$100 bills are the most common bill in circulation, even ahead of $1 bills.
One reason for this is $100 bills have a longer lifespan than smaller denominations, due to people using $100 bills less often for transactions. Some businesses may also decline $100 bills as payment.
Based on 2018 estimates from the Federal Reserve, a $100 bill has a lifespan of over 20 years, which is significantly higher than $1 bills (7 years) and $5 bills (5 years).

Moore’s Law is not a law of nature, but an observation of a long-term trend in how technology is changing: the number of transistors on computer chips doubles approximately every two years

Bryan Caplan on the justice of Bukele:
Since he [Bukele] assumed power in 2019, El Salvador has gone from a murder rate of 36 per 100,000 to 2.4 per 100,000. Granted, when Bukele took office, the Salvadoran murder rate was already in steep decline. Still, going from the most murderous country in the world in 2015 to the second-least-murderous country in the Americas in 2023 is an absolute miracle.
A absolute miracle achieved by indefinitely jailing over 70,000 on mere suspicion.
The Justice of Bukele?
Yes, it's complicated!
