sanctions = faster de-dollarization of the world.

Swagasaurus-Rex@reddit

replaced with what currency? The yuan? The ruble? Bitcoin?

At least one firm is using Tether (usdt) https://www.ledgerinsights.com/chinese-firm-boasts-of-using-tether-stablecoin-to-skirt-russian-sanctions/

BRICS would be a combination of all member nation’s currencies.

BRICS is a joke tho

It is until it isn’t. It’s already affecting global price discovery in agriculture for example.

Literally anything that isn't the US dollar.

It's not like one other currency has to rise and surpass the dollar before others decide to not use it anymore.

All other countries have to do to remove their dependency on the US dollar is to just not use it. Thats it. So when you ask "what else could they possibly use?" The answer is literally any other currency that isn't the US dollar.

When countries decide to trade in anything other than the dollar, the dollar does not benefit from those trades.

Your profile history reads like a tankie circlejerk.

The topic was about the US imposing sanctions on Iran bertie.

ShadyClouds@reddit

You also forget to mention the sanctions on Iran from Germany, France, UK as well as the US for supplying weapons to Russia.

So you have them billions of dollars and then they did what they always do. Find terrorism and then it’s like oh shit. Let’s give em a half measure and sanction them. The damage is done.

traketaker@reddit

I wonder how many Iranian preppers are in this sub to make that qualify as prepper intel

Syrixs-Selexis@reddit

It’s a start but still no where near enough to actually deter anything.

IsItAnyWander@reddit

This is what's so weird about people's thoughts on this. The US doesn't benefit from a peaceful middle east. They do not have that as a goal.

Neither does the Middle East.

Upset-Diamond2857@reddit

I don’t think Iran really cares as the world decouples

I’m pretty sure the leaders with billions of dollars do.

Druid_High_Priest@reddit

Oh goody! More sanctions that do not work. The US team is idiots as they have not figured out yet that Iran, North Korera, and Russia have figured out ways around sanctions.

daviddjg0033@reddit

They absolutely do work. Russia is paying up to seven percent or higher just to exchange to Chinese Yuan. The US sanctions continue to be effective in strangling Putin.

Goblinboogers@reddit

Why Russia and China share a border. They can trade directly without the need of the rest of the world. Sanctions do nothing here

Trade spiked after the war and has slowed. Russia does not have the capacity and with sanctions the technology to deliver gas or anything of much use.

RussianFruit@reddit

Sanctions? Mfer they should be fucking blacklisted for the destruction of the countries they have their proxies in but ok bro another sanction I guess

Tankies and Russian/Chinese/Iranian bots like to do drive-bys on this sub to scare us.

SirEdwardI@reddit

Oh wow i see them shaking in their boots!

Turbulent-Today830@reddit

New sanctions, new sanctions…. Seems like we’re constantly hearing this
