Total bullshit for this reason: the Yuan is not a free floating currency like the US Dollar or the Euro as example of two reserve currencies.

The Yuan value is set by the Chinese government.
Quote:
In China's case, the country's central bank has adjusted the daily trading band for the yuan, which is allowed to fluctuate 2% above or below a rate set by the People's Bank of China.

The basis on which the government had fixed the daily exchange rate has been a secret, though significant capital outflows in recent months have suggested that the yuan should be losing value and it hasn't.
Why China's devaluation of the yuan matters so much - LA Times

That is not worth a fuck as a reserve currency. Until it is allowed to float at market value.

How's the ruble doing?
