millions of honest people around the world that have lost their savings when a fiat currency changed its valuation for political reasons. you do not need to be a zealot to appreciate any attempt to create a free currency; you simply need to have a small sense of history and the world around you.
Money isn't for saving long term, it's for spending; if you want to save, buy assets. Inflation is only a problem for those who wrongly mistake money for an asset. The purpose of money is to facilitate trade, not store value.
