The U.S. Government and Federal Reserve are fighting against cash on many fronts. 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.

The de-dollarization is not merely isolated to one or two groups. Several international economic alliances have been looking toward ways to move away from the dollar whether it would be as bold a move as BRICS' previous plans to create its own currency or simply using local currencies for transactions within each circle. This all comes in response to the systematically-weakened dollar due to policy moves and excessive printing of money over the past two decades. Where is the de-dollarization movement now and how strong is it? Swiss America's Dean Heskin and Chris Agalestos explore this on The Secret War on Cash. Call for your FREE copy of The Secret War on Cash newsletter: (800) 289-2646 orVisit our website for more information: https://www.swissamerica.comCall for your FREE copy of How the Coming Global Crash Will Create a Historic Gold Rush: (480) 548-2975Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/swissamerica/Follow us on X (Twitter): @Swiss_AmericaFollow us on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/1023049Articles referred to in this podcaste-Dollarization: US Dollar’s Share in Global Reserves Fall Below 58%https://watcher.guru/news/de-dollarization-us-dollars-share-in-global-reserves-fall-below-58De-Dollarization: 6 Global Alliances Race to Ditch the US Dollarhttps://watcher.guru/news/de-dollarization-6-global-alliances-race-to-ditch-the-us-dollar
