ways, not only hoarding the medium of exchange: investing, lending, hoarding real goods, paying in advance... 2) demurrage is not the same thing as inflation, their effects are different: A) Inlflation is an accounting inconvenience.
