The 11 million percent price inflation rate in Zimbabwe was not caused by a 11 million percent reduction in goods supply.
Why would they take money in a rapidly depreciating asset instead of just demanding hard currency that holds value decently well?
That starts mattering when you have nothing really to export and still require supplies (parts and food) from foreign countries.
It's shocking how connected and interdependent industries are now. I can't think of a single thing produced that doesn't need foreign inputs for production. Even apples need ladders for harvest, when one breaks, pesticides and fertilizer.
