I've always found the debate about money systems pretty abstract, so I turned it into a game. In Cantill One you govern a country with its own currency in a world of 24 countries. You set the interest rate, taxes, spending and tariffs, and you pick a monetary system:

- Fiat: full control over rates, and full temptation to print

- Gold standard: you can still set rates, but money growth is limited and your reserves can run out

- Fixed money supply: no new money, and the market sets the rate

- Bitcoin standard: issuance on a fixed schedule with halvings, the market sets the rate, and the exchange rate swings hard

The name comes from the Cantillon effect: new money doesn't reach everyone at the same time. Cheap credit gives you a boom first, then malinvestment, and eventually a bust. Voters feel inflation right away and compare their purchasing power with other countries.…
