>The irony is that no matter what you do there will only ever be a finite supply of any currency, fiat or otherwise. It's a finite universe, so "finite supply" is inherently imposed by the laws of physics. I'm not so certain that holds true. You could, in theory, either in a game or in real life, create a currency item that represents infinite currency. There would a finite number of physical representation of such items (if done is real life), and people would only place a finite value on it, but it would still representing an infinite number of whatever currency. You could even digitally create an infinite number of such infinite currencies. Depending upon exactly how they behave, it would quickly make the currency worthless about as fast as people conceptualized what infinite means, but at the core there would be an infinite amount of money.
