imo fiat money undergirds climate change, wars, and societal divide (arguably misinfo too) to some meaningful degree, so in a way fiat money is the biggest threat. i'm mostly concerned about AI and wars right now though - both seem a matter of not if but when.
I think fiat money is not as direct a threat as the options in the poll are that's why I didn't put it here. I also think that humanity will easily come over it, which makes it a weaker opponent in comparison to all the options in the poll.

Fiat money will not easily be overcome just because it is such a potent power projection tool of nation states- and if you think nation states/governments will be dispensed with easily I say that is wrong. People - most people will clamour for government if there is none.
Government is fundamental to peoples security and wealth- yes there is a lot of bad government but without government people are even worse off.
If you disagree go live somewhere there is no government and see how you fare.

With easily I mean humanity does not face a direct threat from it. It's the crooked government that's culprit of devising the fiat devil. I'm not saying that "abolish the govs", I mean the restoration on governments or fiat money can be done more easily than it can be on the options in the poll.
