BRICS

BRICS doesn't harm the U.S. as much as some think. They just want a currency that's on the gold standard. The U.S. has some of the largest gold reserves in the world. Both in storage and in the ground.
Gold standard currency wouldn't harm the U.S. anymore than it would anyone else. Probably much less.

I say bring it on. But just know, if these countries implement a currency to use other than the USD, they will make an economic enemy of the U.S. Every country in BRICS depends on the U.S. in some way. If it was simple, and was a net positive for them, they would have already done it. They've been bluffing to ditch the USD for years.
