Zimbabwe Launches New Gold-Backed Currency: Will it Work? | Vantage with Palki Sharma
Zimbabwe's central bank launched a new "structured currency" backed by gold. This comes as it seeks to tackle sky-high inflation and stabilise the country's long-floundering economy. The ZiG - short for Zimbabwe Gold - will replace the Zimbabwean dollar which has tumbled in value over the past year, pushing inflation through the roof. Zimbabweans have 21 days to convert their old cash into new money. But analysts have questioned the move. They ask whether the country has enough reserves to adequately back the currency, There are also doubts over volatility of gold prices. So will this new currency work? Palki Sharma tells you.

[@jimmycricket5366]

There is no confidence in those running the finances of the country. It's as simple as that. There isn't a troll or tokoloshi actively sabotaging with a mean expression on its face just out to somehow destroy all the currencies they try. Currencies are all about confidence and trust. Major trust deficit. Also a pathetic two tonnes of gold that hasn't been externally audited. Why? They could have said backed by a hundred tonnes. No difference just words. Talk, talk, talk. Useless talk.

You cannot make that claim on the basis of a few days. The currency may work so long as there is gold there and they don't start printing the currency as the solution to every problem. They will also have to check the gold reserves regularly because Zimbabwe wouldn't be the first African country to have claimed to have utilised gold in trade when non existed (Goldenberg Scandal - Kenya).

Brave move. Being the first may attract criticism, but gold is natural money. So the sooner other gold producers adopt this approach the better it will be. But we know that the masters of mankind will do all they can tho subotage that move. ❤

I don't remember any currency circulation more than Rand and USD... ruppee, nooo... I'm Zimbabwean and I don't know any of that.... we know we're struggling but that's too much to add... Rand, pula they work not much though but I places near boarders... pounds, not really circulating.... Chinese and Japanese yuan ain't circulating too...
