Had my mind blown today by how simple it was to buy Tokenized Gold. I was listening to Balaji talk about Gold today on a podcast with Luke Gromen I asked ChatGPT “what’s the best way to buy Gold that’s digital and almost like owning the real thing?” It responded with “tokenized gold: Each token represents ownership of real, physical gold This is not a gold stock, not an ETF, and not a synthetic bet—it’s closer to digital warehouse receipts for gold.” It then said the best option was Tether Gold (XAUT). I remembered recently the World team saying that you could buy real assets like Gold on World App. I wondered if you could buy XAUT? I opened the app and one of the first ten assets was XAUT. Swap USDC for Tether Gold in under 10 seconds and that’s it. The experience was magical. We are so close the Balaji vision of interoperable money and assets. When everything is a token, value will be the only thing that matters again. Tokens are just 24/7 global markets for trust. People will be able to move in and out of whatever assets they trust instantly. Trust will become the most important thing that compounds. What’s even cooler, is that you can then send Gold to anyone, instantly in World Chat 💬 Any asset, anywhere, to anyone, in any any chat. Check out the screen recordings to see how fast and easy it was

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.

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

🚨 69 SECONDS: GOLD BREAKS RECORDS, BITCOIN TURNS INTO GOLD 2.0 Buzz 巴斯光年: "Bitcoin soared past $90k this week for the first time since March, and it's starting to act more like gold. Gold broke its all-time high price per ounce, and Bitcoin is mirroring it as a store of value, less like a risky tech bet. New SEC chair Paul Atkins was sworn in this week, and he's a crypto advocate with expectations he'll ease regulations and foster more cryptocurrency innovation in America."

🚨 Massive Prep for Asset-Backed Currency Is Underway. The City of London Knows Something We Don’t. The City Of London isn’t just a financial district. It’s a separate jurisdiction, with its own police and financial authority, controlled by an elite global network that no government fully oversees… Every central bank, every currency and oil flow answers to them. The famous City Of London banker Lord Belgrave already warned about it months ago. Gold-Backed Money Is Replacing the Dollar Faster Than Anyone Expected! Banks and institutions are buying COMEX Gold options at $15,000 - $20,000 for December 2026. Bank of Korea just restarted GOLD purchases for the FIRST TIME since 2013, the latest nation quietly abandoning the dying greenback! Japan and South Korea, even after immense pressure from the US, started dumping dollar instead of US treasuries to save themselves. BoJ has also ramped up their gold reserves. The London Bullion Market Association was on the brink of collapse earlier due to the shortage of physical gold as compared to leveraged paper market trading. China’s central bank has stacked GOLD for 20 CONSECUTIVE MONTHS straight!! They even banned retail leveraged trading for gold countrywide. Russian and Chinese investors are flooding into U.S. tokenized markets on blockchain. China is also building a BRICS Payment system backed by Gold. The XRP Ledger RWA platform Trensik reported $1,000,000 in tokenized gold volume in a single day after China’s move. Paxos Gold on Ethereum also reported increased activity on tokenized gold. The global shift to ASSET-BACKED currencies is accelerating.

Keep your hands off our gold “In the rush to hoard stuff for a rainy day, there’s been scant discussion about the future of our existing mineral stockpile; the 80 tonnes of gold the Reserve Bank of Australia has sitting in vaults. The rapid surge in gold prices means the value of the RBA’s gold has doubled in Australian dollar terms over the past two years and more than tripled over the past seven years. Which makes it a great time to sell those 80 tonnes of gold for just over $18 billion of cash. The analogy extends to physical capital; what’s the point of having a gold stockpile if you never sell it?” ••••••••••••••• The AFR (no doubt acting as a proxy for Treasury) is arguing that Australia should sell its gold. This is a very dangerous thing to do. Some time in the future the U.S. dollar will stop being the world’s reserve currency and there will be reset of the monetary system. It’s highly likely that when this happens the new currency will be backed by gold. Those countries with the largest gold reserves will in the strongest financial position after reset. Gold is an appreciating asset, unlike bonds which depreciate due to inflation. That’s why central banks manipulate the gold price by artificially shorting it via paper contracts on the Comex to prevent individuals from accumulating it. Let’s not forget the U.S. outlawed the possession of gold in 1932 to prop up the paper markets. Articles like this remind us that the world’s financial system is on very shaky ground. Western government debt levels are unsustainable and the bond markets are on very shaky ground. Gold has always been insurance against reckless government spending/borrowing. Rather than sell our gold, the Australian government should be accumulating it. Any attempt by central banks to take our gold needs to be stopped stone cold dead. That includes bringing our gold back home, away from the clutches of the Bank of England.

