Because of the floor, currency trading has dried up – who would want to sell foreign currencies for grossly overpriced Belarusian rubles? A friend of one of my students has a web site designed to overcome rigidities in this market, a sort of Craigslist for currency. People specify amounts they are willing to buy or sell, agree to trade at some price and arrange a meeting place. When they meet, the trade nominally occurs at the official price floor, making the transaction nominally legal; but the person selling rubles makes extra payments to the buyer to lower the price sufficiently so that the trade actually takes place at the equilibrium price. This is one more way in which technology helps markets circumvent imperfections and rigidities.
