Realistic synthesis
The people, events, figures, and contract terms are a synthetic premise. They are not statements of real cases or of current law. The source documents are the roots of the background and the norms and do not establish the premises of the scenario.
The question to decide
The reserves of the halted local currency cover only 70% of the claims. For residents it is next week's living expenses; for shops it is money to pay wages. Return the same ratio to everyone, or pay small living costs and merchant settlements first? With additional funding not yet confirmed, who gets paid first and who bears the shortfall?
