>the average fiat currency has a lifespan of roughly half your life expectancy (37yr irrc).

Just like our products, fiat currencies have planned obsolescence and limited lifespans, this is because permanent money is a fantasy that cannot exist in the real world. Almost nothing in the real economy is permanent, not even humans.

If you want a currency that lasts forever it will have to not only have children, it will also have to be able to die like humans.

Ever heard of gold? It worked well for 4000 years, at least.
