Is Donald Trump's blackmail toward the dollar a bad omen regarding his promise to create a strategic reserve of bitcoins?
In a new verbal escalation, Donald Trump, elected president of the United States, has shaken global markets. Indeed, he has threatened to impose 100% tariffs on the nations of the BRICS alliance. This statement comes in a tense economic context, where the dollar, a cornerstone of international trade, is increasingly being challenged by emerging powers. Such a challenge to the monetary status quo could well reshape the global geopolitical balance, but also lead to significant economic turbulence.
Global economic dynamics are evolving, and the hegemony of the US dollar seems to be wavering. Two influential members of the BRICS alliance, Russia and Iran, have just announced a major change: a complete abandonment of the dollar for their trade exchanges. While this decision reflects a desire for economic sovereignty in the face of external pressures, it could also pave the way for a profound upheaval of international financial balances.
