👁️ La Russie envisage apparemment de ramener certains règlements commerciaux au dollar américain, après avoir tenté auparavant de réduire l'utilisation du dollar.
👁️ La principale raison est pratique _ le dollar américain reste la monnaie la plus facile et la plus liquide pour le commerce mondial, en particulier pour l'énergie et les matières premières.
👁️ Si la Russie augmente à nouveau l'utilisation du dollar, cela pourrait ajouter plus de dollars dans la circulation mondiale, augmentant la liquidité dans le système.
👁️ Ce mouvement concerne l'efficacité, pas la politique. Le dollar domine toujours le commerce mondial parce qu'il fonctionne mieux que les alternatives.

President Trump says inflation is “way down,” while the stock market and 401(k) accounts are soaring. Americans reportedly see more value for money, and investments are performing strongly compared to previous years.

💥 Why it matters:

Lower inflation = more disposable income & cheaper borrowing.

Strong markets could boost consumer confidence and corporate earnings.

Investors & analysts are watching closely — this could sway markets and public sentiment before elections.

Bitcoin investors are being forced to rethink why they hold the asset as inflation data cools, according to Bitcoin entrepreneur Anthony Pompliano.
“I think the challenge for Bitcoin investors, can you hold an asset when there is not high inflation in your face on a day-to-day basis?” Pompliano said during an interview with Fox Business on Thursday. “Can you still believe in what Bitcoin’s value proposition is, which is that it’s a finite-supply asset. If they print money, Bitcoin is going higher,” he said.
“Bitcoin and gold are great long-term things,” he said. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) fell to 2.4% in January from 2.7% in December, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. However, Mark Zandi, Moody’s chief economist, recently told CNBC that inflation “looks better on paper than in reality.”

Bitcoin (BTC) is typically seen as a hedge against inflation because only 21 million coins will ever exist. When central banks increase the money supply and the value of fiat currencies declines, investors often turn to perceived riskier assets, such as Bitcoin, to protect their purchasing power.
Bitcoin sentiment has reached multi-year lows
It comes as sentiment for Bitcoin has reached multi-year lows not seen since June 2022, with the Crypto Fear & Greed Index, which measures overall crypto market sentiment, posting an “Extreme Fear” score of 9 in its Saturday update.

US dollar devaluation will be covered up by “monetary slingshot”
Pompliano said the macro environment could create short-term volatility for Bitcoin before it resumes its upward trajectory.
“We’re going get deflationary-type forces in the short term, people are going to ask to print money and to drop interest rates,”he said.
He explained that this will lead to the devaluation of the US dollar, though the effect won’t be immediately visible.

“The currency is going to be devalued at a time where deflation covers up the impact, so I call it a monetary slingshot,” Pompiano said.
Pompliano forecasted that the Federal Reserve will continue to expand the money supply to “deal with inflation,” but as the dollar faces further devaluation, he expects Bitcoin to become “more valuable than ever.”
The US dollar index, which tracks the dollar's strength against a basket of major currencies, is down 2.32% over the past 30 days and is trading at $96.88.
