The dollar is more than money. It is one of the most powerful pieces of infrastructure in the global economy.
Why can two companies with no connection to the United States still trade in dollars? Why do central banks around the world hold U.S. debt? Why are China, Russia, and the BRICS countries trying to reduce their dependence on the American currency? And could gold, stablecoins, or digital currencies reshape the monetary order?
