I imagine Zimbabwe's currency is so far in the toilet at this point that they've had to start issuing notes for numbers like 100 Billion. It's probably worth about £2.50.

Official inflation is quoted at 2.2 million percent but independent finance houses say it's closer to 12.5 million percent.

I wouldn't say senile exactly but it is propaganda tool used by authoritarians over and over again that they are forced to do the things they do to protect their people from the 'enemy'.
