What if US Dollar Crashes?

[funkenstein]

It will be more than disaster if the US dollar collapsed. It would be much worse than the Great Depression, and because of the size of our economy it would be even worse than the economic collapse of the past. It would cause a ripple that would have a devastating affect on the world-wide economy and at the end the entire world economy will be collapsed.

It would be better than celebration if the US dollar collapsed.  It would be much better than the Enlightenment, and because of the size of our economy it would be even better than the great victories and transitions to prosperity and progress of the past.  It would cause a ripple that would have a devastating effect on the world-wide forces of destruction and the entire world will be buoyed to new heights.

it's something that won't happen in the near future, if ever. the us government will do everything to make sure it won't crash. if they have to set their money printers to work harder than they do now, they will surely do it. they will keep stretching it for ever.

[hungryFinest]

Don't think this will happen any soon

But pretty much if the US dollar crashes most of the currency in this world will crash

I don't think any will survive

You assume there is a guy called "the US government".  There isn't such a guy.

Hmm well the USD lost 99% of its value over the last century..  funny thing it looks like rice, beer, cigarettes, and silver are still around. 

[JohnyWalkerUK]

Well that is just 1% that can happend.

But if it happend I don't know the answers I hope something Nice for BTC.

Dollar is only worthless piece of cotton paper powered by hot air from corrupted politician mouths and backed up by armor and guns. Bitcoin is currency of free people powered by internet and backed up by free market so in my opinion it is matter of time when Dollar sinks and Bitcoin take his position of strongest world currency.

[yenxz]

really hard to magine that,but everything could happen.. and if UD  Dollar crashed,i think will affect to other currency,maybe bitcoin will rise up to $1000 

[zenitzz]

If the economy dies and the dollar is no longer any good, you have gold. Great, its worth will only be as good as the individual that trades for it wants it to be. You can not eat it or use it. If we get to that point we have no economic system in place then gold will also be useless. Food, water, bullets and TP will have more value than gold

[LowlandGorilla.]

If the dollar crashes, the internet will definitely be affected which will affect Bitcoin.

[Sir_lagsalot]

Just think about what happened in the GFC. Hehehehe. Australia will be higher than USD once again, not 73:100...

If USD dropped, other countries will drop with it, due to their international trade network.

US dollar is the world's currency, collapsing of dollar would afect the world's economies and probably pull it down with it. I am not expecting dollar to collapse anytime soon. But U.S. debt now comes to about $60 trillion, it`s something that concerning me more. Many predict that debt will rise, so what will U.S. government do about that is yet to be seen. And it`s not the only country that have a big debt.

[BillyBobZorton]

It can only mean good news for Bitcoin. If the fiat currencies system, the natural behaviour in psychology is search for alternatives that operate as much outside the system as possible and Bitcoin is the best option for that in the 21 century.

[FrostStick]

If US Dollar crashes I'd be happy since I'm hodling bitcoins!

[Betwrong]

I was thinking about this, what if the US Dollar crashes like speculated by many renowned economists around the world?
What will be it's affects on the beloved currency, BTC?

I don't think US Dollar might crash. Most of those "renowned economists around the world" are just haters IMO.

But I do think that Bitcoin is a better option in general.

[funkenstein]

If the dollar crashes, the internet will definitely be affected which will affect Bitcoin.

This guy is using IP over USD. 

[FrannWilder]

If the dollar will crash it will make a big impact on the whole world

A lot of currencies are depending on the dollar

[funkenstein]

The impact will be entirely positive.  NO currencies depend on the dollar.  How could a currency depend on the dollar??  That makes no sense at all.

If the US dollar crashes, bitcoin will most likely crash. This is because most of the bitcoin users are from the US, and with them gone, bitcoin will basically be much, much cheaper, as the americans try to sell their coins to get some sort of cash. Or maybe BTC will go up, they will try to convert their money into bitcoin, and cause a huge price spike.

It will have the opposite effect. People from around the world and in the US will see the inflation in the US and they will try to protect himself by buying gold, silver and of course bitcoin as well.

No one in their right mind will sell their bitcoins to buy a currency that is going through a hyperinflation. Keep in mind that people can shop with bitcoins and every business will start accepting bitcoins if their customers want to. So the entire dollar economy can shift pretty quickly to gold, silver and bitcoin.
