If they can convince other countries with failing currencies to dollarize, that could keep this bubble going for quite a while.

Ok, 3.5 - 8.5% mortgage interest rates make a lot more sense in dollars than in Pesos.

Inflation was in Peso. And I assume that 99% of the mortgage market works on the Dollar. 

I'm a little confused about the situation down there. Wasn't Millei dollarizing the economy?

Are they saying inflation was 288% in dollars or in the old currency that's being abandoned?

And then, which currency are those interest rates in?
