You may not know it yet, but the fight of the future of the global reserve asset is already underway.  &#xA;&#xA;America is taking the path of stablecoins that will be backed by short-duration US treasuries.  The thinking is that material demand across the globe for USD as the reserve currency can be repurposed into support for American debt. &#xA;&#xA;China is taking a gold centric and sovereign/institutional path.  Trading partners can convert any RMB surpluses via the gold window at the Shanghai International Gold Exchange.  It is a physical gold option and trading partners can take full delivery. &#xA;&#xA;Very different approaches and targeting very different constituencies.</html></oembed>
