In the course of the study, the prerequisites aimed at changing the world monetary order were considered; an assessment was made of the possible use of cryptocurrency as a new global monetary standard. The concept of supranational currency is formulated. The paper proposes an alternative theoretical solution for the circulation of the world monetary system, based on the simultaneous circulation of several types of world currencies at once, including cryptocurrencies. The purpose of this study was to study and determine the trends of ongoing changes associated with the transformation of the world monetary system, the circulation of cryptocurrency and a decrease in the level of confidence on the part of the world community in the US dollar.
