Preparing for this transition involves shifting your mental model from **"debt-backed fiat"** to **"asset-backed tokens."** Munawar recommends a three-pillar preparation strategy:

  1. Diversification into Hard Assets: Increase exposure to assets that the new digital systems will be anchored in, specifically gold and infrastructure-led real estate.
  2. Infrastructure Literacy: Gain a technical understanding of the "rails" being used, such as blockchain protocols, Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), and Real-Time Gross Settlement (RTGS) systems.
  3. Connectivity Re-alignment: Establish a presença and financial connectivity in markets that are leading the move to the new financial Operating System (such as the BRICS nations and Middle Eastern trade hubs).

The goal is to move from being a "consumer" of legacy finance to a "participant" in the new, sovereign-led industrial economy.
