BRICS Blockchain will Swiftly Replace the US dollar
Trip Bitten: 3-14-2024
Russia just announced the creation of blockchain-based payment system in BRICS. This new system will help BRICS nations bypass SWIFT and help create a new trading currency.
I talked about this in the past and now we are seeing the BRICS take action. I think it will be built out over the next few years and will provide many nations with another option for international trade and payments.
