"Good heavens, potatoes are worth more than gold!"

"Surely not!"

"If you were shipwrecked on a desert island, what would you prefer, a bag of potatoes or a bag of gold?"

"Yes, but a desert island isn't Ankh-Morpork!"

"And that proves gold is only valuable because we agree it is, right? It's just a dream. But a potato is always worth a potato, anywhere. Add a knob of butter and a pinch of salt and you've got a meal, anywhere. Bury gold in the ground and you'll be worrying about thieves forever. Bury a potato and in due season you could be looking at a dividend of a thousand percent."

Terry Pratchett, Making Money

Australia is removing the British monarchy from its banknotes.

Australia’s central bank announced Thursday that it will not be replacing the image of the late Queen Elizabeth II on its $5 bill with an image of King Charles III.

The new bill will instead feature an Indigenous design that honours the island’s original inhabitants.

“The Reserve Bank has decided to update the $5 banknote to feature a new design that honours the culture and history of the First Australians,” Australia’s bank wrote in a press release. “This new design will replace the portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.”

The reverse side of the bill will continue to feature the Australian Parliament, the bank said.

King Charles is still expected to appear on Australia’s coin — as soon as this year — but the $5 bill was Australia’s only remaining banknote to feature an image of the British monarch.

Treasurer Jim Chalmers said the change was an opportunity to strike a good balance.

“The monarch will still be on the coins, but the $5 note will say more about our history and our heritage and our country, and I see that as a good thing,” he told reporters in Melbourne. [...]

Our New Currency Under the Quantum Financial System – Gold Backed Digital Currency (The New US Dollar )

We’ve learned from history about the old Gold Standard and so now,some believe we are setting the world up for another major letdown – again.

Nixon took us off the gold standard with the whisk of a pen. He said there were gold investors manipulating the gold prices, and that affected our currency value so he took us off the gold standard for a two-week period to let things settle down; it has lasted close to 60 years. . . 🤔
