It's odd how the dollar can still keep its strength - probably because of its wide-spread use.
Petrodollar was shaken countless times so far, the price of petrol also went down terribly, the US economy is taking a dive and now the give QE juice to the people...
It's still holding on. Perhaps because it defies logic. The dollars are like cards in a card game: so long as everyone accepts the basic rules and so long as they are accepted in the game, the cards can travel all around from person to person.
No-one doubts poker chips in a casino, right? So long as they're "good for the game" and they can be exchanged for "real greenies" at the end.
Now I can see the similarity between the USD and Bitcoin.
What will it take for the dollar to eventually PLAY BY THE RULES, devalue and collapse?
We can look at charts with the dollar's velocity, inflation, debt, interest rates, QE, but regardless... the dollar somehow doesn't take account the rules and it's still going all around. The casino is bankrupt, the clients are drunk, the lights are off, but people are still at the tables collectin' the poker chips.
What is this, the Twilight Zone?
