Warning from JPMorgan: “Digital Currencies May Be Trouble in the USA”

By DHEagle | CryptoTent | 22 May 2020


"The US is most affected by the destructive potential of the digital currency," analysts at JPMorgan Chase & Co. stated. Josh Younger, head of the US interest rate derivatives strategy, JPMorgan, the largest bank in the US, and chief economist Michael Feroli wrote:

“Today's economy revolves around the US dollar hegemony. THIS SITUATION IMPACTS THE MOST US. ”

More Fragile Links in the Global Dollar System

Although analysts did not expect the dollar to lose its global reserve currency status recently, it pointed to the weakening of currency sovereignty, including the trade agreement and the SWIFT system. 

Take Initiative in US Digital Currencies

According to the bank; Especially for the USA, digital currencies will be an exercise in geopolitical risk management. 

“Offering a cross-border payment solution built on the digital dollar - especially if it was designed to minimize damage to the structure of the local financial system - would be a modest investment to reflect power in the global economy.”

US President Donald Trump previously had a similar view with one of the US Federal Reserve board candidates, Judy Shelton.

Shelton said that a future digital dollar would help "maintain the priority of the dollar worldwide" and believed that the US "had to think about it".
