Well kakbe post-apocalypse. There is no infrastructure for printing bucks. And the cola is fucking good. Or the fact itself does not suit you? Some kind of antipathy?

in general, the question is quite adequate, given that in the second fallout, the currency was nkr dollars, in new vegas there were as many as 3 currencies, well, the bottom line is that in the arbor variation, humanity just didn’t develop in 200 years, it is unable to form its own state like a new california, but can only jerk off inside a stadium surrounded by super mutants and trade in lids, and of course the gazebo loves to use what is considered to be something like that in the world of fallout, I don’t even know what to call it, what stands out and is remembered, the attributes of the universe, so to speak, such as desclaw, super mutants, volt battle, caps, but she does not know how to use it, since the scriptwriters are stupid by nature, and not giving a damn about the logic of ENT and common sense, she shoves everything that she thinks fans love, that is, this is the above listed

It seems to me that the same Brotherhood of Steel or the Institute should have already established the production of caps.

The fact that not in the whole world of the fallout mankind has slipped to the level of monkeys, which even a new currency cannot come up with, and in 4 fall there could also be something better than caps

Moreover, the former spend a lot of synths on it, and the latter spend a lot of vertiberds. It is easier to minimize labor by producing conventional closures to increase labor and improve infrastructure. Their policy of isolationism is illogical.

Well, you can still discuss the fact why the caps are also in Boston, given that it has no communication with other large settlements, why it turned out so unanimously that it was the caps that became the world currency and not, for example, absolute barter or cartridges like in the subway, or in general, pre-war money, by the way, which is also difficult to get

They themselves do not need caps for exchange within the Institute or BS. But which is easier to produce? Cannons and cartridges to drain a potential enemy? Or caps that can buy resources and manpower in the Commonwealth?

Making a machine that prints lids is not a problem at all for them.

We will print lids for our own and all the rest of figs with butter.

Scrap metal from lined vertiberds, yeah. It's not even clear where they are stamped in such a quantity, and what for, if it is easier and faster than covers ...
Yes, even adhesive tape. Pre-war counterparts are of better quality. Why collect scrap metal, gold, nuclear materials and other rubbish yourself if they can do it for you? You just scatter the lids. The slaves still need to be controlled, and there are not many people in the BS.
In short, it's like reaching out to the right ear with your left hand, both organizations choose far from easy ways to achieve their goals, this is the whole circus.

I'm talking about this)

If there is a printing press, then inflation is not a problem) As a last resort, technologies (which already exist) will be needed to seize resources, which will be a new measure of value in exchange.

Wild Rider,
what the heck do they want? These organizations seem to be fighting for the idea, and not for the loot

it must first be melted, cleaned, rolled and molded. the game is not worth the candle. even in the modern world, more dough is spent on the production of coins than they are ultimately worth

And small bills - yes. But this is in our world. You cannot judge the costs of producing caps so unambiguously from the point of view of people living in post-apocalypse conditions (yes lol, what does the cost have to do with it in general, in communities where communism reigns). In the fall, the number of pre-war caps is limited, besides, they are of very poor quality, as a rule, and there will be very good demand for caps of decent quality, I suppose ..

They have a stupid idea, I have already said. If in a fallout it is logical, then the world of fallout itself is absolutely illogical.

lore cola was produced in such quantities that you chew these caps. Well, the developers apparently put a dick on the aging factor, since even food in cardboard boxes has not rotted in fallouts for 200 years

Just cheerfully - read - smiled. Can i ask you ? Who among us uses absolutely all types of weapons in the game? That's right - NOBODY. The lids are just for visual variety in the game and for advertising cool US drinks. PR marketing in action. The official currency in the game is, of course, the crumbs, but the liquid ones are only ammunition. Due to the turnover of bullets - mulks - dirty diarrhea - kryhi - you can become a MultiPultiFalGates. As for the paper ones, two years after the nuclear attack, there shouldn't even be ashes of them, and there shouldn't be any smoky, left alone books with charred avenues up to a pile either. Radiation, but atomic decay is a sticky thing ...
