@ariaflame @nemeciii It is no coincidence that a private company in Denmark has taken the first step.
I would suggest reading a report by Deutsche Bank (also private) that analyzes the possible effects, advantages, and disadvantages of a financial war (using capital as a weapon) in the event of a total escalation with the US.
As I said, it is difficult to quantify trust, but when it is lost, it has brutal effects on perception and decision-making.

@Huopa It already crumbles since Shrimps first term. Now, as the US have arrived to being a fascist state, where most inhabitants stay all too indifferent towards their own oppression, I'd expect to degrade the rest of trust from elsewhere in no time. Greenland was really a notable peak, as that affects NATO.
@jrp Of course the first term was already a shock to the trust of US as a geopolitical ally, but the institutions and economy are very strong in US and Trump was not really able to destroy the trust in them. This second round it is clear that trust to US institutions begins to shake a little. Greenland is indeed the notable peak for this phenomenon, but there has been a lot already before this. I am optimist and I think US will survive Trump second term, but things will not be the same anymore.

Danish pension fund to dump US treasuries "The US is basically not a good credit and long-term the US government finances are not sustainable," says chief investment officer.
Europe holds $8 trillion in USA bonds and equities. This is just the beginning.

@nemeciii I guess it will be a slow and long crumbling of trust in US economy and politics.. in 5 years it will be interesting to see if this has turned out to be true.

@nemeciii Getting rid of American digital bondage is also so primordial too. Just yesterday, I removed Windows altogether from my computer.

Yes, exactly a run on US treasuries globally is a financial disaster for those that hold treasuries.
Japan, China, US pension funds, banks that hold treasuries.
I am kind of curious how this affects stable coins.
