> Velina Tchakarova says U.S. stablecoins defend the dollar’s role as China and Russia advance state-controlled digital currencies.

Geopolitical strategist and FACE (For A Conscious Experience) founder Velina Tchakarova argued in a discussion published Thursday that Bitcoin (BTC) could link financial systems centered on U.S. stablecoins and state-controlled digital currencies.

Tchakarova describes the U.S. as using stablecoins to protect the dollar’s position. China and Russia, in her view, are advancing government-controlled alternatives, including the digital yuan and digital ruble. She presents Bitcoin’s decentralized design as a possible connection between the competing systems and says it may face greater pressure from state actors as geopolitical rivalry deepens.

Her discussion also covered systemic risk, conflicts, the Strait of Hormuz, oil markets, rate hikes and inflation. Other topics included competition over rare earths and chips, the prospects for a lasting deal, and artificial intelligence’s role in geopolitical competition. Tchakarova also described a possible meeting among Trump, Xi and Putin as a positive signal for markets.

She argued that the Bitcoin community cannot remain insulated from geopolitical forces.
