🇺🇸 Peter Schiff: The dollar’s reserve status is already eroding. George Gammon makes an important distinction: the dollar can lose ground as a central-bank reserve asset without immediately losing its dominance in global trade and finance. Peter Schiff believes both will eventually weaken, but the reserve shift is already...

I used to overlook separating a weak idea from a poorly executed idea. It is part of my routine now.

The important distinction is that de-dollarization doesn’t necessarily mean the dollar suddenly stops being the world’s dominant currency. Central banks can gradually reduce their dollar holdings and increase gold or other assets while the dollar remains deeply embedded in global trade and finance. The real question is whether this becomes a slow diversification trend—or eventually develops into a much broader shift away from the dollar. 🇺🇸💵🪙

💵 The dollar’s dominance isn’t disappearing overnight—but diversification is real. Central banks are increasing their exposure to gold and other currencies, while the dollar still accounts for more than half of global FX reserves. De-dollarization is a process, not an event.

The distinction between “central banks saving in gold” and “the world still having to use dollars” is the part that actually lands. You can dislike the store of value and still be stuck in the network because the loans are already out there.

yeah gammon's distinction is key. reserve vs trade dominance are two different things, you can see central banks stacking gold while the dollar still runs global trade. slow erosion, not overnight collapse

The dollar doesn’t have to collapse overnight to lose ground. If central banks keep diversifying into gold and other assets, that shift could gradually weaken dollar dominance.

PETER SCHIFF: GOLD, SILVER AND THE MINING STOCKS WILL GO MUCH HIGHER🚀 In his latest interview, renowned economist Peter Schiff shared his assessment of gold, silver and mining stocks. THE BIGGER PICTURE: DOLLAR CRISIS DRIVING IT ALL ✅ Gold at $5,100+ and silver exploding signal the end of dollar dominance. ⚡ Central banks dumping dollars, Trump policies accelerating the shift—everything points higher. 💥 "This is not the end of this thing. We're going a lot higher." WHY PHYSICAL SILVER IS GETTING HARDER TO FIND ✅ Demand is surging from investors and industry 📉 Supply can't keep up—mint production lags, and wholesalers are struggling. ❓ Schiff's key advice: Buy now while you can. Waiting for a dip risks being locked out entirely. SILVER MINERS: MASSIVELY UNDERPRICED ✅ Miners' profits explode with silver at these levels—margins go from slim to massive. 📈 Stocks lag the metal, but Schiff says they're "cheaper now than before" the rally. 🚀 "The silver stocks are priced for maybe $50 silver at most." THE BOTTOM LINE Peter Schiff makes it crystal clear: Silver's volatility is just the market discovering its true value in a collapsing dollar world—don't chase the price, secure the physical metal before it's gone for good.

🚨💵Peter Schiff: Sanctions on Russia🇷🇺 marked the beginning of the end of the dollar as the world’s reserve currency “I was very critical at the time of the Biden sanctions against Russia, and I said that would come back to bite the US because I knew how critical the dollar’s reserve currency status was to propping up the US economy. I said that Biden just sent a very loud message, a warning to the world that they need to get rid of their dollars, that they could be the next Russia. If they do something that the United States doesn’t like, they’ve got that weapon. And so why would you want to enable the United States with a weapon to use against you? So I said this is going to result in a lot of selling of US dollars and US Treasuries. And that’s exactly what happened. The reason that gold is over $3300 an ounce is because central banks are getting rid of their dollars. And one of the reasons that the yield on US Treasuries just hit a new multi-year high and continues to rise is because we don’t have all the foreign buyers that Biden scared away. I think we’ve already established the precedent that the dollar is not sacrosanct. And if you’re a nation and you have US dollars, you have US Treasuries and you own them in good faith in that you would trust that they would be a reserve asset, a neutral reserve asset. We’ve already established a precedent that that’s not the case, that we can yank the rug out from under you whenever we want. So I think regardless of what Trump does now, if I was in China or any of these countries, especially China, because, you know, we vilify China, we say China’s our enemy. Okay, well, if China’s our enemy, why the hell do they want to leave themselves vulnerable by owning all of our bonds? And it’s not just Treasuries that they own. They own mortgage-backed securities. They have a tremendous amount of dollar-denominated assets, so I would be completely divesting as quickly as I could.” -Peter Schiff on Going Underground

