Pourquoi l'argent américain est-il vert? Blâmez le Canada!

Dans les années 1850, le chimiste canadien Thomas Sterry Hunt a mis au point une encre verte résistante aux produits chimiques pour les billets de banque. Cette encre de sécurité a été utilisée par les États-Unis pendant la guerre de Sécession - et appelée « billets verts » #Canada #Histoire #Monnaie #Greenback #Billets 🇨🇦

Why Is U.S. Money Green? Blame Canada!

In the 1850s, Canadian chemist Thomas Sterry Hunt developed a green ink resistant to chemical erasure—ideal for printing secure banknotes. The formula was adopted by U.S. printers during the Civil War when greenbacks were introduced in 1862. Canada's use of chemically stable inks predated this. 🇨🇦 #Canada #USHistory #Currency #Greenback #Banknotes

The #Australian #dollar has jumped above US70 cents this morning for the first time in nearly two years.

The #currency has #surged by nearly US10 cents since almost dropping below US60 cents in April last year.

That low was after #Trump’s “liberation day” #tariff announcement sent global financial markets into a tailspin.

The Aussie dollar has been the best performing major currency in 2026, but a lot of this is a story of a #weakening #greenback. #auspol #economy #USPol #TrumpRegime
