🇺🇸 INTERVIEW: “CHINA IS DRAINING LONDON’S GOLD MARKET, PRESSURING THE DOLLAR SYSTEM” Luke Gromen, Macroeconomic Strategist “China is using what has always been the dollar’s Achilles heel, the unallocated gold market in London. If demand for gold rises, there are two options. You can let the price rise and allow the market to balance naturally, or you can expand paper gold claims to meet that demand without releasing physical gold. For decades, London has mostly done the latter. But now, as China settles more trade in yuan and gold, it’s draining physical supply from London. Eventually, policymakers in the U.S. and UK will have to decide how much gold they’re willing to let go before they allow prices to rise. That decision could reshape global monetary power.”

🇨🇳 INTERVIEW: “CHINA IS USING GOLD TO CHALLENGE THE DOLLAR SYSTEM” Luke Gromen, Macroeconomic Strategist “China studied how the U.S. lost control of the gold peg in the 1970s and built a system that avoids the same weakness. By allowing the gold price to float in yuan rather than fixing it, they protect themselves from a direct run on their currency. And by keeping their own gold off the market, they can use it strategically without showing all their cards. It’s not about replacing the dollar overnight. It’s about creating an alternative that slowly shifts power away from the current system.”

🇨🇳 INTERVIEW: “CHINA FOUND A WAY TO BUY OIL WITHOUT USING DOLLARS” Luke Gromen, Macroeconomic Strategist “As China imports more oil at higher prices, it faces the risk of running out of dollars. That could trigger a late-1990s-style Asian currency crisis, forcing them to devalue the yuan and suffer high inflation and falling living standards. To avoid that, China created a workaround. For more than a decade, they’ve built offshore yuan clearing banks and convinced oil exporters to sell in yuan instead of dollars. Russia agreed because China allows those yuan surpluses to be settled in physical gold. It’s simple: Russia sells oil, gets paid in yuan, buys Chinese goods with some of it, and converts the rest into gold. Nobody may fully trust Beijing, but everyone trusts gold.”

Eric Sprott: There will be a shortage of gold. - China imported 163t of gold in May. - We mine ~3,600 and recycle ~1,400t annually. Annualized, China's May imports alone amount to roughly 2,000t... That's ~40% of annual global mine + recycled supply. And that's before considering that China produces another 400-500t annually, virtually none of which leaves the country. China isn't just buying gold...it's building a financial system around it With the introduction of interest-bearing gold accounts, accessible through online banking and paying roughly 1% in gold, China is beginning to eliminate one of gold's biggest historical disadvantages: "Gold pays no interest." At the same time, China is gradually opening international trade through gold. Trade can be settled in yuan, while surplus balances can ultimately be converted into physical gold. China is even building gold vaults abroad, allowing bullion to be stored in friendly jurisdictions rather than Western financial centers. So is basically saying use our currency and if you don't trust us change it to gold and store it locally In a world where trust is declining, China is using gold's 5,000-year monetary history to gradually increase the international role of the yuan.

🇺🇸🇨🇳 China has been quietly breaking free from the dollar system for over a decade, and even most in finance missed every sign it was happening. Luke Gromen traces it all back, from the Shanghai Gold Exchange in 2014 to the yuan oil contract in 2018 to record trade surpluses that keep growing even as the yuan strengthens. "China and Russia looked at that, and said 'we've got to get out of the dollar system. We have to create an alternative, otherwise any war that started would be over day one.'" The footprints are in the markets. Most just don't know what to look for. Luke Gromen

