BUT, there is definitely way more chatter about alternative payment options, including from well-placed government sources and central banks in important non-west allied countries.
It's now a matter of "when", not "if" when an alternative currency pops up, maybe a BRICS currency.
The use of a supposedly neutral financial network (SWIFT) as a sanction weapon will make other nations who aren't on good terms with the U.S. and the West (and not just the "usual suspects" but many nations in Africa and South America too) seeking alternatives.
As previously mentioned, Bitcoin is a viable alternative. But there may be others. In any case I see nations ganging up to create an alternative to the SWIFT network, potentially undermining its usefulness.
Is it only a genocide if a non-western ally does it?
