Exactly. It's also interesting that this "technique" of blaming speculators for hyperinflation is not new:

en.wikipedia.org

Although reparations accounted for about one third of the German deficit from 1920 to 1923,[4] the government found reparations a convenient scapegoat. Other scapegoats included bankers and speculators (particularly foreign), both of which groups had, in fact, exacerbated the hyperinflation through the normal course of their profit-seeking.
