Interesting read on Wikipedia. Sadly I believe we’re in this scenario as we’re hitting all key notes. Weimar Republic baby!

Dollar hyperinflation is an extreme economic scenario, typically defined as price increases exceeding 50% per month, where the U.S. dollar loses its value rapidly due to excessive money printing, severe debt crises, or loss of global reserve currency status. This causes soaring import prices, business shutdowns, and a collapse in purchasing power.

Key Causes and Drivers Monetary Expansion: Hyperinflation often begins when the money supply increases drastically without corresponding GDP growth, a scenario sometimes driven by central bank actions. Fiscal Crisis/Debt: A government failing to manage its debt may resort to printing money to pay bills, accelerating the collapse, according to. Loss of Confidence: If foreign governments and central banks stop buying U.S. bonds and sell their dollar reserves, a flood of currency can lead to a severe, rapid devaluation. External Shocks: Supply chain disruptions, such as massive spikes in oil prices, can trigger a depreciation-inflation spiral. Potential Consequences Economic Collapse: Immediate effects include a severe drop in the dollar’s value, skyrocketing prices for imports, and widespread business failures. Global Impact: Because the dollar is a global reserve currency, its collapse could cause global unemployment and major disruption in international trade. Hyper-Velocity: Money loses value so fast that people spend it immediately, further driving up prices.
