That's really the question. How do people in Venuzuela even buy Bitcoin? What do they buy it with? Nobody will swap Bitcoin for their Bolivars, since (as we've decided) Bitcoin is better money than Bolivars.

Price inflation happens daily. You can store your value on Bitcoin and exchange it for enough bolivars just before you go to the supermarket.
