A quick definition of demonetization:

Term: DEMONETIZATION

Definition: Demonetization means that a metal that was used as money is not used anymore. It is like taking away the value of that metal as money. For example, in the United States, gold was demonetized, which means it was not used as money anymore.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Demonetization refers to the act of withdrawing the status of legal tender from a currency unit or ceasing to use a particular metal as money.

Example: In 2016, the Indian government demonetized all ₹500 and ₹1,000 banknotes, which accounted for 86% of the country's cash in circulation. This move was aimed at curbing corruption, black money, and counterfeit currency.

Explanation: The example illustrates how demonetization involves the discontinuation of a particular currency unit as a legal tender. In this case, the Indian government withdrew the status of legal tender from ₹500 and ₹1,000 banknotes, rendering them useless for transactions. This move aimed to tackle issues such as corruption, black money, and counterfeit currency, which were prevalent in the country's economy.

i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