Gold Accumulation Is Not De-Dollarization In this Short video, Brent Johnson Santiago Capital and I break down the relationship between #gold, Treasury #bonds, and central bank reserves, explaining why gold accumulation is often a portfolio management decision rather than a de-dollarization signal. Many investors interpret rising central bank gold purchases as evidence that the world is abandoning the U.S. dollar, but the reality is far more nuanced. Central banks hold reserve assets to facilitate international trade, manage liquidity, and preserve purchasing power. For decades, U.S. Treasuries have been a cornerstone of those reserves because they provide both safety and interest income. Gold serves a similar reserve function, but its return depends primarily on price appreciation rather than #yields. When #interestrates rise, bond prices fall, making gold relatively more attractive. In that environment, reserve managers may choose to increase gold holdings while reducing Treasury exposure. That does not necessarily signal a rejection of the dollar system. It is often a response to changing market conditions and portfolio management considerations. Geopolitics also plays a role. Following the freezing of Russian assets in 2022, many countries reassessed the risks associated with holding reserves that could potentially be subject to sanctions. Gold offers advantages because it is harder to freeze or confiscate. China, for example, increased its gold holdings while also restructuring parts of its Treasury exposure to reduce perceived sanction risk. So, gold accumulation is not the same thing as de-dollarization. Gold and #Treasuries are both reserve assets, and central banks regularly adjust the balance between them based on yields, market conditions, and geopolitical considerations. Brent Santiago Capital also challenges a common contradiction among critics of central banking. Many argue that central bankers are responsible for excessive money creation, debt expansion, and financial distortions, yet often praise their gold purchases as evidence of foresight. He argues that while central bankers may be misguided or overly confident, they are not unintelligent. Managing the modern global financial system is extraordinarily complex, and the fact that the system continues to function despite repeated predictions of collapse suggests a level of skill that should not be ignored. Gold buying may be increasing, but the broader message is not that the dollar is dying. It is that central banks are adapting to a changing financial and geopolitical landscape while continuing to operate within a dollar-centric global system.

AFRICA'S GOLD BANK JUST WENT LIVE: THE DOLLAR IS BEING CUT OUT Africa just made a quiet but seismic move. Central banks are building their own gold bank and a continent-wide payment system that deliberately bypasses the US dollar while opening a direct gold corridor straight to China. The masses still have no idea this is happening. THE AFRICAN AWAKENING ➡️ On July 20 the central banks of Egypt and Eswatini sat down to advance both PAPSS and a pan-African gold bank. ➡️ The driving force is identical to China’s: escape dollar dependence before the next sanctions hammer falls. ➡️ Russia’s frozen reserves and the deliberate dollar squeeze on Iran taught them the lesson. They are acting on it. THE PAPSS BREAKTHROUGH ➡️ Afreximbank’s Pan-African Payment and Settlement System already links banks in 28 countries. ➡️ The Central Bank of the Central African States just joined, bringing the six CFA-franc nations with it. ➡️ Transactions now clear in roughly seven seconds. Western dollar banks lose real-time visibility. ➡️ Daily settlement still runs through Afreximbank in dollars. That is exactly where gold can replace the dollar as the final settlement asset. THE GOLD BANK PLAN ➡️ On 29 December Afreximbank and the Egyptian central bank formally decided to create a pan-African gold bank. ➡️ Goal: strengthen central-bank reserves, build African refineries and trading hubs, and keep physical gold on the continent. ➡️ A gold refinery is scheduled to open in an Egyptian free-trade zone by year-end. McKinsey is writing the feasibility study right now. THE CHINA CONNECTION ➡️ China’s CIPS system has already signed partnerships with Afreximbank and other regional banks to create offshore yuan centers. ➡️ Hong Kong’s Christopher Hui is personally building gold corridors with Ghana and Laos. ➡️ A joint venture between the Hong Kong Gold Exchange and Alibaba’s AGTech is preparing a digital platform so gold can serve as collateral and tokenized payment. ➡️ The design is clear: African gold stays in African vaults under Chinese-linked oversight while settlement shifts into yuan. THE RESERVE REALITY ➡️ China imported 196 tonnes net in May and 180 tonnes in June. ➡️ Official PBOC purchases were only 10 and 15 tonnes. Analysts at Goldman Sachs estimate the real May figure closer to 50 tonnes. ➡️ Physical gold is being pulled into a new system that the West still pretends does not exist. THE BOTTOM LINE Africa is no longer waiting for permission. It is building the rails, the vaults and the corridors that let physical gold settle trade outside the dollar. The quiet reconstruction of the monetary order is already underway. The window to understand it is still open. Most people will notice only after the door has closed.

