    I'm sorry but I kinda love it. It's got bright colours. Also money should look shit, not cool. You should be made to feel like a dork if you're carrying around a wad.

      Sometimes they use traditional hanzi for fancy things I've noticed.

      Someotimes I think they do it just to make me despair

    Alright come on, they can do better than that design. Way too much going on and the bright colors of the flags are way too jarring compared to the subdued colors of the rest of the note.

    That said, very interesting development!

    BRICS currency would be a godsend but respectfully that looks fucking awful. It's like 50% as bad as that terrible rejected EU flag that just had every flag stretched out.

    But the fact that people in BRICS are even talking about a united currency is crazy. It really shows that the dollar is no longer the be all and end all of international trade and finance. 10 years ago, for countries like India and South Africa to even be in an organization where this is considered would be unthinkable.

    Over the past few years, BRICS has catapulted from a trading bloc to a serious political force. The BRICS account on Twitter was calling it the "BRICS alliance", which is some loaded language. It's clear that there is a desire for a real counterweight to the west ever since the fall of the Soviet Union, and BRICS is finally stepping up to fill that role

    Objectively messy from a graphic design perspective. But doesn't have any sex pests or genociders on it, so that's a plus, I guess?

    Currency design really has a low bar!
