Unstable Bitcoin Values Leaving You Hot Under the Collar? Will Bitcoin be Replaced by a New Cryptocurrency Soon?

The short, yet still wholly undetermined answer to the title question is: No. Bitcoin is still a very young currency – there are bound to be a few bumps along the way. How many countless dollars have been stolen from banks over the years? How many dollars, Yen, Pounds, etc., have been counterfeited? We (humans) find value in some of the strangest things.

The Future Global Reserve Currency: US Dollar or Chinese Yuan?

There’s a lot of issues to consider when attempting to determine the current state of the USD, and the entire fiat system that backs it and other currencies.

What is the Most Valuable Fiat Currency in the World Today?

What makes a currency strong isn’t necessarily what makes it popular or valuable, as you’re about to read. In fact, the most popular form of currency, the USD is steeped in debt with nearly 17.5 billion owed by the nation’s government (source). Furthermore, the current capital to assets ratio (Capital Ratio) of the US Federal Reserve is a slowly improving 11.3%. Not the best numbers, but far from the worst either. So mull those numbers over while you read the rest of this. Do you think the USD is still on top? A fiat currency (what is it, anyway?) a.k.a.
