A new [financial] system that is fast and effect - digitally. Hopefully they're talking about they're going to have to have an exchange rate to do that. A Real Effective Exchange Rate gets them across borders. From here on out a different playing field, a digital playing field. I think that's where we are. I think it's really powerful information
If you add up the oil, non-oil, tourism, all of the thing that's where they're going to be able to support the value of their exchange rate with a Real Effective Exchange Rate - Once approved by the IMF, Bank of International Settlements, The World Bank...This is really getting hot!
