News Date: September 18, 2020

Peter Schiff said he thinks we are about to see a gold bull market rivaling the 1970s because the world is going to reject the dollar standard and go back to a gold standard.
Ray Dalio:Within the next five years you could see a situation in which foreigners who have been lending money to the United States wont want to, and the dollar would not be as readily accepted for making purchases in the world as it is now.

BRICS plans an alternative to the IMF

Russia has urged its BRICS partners to establish an alternative to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to counteract political pressure from Western nations. This proposal comes as BRICS finance ministers and central bank officials gather in Moscow.
Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov, hosting the meeting, emphasized that the global financial system is dominated by Western countries.
He called for the group, which represents 37% of the global economy, to create a financial institution independent of Western control.
"The IMF and the World Bank are not performing their roles. They are not working in the interests of BRICS countries;
It is necessary to form new conditions or even new institutions, similar to the Bretton Woods institutions, but within the framework of our community, within the framework of BRICS," Siluanov said on the first day of the meeting.

Ramaswamy supports Trump and commodity-backed currency

Billionaire entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy claims BRICS is developing a gold-backed currency to replace the U.S. dollar as the world's primary reserve currency.
"This is a major problem for the United States.
This would permanently increase our borrowing cost if the dollar is no longer the established reserve currency of the world.
So yes, actually, that does matter. The right way to deal with it, though, is not to try to swat that down, but increase the value proposition of the dollar itself by pegging the dollar to hard commodities," he stated in a press conference.
Vivek Ramaswamy dropped out of the presidential race and endorsed Donald Trump. Known for supporting currencies backed by commodities, his alliance with Trump suggests a shared vision for economic stability and challenges to traditional fiat systems.

Banks Are Restocking Gold

Banks Are Restocking Gold at Fastest Pace in Years.
The Comex vaults have been steadily depleted over the last several months, however, 1.6M ounces of gold just showed up since March 1.
This is the largest inflow since October 2020 and we are only halfway through March!
This may be simply a restock of the metal lost in Jan and Feb.
It's also possible this is being used to support the massive delivery volume being seen in the historically quiet month of March.
But a third possibility is that the banks are preparing for massive delivery volume in April.

Fed testing FooWire blockchain with Hyperledger

Federal Reserve detailed FooWire distributed ledger experiment designed to test whether the technology is suited for payments application.
The team built the system using Hyperledger Fabric, a popular DLT platform, because it generally met the team's design requirements of a closed network, mature technology, and enterprise readiness. The experiment highlighted the potential of DLT for certain payment uses, the quick speed with which a system could be implemented, the potential simplicity of smart contracts, and the range of functionality offered by such platforms. It further highlighted the need for more experimentation to better understand the possibilities for wide-scale adoption and use of any DLT platform for payments.
