To sideline the US dollar in favor of local currencies for international trade. This move, spearheaded predominantly by China, is gaining momentum as it woos other developing nations to jump on the bandwagon.<\/p>\n<p>The strategy involves persuading countries like Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Russia, India, and some African nations to switch from the US dollar to local currencies like the Chinese Yuan for bilateral trade settlements.<\/p>\n<p>China\u2019s persuasive tactics have been successful to some extent. &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Simultaneously, Russia, another key player in the BRICS alliance, is circumventing US sanctions by offering crude oil at discounted rates to developing countries, insisting on payments in either the Chinese Yuan or the Russian Ruble.<\/p>\n<p>India, not to be left behind, is fostering new trade agreements with nations like the UAE, advocating for the Indian Rupee over the US dollar in global trade dealings.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span id=\"BRICS_and_Its_Currency_Powerplay\">BRICS and Its Currency Powerplay<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The underlying strategy of these BRICS nations is clear: elevate their local currencies to a stature that challenges, if not replaces, the dominance of the US dollar in global trade. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cryptopolitan.com\/brics-concrete-plan-to-ditch-usd-in-trade\/\">https:\/\/www.cryptopolitan.com\/brics-concrete-plan-to-ditch-usd-in-trade\/<\/a><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"cs-entry__title\">BRICS: De-Dollarization Gaining Steam in Developing Countries<\/h2>\n<p>November 26, 2023<\/p>\n<p>When BRICS announced this year that they plan to dethrone the US dollar from the global reserve currency status, nobody took their ideals seriously. The alliance has now walked the talk and slowly changed the global financial dynamics one step at a time. Though the pace of de-dollarization is slow, BRICS are marching on the path of ditching the US dollar and putting their local currencies forward. &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>BRICS could slowly chip away at the global dominance of the US dollar. As years pass by, BRICS will sign more trade agreements adding new countries to settle payments in local currencies. While they\u2019re not attacking the US dollar upfront, they are moving in stealth and pulling the carpet under America\u2019s feet. <a href=\"https:\/\/watcher.guru\/news\/brics-de-dollarization-gaining-steam-in-developing-countries\">https:\/\/watcher.guru\/news\/brics-de-dollarization-gaining-steam-in-developing-countries<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It is NOT true to say nobody took BRICS&#8217; plans seriously. I and others did. Related to BRICS and the USA dollar, notice the following which is in my book <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cogwriter.com\/LostTribes.pdf\">Lost Tribes and Prophecies:\u00a0What will happen to Australia, the British Isles, Canada, Europe, New Zealand and the United States of America?<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Those in Iran and some of the Arab lands, along with nations such as Brazil, China, and India have discussed plans for the removal of the dominance of the U.S.A. in global trade as well. The former (again current) President of Brazil, Luiz In\u00e1cio Lula da Silva, even claimed that eliminating the U.S. dollar\u2019s reserve currency status was one of the reasons that the BRICS alliance (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) was formed in the first place. <a href=\"#_edn1\" name=\"_ednref1\">[i]<\/a> Others have\u00a0 noted that bypassing the USA dollar is still an object of BRICS\u2014and officially BRICS nations \u201care currently working on setting up a new global reserve currency,\u201d<a href=\"#_edn2\" name=\"_ednref2\">[ii]<\/a> which may have gold-backing.<a href=\"#_edn3\" name=\"_ednref3\">[iii]<\/a> The expansion of BRICS (which is in progress) may ultimately even hurt Australian trade as well as \u201cseverely weaken primacy of the US Dollar as an international currency.\u201d<a href=\"#_edn4\" name=\"_ednref4\">[iv]<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Bible clearly warns against cheapening the money supply and encourages having money hold its value (Proverbs 25:4 Isaiah 1:25, Ezekiel 22:18-22). Debt is also warned against (Habakkuk 2:6-8). Yet policies enacted under the Obama, Trump, and Biden Administrations, following certain other administrations, have ignored these warnings. &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>A modern reality is that being the world\u2019s <em>de facto <\/em>reserve currency has helped prolong the U.S.A.\u2019s dominance.<\/p>\n<p>When the U.S. dollar is no longer the world\u2019s reserve currency, this will hurt the U.S.A. financially. Increasing debt, including \u201cquantitative easing,\u201d is a form of dishonest profits that is not something that God approves of and will correctively punish the U.S.A. for (cf. Ezekiel 22:13-16).<\/p>\n<p>Inflation will eventually hit the U.S.A. extremely hard. As the world becomes less attached to the American dollar, many financial jobs and opportunities will be in places other than the U.S.A. Eventually, but not yet, the U.S.A. dollar will become worthless (worth no more than the scrap or sentimental value of the cotton-paper it is printed on).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"#_ednref1\" name=\"_edn1\">[i]<\/a> Escobar P.

The sectors include banking, trade, forex, and tourism, among others. The U.S. financial sectors that could be affected if BRICS ditch the U.S. dollar are:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Global Financial System<\/li>\n<li>Banking and Finance<\/li>\n<li>Energy and Commodity Markets<\/li>\n<li>International Trade and Investment<\/li>\n<li>Capital Markets<\/li>\n<li>Consumer Goods and Retail<\/li>\n<li>Production and Consumption<\/li>\n<li>Technology and Fintech<\/li>\n<li>Government and Policy<\/li>\n<li>Travel and Tourism<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Moreover, all the 10 sectors are closely linked to the U.S. economy and could have complications if the dollar loses demand. The banking sector could take the first hit that might eventually spill over to the markets.<\/p>\n<p>Once the financial markets are hit, the domino effect could roll over to all sectors leading to a financial catastrophe. In conclusion, if the U.S. fails to fund its deficit, prices of all commodities could skyrocket or even reach hyperinflation. 10\/04\/23 <a href=\"https:\/\/watcher.guru\/news\/10-u-s-sectors-to-be-affected-if-brics-stops-using-the-dollar\">https:\/\/watcher.guru\/news\/10-u-s-sectors-to-be-affected-if-brics-stops-using-the-dollar<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The USA, with its debt, sanctions policies, forcing international financial reporting, and weaponization of its dollar, is setting itself up for hyperinflation.<\/p>\n<p>Although BRICS will not dominate the world economically like the coming European Beast power will (cf.
