what would a blockchain solve that any foreign currency would not do in that case? whats the benefit of a blockchain based system compared to dollar or euro cash in such a situation?

A blockchain is run algorithmically and you can't change the rules as you will. There's no way to create a lot of bitcoin out of nothing (except a hard fork, which mean creating a new blockchain), that prevent inflation.
