54 sats \ 13 replies \ @Satosora 5 Jan \ on: China devalues yuan by leaps and bounds econ

Wont this ruin their brics deal? They need to have a certain amount of currency in reserve, but if it is worthless, how will they be able to make the borrowing work? Seems like brics will be falling next.

Everyone involved in brics is crooked. So how would they keep a stable currency? Even during the first meeting they didnt want to make a combined currency, which I thought was funny. Wasnt that the whole point of brics?

At least with bitcoin, you know the other guy wont stab you in the back. They need to figure out something similar, or just use bitcoin. Would bitcoin become stronger because of their involvement, or would people pull out?
