The dollar isn't just America's currency. It is the plumbing of global trade—the world’s settlement mechanism, safe haven, and store of value. But Trump’s tariff agenda, political interference in the Federal Reserve, and broader institutional instability are changing how the rest of the world assesses US credibility.

Why reserve currencies depend on trust, not "strength"
Why the US deficit is not an accident but a structural feature of the system
Why one-currency global trade has become fragile

Why the BRICS alternatives don’t solve the core design problem
Why the IMF / World Bank have failed to lead reform
Why we now need a neutral clearing system for global trade
The question is not "does the dollar collapse tomorrow?"
