"The digital yuan is the largest threat to the west that we've faced in the last 30-40 years." Damn I don't remember the last 30-40 years being THAT chill
@Tony Montana The "dominance" of the dollar is not related to my wellbeing as an American. I'm working class. We used to have a very strong manufacturing sector where I grew up, but the dollar's status as the world trade currency arbitrarily makes American exports more expensive, killing American jobs and forcing my friends and family into hardship. "The west" to him doesn't mean America, it means the people who dominate the global financial system.
They said the same thing about the Euro supplanting the dollar 20 years ago. Also, no one outside of China is going to want a digital currency that is tracked and controlled by the Chinese Communist Party.
Yeah the bit at 2:17 was what made me realise just how US-centric this video's perspective is. It's a whole video of "what if we did something ridiculously overcomplicated instead of just catching up with the technology the rest of the world is already using?"
They have only one thingy to consider. That is whether it will have any impact in the rich elitists. They will drag their feet if it does. The slow implementation can be inferred as they finding ways to circumvent it for themselves. Don't think they care for the masses.
@@bnco No, the private banks hate this CBDC. Because it threatens their existence. You see, private banks are like the middle-man, they borrow from the central bank (FED) with cheap interest and lend it to other businesses with much higher interest rate. Inshort, CBDC would massively weaken the private banks and strengthen the Government. That is why China adopted the CBDC, to have more control.
@@Commievn well digital yuan will meet massive force from bank giant from the west. You know those shady banker that cause monetary crisis in 2008 😂they are still alive kicking and healthy with billions of money they cheated
Never will it be fee free. A CBDC will just be another way for governments to tax more and manipulate money like they've always done. It's nothing like de-centralized crypto at all.
12:49 China can hardly be more digital than it is already. The vast majority of transactions are already be done through Wechat Pay or Alipay (Chinese equivalent of Venmo or Apple Pay). There are loads of people who still rely on cash today, like unbanked citizen, and senior citizen that are not comfortable with smartphone technologies. The rest of the population is already fully digital. This won't have changed in 5 years.
Most people had electronic payment system, Alipay or Apple pay and what nots. In addition they can also carry cash though not in stash but minimal sum in case. It gives one a much wider choice.

Crypto mining is not "banned", main focus is to reduce electricity consumption because China has relatively cheap power plants but they run on coal, and Chine wants to reduce ecological impact on their population. Mining is still possible, just little less profitable.
@@JohnSmith-iw4qs as far as I know Chinese govt has banned govt/public companies and institutions from using crypto currencies, but private enteties are not affected, as far as I know. There is something about reducing electricity production from coal powerplants, but I forgot details.
@@brendonchen2550 there are several facts that need to be evaluated. 1. In last 40 years 700 MILLION Chinese were raised from utter poverty (less then $2/day). Standard of living is still getting higher, those "empty cities" are getting filled with population with larger and larger salaries and standards. It is normal that power consumptions is STILL on the RISE. Even in Europe, EU energy consumption will RISE 30% in next 20-50 years. Germans decided in 2011? to shutdown all nuclear powerplants but in stead had to fire up COAL powerplants! Nord Stream 2 and Turkish (should have been South) Stream gas pipelines are not build just because, without them Europe will be starved for energy in all forms. Reason USA wants to block EU from getting energy is in part to limit EU competitevness by reducing available energy sources. So if Europs needs stil grow, why not in China? 2. In 2013-2017 two huge gas pipelines Russia-China were agreed, one is worth $400bn for 30 years, gas from Vladivostok, and smaller one on western Russia-China border. In addition, Tajikistan and one ,ore country? signed contract for gas deliveries to China via future gas pipeline, and China is already negotiating with (very interested) Taliban for exploration and infrastructure deals (Pakistan is deal broker). If Taliban welcome China then large Iran-Afganistan-(Pakistan)-China is possible. China needed any kind of electricity in the past, first coal, now both natural gas (also for industry and individual private consumption), nuclear and wind/solar powerplants are the focus. 3. At least 50% of world installed solar panels/powerplants are installed in China and Chinese govt is HEAVILY subsidising EV's and EV producers. There are ~400? EV car producers in China, it is a biggest EV market in the world. Many Chinese buy EV as their FIRST car (another indicator of booming standard). 4. When you write "CO2 emmisions", do you count CO2 produced to build stuff for USA, EU and rest of the world as created by China or by other countries consumption? Is it fair to say China is the cilprit when it is driven by West/World consumerism? If there was no World market then CO2 created to satisfy it would never be produced...

