I read about this in an investor group that I get emails from.
Just looked up this on Google..
Picked one listing.
New World Dollar On October 20th , 2015
The International Monetary Fund is expected to a new reserve currency alternative to the US Dollar.
The dollars role as the worlds primary reserve currency helps all of us Americans by keeping interest rates low. Foreign countries buy United States Treasury debt not just as an investment, but because dollar-denominated assets are the best way to hold foreign exchange reserves.
And on Oct 20th of this year, the IMF is expected to announce a reserve currency alternative to the U.S. dollar, which will send hundreds of billions of dollars moving around the world, literally overnight.
As China moves up the economic pecking order, it has been trying to promote the yuan as an alternative to the U.S. dollar, which has been the dominant global reserve currency since the 1944 Bretton Woods conference.

Just look at its home page - UFOs, Alex Jones - or this gem, from yesterday:
All of the major terror bombings in the United States have been printed in advance on the US Currency, with essentially pixel for pixel accuracy. These videos are meant to draw anyone into the valley of decision, and to ask the important question: what if there is something more sinister going on then the War on Terror.

Nothing there should be taken as real. It's all just clickbait for the gullible. And I looked on Google, and cannot find any reliable site talking about this. But you should have known this - the article you linked to came from 'prepperfortress', which has a picture of Obama and his campaign logo, but with a hammer and sickle. It's far right bullshit. Please read what you post before bringing it here.
