If the US gets invested with such "virtual" ("out-of-thin-air", newly issued, etc.) dollars i guess it would be even worse as it would only inflate prices in US

If the US gets invested with such "virtual" ("out-of-thin-air", newly issued, etc.) dollars i guess it would be even worse as it would only inflate prices in US while not doing anything else.
- Yoric 1y agoMaybe? What we're discussing is clearly beyond my ability to grasp (macro-)economics.
- sharpshadow 1y agoIt is inflating prices but also doing a lot more contrary to nothing.
- overfeed 1y agoBeing the biggest reserve currency has a little-discussed perk where the reserves lower the average velocity of money, which blunts the inflationary pressure of money-printing. Eroding trust in the US will deplete these deep pools of USD and will result in a more direct linkage with domestic inflation in the future.
