The question is : do they know something?

  Not necessarily - China and Russia are both trying to get off the dollar as the international currency, thus the gold accumulation and potential future announcements of dollars being "fake money."

    The plan is obvious, but the real question is: can they succeed? Russian economic power is negligible but if China stops accepting payments in USD for all the stuff they export then that could do a lot of damage.

      China also still relies on the US and its allies as a market - I don't think that aspect of it is overplayed, though it's been a while since I looked up actual numbers. And yes, Russia is a non-factor in all this. They would be irrelevant if it wasn't for nukes. Can't believe they are surrendering their space launch monopoly so easily.
