Abstract
⺠Fiat money has strictly positive value in the unique trembling hand equilibrium. ⺠Fiat money is essentially equivalent to large securitized pools of debt. ⺠It is a low risk asset as not only a single but all debtors demand money. ⺠Money can implement the debt-pool allocation even if pooling contracts are infeasible.
