TL;DR Summary

The BRICS nations (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) are reportedly considering creating a new currency to facilitate trade, which could be announced as soon as August when the countries meet for their annual summit in South Africa. The move is part of a larger trend towards de-dollarisation, which aims to reduce the US dollar's dominance in global markets. If the BRICS nations do create a new currency, it could help stabilize their economies and lead to increased consumer confidence and economic growth. However, it remains to be seen whether India will accept the new currency and whether the plan will actually come to fruition.
