source:When Will the BRICS Currency Be Released? Plans and Potential ImpactSpeculations about the BRICS nations pondering over a gold-backed currency have been rife. However, this idea currently isn't the primary focus. The volatile nature of gold prices poses a challenge for it to serve as a steady foundation for such a currency.

Whenever that will be 🙄369 said:
Once there will be an offical announcement of the start of the BRICS currency gold and silver will have a BIG run.
However before that run there could be a last final coordinated sell by central banks

Indian would take the BRICS curreny any time but they are receiving now a lot of love from USA so they would be stupid to declare them as enemy.They are riding the train in the middle of both groups to get benefits from both sides.backpacker said:

Even if it will happen at some point in the very distant future, who would want to trust such a currency, considering the current and potential future members of this "organization".
Btw., Not even it's own founding members are united when it comes to "de-dollarization" -> De-dollarization still a long way off, Indian minister says after BRICS talk of a common currency

You don't understand the mechanics behind it.meze99 said:
It is highly unlikely that there could be a so-called BRICS currency that would be trusted and used by many people or banks. The reason is simple: dictators don't trust anyone, including other dictators, so to agree upon something so important as a common currency can take ages. Even EU countries in the recent years returned home their gold reserves, so you can forget about gold backed currency. Anyway a currency that claims to be backed by gold but doesn't mint physical gold coins like sovereigns is a scam.

You really don't understand the mechanics.meze99 said:
So countries are going to exchange their physical gold for a currency that is backed up by nothing, but they will be so happy to do so anyway because a bunch of dictators would claim their currency better than US dollar? This is nuts.

Yep, the outlook looks uncertain 🙄 Even if it materializes in the distant future, putting faith in such a currency with existing and potential members is still a matter of concern. suspect.backpacker said:

But the article doesn't tell you that who they purchased it from exchanged the Rupees back to USD via a Forward Rate Agreement that they agreed at the same time as the Rupee for Oil agreement. Too much one-sided propaganda around BRICS.369 said:

BRICS are creating a market.Currently Russia has tons of rupees they got for selling their oil to india which they can't spent all on curcuma 😀 so there needs to be some countries added with diffrent products and needs so every currency can have in the end a considered even balance

You can't establish a fully working market with no USD involved in a single day.polonieth said:
