I don't know what it is the issue with high IQ populations, they always seem to descend into hedonism which is followed by a decreased birthrate...maybe we'll figure it out in the next cycle.

East Asians in general (Chinese in particular) are generally acknowledged to have higher IQs than Europeans, and yet they have been around for thousands of years without "always ... descending into hedonism", as you put it. Perhaps the issue is not high IQs, but mindless destruction of traditional ethics. Chinese people have been remarkably faithful to traditional Confucian morality for over 2000 years.

Good point, I don't think it's exclusively high iq, but I'm not sure about how well of an exceptiom China is currently as they are also experiencing a deceased birthrate (though the gov't had some influence in that) and they also were Communist for so many years which is the hedonist's dream; everything is provided for by the gov't according to one's "needs" not actions (though it's incredibly flawed).
Also the Japanese and South Koreans are also experiencing this problem in a less magnified way, decreased birthrates, less marriages, etc. Though I do agree it's nowhere near where the Europeans are currently.
