Billionaire Confirms US Dollar Collapse: Is It Really Happening?
Imagine waking up to a world where the U.S. dollar (USD), the bedrock of global finance, has collapsed. This scenario may seem far-fetched, but it's a narrative often discussed amidst growing concerns about the US economy. Now, one leading billionaire has joined the debate and raised further alarms. But is a full-blown dollar collapse imminent?
Mounting Debt: The Biggest Threat to the US Dollar
One of the most significant threats to the US dollar is the nation's mounting debt. According to reports, the US investment deficit reached a record $26.2 trillion, or 88% of annual GDP, by 28 de sept. de 2025. This massive debt burden puts immense pressure on the dollar's stability.
Per recent reports, in March 2025, the US Treasury paid out $89 billion in interest, which roughly means shelling $2 million per minute. The distressed debt metrics have compelled analysts to voice their woes. The constant printing of money to service this debt further devalues the currency, fueling inflation and eroding its purchasing power.
De-Dollarization: Is the World Abandoning the USD?
Tracking de-dollarization in real time has become crucial. Many countries are actively seeking alternatives to the USD for international trade. Every slight fall in its share is interpreted as confirmation of its imminent demise as the preferred global currency for financial transactions. This trend, coupled with the rise of alternative currencies and the increasing use of precious metals, poses a significant challenge to the dollar's dominance.
Gold and Silver: Safe Havens in Uncertain Times?
Now, after the Federal Reserve quietly admitted gold is replacing the U.S. dollar, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has warned of a striking decline in the U.S. dollar's global reserve status. Many investors are turning to gold and silver as safe havens. The shift towards precious metals reflects a growing lack of confidence in the dollar's long-term viability.