To China, a digital currency that is under the control of its central bank plays very well to its centralised economy management ecosystem. The benefits are fast allocation of resources while the drawbacks include amplified impacts of mistakes in the allocation.
The government provides financial aids, asking the person to buy books and taking courses. But they use money to buy cigarettes, s*x toys, stuff... Currently, there is no way to prevent this. China's Digital Currency is the solution.
Mistake in allocation? Why do you think your country is so poor? Did you ever think it might be as good as China's if your country could've allocated a few trillion away from its military every year that maybe everybody on the US would be a lot better off? Xi Jinping enjoys more than 90% approval rating and it's easy to see why if you've ever been to that country. Just ask your athletes or Americans living in China what they think.

0:56 That's not that case at all. Cryptocurrencies use *cryptography* to securely *decentralize* transactions. CBDC's are just digital money controlled by *central* banks. That's literally the opposite of cryptocurrency. *Decentralization via cryptography* is the entire point of cryptocurrency.
@@waywardgeologist2520 Exactly. Crypto and CBDC are different in almost every technical and philosophical way. CBDC seems like a dream for government and regulators.
You can control crypto as well. You have to pay taxes for it and every transaction has to be reported to the IRS now. So either way they know what you are buying and the FBI is only getting better at confiscating your crypto…
Not exactly. Blockchains enable decentralization, it doesn't enforce it. There are plenty companies that use centralized blockchains. Based on that you can implement a CBDC as a cryptocurrency. That being said, all traded cryptocurrencies to date are exactly by definition what you are describing. But the idea of a cryptographically stored and validated ledger that facilitates the value of a single currency cannot be centralized is not true. The only difference between centralization and decentralization, is that a decentralized cryptocurrency uses the public network to validate transactions requiring complete transparency of the blockchains to the public domain, the centralized version is that only the private network does and because the validation is done in the private network, the public domain only requires a subset of the ledger.
And what's worst, that digital money isn't decentralized. Whoever controls it, can control your life. Can't buy and sell freely anymore. Worst if you are blocked access .
The problem is that the US dollar became this widely used initially because of the relative stability of it in the world wars, China (removing all the safety problems that arise because of using a Chinese currency) is probably not gonna be as stable in any worldwide emergency situation and are probably gonna suffer more in any emergency because their economy is so reliant on exports and trade.

Yes. This is a big reason. But also the mining in inner Mongolia was literally causing power outages in Beijing and they've been powering off crypto mining during the coldest winter months for years to reduce power grid load. It was inevitable China was going to shut off mining for good. If America reported the reality of China instead of propaganda, the mining ban wouldn't have been a surprise. The fact that China let mining continue past 2017 would've been more shocking.
Pollution is a great concern too. Crypo mining generally based on inner Mongolia and northern China (electricity is generally cheaper here) was wasting a large amount of energy and heavily polluting the environment. Besides I think the use of Bitcoin and stuff has never been legal in China (i might be wrong on this point)
China bans most forms of freedom. The CCP banned Google. BTC actually encourages green energy production. Battery technology is not advanced enough to make business sense to store and transport energy from rural regions into the urban centers where a bulk of energy demand is at. Because BTC operations can exist anywhere in the world miners can utilize power sources that are inaccessible at odd times. Miners incentivize utility companies to expand their renewable energy capacity long before battery technology is ready to make it viable to run the world 100% on clean energy. It is estimated that 50% or more of BTC mining energy is currently green. Don't believe the media FUD.
@@KASPA-KEY When did google start representing freedom. Google literally steals your data and sells it to advertisers or any highest bidder.

There are many fundamental flaws with having everything digital. Things like stolen money, no digital device, will central government track all payments? Too many questions. There is a reason why so many Germans use cash as well.

