I see what you mean now.rolf wroteYes it did!VincentKeyboard wrote It didn't go anywhere.
For example if Lebanon printed money to fund the budget deficit then this is where some of it would have went.
Civilian-wise, people simply didn't have as much in terms of value when it went up to 3000 but were relieved financially a bit when it went down to 1500. And as you may know there was excessive illegal activity when it reached 3000. People started stealing and selling copper wires. I lived in Saifi area back then. Pretty much everyone had guns.
However, since the government had to print more money to cover the loss as a result of devaluation to 3000, they likely printed more than they needed and kept a lot.
