Your opinion is greatly appreciated.

Simple because, in long run, printing money make value of the money itself reduce, it will make people poorer, thats why its not good for enomony in long run

If it were such a simple solution, there would be no reason why no professional would have thought of it yet; this is what the layperson must really question.

Events in the world like a coronavirus provide further support for the power of money creation to boost economic growth. In Japan, an aggressive program of money printing has started pulling that country out of its two-decade-long economic slump.

Paper money must be printed in any state in the amount of available and produced goods. In order not to engage in barter transactions, various forms of money were invented, which, in fact, are substitutes for the commodity values themselves. If more money is printed and it is not affixed with commodity values, inflation will increase. Therefore, significant printing of money does not actually solve any problems.

It's right. In general, the amount of paper money does not solve anything. Paper money must itself replace the exact amount of the price of all material resources of the state that can be in circulation. Paper money is, in fact, IOUs of the central bank of the state, the right to purchase goods for the amount of the denomination indicated there.

Even printing money isn't the solution, but printing money cannot be separated from human life. Well, Bitcoin may become the solution, but Bitcoin cannot fulfill the needs of printing money. For me, the solution may be using Bitcoin and Fiat together to strengthen the world's economic and financial condition.

Printing money is an easy solution and is always available at the fingertips of people in the helm of the government. Plus we know that almost all central banks are doing it so it has become like a fashionable trend for anyone to participate on. Of course, this is a very myopic approach to solve economic problems and gains short-terms can be outstripped by negative gains in the future. Well, we all live for now anyway that is printing money has become an accepted solution.

Printing extra money is just the initial solution because it's easiest to do. This may give the economy more incentive to grow, but if that development produces less goods than the printed amount of money, inflation will take place and the economy will be worse.
It is the fact that governments can freely print more money that makes the currency lose value has become one of the motivations for Bitcoin to be born and survive to this day.

Printing money is not so bad if it is carried out in moderation, subject to economic rules and aimed at economic development. The term of "life" of paper money is approximately 2-3 years, after which they require replacement. This is one of the disadvantages of paper money. Especially, the shortcomings of paper money were noticed during the coronavirus pandemic after it was revealed that they were capable of carrying this virus. That is why governments have become interested in the possibilities of cryptocurrencies, and also accelerated the adoption of their CBDCs.
