When this was originally 'news' it was 2030. Then China revised it. Then the US. Then China......and so on.

“The role of international currency,” is a relative concept. I don't understand why people are concerned about it unless they are trading currencies for profit. I sometimes wonder if there should be only one currency.

It's only a major concern for the people in the United States who will see their standard of living go down..(Since the US Media has a enorm influance around the world, they will report as if it's the end of the world. Reality will show different...life goes on)

“weird..before it was 2016”

This news is about when a currently will finally topple the dollar. China is still most probably going to hit number 1 economy in 2016 but this does not mean all nations will automaticly dump all there US dollars in favor of a different currency right away.
