Over the past few years, there have been many rumors about a coming globalcurrency-300x2831 currency, but at times it has been difficult to pin down evidence that plans for such a currency are actually in the works but not anymore.  A shocking new report by the IMF is proposing just that ? a global currency beyond national control! @A Financial Site For Sore Eyes & Inquisitive Minds Words: 820

The article goes on to say in further edited excerpts:

More on the Proposed New Global Currency

The IMF recommended on April 13, 2010 that the world adopt a global currency called the ?Bancor? and that a global central bank be established to administer that currency. This is not hype and it is not a rumor. This is a very serious proposal in an official document from one of the mega-powerful institutions that is actually running the world economy. Anyone who follows the IMF knows that what the IMF wants, the IMF usually gets. So could a global currency known as the ?Bancor? be on the horizon? That is now a legitimate question.

So where in the world did the name ?Bancor? for a global currency come from? Well, it turns out that ?Bancor? is the name of a hypothetical world currency unit once suggested by John Maynard Keynes. Keynes was a world famous British economist who headed the World Banking Commission that created the IMF during the Breton Woods negotiations and the IMF report referenced above proposed naming the coming world currency unit the ?Bancor? in honor of Keynes.

So what about Special Drawing Rights (SDRs)? Over the past couple of years, SDRs have been touted as the coming global currency. Well, the report does envision making SDRs ?the principal reserve asset? as we move towards a global currency unit?.However, the report also acknowledges that SDRs do have some serious limitations. Since the value of SDRs are made up of a basket of currencies ? U.S. dollar (44%); Euro (34%);  Yen (11%); Pound (11%) ? so anything affecting those currencies will affect SDRs as well.

The IMF report recognizes that moving to SDRs is only a partial move away from the U.S. dollar as the world reserve currency and urges the adoption of a currency unit that would be truly international. The truth is that SDRs are clumsy and cumbersome. For now, SDRs must still be reconverted back into a national currency before they can be used, and that really limits their usefulness according to the report?.so the IMF report believes that the adoption of a true global currency administered by a global central bank is the answer [to the shortcomings of the SDRs].

The authors of the report believe that it would be ideal if the ?Bancor? would immediately be used as currency by many nations throughout the world, but they also acknowledge that a more ?realistic? approach would be for the ?Bancor? to circulate alongside national currencies at first.

A global central bank would print and administer the ?Bancor?. It would be something like the Federal Reserve, only completely outside the control of any particular national government.

Is that what we really need ? a world currency administered by an international central bank modeled after the Federal Reserve? Not at all! The Federal Reserve has devalued the U.S. dollar by over 95 percent since it was created and the U.S. government has accumulated the largest debt in the history of the world under this system ? so now we want to impose such a system on the entire globe? [I think not!] Considering how disastrous the Federal Reserve system and other central banking systems around the world have been, why would anyone suggest that we go to a global central banking system modeled after the Federal Reserve?

Conclusion

A global currency (whether it be called the ?Bancor? or given a different name entirely) would be a major blow to national sovereignty and would represent a major move towards global government. The truth is, however, that there are some very powerful interests that are absolutely determined to create a global currency and a global central bank for the global economy that we now live in.

It would be a major mistake to think a global currency can?t happen

On the way home from breakfast this morning, MrsMac and I was listening to a preacher broadcasted on the radio from a local church. The sermon was about The Great Reset and Satan's desire to bring all the peoples of the world under one government, currency, and if possible language - Certainly, one message.

To my small covid brain fog, I think we have seen this playout several times in the history of man on this earth. Each time, God has succeeded in defeating evil.

Based on what we are seeing coming out of our government, here and around the world, I suspect we are seeing the two foes of evil Vs. good line up again with each other. Good will win in the end however, will it take 1 to 2-years, decade, or century to defeat evil? Being of the mindset that I want immediate gratification, I certainly hope during a shorter timeframe rather then the longer.

Sorry Nemo for going off on a tangent. It just struck me that part of a sermon I heard in the car today touched on your post. Pleasantly struck me, as the message I have been trying to get across to people was being expanded to others.

That was very interesting. It lends itself to all manner of NON-MONEY transactions. The notion of Digital Currency was only spoken of behind closed doors but lately, It is being tossed around as if its already exists and we damned well better get used to it. They can call it whatever they want but it will always come down to what the Futuristic Sci-Fi movies call it. "CREDITS." The SHEEPLE will fall right in line and put their faith in the DIGITAL CREDITS but others, who are more informed, will use a dual monetary system. They will play along with the CREDITS thing only when they have no other option but will Barter or use Precious Metals for other transactions. If I am to be paid in CREDITS, then I'll spend any left over CREDITS on buying Silver and Gold and even Barterable Goods. What exactly does all this mean? It means they can kiss my ass.

Talking about it on (unknowingly) on Fox News this am.  One host mentioned he lost his wallet.  Others were asking why he bothered with one, telling him all he needed was his phone.

I wonder how citizens of a third world country would use digital currency? Smartphone?

"Barterable Goods" - Value is tangible.
Am I exaggerating to say "money" is only a representation of value?
  It's just a lot of fancy "Wampum"?
 Well, I reckon full faith and credit is utterly dependent on stability.   And as we all know, stability is a "sometimes" condition.  It has never been and never will be a permanence.
Beans, bullets and beer = true wealth.
The rest is illusionary, enjoy, use, don't be trapped by.
(and yes, trapped by degrees to pensions, 401k, SS, etc)

Perfect Felix.

As the economy started to get out of control in Germany during the Weimar Republic, folks bought tangible items to secure their wealth, e.g. Pianos, painting's, diamonds, refrigerators, clothing, etc.

I like precious metals but, you can not eat PM's. Should you have some as part of your preps - Sure; However, do not obsess over buying PM's instead focus on tangible consumables. Tractor, rakes, shovels, freeze dryer, mason jars & extra seals, ham radio, chain saw, cow, horse, etc, etc, etc.

Remember, the seller of an item sets the value of PM's. If you need something bad enough, you will pay what the seller demands.

Might add band aids and bullion to that.

"Might add band aids and bullion to that."  -  Nemo

Funny you should mention...

I've squirreled away a couple of 5 gallon buckets for giving away or transportable from home supplies.  And yes, included with the beans and rice are:  Band-Aids, small tubes of antibiotic, Bic lighters AND bullion.   :-)
