A new order is coming to the world economy.

The Crisis of the Dollar System and the Rise of Trumpism
The cataclysmic changes brought about by America's shift in global strategy

The Middle East War, the Abraham Accords, the ROK-US-Japan Security Cooperation Declaration, and the US's efforts to tame China
And Trump's declaration of Bitcoin strategy!

Regarding the claim that “America will block Bitcoin”
The most astonishing counterargument, Bitcoin and the Geopolitics of the Dollar, fully revised and expanded edition.

It is quite an unconventional move.
As soon as Trump returned to the presidency of the United States, he threw the world into chaos by imposing massive tariffs.
Simply stating Trump's America First policy is not enough to grasp his intentions.
All politicians claim to put their country's interests first, but they don't make it their main campaign promise.
Because it is such an obvious thing.
But the slogan has become synonymous with Trump, and has embarrassed many Americans as well as other countries.
To understand why Trump was able to return and the direction he intends to take America, it's necessary to review the path America has taken since World War II.

If the United States is an empire, then the dollar system is the system that existed when the United States was at its most generous.
After World War II, the United States supported its allies through the dollar system, ceded sovereignty to independent nations, managed the Cold War, and ultimately won it.
But in the meantime, the very dollar that had drained America's power had left the country in a state of social division and identity crisis bordering on civil war.
The rise of the political and social phenomenon called 'Trumpism' and Trump's return are not unrelated to this.
And behind Trump's advocacy of Bitcoin as a strategic asset, following his victory in the political civil war, lies the belief that Bitcoin could play a special role in supporting the dollar.

So this book primarily deals not with why the US can't get rid of Bitcoin, but with why it has no intention of doing so.
Under the 'post-1945 system,' the United States has struggled between the imperialist world order and the post-imperialist disorder to maintain the dollar system, but the dollar system has lost its strength due to territorial disputes, economic wars, and hegemonic struggles around the world.
And with Trump's return to Bitcoin, the world has entered a completely new turning point.
While this phenomenon stems from the unique figure of Trump, his choice is also a predictable trend that is in no way detached from the structural context of the historical dynamics of the international order.
This book examines key events of the past and present, from Bretton Woods to the Abraham Accords, the 2023 Korea-US-Japan Agreement, and the US's efforts to tame China. It examines how America's global strategy is evolving and explores its implications for the economy and politics from a geopolitical perspective.
And it proves that Bitcoin is at the center of all these phenomena and the changes to come.

This book primarily addresses not why the United States can't get rid of Bitcoin, but why it has no intention of doing so.
Since discovering Bitcoin, I've primarily focused on explaining why governments can't destroy it.
But the chapter changed when Trump returned to the US presidency, taking a bite out of Bitcoin.
The US is not only unwilling to eliminate Bitcoin, but also intends to foster it.
That's because Bitcoin is so huge.
It can be seen that the United States has decided to keep it close rather than far away.

The race for technological supremacy is evolving beyond a simple battle for market share into a geopolitical war over survival and dominance among nations.
Japan's frustrations in competing with the United States, and China's current crisis due to US sanctions, remind us that technology is not simply a measure of industrial success, but a tool for reshaping the international order.

Although China challenges American hegemony, if you think about it carefully, China's expansion is a problem for Russia, India, South Korea, Taiwan, and Japan, not an immediate problem for the United States.
On the other hand, the United States does not seem to receive the respect and economic rewards it deserves from India, South Korea, and Japan, even though they are doing the work that should be done by those countries.
The fact that this perspective has long been ingrained in the worldview of the American public is precisely what the mainstream media, political, and bureaucratic elites who ignored or downplayed Trump's rise missed.
Trump is an individual, but the Trump phenomenon may be a manifestation of the isolationism that had been dormant under the surface of American politics, rising to the mainstream.

In conclusion, the Abraham Accords presented a new paradigm for Middle East diplomacy.
This is a significant milestone in strengthening strategic cooperation between Israel and the Gulf states based on shared security and economic interests.
This agreement, a tangled web of Netanyahu's political calculations, Trump's pragmatic diplomacy, and Iran's relentless provocations, is a testing ground for a new Middle East balance, and a microcosm of America's shifting global strategy.

Bitcoin's finality has the potential to seriously undermine countries' ability to manage their currencies.
Currency management is a key element of economic sovereignty, serving as a primary means by which a nation regulates and stabilizes its economy through its currency.
To this end, countries encourage their citizens to use their currency as a store of value, control currency circulation, and implement monetary policy based on this.
Monetary policy is a key tool for stabilizing the economy by stimulating the economy or curbing overheating.
However, the proliferation of Bitcoin could disrupt these policies.

The post-1945 regime also required violence as much as imperialism, and it had to pay a price.
Even so, there are diagnoses that the universal order is reaching its limit.
As the shale gas revolution has made the United States a net energy exporter, security in the Middle East is becoming a concern for Europe, China, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan.
In the United States, where militant liberals dominate the media and culture, idealism is reaching a point of denial of reality, while those who know reality are leaning towards isolationism.
For technocratic elites with vested interests in the world system to continue to hold power, several conditions must coincidentally be met.
And that too, continuously.
