Fortunately, that threat to the dollar is just a pro-Putin myth.

The USD’s status as the world’s safe haven has only been reinforced by this crisis. It has strengthened significantly against the EUR, GBP, and Chinese yuan for that matter, over the last month. Crypto has done no better.

No, the article you’re agreeing with is completely stale and has been proven wrong by the actual events of the last 3 weeks. Not sure why you guys want to cling to these now debunked pessimistic predictions. Or some outsized fear that China and Russia present some great threat to our position in the world. It’s Russia’s that’s collapsed, with no where to turn but China. Not an enviable position to be in.

And China’s wondering what they were thinking backing that horse, no doubt. This great axis of autocracy has not gone as well as Trumpistan had hoped. Nothing about the attempt to conquer Ukraine has.
