No, the existence of the eurodollar guarantees other currencies will fail before the USD unless there is a world war or countries decide to default on their debt (and even defaults are deflationary and would lead to higher USD value)

Everyone in this thread seems to be confused. It is never a question of a fiat failing, and the world moving to a different fiat. Precious metals have always been the actual money, with brief interruptions of fiat before that particular fiat fails.

When the dollar crisis begins, only precious metals are money, in particular gold.

>> No.18266425

>>18266055
countries hold debt between each other, devalueing a currency makes that nominal debt essentially usless to other countries since the currency its payed in is worth nowhere near the value of the debt. Now all the debt that that is denominated in that currency loses value. The more of that useless debt the country holds the more value their own currency loses since they depend entirely on THEIR debts with other countries being counterbalanced with the now useless debt that are on their balance sheet.

This is only a significant problem when the country holds a large portion of debt of another country obviously, and this is exactly the case with the US. China will be the worst off in this case since they are the biggest holders of US debts

I’d be interested to hear someone’s take on the actual mechanisms of a transition away from the US dollar. Usually what we hear are sweeping generalizations like “the US dollar will die”, etc. How in a practical sense could the world move away from the dollar and toward something else like gold or silver? I’m also of the belief that cryptos are not a viable replacement for the dollar because they honestly have no intrinsic value other than being a unique string of characters that are limited in quantity. Those properties are no sufficient to be used as a currency IMO

nah. once people lose faith in the DOLLAR, it'll be the end of FIAT currencies.
the rest have nothing stopping them from doing what the FED is doing right now either.

bitcoin was created exactly for these times. welcome your new reserve currency. though there's a chance gold will take the primary role first, because right now there are just a lot of boomers that can understand basic economy but can't understand bitcoin. but in 30 years time it'll all about that sweet BTC.
and if governments ban gold again, the digital takeover will happen overnight.

national currencies couldn't hold up against the dollar. MAYBE denmark or the netherlands could pull it off, or france/germany (but they have control over the EUR anyways, wouldn't benefit them), but most countries would just de facto switch to more established currencies the moment the global depression hits.

there shouldn't be debt sharing, each country is fiscally independent but thats also the problem. The euro made no sense from the start, you cant just share a common currency and let each country be fiscally independent. They should have change things when Greece went down, it was literally the perfect time to either opt out of the euro or force a fiscal union

I agree that the Euro made no sense in the start. Each country should abandon the Euro and start their own central banks so that they can fund themselves during times of crisis. But we're in the situation where southern europe doesn't have the capability because they are under the ECB and the only way to resolve the current crisis is through debt sharing. The US does it throughout its states and the eurozone needs to do it as well.

According to my calculations all other currencies will ramp up their hyperinflation before the dollar inflation. Get into dollars or pms first then get to assets from there.

?
they have their own central banks, thats what I meant the ECB has no control over the countries independent central banks and they've been using their own central banks for deficit spending thinking the other EU countries will just foot the bill when debts accumulate, the problem now is that their own central banks are so burdened with bad debt and have so much on their own balance sheet that it is impossible to borrow any more, they have to borrow from outside and no one is lending because the deficit has gone out of control in these countries, This could have been avoided if the EU had a fiscal union and stopped the south european countries from borrowing so much, but they couldn't and now its too late.

>> No.18269169

>>18269081
You are mistaken. Their central banks have been taking over in function by the ECB. They need to be able to get in debt during times like these and they can’t because they’re central banks are gimped and they don’t have their own currency.
