Meanwhile, the digital asset sector has seen a massive boom. Especially within Bitcoin, as the asset has seen the inaugural approval of 11 Spot Bitcoin ETFs. The landmark decision reversed a decade-long trend from the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Subsequently setting the asset apart from its contemporaries and on a renewed mainstream path.

Now, Peel has stated that “the recent growth in interest of digital assets such as Bitcoin (BC),” along with stablecoins and CBDCs, has provided a challenge to the greenback. Specifically, Peel proclaimed that they “hold the opportunity to both erode and reinforce the dollar’s hegemony in global finance.”

Alternatively, Peel identified BRICS, and organizations like it that present an even greater threat. He noted that these organizations, “represent a significant portion of global GDP, and are also expressing interest in using local currencies for trade” in recent months. Thereafter, he noted these nations have “shown a willingness to trade in yuan” further solidifying the shifting global landscape.