Here's why the Chinese are buying seemingly all the gold 🪙on Earth: China is a mess but has run biggest trade surplus ever imagined which is keeping CNY "stronger." Chinese are putting a lot that surplus into gold realizing what happens to yuan (and more) if (when) trade surplus normalizes. If not for the $1+ TRILLION surplus China has amassed this year, CNY would be plunging in the same boat as JPY/INR/KRW. So, thinking ahead, as the rest of the world starts pushing back against China (see: Mexico, France) the Chinese know their massive trade surplus is temporary and once it normalizes to something more sustainable the yuan will drop sharply. Thus, China (companies, banks and individuals, not govt) can't get enough gold looking ahead for the inevitable currency reversion to its fundamentals, especially given how bad the banking system is and the accelerating crash in macro (investment & consumer spending). So, there's India’s economy practically thriving compared to China's yet the rupee is plunging because the country needs to finance its massive and growing trade deficit when the Euro$ increasingly doesn’t want to. At the same time, China is a total mess (banks + econ) and getting worse but has the biggest trade surplus humanity has ever seen. And still the Chinese put a lot of it into gold realizing the precarious shape they're in.

Gold is no longer just a safe haven trade. It is actively becoming the collateral layer for global commerce. While retail investors watch daily price fluctuations, sovereign nations are securing physical gold to back trade deals for industrial equipment and energy. It is a calculated move for strategic power. "Having collateral backing trade deals that have nothing to do with gold... having that gold in your arsenal matters, " says Nomi Prins Watch my full breakdown of this structural shift on Kitco NEWS

🚨 Historic: China Internationalizes the Gold-Backed Yuan and Payment System for the First Time Ever For the first time, the People’s Bank of China has explicitly made expanding the RMB’s global role a core priority: More use in trade and investment, stronger offshore markets, better cross-border payment systems, and solidifying Hong Kong as a key hub with physical gold vaults, clearing, and trading infrastructure. State institutions are also heavily bullish on gold. At the same time, JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon just warned that if the U.S. is no longer the world’s strongest economy and military in 25 years, the dollar will lose its reserve-currency status. History shows reserve status follows the dominant power. Dimon’s point is straightforward: keep the edge or lose the privilege. China is moving on multiple fronts to challenge that dominance: • Building gold-linked infrastructure and credibility for the yuan (vaults, trading, physical delivery options) so the currency feels more “hard-asset backed” to the rest of the world. • Expanding CIPS and pushing the new BRICS payment system (BRICS Pay / Bridge) as a real alternative to SWIFT, allowing countries to settle trade in local currencies without going through the dollar system. And don’t forget the real-world leverage: China still dominates the rare-earth supply chain (roughly 70% of mining, over 90% of processing, and the vast majority of permanent magnets). These materials are essential for EVs, wind turbines, defense systems, electronics, and more. That gives Beijing serious bargaining power in any shift away from dollar-centric trade. None of this means the dollar collapses tomorrow. It still settles the bulk of global trade and holds the majority of reserves. But the direction of travel is clear: China is systematically building the plumbing (gold, payments, commodities control) for a multipolar currency world, while the U.S. is being told by one of its own top bankers that the clock is running if it loses its edge. Soon as China banned retail paper gold market, Chinese investors turned to tokenized gold on blockchains. The game is long. The pieces are moving.

