- demonetization - a widely used medium of exchange ceasing to be one
Historically, demonetization has happened through
- hyperinflation - the money is devalued
- bimetallic standard - changing from using gold to silver
- metallic standard is abolished/defaulted on (e.g. 1971 - https://wtfhappenedin1971.com/)
When the EU adopted the euro, it demonetized local currencies (e.g. Italian lira) and monetized the euro.
