I Choose Singapore Dollar (SGD)
but not so many amount of my wealth in fiat, i prefer invest to gold / property / stock
RMB.

If people argue wider adaptation is why bitcoin value should sky rock, then choosing RMB is a no brainer since all the production are mostly done in China these days.
be careful holding currency from Big industry country
their gov weaken the value of their currency to support product export

SGD is another interesting one. It might be good to hold the currency of a capitalist minded country that doesn't have a reason like exports to drive their currency down.

Euro is very cheap now. I expect Euro to rise in value when their economy improve in a few years.
It won't. It will keep getting worse.

Look inside yourself, and you will see that you are the bubble.

Depending on what you are comparing it to.

Euro/USD will probably not get any worse, but purchasing power will probably keep dropping unless they fix the fundamental problem.

HKD or EUR.

EUR because there are some places that offer halfway decent interest rates. Especially in Ukraine which the Euro union isn't going to allow to default  Grin
HKD because its an actually stable currency.

It is but they have other foreign currency reserves so in case of hyperinflation its marginally better protected. Also, you get marginally better interest rates.

Swiss Francs or the Yen

Yen is doomed in short order.  Swissie is pegged to the Euro now.  USD has least chance of hyperinflating over the next 2 years.  After that, not so much.

Give a man a fish and he eats for a day.  Give a man a Poisson distribution and he eats at random times independent of one another, at a constant known rate.

That peg will break.  It will re-peg to CNY.

Its strictly better than the USD. Its amazing to me that people aren't already making the switch.

I keep it in Canadian dollars.   

The Canadian financial system handled the financial crisis well and banks have strict lending rules.  In addition, the Canadian economy is doing ok.

OR

Maybe the Chinese Renminbi in 10 years if it becomes more stable.

Not the Euro.  I think at least one country will leave the Euro in the next 20 years.

sure, Singapore is third-highest per capita income and stable economic is past years
and political situation is that region (southern part of SouthEast Asia) is good
so i think SGD will stable in the future and interesting to invest

USD and EURO will probably continue to lose value over time as the population is still attached to entitlement mentality.
