I very much seriously doubt the Japanese will do that for both internal and external reasons. China - has lots of $$$ supposedly and they wouldn't want to devalue what they currently have either.
I agree. Neither China nor Japan would like to see their reserves devalue. However, it might be smaller economies that could tip the scales against the dollar. Once a smaller though significant economy, like South Korea for example, dumps the dollar, the still unsold US Treasuries in the asset column of central banks of other countries will collapse. In the stampede to get out everybody will get hurt.
