Here I cover the devaluation of the Argentine peso which occurred recently on 14 August. You may be surprised to know that there is a long-standing black market price for the peso, and you can actually back into this using the Bitcoin price (in Argentine pesos), as Bitcoin is one of the most liquid, free, and globally traded assets around the world.
