The FED and central banks have been using a system designed to rip everyone off so its no shocker they are about to go under. The BRICS nations have a leg up to take over as the worlds reserves with a new gold backed currency as it stands now. I dont know if gold will go to 5000 per ounce, people have seen saying that forever, but its a good idea to trade your paper money for some especially now. The digital currency could bring about high gold prices, but i think the more likely scenario is for America to lose its status as the worlds reserve currency. The digital currency they talk about is just a digital version of the same failing system. It aint going to save anyone or help at all. And the digital money system we use now its not a digital money system at all actually. We store our physical money in a bank to make it easier to use with cards and computers. But it is still physical money that we can hold, hide and make paper airplanes out of. It will be ugly if they try to go all digital.
