DW NOTE
Zimbabwe's currency has a half-life measured in months, not years. Since 2008 it has tried bearer cheques, bond notes, RTGS dollars, and now ZiG — each collapsed under the same disease: a central bank that prints to cover fiscal gaps. The World Bank's warning isn't about pacing; it's about whether a government that has destroyed four currencies in two decades has suddenly discovered restraint.