Digital yuan could not dethrone dollar, most of the people around the world don`t trust yuan because of the CCP, yuan digital currency will revolve only inside China because Chinese people have no choice but to swallow what their CCP govt. imposes. And besides, CCP govt. isn`t sustainable, it might collapse sooner or later, and do you think people outside China would take the risk of putting their money in unreliable CCP`s digital currency?
Answer: No. The regular Yuan is already not trusted due to manipulation from the government in everything from exchange rates, to the stock market, to the numbers they provide about their economy in general. An even less transparent currency would be even less accepted internationally. The reason the US Dollar has the position it does as the international currency is due to trust in the stability of the government and that assets are secure and trusted in the country. This is important to note because any currency that the Chinese Communist Party concocts will be entirely unable to fulfill the same purposes that are so vital to a currency to be accepted as the world's reserve and transactional currency.

And now they're printing 20+% of USD supply in merely a few months, debasing the reserve currency of the world which is essentially stealing wealth from the entire world's savings through currency debasement of the USD and inflation.
The biggest problem I can see is that most countries who aren't keen to accept each other's currency, assuming that happens, are willing to accept USD. For instance, if I went on holiday in Bali and then flew over to Thailand, I could not go to the markets with the Rupia and try and buy something at Baht prices. But I could take USD and bargain with it. Basic but that's basically how it works as far as I can tell. Criminals will take USD over anything else. Even Bitcoin.

So your wrong. 2. Middle East war has nothing to do with China, and if anything China is the currency manipulator - trying to get the upper hand on its trade. Wrong again. 3. Apple and Amazon are trillion companies because they are the most innovated and are great investments overall. No one buys into a company stock because of trade with China lmao. Wrong another time. 4. US got out of the crisis with its new push on QE and bailing out companies on the taxpayer, adding to the deficit. Plus it’s just apart of the business cycle. It was not due to Treasury notes being bought from China. American investment is what built China - which could have happened to any other country. China took the good out of capitalism and added there mix of authoritarianism. China steals everyone’s ideas and when Trump took office trying to fight the rouge regime, they didn’t like the taste of their own medicine and slapped tariffs back on us - like they didn’t already have them to begin with.

I don't know why people are scared, countries will not use the Yuan as their reserve currency (as they don't now) even if they digitalize. People use the USD as reserve because of these 3 reasons: stability, transparency, and strong economy. So if China made a digital Yuan it doesn't change any of those.

@@brendonchen2550 there are several facts that need to be evaluated.
1. In last 40 years 700 MILLION Chinese were raised from utter poverty (less then $2/day). Standard of living is still getting higher, those "empty cities" are getting filled with population with larger and larger salaries and standards. It is normal that power consumptions is STILL on the RISE. Even in Europe, EU energy consumption will RISE 30% in next 20-50 years. Germans decided in 2011? to shutdown all nuclear powerplants but in stead had to fire up COAL powerplants! Nord Stream 2 and Turkish (should have been South) Stream gas pipelines are not build just because, without them Europe will be starved for energy in all forms. Reason USA wants to block EU from getting energy is in part to limit EU competitevness by reducing available energy sources.
So if Europs needs stil grow, why not in China?
2. In 2013-2017 two huge gas pipelines Russia-China were agreed, one is worth $400bn for 30 years, gas from Vladivostok, and smaller one on western Russia-China border. In addition, Tajikistan and one ,ore country? signed contract for gas deliveries to China via future gas pipeline, and China is already negotiating with (very interested) Taliban for exploration and infrastructure deals (Pakistan is deal broker). If Taliban welcome China then large Iran-Afganistan-(Pakistan)-China is possible. China needed any kind of electricity in the past, first coal, now both natural gas (also for industry and individual private consumption), nuclear and wind/solar powerplants are the focus.
3. At least 50% of world installed solar panels/powerplants are installed in China and Chinese govt is HEAVILY subsidising EV's and EV producers. There are ~400? EV car producers in China, it is a biggest EV market in the world. Many Chinese buy EV as their FIRST car (another indicator of booming standard).
4. When you write "CO2 emmisions", do you count CO2 produced to build stuff for USA, EU and rest of the world as created by China or by other countries consumption? Is it fair to say China is the cilprit when it is driven by West/World consumerism? If there was no World market then CO2 created to satisfy it would never be produced...

