I'm in UK sterling.
At least you did not lose your money, even if it may be worthless.

I am thinking about converting my money to some other currency but I have seen on here (mainly from fearmongers) that no currency is safe. Also, they say to buy gold and silver but on Ebay, those lots of coins that have 90% silver are a ripoff. If silver is only worth $9-something an ounce and you're buying 8 ounces of it, that's $72. I've seen Ebay auctions that charge you double that ($144), which seems like a ripoff. I don't think that gold and silver are going to work and it seems like nothing but a scam made to trap people.
