BRICSization Decoded: New Journal Paper Tests the Concept Using Morris Code

Forget SWIFT—academics are tapping Morse code to map a new financial world order.

Testing the BRICS Blueprint

A provocative new study isn't just analyzing economic alliances—it's stress-testing the very concept of 'BRICSization' using an unexpected tool: Morse code. The research probes how decentralized communication models could underpin a multipolar financial system, one that bypasses traditional Western hubs.

Decoding the Signal from the Noise

The paper cuts through geopolitical rhetoric to examine practical mechanics. Can alternative networks actually facilitate the trade and settlement envisioned by the BRICS bloc? The findings suggest the infrastructure challenge isn't just about currency—it's about creating resilient, low-friction channels for value transfer. After all, what's a new reserve asset without a reliable way to signal its movement?

The framework emerging from this research points to a future where financial sovereignty is built on open protocols, not closed club memberships. It's a vision that turns correspondent banking on its head—and has legacy institutions scrambling to update their own, considerably slower, firmware.

One thing's clear: the race to define the next financial architecture is on. And while diplomats talk, the real blueprint might just be written in dots and dashes. Just don't expect the usual Wall Street analysts to understand the transmission.

BRICSization of the World: How the US Dollar Could Suffer

The authors of the journal developed a BRICSization index, which is a quantitative measure to find out how independent each BRICS member is from the US dollar between 2003 and 2022. The higher the score using the Morris method, the closer they are to abandoning the US dollar.

In the BRICSization study, Brazil, China, and South Africa show readiness to ditch the US dollar. Their score comes to 93%, indicating these three can be the first to step aside from the USD. However, India and Russia lag significantly at 37%, showing that without the USD, their economies WOULD collapse.

Overall, BRICSization for the five founding members stands at 72, suggesting that de-dollarization can be a reality. The Morris code tests various combinations with different results and sequences. The journal concluded that while BRICS has made significant strides in de-dollarization, the results are uneven.

The unevenness comes as many other countries cannot survive cutting down on the US dollar. It can directly affect their economies and lead to a financial downturn. BRICSization needs a coordinated effort for the fundamentals to succeed.

The journal explores how the alliance pushed BRICSization on developing countries, convincing them to MOVE away from the US dollar. The main focus of the journal is to examine how they might move toward an alternative international monetary framework. The paper investigates how the bloc can weaken the US dollar using the Morris code.