LUKE GROMEN: GOLD TO RUN THE US TRADE DEFICIT – $10K-$20K+ AHEAD? Macro strategist Luke Gromen drops a mind-bending take: the US isn't just exporting gold randomly—it's de facto settling massive trade deficits with physical gold flows. This could force gold prices way higher, paving the way for an official revaluation to tackle the debt mountain. THE GOLD EXPORT PARADOX – STRATEGY, NOT WEAKNESS ➡️ Gromen says recent US gold exports don't kill the revaluation idea—they actually make it possible. ➡️ The trade deficit is enormous and nobody else wants to keep financing it forever. ➡️ Gold flows out to settle parts of it, letting the market bid the price up naturally. HOW GOLD STARTS "RUNNING" THE DEFICIT ➡️ No paper market alone can absorb deficits this size anymore. ➡️ Gold becomes the neutral settlement asset when the price rises high enough. ➡️ "Gold is going to run the deficits... rather than the US running the deficits." THE PRICE LEVELS REQUIRED FOR THIS SHIFT ➡️ $5,000 gold is far too low to handle the volume needed. ➡️ Real settlement power requires $10,000, $15,000 or even $20,000+ gold. ➡️ "It's not going to happen at $5,000 gold. It's going to need $10,000 gold, $15,000 gold, $20,000 gold." THE REVALUATION PLAY THAT FOLLOWS ➡️ Once trade bids gold that high, the US can simply revalue its official holdings. ➡️ One accounting move marks gold to market and creates trillions instantly. ➡️ Treasury Secretary gets huge flexibility to shorten the long end of the curve and strengthen the balance sheet. CHINA'S TREASURY REDUCTION – SMART, NOT DESPERATE ➡️ Cutting Treasuries is not proof of a collapsing Chinese economy. ➡️ Desperate nations sell gold—China keeps aggressively buying it. ➡️ This looks like preparation for a stronger yuan, weaker dollar deal tied to future trade talks. THE BOTTOM LINE Luke Gromen sees America's trade deficits turning into the ultimate bullish driver for gold, quietly forcing a much higher price floor before the US rides the wave to recapitalize its books in one clean move. The old dollar-deficit era ends not with a crash, but with gold quietly taking over the burden. HT: Luke Gromen #Gold #Macro #TradeDeficit #LukeGromen #MonetaryReset #DollarSystem

A Financial Revolution for Global Balance China is sparking a financial revolution, boldly backing its yuan with gold to challenge the US dollar’s dominance and foster a cooperative, multilateral global order. The People’s Bank of China (PBoC) has emerged as the world’s leading gold buyer, amassing reserves at a staggering pace. This ambitious “debasement trade” seeks to restore rock-solid trust in the yuan through a hard asset the dollar abandoned decades ago. Far from aiming for dominance, China’s strategy champions a multipolar economic system, set to disrupt markets, elevate interest rates, boost commodities, and challenge cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin.

Wow the upper-tier financial intellectuals in China who normally don’t care if regular plebs are drooling and falling on the ground are speaking out. Apparently the Chinese government and its Oil producing trading partner sovereigns are experimenting with the OIL-#GOLD-RMB trade using the new offshore SGE #GOLD vaults in Hong Kong. And the Chinese Lady also called #GOLD China’s financial nuclear weapon… This is what I think: when Luke Luke Gromen talked about China’s OIL-#GOLD-RMB trade one or two years ago; those were pure OTC bilateral trades. Now China is going to start scaling this via SGE OTC price inquiry bilateral transactions and centralized SGE clearing.

GOLD IS SILENTLY REPLACING US TREASURIES AS GLOBAL COLLATERAL Something bigger than anything seen in over 50 years is unfolding in the global financial system right now. Almost nobody is talking about it. Gold is no longer just being bought by central banks. It is actively returning as the preferred collateral across private citizens, companies, and governments, beginning to displace US Treasuries from the core of the system. THE CORE THESIS: GOLD RECLAIMS ITS ROLE AS TRUST ➡️ Collateral exists to replace trust. In the repo markets that keep the entire financial machine running, government bonds still make up the vast majority of that collateral. ➡️ US Treasuries alone account for roughly two-thirds of global bond collateral. ➡️ When trust in those bonds erodes, the demand for them as collateral shrinks. That is exactly what is starting to happen. PRIVATE CITIZENS ARE ALREADY MOVING ➡️ In India, gold-backed loans grew seven times faster than ordinary consumer credit over the past year. ➡️ Vietnam’s central bank is preparing gold certificates so citizens can turn privately held gold into usable financial instruments. ➡️ Tether’s gold tokens can now be used as collateral for loans on crypto platforms, and a physical-gold-backed credit card is launching specifically for emerging markets. THE EMERGING-MARKET BREAKTHROUGH ➡️ Juan Sartori of Tether Gold put it plainly: “Our top goal is to offer people in collapsing financial systems a financial alternative.” ➡️ For hundreds of millions who fear their local currency or even their dollar accounts can be forcibly converted overnight, a gold-backed card that lets them spend without losing purchasing power is a game-changer. ➡️ Similar tokenized gold products are already expanding across Asia. COMPANIES AND GOVERNMENTS JOIN THE SHIFT ➡️ Commercial Bank of Dubai just launched a gold medal loan product that lets businesses borrow and lend directly in physical ounces. ➡️ Hong Kong has centralized its gold clearing to pull price discovery and yuan-denominated trading closer to China. ➡️ Dubai introduced a physical gold contract settled in dirhams. Singapore is building gold storage for foreign central banks so the metal can serve as trusted collateral. THE BOTTOM LINE Gold is being remonetized from the bottom up and the top down at the same time. The process is quiet, technical, and still invisible to most investors. Those who understand that collateral is the real battleground already see where the next decade of demand is coming from. This is how money quietly changes. #GoldCollateral #Remonetization #GoldLoans #DigitalGold #USTreasuries #GoldDemand #SilentShift

