BRICS Countries Launch Gold-Backed Digital Currency "Unit"
BlockBeats News, December 8th, according to Intellinews citing the Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences (IRIAS), the BRICS group has launched a working prototype of a gold-backed trade currency called "Unit." This is a digital trading instrument backed by a reserve basket containing 40% physical gold and 60% BRICS national currencies, with equal weights of the Brazilian Real, Chinese Yuan, Indian Rupee, Russian Ruble, and South African Rand. The pilot project was initiated by IRIAS, which issued 100 Units on October 31st, with each Unit initially pegged to 1 gram of gold. Although this initiative has not yet become official policy, its existence is a direct step towards de-dollarization. The value of "Unit" is designed to fluctuate daily based on the trend of the component currencies against gold. As of December 4th, market fluctuations have adjusted the value of the reserve basket to equivalent to 98.23 grams of gold, effectively bringing the value of each unit to 0.9823 grams of gold.
