“There is no justification whatever for the widespread belief that variations in the quantity of money must lead to inversely proportionate variations in the objective exchange-value of money, so that, for example, a doubling of the quantity of money must lead to a halving of the purchasing power of money.”

— The Theory of Money and Credit (LvMI) by Ludwig von Mises

Up to this point I was understanding what Mises was explaining. But this quote seems to say that an increase in the quantity of money does NOT decrease purchasing power. If I’m understanding this correctly this would be completely contradictory to what I’ve come to understand through my dillegent research.
