High inflation erodes the value of assets, money, and causes the country to experience high welfare losses due to the costs experienced in reinvesting these assets or converting them into goods from money. When inflation is incredibly high, confidence is lost in money and its ability to be exchanged for goods, so economic instability occurs and money, becoming more risky, rises further in cost. In these conditions, people get rid of money and choose to barter or use foreign currency instead.
