Thank you, this was fun. English is not my native language, but I think (and also checked) that the term in YouTube is "demonetization".

Cool quiz! For the DE question, you could add words like demise, deterioration or a bunch of other ones... Devolution doesn't fit in my view because you mentioned it should be linked to a country, and the first thing that came to my mind was the devolution in the UK, which is another meaning of the word I suppose
