Venezuela UPDATE. 1 BTC is around 88,000,000 Bs. Last two week it was 77,000,000 Bs. (Bolivares). Monthly minimum wage is less than 9 USD. 666 BTC were traded last week using LBTC (down from 819 BTC last week) which is around 46,106,978,636 Bs.

I'm a Venezuelan "living" here. AMA.

Government issued new Bolivares banknotes. 10,000 Bs. / 20,000 Bs. and 50,000. Bs.. 50,000 Bs. are around 8 USD, since the time they announce them and people get them at the banks they have lost 10% of the value.

This after 5 zeroes were shaved from the currency less than a year ago and 3 zeroes more 12 years ago. So it would be 5,000,000,000,000 Bs.
