BRICS To Use Gold To Challenge US Dollar
The growingly popular BRICS alliance has continued to grow in numbers and support over the past year. In August 2023, the alliance agreed to expand its total members in 2024. Furthermore, the bloc announced the development of a new currency. This BRICS currency will be driven to fully ditch the US dollar in trade and usher in a new era.
The currency is expected to be backed by gold, a precious metal sought after by BRICS nations since the announcement. With gold on the rise, the precious metal is bullish and will be a battlefield for the West’s US Dollar and BRICS moving forward.

The precious metal is becoming evermore so precious, and will likely be a setting for a standoff between BRICS and the US dollar for some time.

In a world where both BRICS and GOLD are bullish, the US dollar is at risk. As the bloc continues to fight the greenback, the precious metal as an asset