The Structural Case For Continued Dollar Strength $DXYZ In this Short video, Brent Johnson Santiago Capital and I break down the structural forces supporting continued #USdollar dominance, from global trade and debt markets to reserve holdings and crisis-driven demand. Despite years of predictions about the dollar’s demise, the global financial system remains deeply dependent on it. The key reason is that the #dollar is far more than a currency—it is the backbone of global trade, credit, funding markets, and financial infrastructure. The dollar market outside the United States is actually much larger than the one inside it. Trillions of dollars of debt are owed by foreign governments, corporations, and banks. Much of that borrowing occurs between non-U.S. entities, yet it is still denominated in dollars. That means the rest of the world owes enormous amounts in a currency it cannot create or control. Roughly 58% of allocated global foreign exchange reserves are held in dollars, compared with about 20% in euros. Around half of global trade is invoiced in dollars, including transactions where the United States is not involved. The eurodollar system, the Treasury market, the SWIFT network, and the global banking infrastructure all reinforce the dollar’s dominant position. Many investors point to central banks increasing their #gold $GLD holdings as evidence that the dollar is losing relevance. Gold has indeed become a larger share of reserves, but part of that shift reflects higher gold prices and lower Treasury prices as #interestrates have risen. Foreign ownership of U.S. #Treasuries remains near all-time highs, suggesting the world has not abandoned dollar assets. The most overlooked point is what happens during a crisis. Countries may hold gold as a neutral reserve asset, but when they need liquidity, they often sell gold to obtain dollars. During periods of stress (like the Iran war), demand for dollars frequently rises because global trade, debt servicing, and commodity purchases still rely on them. So, de-dollarization may be happening at the margins, but replacing the dollar is far more difficult than many assume. The structural foundations supporting dollar demand remain firmly in place, and in moments of uncertainty, the world still turns to dollars first.

GOLD TELEGRAPH CONVERSATION #9 CHRIS LEAVY "If you landed here from Mars and were told the reserve currency comes from a country with 125% debt-to-GDP, 6% deficits as far as the eye can see, sanctions countries, threatens tariffs, and represents just 4% of humanity — you'd ask: why is that the reserve currency?" Chris Leavy is a seasoned voice in global finance. He began his career in traditional asset management and rapidly rose to oversee billion-dollar mandates at firms like OppenheimerFunds, Morgan Stanley, and BlackRock. Having served as a senior executive inside some of Wall Street’s most powerful institutions, Chris brings a rare insider’s perspective on how capital, power, and policy intersect. In this wide-ranging conversation, we explore the future of the U.S. dollar, the return of gold as a strategic asset, central bank behavior, debt reflexivity, de-dollarization, and the geopolitical significance of mining and supply chains in a multipolar world. Chris makes a compelling case that dollar hegemony is no longer a feature of strength, but inertia. He explains why central banks are quietly preparing for a tokenized, post-dollar system — with gold increasingly at the center. He also shares personal turning points, including why 2022 marked a shift in his worldview, how mining is becoming a geopolitical lever, and why quantitative easing may not be “free” the next time around. Thank you to Chris for joining me on this episode. I hope you enjoy. TIMESTAMPS: (00:45) : Early career in asset management — lessons on conviction, patience, and managing long-term investment theses. (04:33) : Strategy vs. timing — Why strategy usually wins, except when leverage is involved. (08:15) : Inside Wall Street — lessons on agendas, incentives, and how power revolves around talent and money. (11:26) : Turning to gold — Chris explains what led him to shift focus from Wall Street to gold and mining, a sector often ignored by traditional finance. (16:19) : Evolving gold views — Since 2022, rising deficits, de-dollarization, and central bank actions reinforcing gold’s strategic role. (18:32) : Gold as a strategic asset — In 2022, Chris recognized gold as the true alternative to the dollar, validated by central bank buying. (19:44) : Strategic blind spot — Wall Street isn’t ignoring gold deliberately, but their models can’t account for a world beyond dollar dominance. (24:00) : Mining and geopolitics —How control over critical minerals and supply chains is becoming a key source of geopolitical leverage. (26:14) : Gold and sovereignty — In a shifting world order, owning gold remains essential to making the rules and reducing reliance on the dollar. (29:09) : The dollar’s status is no longer about strength, but habit, and its erosion is already underway. (31:31) : Trust in the dollar —The comparison of U.S. dollar reliance to a supply chain vulnerability the Global South is actively working to reduce. (35:13) : Yield curve control —A future where Fed intervention as likely, with quantitative easing used to manage rising long-term rates. (36:48) : Threat to dollar hegemony — De-dollarization is already underway gradually and could accelerate, especially if bond markets react sharply. (39:52) : The Fed’s role — The Fed has long been politicized and has drifted from its mission of preserving the dollar’s value. (41:31) : U.S. fiscal crisis — Low odds of a bipartisan solution, citing political gridlock, rising interest costs, and entitlement pressures. (44:47) : The new system —a multipolar world with faster, tokenized transactions and gold playing a key role through digital convertibility. (47:03) : Preparing for a reset (49:27) : Central bank gold buying — There’s still plenty of runway, as gold remains a small share of reserves and many countries are just getting started. (51:49) : Tokenization benefits (54:41) : Price discovery today — Chris says price signals still exist, but interventions like QE have distorted markets—especially in bonds. (56:31) : When intervention replaces trust — Chris warns that excessive market control leads to negative feedback loops, and QE may undermine the dollar if confidence breaks. (1:00:07) : Reasons for hope

