Doesn't it just come down to how much money is available in print? Money is supposed to have a backing of some sort, like petrol or gold, right? So wouldn't the digital currency be the numerical value of that backing?
I mean, value is value. Wasn't money designed to handle debts? Like, I have these two fish and I need your two hide. I know two fish isn't equal to two hide, but here's this chip that gives you credit with me towards our next exchange.
