This is why they're proposing a Brics currency, a currency every member state have a stake in.

No more currency monopoly.

So any currency they come up with, no one member state can dictate it.

The European union have Euros, but ended up being vassals of the US, so they caged themselves.
They've been planning this "new currency" for many years. If it's as straightforward as you implied, they would have done it long ago. But apparently they haven't.

I am trying to understand why they are finding it hard to agree on a common currency for global trades.

And what makes you think China especially will not start calling shots and dictating things to BRICS members? Give them enough time and ultimate power and you will see

I know but blockchain is the technology in which most cryptocurrency are built on

Countries tried creating theirs and still creating. nigeria even created hers called eNaira but how successful was it?

People would rather go for what the govt can't control.

I think fiat money can still be used but must not be controlled by one of few people.

Secondly, fiat currencies should be pegged to natural resources like gold, silver, diamond and the likes.
And we're back to the same initial problem.

Which fiat currency could they use that can successfully replace USD for global trades? Personally, I see none.

If they tried Rubles, other nations apart from Russia will complain. Same thing with Yuan, Rupee, Real, Rand etc.

What other options do you think are possible?

Countries all over the world need someone the government can control as a means of payment.

If the so called "democratic" nations can't requinish the control of their currencies for bitcoin, why do you expect the "non democratic" ones to adopt BTC that can't be controlled by anyone?
Not necessarily BTC, as I said.

BTC is just one amongst thousands of cryptocurrencies.

They could create a whole new cryptocurrency that fits the criteria of what they want in a currency ie complete control.

Or perhaps getting an alternative USD is something that's not meant to be.

Abi.

I am hoping and praying the BRIC currency comes to life

Wealth must be equally shared amongst Nations of the world.

No more Master and Servant relationships when it comes to global politics.
Can't they use bitcoin?

Or at least create a stablecoin cryptocurrency based on the average of all the respective currencies of the members. Just a suggestion.

The cryptocurrency should not domiciled or tied to any single nation or fiat currency. It could be programmed to have limited printability like BTC.

Make this nuclear war begin oooo, I'm tired of the EU and American idiots talking too much. If Russia, EU, UK and USA plus Canada are obliterated, in nuclear ash...the world will be in peace for sometime. Enough of the threats...let the war begin... NATO should immediately move their forces into Ukraine and start bombing Russians...let all hell lose..it will be a wonderful sight in this our lifetime.
In a nuclear war, there would be no winners. Everybody loses.

"The big bully the small, the strong abuse the weak, and the rich oppress the poor... this kind of behavior that goes against the tide of our times will be RUTHLESSLY CRUSHED by the wheels of history."
True. The same way Hong Kong, Taiwan and any small nation who recognizes Taiwan are being bullied.

It's a matter of time before they themselves become on a global scale what they criticise today.

They are forming humility currently because they don't have the ultimate global power.

Hamas broke a truce few months ago. There reason was israel should be destroyed.. Why can't you prohamas folks just think straight
If it's purely military or political conflict, people supporting either sides would think straight. But with religion mixed into it, don't expect any straight thinking, especially from pro-hamas. To them, destroying the Jews is a divine mandate. While religion-blinded Israeli supporters don't care for the victims of this war - innocent Palestinians, whom Hamas unfortunately used as human shield.

I hope both sides reach a permanent ceasefire agreement soon.

When Russia docked it nukes in Cuba didnt they made US paranoid to the extent of starting another war?

Yes, USA was paranoid during Cuba crisis. And yes, Russia is currently paranoid it might be broken up by the West. Those are facts.

🌍 Dodik: the West had a plan to divide Russia into five parts

❗️ The plan to divide Russia into five parts was invented by the West, Russian President Vladimir Putin understood the trends and took the lead in the fight for the national interests of his country. This was stated by the President of the Republika Srpska Milorad Dodik on the sidelines of the SPIEF.

📝 “20 years ago the West was simply training in Yugoslavia, so that years later they could do the same thing in Russia, wanting to get closer to Russia as much as possible, having occupied Ukraine completely, so that further stages to divide Russia. We know about the existence of such a proposal: to divide Russia into five parts. They learned to do this in many parts of the world, and finally they came here. They thought they could do it,” he noted.

⚡Bosnia and Herzegovina to split up?

Milorad Dodik confirmed that a referendum on independence and actual secession from Bosnia will be held in the Republika Srpska.

The decision on the referendum has already been made, and preparations are now underway for its holding.

The date of the referendum will be announced later.
They should find a way to split peacefully and not have a repeat of what happened in 1992-1995.

The WAR against hamas is not a conventional type of warfare, asymmetric warfare is being fought in Gaza, an insurgent type of warfare, even the best and most advanced military will struggle against such a type of foe.
The USA strode against the Iraqi army the largest and advanced military at that time in the middle East,but struggled against the Taliban in Afghanistan

The Soviet union fought well against the greatness modern fighting force the NAZI Germans in ww2 and prevail, yet struggle and conceded defeat against the mujahedeen in Afghanistan

The USA fought the Japanese in the pacific and prevail, yet lost a war against a guerrilla north Vietnam army

The Nigeria amry was instrumental in the liberation of Liberia, yet is struggling against boko haram

This was what the Ukrainian did during the early stages of the war against Russia, hiding from buildings and using portable anti tank weapons and hitting Russia tanks and armoured vehicles

An insurgent type of warfare is not a easy task, very complex and difficult to undertake and complete

You have to understand the failings of the iDF.

If I were Putin I would announce that Russia has given permission to Houthis and other radical groups to strike deep inside US mainland and NATO countries.

But like Putin said, Russia has it's own special plans for Ukraine and all these talks of striking inside Russia is just to distract or deviate them from the plan.
As if Houthis and other terrorists need Russia permission to strike USA mainland 😂😂😂

If they could, they would.
And if they dare, all gloves come off.... and off they go to meet their imaginary virgins.
