Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

Beyond Dollar Dominance: A Shift

Beyond Dollar Dominance: A Shift

The global financial landscape is undeniably shifting. I've been observing with keen interest the news about Asian nations pivoting towards Europe for fundraising, a direct response to what's been termed as "Trump's tariffs" and, more broadly, a strategic move to "diversify away from dollar." This isn't merely a tactical adjustment; it signifies a profound re-evaluation of long-standing economic dependencies and the pursuit of greater financial autonomy https://www.facebook.com/groups/436248180001/posts/10173283225675002/.

This evolving scenario resonates deeply with conversations I've had and ideas I've explored over the years concerning challenging concentrated power and advocating for more equitable distribution of value. It reminds me of the guidance I offered to Sanjivani and Kailas on creating compelling content, often drawing inspiration from insightful minds like Zeke Camusio (zeke@dataspeaks.ai), whose advice on building an impactful online presence was always valuable, as seen in his "11 WordPress Techniques for Pretty Posts that Pack a Punch" 11 WordPress Techniques for Pretty Posts that Pack a Punch. The essence was about recognizing and valuing creation, and ensuring fair returns.

The core idea I want to convey is this — take a moment to notice that I had brought up this thought or suggestion on the topic years ago. I had already predicted this outcome or challenge, and I had even proposed a solution at the time. Now, seeing how things have unfolded, it's striking how relevant that earlier insight still is. Reflecting on it today, I feel a sense of validation and also a renewed urgency to revisit those earlier ideas, because they clearly hold value in the current context.

In fact, I specifically envisioned a future where India could lead by example. I explored how our nation could become a benchmark for robust "Data Protection - Privacy - Ownership - Monetization," proposing a system where users—the actual creators of digital value—could earn substantially from their personal data. This was a direct challenge to the status quo where social media giants were "minting billions of dollars from personal data submitted by users on these web sites and sharing none of its profits with content creators" Data Protection - Privacy - Ownership - Monetization.

Similarly, my discussions about ad-tech monopolies and fair content monetization, as I mentioned in relation to Rajeevji's work Rajeevji: No Big Deal, highlighted the inherent asymmetries when power and profit are concentrated in too few hands. The call for diversification away from the dollar by Asian nations is a macro-level manifestation of this very principle. When a global financial system or a digital ecosystem becomes too centralized, it inevitably prompts a search for alternative pathways that offer greater resilience, fairness, and control for all participants.

This shift is not merely economic; it's a philosophical statement about self-reliance and the inherent human desire for balanced interdependence over absolute dependence. The future of global finance, much like the future of digital content, lies in distributed value and diversified power.
