It would be great to see them implement an anti-ponzischeme mechanic where the bank sends raiders to come fuck your shit up for defrauding them and it scales based on the ratio of loans paid back to money that was gained by loans
Yes, that too, but it's not the main decision. The main solution is to rethink the trust mechanic. - Why does the maximum loan amount increase after the delivery of the previous one? - Because the bank makes sure that the money that it gives you you spend with benefit and increase. Тherefore, trust should be measured in terms of increased money, not debts repaid. Kleaper received and gave money without increasing it.

I am pretty sure at a certain moment in time you'd own more silver than there is physically on the planet, meaning you'd have to import silver from another one, driving up supply. Irl there are maybe 560k tons of silver, meaning if your rimworld has similar aboundancies you'd own the entire silver reserve of your planet when you've got around 70million in the bank, assuming that 1 silver piece in rimworld is 8g. If you owned ower 70 million in silver, the silver price would start to inflate, as you or your bank would need to import silver from other planets.
you see, thats the interesting thing. Lets take the amerixan Dollar for example $1 will always be one dollar. You may have inflation meaning that $1 has less buying power, but thats because the prices of everything else rise as the dollar is viewed as more worthless (when in reality it was always worthless, just accepted as a medium of trade) So, even if you have all of the currency, you still need to worry about inflation because products and servi es can be seen as more or less valuavle at a given time depensing on the market
@@TheTechmaster1999 you can print trillions of dollar and give it to everyone, but you can't print silver. Also silver has its own value in chemical, tools, metallurgy, jewelry and more. Hoarding silver mean the demand from those businesses will increase.
@@namvo3013 You are correct in that you can't print silver, but the idea of supply vs demand remains.

Diamonds have lots of uses besides jewly such as industrial cutting tools. Point being that even though you may have a currency solidified in the physical realm instead of the imaginary, that does not protect you from the effects on inflation.

I imagine the natural fix would be to limit the number of loans you can take out at the same time. The more fun fix is to have the raid strength from a bank faction scale with debt to them instead of colony wealth on hand so you can't just hide it all in your alternate bank.
@@scienceandponies the better fix would just be to deduct the owed silver from the amount you can borrow, like in real life really, that way you can't use borrowed money to borrow more money and actually need to get richer before the bank agrees to lend you more
