US will dissolve like USSR did.

EUSSR will dissolve, not US.

US has a common identity, unlike EU.

And that only affects electronic/chip market not the global supply chain. You are focusing too much on chips and a handful of products.

A "handful" of products? Do you still live in 1985?

Today everything depends on microchips. More so in the future due to AI.

Your food, medical services, phone/internet, school/university, you name it...

The economy will grind to a halt if Taiwan/TSMC goes down.

RTX 5090 might cost a whole BTC in that case.

You really underestimate the fact that advanced/1st world economies (like US/EU) are very dependant on digital technology to maintain their GDP/standard of living...

Although I have to add I don't understand why you are always so worried about dedollarisation. Do you own Federal Reserve? LOL

Most Americans are like that, they will defend the dollar to death and it's understandable.

Imagine having the privilege of forcing your own shitcoin into the global financial system (SWIFT, oil trade)... would you relinquish that privilege?

Would you enjoy seeing your 401k turning into... dust?

Trust me, if I had a time machine and went back 1500+ years ago, Roman citizens would behave the same way Americans behave today.

Nobody wants to relinquish their privilege, that's how human nature works.

What baffles me is that they're Bitcoiners on this forum... it takes a HUGE level of cognitive dissonance to not admit BTC is superior to USD as a global reserve currency.

But then again, hypocrisy is human nature too.

I find it rather hilarious that people wish to replace the US$ without having a replacement. Sounds like BRICS, They face the dilemma that the trading partner wishes to be paid in US$ rather than real, or the next real.

The replacement already exists since 2009 and it's called BTC.

BRICs will use BTC for trade, not their national currencies.

Trump knows it, that's why he wants to build a BTC-based sovereign wealth fund while he has time and USD isn't hyperinflated (yet). Maybe he's playing 4D chess, we'll see.

I understand your life as an American will be disrupted when the USD goes down in 2027-2030, but don't forget you're also a Bitcoiner.

USD is temporary, just like every other global reserve currency (educate yourself on history, it doesn't hurt):
