Banks must now report cash withdrawals or deposits of $10,000 or more. Furthermore, banks must report to the government any financial behavior on your part it arbitrarily deems \"suspicious\" or \"unusual.\" The World Economic Forum and World Bank are touting the creation of an international digital currency, an increasing number of businesses and venues in the U.S. have become \"cashless\" and the devaluation of the dollar has been in full swing in recent years. Swiss America CEO Dean Heskin says we need to be aware of the campaign against cash due to current and coming policies and prepare for what is to come through our podcast, THE SECRET WAR ON CASH, powered by Swiss America.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-15T08:20:22.976464+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-secret-war-on-cash-6603370"},"episode":{"title":"BRICS' 5-Step Plan to Replace the Dollar","slug":"brics-5-step-plan-to-replace-the-dollar","published_at":"2026-03-14T12:05:02+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-secret-war-on-cash-6603370/brics-5-step-plan-to-replace-the-dollar","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-secret-war-on-cash-6603370","url":"https://www.spreaker.com/episode/brics-5-step-plan-to-replace-the-dollar--70597840","audio_url":"https://api.spreaker.com/download/episode/70597840/secret_war_on_cash_ep_255_a.mp3","summary":"Is the world moving away from the U.S. dollar? In this episode of The Secret War on Cash , Dean Heskin and Chris Agelastos explore growing efforts by BRICS nations to reduce reliance on the U.S. dollar in global trade. China is promoting the internationalization of the yuan , while BRICS members continue building financial infrastructure designed to support local currency trade, alternative payment systems, and potentially a shared BRICS currency . At the same time, major trading partners such as Russia and China are already conducting much of their commerce using local currencies instead of dollars , highlighting the broader shift toward de-dollarization . Dean and Chris discuss: • China’s strategy to expand the yuan globally • The five major pillars of the BRICS monetary strategy • Why some countries say they support the dollar while quietly reducing their reliance on it • How these trends could affect global markets and the U.S. economy As global financial power shifts, understanding these developments may be critical for investors and anyone following the future of the international monetary system. 📞 Learn more by calling 800-289-2646 🌐 https://www.swissamerica.com","meta_description":"Is the world moving away from the U.S. dollar?
