A long and rich article which Dr Dejahang posted here yesterday. ( qoto.org/@drdej555/10323957595 )I read thru and he covers a wide variety of implications. A good read, requires focus. :thumbsup_hmn_h2:

@design_RG At least it has some imperical backing, I guess, unlike USD...

@realcaseyrollins The hegemony of the US Dollar as the major Reserve currency is a tremendous advantage for the country.

And mr. T complains about trade unfairness? 😛

We need more widely accepted reserve currencies, of the real kind, and not under the control of a sinister corporation, like FB, which is under share votes controlled by one single man.

@design_RG Well I mean anybody can move cash, so theoretically anyone, even the Chinese, can control USD.

I'm pretty sure there are international banks that deal in USD too, so even then the US government has only a certain level of control over its own currency.
