Stablecoins Could Become a Quiet Tool of U.S. Global Influence, Says Brent Johnson
Brent Johnson, CEO of Santiago Capital and architect of the “Dollar Milkshake Theory,” argues that stablecoins may serve as a subtle but powerful instrument for expanding U.S. influence worldwide. Speaking in a recent interview on the Bankless YouTube channel, Johnson said he believes the United States is preparing to harness stablecoin technology to reinforce its dominance, rather than allowing the technology to weaken its position.
Johnson’s view builds on his Dollar Milkshake Theory, which suggests that global liquidity and leverage are repeatedly drawn into the U.S. dollar—particularly during periods of financial stress—because of the dollar’s central role in global trade and debt markets.
He contends that stablecoins could become a key extension of this dynamic, potentially acting as the primary vehicle through which the U.S. maintains economic influence, especially over smaller nations within the global financial system.
