A global move from efficiency to economic resilience is changing the dominance of the U.S. dollar and stablecoin policies, while enhancing Bitcoin's role as a geopolitical hedge. Disruptions like the pandemic and geopolitical conflicts have exposed vulnerabilities in global supply chains, prompting countries to prioritize control and security over cost efficiency. This shift pressures the dollar's global reserve status but also drives U.S. policies to use stablecoins to extend dollar influence. Bitcoin, meanwhile, is seen as a potential 'neutral' asset outside state control, gaining appeal amid rising geopolitical tensions and fragmented trade blocs. The evolving landscape signals a rewiring of globalization into trusted economic blocs with higher friction, where crypto assets and payment infrastructures will play key roles.
