Hello
Given that you want to make British poubds into just papers as soon as possible, and you have power to do that, how do you do that?
This is a serious question. And I am in hurry. No joke or troll please, really.
And if it is possible, is that possible in Saturday?
It seems that Forex markets are closed all in the world at this moments.
But I am in hurry.
Thank you for your support.

Sorry, typo
British panties → British pounds (British currency)

With a pair of scissors?

But how?
The point and purpose here is to extremely lower the value of Great british pounds.
Like 1$ = 100000000000000 pounds
I think you are misunderstanding something.

Oh I see. All you have to do is gather up a few trillion pounds to yourself, and then you can set the price.

Humm, I see. Thanks! May I ask few more?
First of all, when I own 5 trillion pounds, the amount of pound sterling in circulation in England will decrease considerably. How will England deal with the situation?
Second, I think that if I just own the pound instead of selling it, the value of the pound in the market will be almost the same as before, is that correct?
Finally, suppose I sell the pound at a tenth of its previous price. Suppose I want to sell 5 trillion pounds in one go. How do you think the market will react?

PS: About the last question. I know very little about buying and selling in the market, but it's the reaction of the market when I disclose an offer to the market to sell at this price, not after selling, meaning I still own the pound.

They will probably arrest you and throw you in a dungeon in the Tower of London and make you eat rats and spiders. Or they could just simply behead you, like two of King Henry VIII's wives. The British are a bit overly harsh in their punishments sometimes.

No, I think the value of the pound would increase dramatically because you would be keeping pounds out of circulation, which would create a scarcity. Scarcity usually drives up prices, if I recall my college Economics 101 class lectures correctly.

>"Finally, suppose I sell the pound at a tenth of its previous price. Suppose I want to sell 5 trillion pounds in one go. How do you think the market will react?"

I think that the market would be really happy to purchase your pounds at a 90% discounted rate. You would be very popular. They might love you so much that they make you a Knight of the British Empire - Sir Panties.