Ok so explain
To China, a digital currency that is under the control of its central bank plays very well to its centralised economy management ecosystem. The benefits are fast allocation of resources while the drawbacks include amplified impacts of mistakes in the allocation.
Solid point; it's also the reason why they banned Bitcoin. They have no control over it.
The government provides financial aids, asking the person to buy books and taking courses. But they use money to buy cigarettes, s*x toys, stuff... Currently, there is no way to prevent this. China's Digital Currency is the solution.
but mistakes would be detected and corrected faster too.
Mistake in allocation? Why do you think your country is so poor? Did you ever think it might be as good as China's if your country could've allocated a few trillion away from its military every year that maybe everybody on the US would be a lot better off?

0:56 That's not that case at all. Cryptocurrencies use *cryptography* to securely *decentralize* transactions. CBDC's are just digital money controlled by *central* banks. That's literally the opposite of cryptocurrency. *Decentralization via cryptography* is the entire point of cryptocurrency.
And being centrally controlled means they can shut off an account at any time. CBDC are an ultimate tool for complete control.
@@waywardgeologist2520 Exactly. Crypto and CBDC are different in almost every technical and philosophical way. CBDC seems like a dream for government and regulators.
You can control crypto as well.
You have to pay taxes for it and every transaction has to be reported to the IRS now. So either way they know what you are buying and the FBI is only getting better at confiscating your crypto…
Not exactly. Blockchains enable decentralization, it doesn't enforce it. There are plenty companies that use centralized blockchains. Based on that you can implement a CBDC as a cryptocurrency. That being said, all traded cryptocurrencies to date are exactly by definition what you are describing. But the idea of a cryptographically stored and validated ledger that facilitates the value of a single currency cannot be centralized is not true. The only difference between centralization and decentralization, is that a decentralized cryptocurrency uses the public network to validate transactions requiring complete transparency of the blockchains to the public domain, the centralized version is that only the private network does and because the validation is done in the private network, the public domain only requires a subset of the ledger.

So this is why they've banned crypo mining?
Yes. This is a big reason. But also the mining in inner Mongolia was literally causing power outages in Beijing and they've been powering off crypto mining during the coldest winter months for years to reduce power grid load. It was inevitable China was going to shut off mining for good. If America reported the reality of China instead of propaganda, the mining ban wouldn't have been a surprise. The fact that China let mining continue past 2017 would've been more shocking.
Pollution is a great concern too. Crypo mining generally based on inner Mongolia and northern China (electricity is generally cheaper here) was wasting a large amount of energy and heavily polluting the environment. Besides I think the use of Bitcoin and stuff has never been legal in China (i might be wrong on this point)
China bans most forms of freedom. The CCP banned Google. BTC actually encourages green energy production. Battery technology is not advanced enough to make business sense to store and transport energy from rural regions into the urban centers where a bulk of energy demand is at. Because BTC operations can exist anywhere in the world miners can utilize power sources that are inaccessible at odd times. Miners incentivize utility companies to expand their renewable energy capacity long before battery technology is ready to make it viable to run the world 100% on clean energy. It is estimated that 50% or more of BTC mining energy is currently green. Don't believe the media FUD.
@@KASPA-KEY When did google start representing freedom. Google literally steals your data and sells it to advertisers or any highest bidder.
As for bitcoin mining, as long as the energy produced is from renewable, that is fine but guess what, majority of energy production is still done by coal around the world. A quick search at your freedom friendly google could show how polluted bitcoin really is.
@@KASPA-KEY Knowing some truth doesn't mean you have to hate things. Did I every say I hate google or BTC? Or did I just give you some commonly known facts. I even said BTC mining done using renewable is fine.

There are many fundamental flaws with having everything digital. Things like stolen money, no digital device, will central government track all payments? Too many questions. There is a reason why so many Germans use cash as well.

Sorry, China is already complete digital. Very very few cases require cash payment, we are talking less than 0,1% of the total transactions. I personally didn't have or use any cash for the last 3 years.
I get yelled at whenever I try to use RMB cash. I have no choice because I can’t use WeChat pay very easily. They have restrictions on it if you aren’t one of their citizens. It doesn’t always work for me. I have to keep trying and trying to transfer a few hundred RMB.
@@jasonleetaiwan I am a foreigner too and never meet any kind of restrition or problem since China start use wechat pay and Alypay. It might be you do something wrong or some other issue maybe.
@@beppeadr It may have been because my account was new so they wanted to make sure I wasn't doing something wrong with it. I left Shanghai shortly after that and haven't been back due to Covid.

