Abstract: Abstract With the rise of China’s economy, the use of the RMB in multilateral international trade has been increasing. For instance, international students or tourists can directly use Alipay or WeChat for overseas consumption, as the system automatically converts foreign currencies into RMB for settlement. In the short term, the US dollar’s traditional dominant position is unlikely to be replaced. However, in the long run, since the collapse of the Bretton Woods system, the global monetary system has evolved into a pattern of multipolar competition. From the Japanese yen and Euro to the Canadian dollar, and now the increasingly prevalent use of the RMB, this trend will ultimately lead to the emergence of a diversified currency system based on multiple reserve currencies. As the legal tender of China, the world’s second-largest economy, the RMB plays a crucial role in major trading arenas. The accelerated internationalization of the RMB, coupled with advancements in digital technology, is further facilitating the process of global economic integration.
