The informal market governs a large part of the lives of the citizens residing on the island, since it is from the oscillations of this exchange movement at street level that the increasingly exorbitant prices of products are established, especially for items of First need.

Choked by inflation, the rampant economic crisis and food shortages, Cubans follow in the footsteps of the three reference currencies in the informal market as a lifeline in their daily lives. However, it is known that not everyone has access to them.