0:03 Paper money was developed in China over thousand of years ago. Did the US steal the paper money?
No, the US used its status of as the world's reserve currency to imposed unilateral sanctions on foreign nations and to export its inflation by its irresponsible printing of fiat currency.
They won’t. For other countries to accept the Yuan as a reserve currency, China would have to be more transparent about it… Last I checked, China did no such thing as transparency.
If you want to trade w China youll have to accept it,,simple..
@@WANDERER0070 Do you think that after the pandemic companies will still rely primarily with China? They are slready starting to diversify to countries like Vietnam and India. So, it’ll be harder for China to leverage that in the future.
Ultimately, the only question that matters is who "owns" it or who corrupts it. How does it inevitably fail, not how it is pitched to work.
They only way the us will do it if they can continue to control Americans and if they can corrupt it

Digital yuan could not dethrone dollar, most of the people around the world don`t trust yuan because of the CCP, yuan digital currency will revolve only inside China because Chinese people have no choice but to swallow what their CCP govt. imposes. And besides, CCP govt. isn`t sustainable, it might collapse sooner or later, and do you think people outside China would take the risk of putting their money in unreliable CCP`s digital currency?
Answer: No. The regular Yuan is already not trusted due to manipulation from the government in everything from exchange rates, to the stock market, to the numbers they provide about their economy in general. An even less transparent currency would be even less accepted internationally. The reason the US Dollar has the position it does as the international currency is due to trust in the stability of the government and that assets are secure and trusted in the country. This is important to note because any currency that the Chinese Communist Party concocts will be entirely unable to fulfill the same purposes that are so vital to a currency to be accepted as the world's reserve and transactional currency.

Meh US dollar is everywhere because US rules by its military budget

China has been stopping using cash many years ago, no shoppers/restaurants/shopping mall accepts cash any more, that is why it can advance to digital currency
I agree with the downsides mentioned of getting rid of paper money, but I don't agree that if things are going digital that we should just leave it up to big tech firms like Apple so that they can have room to innovate. If privacy is your concern with digital currency then your concern about privacy should increase 10x when big tech firms are the ones leading the way.
Thats why u need state-run companies

What you do with your money should be no one else's business!
Physical money has this amazing property of not being trackable unless you're at the right time and place of the transaction. It's a basis for privacy and other rights
lol, China's been mostly digitized for the last 5 years. so being fully digitized in another 5 is not really that fast. I haven't used physical cash in years!
Well that's a great story. You have every single move monitored: what you buy, where you go, with whom. Social credit rating, nice. Enjoy 1984. Maybe you will understand why the rest of the world isn't so hot on uncle Mao's ideology. We've had Hitler in Europe, we don't need another one

... Except that the Fed isn't made up of elected officials. So really you as an everyday citizen have absolutely no say in monetary policy. At least with most major cryptocurrencies, users get to vote on monetary policy.
Dumb question, CNBC. Currency is not about paper money; even the US dollar is almost entirely electronic, and of course allows the use of Venmo, Paypal, electronic transfers, crypto purchases, etc... A Chinese state-sponsored payment app doesn't change anything. Don't pretend to be a business channel if you can't do basic homework.
4:00 That map of the eurozone is a bit odd. France is different from the other countries?
5:00 According to IMF data, in the first quarter of 2021, 59,54% of world currency reserves were in dollars, not 62%.
6:35 The European Central Bank has launched instant payments in November 2018 without a CBDC, allowing instant payments between any bank in the eurozone, showing there is no need for a CBDC for this purpose. Several european fintechs offer bank accounts in several currencies allowing fast and cheaper transfers between countries.
Hows this different than today? Y’all act like credit cards and bank accounts aren’t superior in this society. Who keeps all their money in cash on them (unless it’s dirty), everything’s already digital.
It's alot different mister brainwashed. I use cash, I don't of hidden bank fees. Credit cards and bank card ARE NOT SUPERIOR. Just more convienant to alot. And the real truth is we have a choice currently. If all currency is digital we will instantly become slaves to the system. How do you not see this? Every unit of currency will be tracked, monitored,and taxed. If you are deemed to owe money to a government agency or anyone. They can just take it whether it's a real thing you owe on or a b.s. local government saying you owe some. You will lose freedoms faster than you can imagine.
@@bobspizza7444 sweden is already there. We don’t need no stinking cdbc, blockchain, bitcoin or whatever bs.

