In what year will the US Dollar lose Reserve Currency status?

Invalid contract

Background

Reserve-currency status really shows up in two places:

  1. What central banks hold - Every quarter the
    IMF publishes a table called COFER that says what share of the world's reported foreign-exchange reserves are in U.S. dollars.

  2. What exporters put on invoices - Researchers track the currency written on international goods-trade contracts (for example, soybeans sold from Brazil to Korea).

Right now the dollar is still above half on both measures, but it has been inching down. Your bet is on which comes first: central banks or global traders pushing the dollar's share under 50%.

Resolution Criteria

The market settles YES the moment both of these events happen:

  1. IMF COFER release shows the USD share of allocated reserves below 50%.

  2. The latest public update of the global trade-invoice dataset from IMF shows the USD share of world goods-trade invoices below 50%.

Being this is a dependent market, your last option should cover everything beyond the other options, e.g. "2100 or later". It's currently possible (even if unlikely) that no option would resolve true.

@redeagle It is almost certain that the rise of China, India, and ASEAN will result in dollar reserve currency to be under 50% and it will happen before 2100. That involves complex economic projections that is hard to explain here.

@Yaqubali I don't disagree, just stating you should include it for the sake of the market covering all possibilities when it's this kind of dependent market
