Circulation doesn’t matter. Let me give you adb example.
Let’s say my mom sells her house. The buyer takes out a loan from the bank. My mom gets $300,000 in cash to her bank account, the buyer loses 20% down payment so he’s down $60,000. The bank reserves 10% which is $24,000
Suddenly the economy just got a boost of $300,000 - $60,000 - $24,000 = $216,000
When my mom spends that money, it goes to the bank accounts of businesses so it just stays as numbers. Nobody needs to take any cash out, but everyone gets richer