In core, it is outside of USA “controlled” international financial system like SWIFT.
@@coltzhao SWIFT has been dead for years. We use IBAN now.
6:21 Another lie. Maybe simplification. The reason Bitcoin uses so much power is because the algorithm that generates it is designed in such a way that there is a finite amount of bitcoin that can ever be mined. It used to use very small amounts of processing power to mine the first bitcoins, but now you have to have more and more processors to calculate the dwindling supply.
Plenty of lies about bitcoin. This limit can be changed. The mysterious founder can change the code and raise the limit! Him and his cabal have full control of bitcoin and can abuse it if they want to. Or some maffia gets a hold of him. Bitcoin is not safe.
@@TheBooban If Satoshi changes the limit, which changes the entire algorithm, the current blockchain won't accept it. They would have to create a new currency. Hence all the other variations of cryptocurrencies. The Bitcoin code is open source, if anyone attempts to modify it, everyone who uses it can see the changes. This is completely different to a central bank controlled currency.
Soon you wont be able to NOT NEED A BANK tp have money....the banks are trying to own every cent u have
Fr thats the way I see it
Do we need physical money? Asking those people in flooding areas of German.
to be fair...
I suffer a catastrophe of that type 10 years ago (January 2011 Rio de Janeiro floods and mudslides)...
Believe me... money was the least of our problems...
it took 2 days to clear road to help can come to my city...
5 to light return...
about 10 days after... things were pretty normal....
food and water were being distributed and the biggest crisis I see was smokers withdraw... as was a non essential and a lt of places that may have were flooded or simply vanished in the mudslides.. add the stress and chaos of the situation and people got desperate for tobacco....
Considering your plastic debit card has more odd of lasting against a flood than your paper dollars… / and if your house is flooded to the rooftop i dont think paying cash is your greatest worry.
Anything anyone makes becomes a threat to the US. US economy seems so fragile!
It seems like the US sees everything as a competition even though the Digital Yuan is just a domestic venture. Fact is the US dollar will always be the global currency for quite some time and RMB will probably remain in circulation domestically. That said, the US is really showing its cracks and the insecurities it bears are most evident in this video
The is CNBC they’re a liberal news outlet that’s run by extremists like CNN is. They don’t represent what your average American thinks and wants. American’s love paper cash, and won’t fall for this scam. Also digital is useless after a hurricane or other natural disaster so this elitist child are insane. Also we have large populations of Amish and Mennonite in America who don’t use computers or complicated electronics. This would be an absolute disaster if this was put in.
I'm sure the Roman empire and the British empire had the same thought :) big empire just like the us will always collapse one way or an other.
Cool! I will try it out when I am China for the winter Olympics!
There's already a digital currency out there and anyone can use it. It doesn't matter what your oppressive government says. It's called Bitcoin.

Usa now only consist of 25% of China export. 75% of export goes to over 140 countries. By doing settlement with yuan, the traders save lots of fees cos no longer need to convert to usd and then convert from usd to yuan. Each transaction is in millions and the traders can safe tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands by bypassing swift usd.
The yuan circulation will goes wider as many countries now can choose yuan for transaction between countries as they need the yuan to order more products directly from China. Usd will suffer heavy blow. Cuba, north Korea, Iran can then choose to trade using yuan. 140 countries that do not depend on usa import export, will change to Yuen to start trading with Iran, Cuba,n. Korea.
What is missing in this piece is that how much the world will trust an authoritarian regime. Most recent havoc inflicted on DIDi is a reminder.

