Triggering hyperinflation via counterfeiting is probably not realistic given how "on guard" States are about exactly that. Nor would it likely get rid of Money; places where there is no money, but where people have previously relied on it as a medium of exchange (e.g., prison), tend to invent their own forms of money.
It may be that the best we can do at this point is to accept money itself as a method of organization and find a way to subject it to some sort of democratic control, in 3/
