Venezuela's 'Default' Crisis Boosts 4000% Inflation Bolivar value against dollar, one-27th of last year The Venezuelan economy, which is facing the default crisis, is suffering from hyperinflation of over 4000%.

The credibility of domestic currency has fallen sharply. According to CNN, professor Steve Hanke, an economist at Johns Hopkins University, estimated that the price of Venezuela surged 4115% from a year ago.