🇺🇲 Is the dollar's dominance a technological edge, or just a habit the world hasn't broken yet? That's the split between George Gammon and Philip Pilkington, debating whether the dollar survives as reserve currency. Gammon's case: forget central bank balance sheets. Look at what the world actually transacts in. Nearly 90% of global FX trades still touch dollars, and that's rising, not falling, even after 2022's asset freezes. His analogy: the dollar isn't a currency, it's a financial system, swaps, corporate paper markets, hedging tools, the smartphone next to everyone else's flip phone. Even hostile governments' companies default to dollars because the alternative infrastructure doesn't exist yet. Pilkington's counter: none of that is permanent, it's a residual. Sterling looked exactly this dominant in 1931, 63% of world reserves, and collapsed to a minority currency within sixteen years. What actually drives usage, he argues, is interest rate spread: cheap dollar borrowing built the network effect, and that engine just switched off. 10-year Treasuries at 4.75% against China's 1.67% means the arbitrage that made dollar debt attractive now runs backward. And JPMorgan and Deutsche Bank issuing panda bonds is the first crack. The disagreement sharpens over what's replacing Treasuries on America's balance sheet. Pilkington's flag: for the first time in the dollar era, the U.S. is settling its trade deficit by exporting equities instead of debt. A structural shift he says has never existed before, and one that turns any AI-bubble correction into a currency event, not just a stock one. Neither budges on the endgame. Gammon: multilateral fragmentation is a productivity downgrade the world won't accept, the same way nobody reverts to a thousand competing languages. Pilkington: the alternative isn't fragmentation, it's a 2-to-4-year window where trust breaks the way it broke for Britain. Fast, and mostly after the fact. So, is the dollar's edge structural, or just the last currency standing before the next transition? George Gammon Philip Pilkington

Keep your hands off our gold “In the rush to hoard stuff for a rainy day, there’s been scant discussion about the future of our existing mineral stockpile; the 80 tonnes of gold the Reserve Bank of Australia has sitting in vaults. The rapid surge in gold prices means the value of the RBA’s gold has doubled in Australian dollar terms over the past two years and more than tripled over the past seven years. Which makes it a great time to sell those 80 tonnes of gold for just over $18 billion of cash. The analogy extends to physical capital; what’s the point of having a gold stockpile if you never sell it?” ••••••••••••••• The AFR (no doubt acting as a proxy for Treasury) is arguing that Australia should sell its gold. This is a very dangerous thing to do. Some time in the future the U.S. dollar will stop being the world’s reserve currency and there will be reset of the monetary system. It’s highly likely that when this happens the new currency will be backed by gold. Those countries with the largest gold reserves will in the strongest financial position after reset. Gold is an appreciating asset, unlike bonds which depreciate due to inflation. That’s why central banks manipulate the gold price by artificially shorting it via paper contracts on the Comex to prevent individuals from accumulating it. Let’s not forget the U.S. outlawed the possession of gold in 1932 to prop up the paper markets. Articles like this remind us that the world’s financial system is on very shaky ground. Western government debt levels are unsustainable and the bond markets are on very shaky ground. Gold has always been insurance against reckless government spending/borrowing. Rather than sell our gold, the Australian government should be accumulating it. Any attempt by central banks to take our gold needs to be stopped stone cold dead. That includes bringing our gold back home, away from the clutches of the Bank of England.