COMPANIES AND GOVERNMENTS JOIN THE SHIFT ➡️ Commercial Bank of Dubai just launched a gold medal loan product that lets businesses borrow and lend directly in physical ounces. ➡️ Hong Kong has centralized its gold clearing to pull price discovery and yuan-denominated trading closer to China. ➡️ Dubai introduced a physical gold contract settled in dirhams. Singapore is building gold storage for foreign central banks so the metal can serve as trusted collateral. THE BOTTOM LINE Gold is being remonetized from the bottom up and the top down at the same time. The process is quiet, technical, and still invisible to most investors. Those who understand that collateral is the real battleground already see where the next decade of demand is coming from. This is how money quietly changes. #GoldCollateral #Remonetization #GoldLoans #DigitalGold #USTreasuries #GoldDemand #SilentShift

AFRICA'S GOLD BANK JUST WENT LIVE: THE DOLLAR IS BEING CUT OUT Africa just made a quiet but seismic move. Central banks are building their own gold bank and a continent-wide payment system that deliberately bypasses the US dollar while opening a direct gold corridor straight to China. The masses still have no idea this is happening. THE AFRICAN AWAKENING ➡️ On July 20 the central banks of Egypt and Eswatini sat down to advance both PAPSS and a pan-African gold bank. ➡️ The driving force is identical to China’s: escape dollar dependence before the next sanctions hammer falls. ➡️ Russia’s frozen reserves and the deliberate dollar squeeze on Iran taught them the lesson. They are acting on it. THE PAPSS BREAKTHROUGH ➡️ Afreximbank’s Pan-African Payment and Settlement System already links banks in 28 countries. ➡️ The Central Bank of the Central African States just joined, bringing the six CFA-franc nations with it. ➡️ Transactions now clear in roughly seven seconds. Western dollar banks lose real-time visibility. ➡️ Daily settlement still runs through Afreximbank in dollars. That is exactly where gold can replace the dollar as the final settlement asset. THE GOLD BANK PLAN ➡️ On 29 December Afreximbank and the Egyptian central bank formally decided to create a pan-African gold bank. ➡️ Goal: strengthen central-bank reserves, build African refineries and trading hubs, and keep physical gold on the continent. ➡️ A gold refinery is scheduled to open in an Egyptian free-trade zone by year-end. McKinsey is writing the feasibility study right now. THE CHINA CONNECTION ➡️ China’s CIPS system has already signed partnerships with Afreximbank and other regional banks to create offshore yuan centers. ➡️ Hong Kong’s Christopher Hui is personally building gold corridors with Ghana and Laos. ➡️ A joint venture between the Hong Kong Gold Exchange and Alibaba’s AGTech is preparing a digital platform so gold can serve as collateral and tokenized payment. ➡️ The design is clear: African gold stays in African vaults under Chinese-linked oversight while settlement shifts into yuan. THE RESERVE REALITY ➡️ China imported 196 tonnes net in May and 180 tonnes in June. ➡️ Official PBOC purchases were only 10 and 15 tonnes. Analysts at Goldman Sachs estimate the real May figure closer to 50 tonnes. ➡️ Physical gold is being pulled into a new system that the West still pretends does not exist. THE BOTTOM LINE Africa is no longer waiting for permission. It is building the rails, the vaults and the corridors that let physical gold settle trade outside the dollar. The quiet reconstruction of the monetary order is already underway. The window to understand it is still open. Most people will notice only after the door has closed.

