BRICS: 21 Countries Officially Agree to Ditch the US Dollar in 2023

[Davi Meireles]

The US dollar is facing challenges from developing countries that are threatening its status as the global reserve currency. A handful of alliances in Asia, Africa, and South America are looking to end dependency on the U.S. The BRICS and ASEAN groups are at the forefront of challenging the US dollar’s status.

Developing countries fear U.S. sanctions could hurt their economies and, therefore, want to strengthen their local currencies and economies. The de-dollarization efforts are in full swing in 2023, and nearly two dozen countries want to ditch the U.S. dollar.

Two different alliances have officially agreed to ditch the U.S. dollar for global trade in 2023. In March 2023, the ASEAN bloc was the first to decide not to use the U.S. dollar for cross-border transactions. The leaders of 10 Southeast Asian nations signed a declaration to stop using the U.S. dollar and promote their local currencies instead.



Additionally, the BRICS alliance concluded to stop settling international trade using the U.S. dollar at the summit in August this year. BRICS will use local currencies for trade and is also looking to create a common currency among member nations. The trade will be settled within the existing bloc of 10 countries and not with other nations outside the alliance.

All this means is war. Remember when Libya tried to ditch the US dollar to trade in oil in 2011? Or when Iraq tried to use the Euro to sell oil in 2003? Invasion every time.

I dont know much about economy but sounds smart. Why should they base theyr economy on foreign currency. Especially one of a country that is not theyr very close ally.

If they ever want to compete with the economic power of USA they have to build theyr own shit

I don't believe this will end in just a war !Only underdeveloped countries want to develop into 1st world countries, that's not anti-American anti-NATO ,Anti-Union European at all. There is always room for change in global geopolitics, no matter how much SWIFT rules the world for several years there are spaces for change.


The countries that have a direct fight with the USA are only Russia and China, both of which are part of the BRICS and are direct enemies of the USA, but other BRICS countries have nothing against the USA. BRICS is just a bloc of economic interests between countries that do business with each other, not military.But it is worth mentioning that Russia and China could join and become a military bloc to guarantee the internal security of the countries involved, I don't know what will happen, I'm just following what is happening, it is still too early to say anything, it will not dethrone the American dollar overnight. Russia and China and Middle Eastern countries really want this. But other countries they only aim for socio-economic growth and to isolate themselves from Western sanctions and geopolitics.

I hope you don't discuss politics at family gatherings. It's a great way to start a fight.

But yeah I don't think it's going to start a war either. There has been a plan for some time for The US to ditch the dollar and move to the Amero (joint currency with Canada and Mexico with other Latin American countries joining). There's more to it than a shared currency and it has some major sovereignity issues as well.

The US Dollar will collapse whether or not other countries are trading oil with US Dollars. All this is doing is speeding up the inevitable.

The only thing backing the US dollar is the ability of the US military to destroy the F out of you if you do not trade oil in US dollars.

The US dollar(petro dollar) is the worlds reserve currency. Whilst it will eventually crash(as all fiat currencies do) it will be replaced with another form of currency. Perhaps a digital currency controlled by the one world government and a social credit score that will eventually lead to the mark of the beast.

I'll give you an A- for accuracy. There's a crash in the system after the one world system is formed that leads up to the final events.. But from what I've read and believe. You're very close in this aspect.

I'm just speculating as whilst we know the ending, we don't really know how it will come about.

Um, if you can count to 7, there's a lot of information to be gleaned.
I won't go into it here. But I'll just throw that information out there.

Brazil has just created a digital currency called DREX, it will be the new Brazilian Real and will be launched in 2024. But one news I bring is that Brazil created a bank for the BRICS that will work from 2024.

Corrupt Lula put Dilma in charge of this bank that will be the global south. As a Christian, I also find these movements strange,It seems like everything in the Bible is being fulfilled

Anybody remember how the long term value of gold collapsed when countries moved away from the gold standard? I mean, gold isn't worth anything now, right?

Wait, what? It is trading near two thousand United States Dollars per ounce? Hmm....

Yes. It dropped but created a new "floor" around $1920 per troy ounce. Silver has followed a similar pattern, albeit at a lower price per troy ounce. Hopefully, the new resistance point will be above $2k per troy ounce for gold and close to $26 per troy ounce for silver.

We don't keep a huge amount of our assets in previous metals, but we do have some. You know how it is, nothing is worth more than the buyers will pay.

I stress troy ounce because yesterday, an idiot at work tried to argue that there was no difference between a troy ounce and an imperial ounce. I had to show him that there's about 2.75 grams more in a troy ounce.