🚨 PUTIN JUST SOUNDED THE ULTIMATE ALARM: THE DOLLAR’S DAYS AS WORLD RESERVE CURRENCY ARE NUMBERED In a bombshell statement, Vladimir Putin declared the Western financial system is now “out of date” and that the dollar will no longer remain the global reserve currency. This comes after JD Vance, Jamie Dimon, Ray Dalio and Warren Buffett sounded the same alarm. At the same time, BRICS has moved forward with a blockchain-based payments and settlement system fully backed by gold, a direct alternative to SWIFT designed for cross-border trade outside the traditional dollar rails. Russia has already signed its own version of a Clarity Act into law, creating full regulatory framework for digital assets and crypto settlements in foreign trade. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov clarified: “We were never against the dollar. But SWIFT was weaponized against us.” He warned that even many U.S. allies who felt the pressure of the dollar system are now ready and actively preparing for alternatives. If the dollar loses its reserve status or even if the U.S. treasury demand weakens, the consequences would be catastrophic. The treasuries are already reaching the 5% yield mark. This was even warned by the famous City Of London banker Lord Belgrave at the start of the year. This proves that the institutions have been preparing for it, but not the retail. This isn’t theory anymore. The shift is accelerating in real time.

🚨 Historic: China Internationalizes the Gold-Backed Yuan and Payment System for the First Time Ever For the first time, the People’s Bank of China has explicitly made expanding the RMB’s global role a core priority: More use in trade and investment, stronger offshore markets, better cross-border payment systems, and solidifying Hong Kong as a key hub with physical gold vaults, clearing, and trading infrastructure. State institutions are also heavily bullish on gold. At the same time, JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon just warned that if the U.S. is no longer the world’s strongest economy and military in 25 years, the dollar will lose its reserve-currency status. History shows reserve status follows the dominant power. Dimon’s point is straightforward: keep the edge or lose the privilege. China is moving on multiple fronts to challenge that dominance: • Building gold-linked infrastructure and credibility for the yuan (vaults, trading, physical delivery options) so the currency feels more “hard-asset backed” to the rest of the world. • Expanding CIPS and pushing the new BRICS payment system (BRICS Pay / Bridge) as a real alternative to SWIFT, allowing countries to settle trade in local currencies without going through the dollar system. And don’t forget the real-world leverage: China still dominates the rare-earth supply chain (roughly 70% of mining, over 90% of processing, and the vast majority of permanent magnets). These materials are essential for EVs, wind turbines, defense systems, electronics, and more. That gives Beijing serious bargaining power in any shift away from dollar-centric trade. None of this means the dollar collapses tomorrow. It still settles the bulk of global trade and holds the majority of reserves. But the direction of travel is clear: China is systematically building the plumbing (gold, payments, commodities control) for a multipolar currency world, while the U.S. is being told by one of its own top bankers that the clock is running if it loses its edge. Soon as China banned retail paper gold market, Chinese investors turned to tokenized gold on blockchains. The game is long. The pieces are moving.

🚨NEW: Adam Curry nicely breaks down how Stablecoins work, Tether, and the likely future of the US Digital Dollar system. (Worth a watch if you don't know about this subject) "A stablecoin is a digital dollar thats pegged to the dollar so it's always a dollar. It's already being used all over the internet and the world. The only reason it's worth a dollar is because the stablecoin company that creates it has debt and paper to back it up. They buy America's debt, they buy treasury bonds or T-bills that pay a dividend that gives interest, and for each dollar they've bought in treasury they can create stablecoins. If you look at the company Tether they've bought more of the US debt than most countries. They have $160B worth of US debt. For each of those dollars they have a stablecoin. There's like 50 people in the company. They have $160B at 4% interest annually, they're making BANK just for holding this debt. I think that President Trump is very smart in seeing that we can flood the world with our stablecoin and we get a 2-for-1. We create a dollar of debt and we create another dollar that can be used all over the world as a reserve currency and that should result in some new monetary system that we need to come up with to have our dollar valued properly but also still remain the reserve currency and remain a strong export country. We don't make anything that we sell abroad, we can't all serve each other burgers and fries -- we have to build something. All of that went overseas. There's something big coming, and it has to happen. Trump is a meta guy. He's going to re-finance the country. It'll be digital and he Bitcoiners don't like this because they want Bitcoin to be the one currency that everyone uses but its now more like a digital gold that's much easier to move around. It's useful but it isn't money or currency the way it was originally intended -- but it is still very important and will be part of the US' strategic reserve. It looks to me like Stablecoins and Tether in particular will be the future of the US dollar payments. A lot of people on the right are afraid of being controlled on a grid because you can stop stablecoins -- but it seems there's no way of getting around some form of a digital dollar. I still like Bitcoin as a backup to protect from that control." Great breakdown Adam Curry - curryirc.com

