On the short run – until total adoption – it’d cause a great amount of economical damage.
After some time it’d just deflate the value of currency tenfold first, but assumably it’d not stop there, since nobody would know what’s the cause of this, and there you’d have the infamous hyperinflation, basically meaning you’ve just destroyed everything at that point.
