Fiat money is deeply nihilistic. At core, it's the idea that you can create value from nothing, and by extension, meaning from nothing. In a subtle way it concedes the metaphysical ground, that nothing is the default state, hence trivializing anything and everything. Denial of reality is its inevitable end.