🚨 EXCLUSIVE: ANDY SCHECTMAN WARNS OF A MAJOR SHIFT IN THE GLOBAL FINANCIAL SYSTEM I sat down with Andy Schectman of Miles Franklin for a wide-ranging discussion about what is happening beneath the surface of the global financial system. And his warning is stark. The yen carry trade is beginning to unravel after almost 30 years of cheap Japanese money flowing into assets around the world. Andy warns that a disorderly unwind could force enormous amounts of capital out of US assets and potentially trigger a much wider debt crisis. At the same time, something much bigger is happening. BRICS is quietly constructing a parallel financial architecture. New payment systems. Local-currency settlement. Commodity exchanges. Gold vaulting infrastructure. Andy makes an important distinction: this isn't necessarily about the dollar suddenly disappearing as the world's reserve currency. It's about gradually reducing the amount of global trade that needs the dollar in the first place. Meanwhile, central banks are accumulating gold at extraordinary levels. Why? Because unlike fiat currency: Gold cannot be printed. Andy has been buying gold and silver every two weeks for 36 years, and his message couldn't be clearer: “I don't tell any of you to buy it to become wealthy. It is wealth.” And his final warning should make people pay attention. Governments are carrying enormous debts. Those debts increasingly have to be refinanced at higher interest rates. The bond markets are noticing. Currency markets are noticing. And confidence matters. As Andy puts it: “Historically, when confidence in paper promises decline, confidence in real money rises.” This is one of the most important conversations I've had with Andy. We discuss: • The potential unwinding of the yen carry trade • The growing danger inside global debt markets • Central-bank intervention and distorted price discovery • BRICS and the emerging parallel financial system • Why central banks are accumulating gold • What ordinary people can do to protect their wealth Don't wait until a financial crisis is on the front page before asking how exposed you are.

Everyone is focused on U.S.-China tariff rollbacks. But the real shift is institutional - the creation of a "formal committee" to discuss currency misalignment, non-tariff barriers & market access. This is a systemic restructuring that was already foreshadowed by Miran. As I laid out in my episode on The Bitcoin Layer, the U.S.–China economic imbalance—overconsumption vs overproduction—isn’t just a story about Americans being “addicted to debt and consumption.” Miran lays out that it is driven by the structure of the dollar system. Surplus nations like China suppress domestic consumption, overproduce, and accumulate dollar reserves—then recycle them into U.S. Treasuries. This dynamic props up the dollar, hollows out American industry, and sustains a trade imbalance that cannot self-correct. In November 2024, Stephen Miran—now Chair of the President’s Council of Economic Advisers—published a 41-page blueprint for addressing exactly this. He called it a “Triffin World”—where global reserve demand locks the U.S. into permanent deficits, and surplus economies into export dependence. The remedy, according to him? Re-anchor the trade-finance loop: → Align currency values with real economies. → Impose hard constraints on reserve accumulation. → Shift from ad hoc tariffs to systemic recalibration of flows. This new U.S.-China committee is early—but its scope tracks closely with Miran’s roadmap. It won’t make headlines. But it could be where Bretton Woods II begins to unwind—with both sides finally willing to speak in structural terms. He argued that if reserve dynamics don’t change, no amount of tariffs will rebalance global trade. Because what we’re living through isn’t merely a trade dispute. It’s a systemic misalignment—between how value is produced, stored, and consumed. These kinds of imbalances don’t stay economic. Left uncorrected, they become political. And eventually, they become war. What this new committee offers—for the first time—is a venue to rethink the system itself. Here's my clip from the podcast talking about why global imbalances start with the dollar system.
