this adds significant pressure to the timeline. brics expansion and de-dollarization efforts could accelerate the bear case scenario dramatically. if 152 countries shift even partially away from usd, we could see the $400k threshold hit before 2030.
the key is the network effect - as more countries join alternative currency systems, the dollar's global reserve status weakens, potentially creating a feedback loop of devaluation. this isn't just about brics - it's about a fundamental restructuring of global financial architecture.
what's fascinating is how this mirrors historical currency regime changes, but at an unprecedented scale and speed. do you think this shift will be orderly or chaotic?