What the difference when America has wrecked havoc on the world economy with the 2007 GFC? And now they're printing 20+% of USD supply in merely a few months, debasing the reserve currency of the world which is essentially stealing wealth from the entire world's savings through currency debasement of the USD and inflation.
Exactly
Blockchain based currencies are not currencies, they are risky investments. Secondly they are another threat to the environment. Great job!
China is talented. China is striving hard to prosper without disturbing others nations. That's a great thing thanks to China
2:14 "wtih" it just stood out straight away lol
I bet uncle Sam would love this digital currency!
@JJ R well, we the people have two: one local and one federal... did I answer your question?
The biggest problem I can see is that most countries who aren't keen to accept each other's currency, assuming that happens, are willing to accept USD. For instance, if I went on holiday in Bali and then flew over to Thailand, I could not go to the markets with the Rupia and try and buy something at Baht prices. But I could take USD and bargain with it. Basic but that's basically how it works as far as I can tell.
Criminals will take USD over anything else. Even Bitcoin.
This is the same issue with XRP until all countries use the ODL from the XRP ledger. Until then USD is keen and it will take a long time to get all countries to change that. That doesn't mean it won't happen but it won't happen overnight.
The Yuan isn't in global circulation. If they did people might independentally invest abroad and the CPC doesn't want that. Doesn't help the Yuan is way over printed, highly munipulatited, extremely opaque, and not used outside China. How is allowing China to know every transaction going to change that?
Just a single word: trade, when China has nearly half of the world's trade.
@@bin.s.s. That still doesn't change the fact that back in 2015-2026 when they thought about having a more regular currency it led to 1 trillion in capital flight. How can a controlling global currency be pegged to another currency.

Well, banks are not supposed to last anyway, and the USD will collapse before 2025. Give all credits to Biden.

It's inevitable. I give it 5 years that they will become the dominant currency.
lol China tried that 15 years ago and still struggling. Problem is when country is run by a dictator and all information coming out of China is censored. Nice try.
@@lj4516 not rooting for it, just being a realist. The US is going downhill because the government is too beholden to the upper class, they aren't going to make the necessary changes needed to revitalize the country.
DIGITAL CURRENCY idea is not originated from China. It has been circulated for years in the West, but China is the first adopted it.
Now, EU also will release Digital Euro. And so do some other countries will release their digital currency soon.
It is not about Yuan VS Dollar, but about the trend. In a few years ahead, there will be another digital money beside Digital Yuan
Digital euro is a better bet.

The way I see is that they use each other.
Soviet Union won't collapse if China don't cooperate with US from Ping Pong diplomacy and President Nixon's state visit.
US won't be able to wage middle East counter-terrorism war without cheap imports and export its inflation.
Apple/Amazon won't have trillion dollars market cap valuation without China trade.
US won't be able to climb out of its 2008 subprime hole without China picking the bill via US treasury debt purchase.
Of course, China gets development in return, but it wasn't due to American Altruism.
1. Soviet collapsed 91, Nixon visited China in 72 trying to save the country from communism, in the 1970-2000 China has no international influence - so they weren’t the reason for Soviet collapse, it was just a matter of time before the country could not sustain itself. So your wrong.
2. Middle East war has nothing to do with China, and if anything China is the currency manipulator - trying to get the upper hand on its trade. Wrong again.
3. Apple and Amazon are trillion companies because they are the most innovated and are great investments overall. No one buys into a company stock because of trade with China lmao. Wrong another time.
4. US got out of the crisis with its new push on QE and bailing out companies on the taxpayer, adding to the deficit. Plus it’s just apart of the business cycle. It was not due to Treasury notes being bought from China.
American investment is what built China - which could have happened to any other country. China took the good out of capitalism and added there mix of authoritarianism. China steals everyone’s ideas and when Trump took office trying to fight the rouge regime, they didn’t like the taste of their own medicine and slapped tariffs back on us - like they didn’t already have them to begin with.

3. Wrong. Workers making iphones in China work under sweatshop condition. Apple's success is partly due to exploitation of Chinese worker. Look up suicide net and foxconn.
4. Wrong. Look up the news on Hillary Clinton pleads China to buy more US treasuries in 2009 right after 2008. Yes, not only tax payers, China also bails US out of subprime crisis.

I don't know why people are scared, countries will not use the Yuan as their reserve currency (as they don't now) even if they digitalize. People use the USD as reserve because of these 3 reasons: stability, transparency, and strong economy. So if China made a digital Yuan it doesn't change any of those.
