What Does Zimbabwe New 100% Gold Currency Mean for the Future of Africa
Zimbabwe back on the gold standard
The world over, central banks moved away from gold-backed currencies. All preferring the fiat currencies that they can print to their hearts’ content.
While Zimbabwe is not moving back to a gold-backed ZW$, the gold coins are actually better than that scenario. With gold coins we don’t have to
worry about whether or not there really is gold in a vault somewhere. We will be holding the gold in our hands. So, with the commitment to a
multicurrency regime and gold coins, there is something to love in the latest measures taken by the government to fix the economy [SIZE=4]of Zimbabwe[/SIZE]
Note. It’s another fiat currency if the quantity of the gold coins in supply is not capped and the value of the gold in the gold coin is less than the fiat value.
Imagine all the dollars heading back to the US because they are useless toilet papers to the rest of the world!

Congress passed a resolution to make Russia state sponsor of terror. The US foreign Minister refused it. Since it could have made any country that does business with Russia to face sanction. The countries that does business with Russia could have shifted from dollar transaction to rubles. Ditch western financial institutions the dollar could have lost its status as a reserve currency. Hizo dollar zote zingerudi kwao wazitumie ka tissue paper.
They are overdoing the sanction card and cheapeninng the terrorism designation . Sasa designating Russia or Cuba or North Korea state sponsors of terror imekua a political gimmick more than a serious accusation.
Money is not something to afford per say but something to earn. It’s a product of labour in simple terms. For example, if till your land you pay me with a gold coin.
Help me understand,1 Z gold coin = 1800 $ (USD)…a teacher, for example, in Zimbabwe earns 120- 200$ a month…a casual laborer I’m sure earns less. Do you now see why I asked that question ?
It means going back to the gold standard. If you have a certain amount of currency you can exchange it for gold at a price set by the government. It does not mean people will physically use gold coins but it will be used to back the currency.
