Bitcoin, Libra, and the US Dollar: Deconstructing the Complex Relationship Between Digital and Fiat Currencies
Bitcoin, as decentralized "digital gold," and the centralized US dollar represent two fundamentally different monetary paradigms, and their historical correlation is undergoing structural changes. The Libra project, initiated by Meta (formerly Facebook) and later renamed Diem, attempted to create a global stablecoin pegged to fiat currencies like the US dollar but was ultimately terminated due to regulatory pressure, reflecting the cautious attitude of the traditional financial system towards the challenges posed by digital currency innovation. The US dollar, as the world's primary reserve currency, faces challenges and evolution in its dominance from these emerging forces in the digital age.

Bitcoin and the US Dollar: Shifting Correlations, Policy Impacts, and a New Market Landscape
Bitcoin's historical negative correlation with the US dollar shifted in 2026, with JPMorgan Chase confirming its transition to a positive correlation. The US government, particularly the current Trump administration, is actively promoting the United States as a "cryptocurrency capital" and plans to establish a strategic Bitcoin reserve. Institutional capital continues to flow into spot Bitcoin ETFs, and the US dollar-pegged stablecoin market is also growing. These factors collectively shape the new dynamic between Bitcoin and the US dollar, but market volatility risks persist.

Why is Bitcoin thriving but struggling to replace the US dollar's global dominance?
Bitcoin, as a decentralized digital asset, thrives on its scarcity, anti-inflationary potential, global payment efficiency, and increasing institutional adoption. However, its extreme price volatility, deflationary risks stemming from a fixed money supply, limited transaction processing capacity, and the strong control governments exert over fiat currencies make it difficult for Bitcoin to challenge the U.S. dollar's status as the global reserve currency and primary medium of exchange. The U.S. dollar, backed by its deep network externalities and central bank support, continues to hold an unshakeable central position in the global financial system.

Combining the latest market dynamics of 2026, it explores their respective advantages and challenges and summarizes expert views on diversified asset allocation.
-
Why is Bitcoin thriving but struggling to replace the US dollar?
Bitcoin has achieved significant growth and widespread acceptance globally, thanks to its decentralization, scarcity, censorship resistance, and its narrative as "digital gold" for value storage. However, its inherent drastic price volatility, transaction speed limitations, lack of universal fiat currency status, and governments' control over monetary policy make it difficult to become a stable everyday transaction medium and global reserve currency like the US dollar. Bitcoin and the US dollar each play different roles, and it is difficult for them to replace each other in the short term.
