the real threat to the US dollar doesn't come from the new BRICS currencies, but from digital dollar-backed stablecoins and other tokenized cryptocurrencies. Crypto "dollars" won't collapse the global financial system, but they could disrupt the cozy greenback-based settlement system. A separate threat comes from Hong Kong-based cryptocurrency companies and exchanges with direct ties to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), which has long sought to overthrow the US dollar.

#debt weakening of the dollar's dominance in global trade and finance will lead to an increase in the cost of funding the extensive US debt.