🌎 INTERVIEW: “GOLD COULD SOON OVERTAKE THE DOLLAR AS THE WORLD’S TOP RESERVE ASSET” Luke Gromen, Macroeconomic Strategist “When people talk about foreign exchange reserves, they usually only count fiat currencies. But if you include gold, the picture looks very different. Right now, the dollar’s share of total reserves plus gold is down to 46%. Gold is up to 30%, and central banks are still buying thousands of tons every year. If that trend continues and gold rises another 30 to 50%, it could surpass the dollar in global reserve value. That would create a major moment of cognitive dissonance for those who believe the dollar’s dominance can’t change.”

GOLD COLLATERAL REVOLUTION: THE ASIAN STRATEGY THAT COULD REWRITE GLOBAL FINANCE WHEN TRUST IN THE DOLLAR BREAKS Gold expert and central bank insider Gregor Gregersen knows the Asian gold market like few others in the sector. He currently serves on a central bank committee in Singapore for the new gold hub project and is involved with Hong Kong’s gold strategy. A massive realignment is underway in the gold market that most investors still miss. While Western exchanges continue to trade paper gold with massive leverage, Asia is moving physical metal and building collateral systems designed for a post-dollar world. THE CHINA GOLD BLACK HOLE ➡️ China is importing vastly more gold than official numbers show, with estimates pointing to four times the reported figures from the World Gold Council. ➡️ Purchases happen off-exchange in OTC markets, allowing massive physical accumulation without driving up the visible price on LBMA or COMEX. ➡️ Once inside China the metal rarely comes back out, creating a strategic one-way flow that has continued for 10 to 15 years. THE POWER OF TRUE COLLATERAL ➡️ Collateral is now the single most important topic in the entire gold industry. ➡️ Unlike repo transactions where banks can re-use and multiply the same gold up to 50 or 60 times, true collateral keeps full ownership with the customer. ➡️ Borrowers receive significantly lower interest rates because the physical gold serves as direct, unencumbered security for the loan. SINGAPORE AND HONG KONG BUILD THE BACKUP ➡️ Singapore is developing a major gold hub project with direct involvement from its central bank committee and recently added several tonnes to reserves. ➡️ Hong Kong is executing a clear Chinese strategy to create a controlled free-trade gold center that can function when the US dollar loses acceptance. ➡️ These hubs enable institutions and family offices to borrow against physical gold through licensed structures while keeping legal title with the owner. THE PAPER SYSTEM'S BREAKING POINT ➡️ The Western paper gold system runs on far more IOUs than actual physical metal, often 30 to 40 times the real backing. ➡️ In stress events the paper price can fall sharply as leveraged positions unwind, while physical premiums explode and metal becomes nearly impossible to source at spot. ➡️ The October silver squeeze proved how fast leasing rates can spike to 50 or even 100 percent when real supply runs dry. THE TRUST THRESHOLD ➡️ The entire dollar-based system rests on confidence alone and survives only until enough participants simply refuse to accept it anymore. ➡️ History shows reserve currencies shift roughly every 100 years when that trust finally collapses. ➡️ Nations are already preparing the alternative with physical gold stored securely and collateral systems that operate outside the old centers. THE BOTTOM LINE The West keeps multiplying paper promises while the East quietly moves the real metal and turns it into functional collateral. When the run on trust begins, only physical gold held with clear ownership and lending rights in secure jurisdictions will still work. This is how the next financial order takes shape — one collateralized ounce at a time.
