And 2 months ago Matt Riley joined me on the show to talk about 'the Unit,' which is a proposal for a payment settlement currency that would include a 40% gold backing.Today Matt returns to the show and provides an update on how the plan is evolving ahead of the BRICS October meeting, and whether he expects an announcement at that meeting. We also talk about whether a successful Unit would ultimately force the west to put some sort of collateral behind their own currencies, and whether he expects people to front-run the move if the plan continues to progress and eventually become more public.
