My best (stupid) guess is weapons. US gov has a ton of weapons. Already sells tons of weapons. Now the prices will always remain stable. Other countries would love to know that 30 million usd would always be able to buy an f15. Other countries declaring war will increase the value of the USD, as buying weapons from us government will decrease amount of money in circulation.
Currency needs to be backed by something other countries would want and actually hold. If nobody is holding a supply of it “backed” it would be pushing the currency value down.