EXPLAINED: BRICS LAUNCHES A GOLD-BACKED CURRENCY: THE "UNIT"📢 It's called the "Unit." This is a live prototype for an alternative to the US dollar in international trade. 🧪 What Is It? A digital currency for trade between BRICS nations (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa). It's backed by a basket of their local currencies and physical gold. 🔧 How It Works (Simplified): Step 1: The "Basket" is Created. A "Unit Reserve Basket" holds: ➡️ 40% in physical gold (40 grams for the first test batch). ➡️ 60% in five BRICS currencies (12% each: Real, Yuan, Rupee, Ruble, Rand). Step 2: Units Are Issued. On October 31, 2025, 100 Units were created. Each Unit was worth exactly 1 gram of gold. Step 3: Value Fluctuates with the Market. The Unit's value changes daily based on the strength of the currencies in the basket vs. gold. ➡️ By December 4, the basket's value had adjusted to 98.23 grams of gold. ➡️ Therefore, 1 Unit = 0.9823g of gold. 🎯The Goal: Trade Without Dollars. Countries could use Units to settle transactions, reducing reliance on the US dollar and keeping their gold reserves within their own borders. ⚠️ Important Caveats: ➡️ This is a test pilot, not an official, adopted currency. ➡️ It was initiated by the IRIAS organization and is being pushed by certain BRICS members. ➡️ It is being closely watched by other nations, including several in Africa. 📈 Why This Matters for Gold: The "Unit" formally anchors a trade instrument to physical gold. If adoption grows, it institutionalizes gold demand on a multinational scale, reinforcing its role as a monetary asset. The Bottom Line: The BRICS "Unit" is a working prototype for a gold-referenced trade currency. While not yet official policy, its existence is a direct step toward de-dollarization and a significant bullish signal for long-term gold demand. #Gold #BRICS #DeDollarization #Unit #Currency #MonetarySystem #Macro #Finance #Investing

The RBA is colluding with global banks against our national interest. In Estimates I asked the RBA how much it costs to store our gold with the Bank of England. They of course had to take it on notice. I asked if it would be worth storing our gold in the vaults of the RBA building, which is currently incurring a billion dollar bill to remove asbestos. At the bottom of the building are vaults which used to hold cash but given the decline in its usage they are now empty. They would be perfect to store gold bars. Notice how Chris Kent the RBA Deputy Governor literally chokes on his own anxiety as he argues it would cost too much to bring it home. Funny that. It didn’t cost to much to send it the Bank of England. And apparently it wouldn’t be able to be lent out if it was in Sydney. Yet again why is the RBA lending gold which works to lower the price received by Australian gold miners? The answer of course is because the RBA is a puppet of the International banking regime. Previously I’ve been told by the RBA the gold bars don’t move when they are lent out so what difference does it make as to where the gold bars are stored. The reality is that the International Banking regime has to keep the price of gold suppressed by manipulating its supply through artificial selling. Bankers rely on the creation of paper money to generate an income. As the paper market becomes more and more fragile with ever increasing amounts of debt, people and governments turn to gold to protect their wealth. The bankers are trying to protect their racquet for as long as possible before it all collapses. And I quote: “Renovating the Reserve Bank of Australia's (RBA) headquarters is increasingly looking like a disastrous episode of home-building show Grand Designs. The key difference? The budget for the horror reno is now north of $1 billion. Documents obtained using the Freedom of Information (FOI) process detail the difficulty and unexpected expense of renovating the central bank's flagship office at 65 Martin Place in Sydney, built in 1964.” Quote from: #auspol

The Bitcoin Power Law Theory is absolutely fascinating and the model's upper ceiling predicts $1M per BTC by 2028. To quote Giovanni's BTC_POWER_LAW - "Bitcoin is ruled by power laws. Its regularities show that it behaves more like a physical system than an asset." How does this model work? We've got the alpha 👇 Robert Baggs and I spoke to Björn Schmidtke about his new Tether Gold DAT and why he remains convinced that tokenized Gold will be a massive drawcard for institutional investors. But he also sees Bitcoin eventually surpassing Gold's market cap due to the Power Law that is evident in various metrics relating to Bitcoin (its value, hashrate, wallets etc). How soon could this happen? As early as 2033, if the Bitcoin Power Law Theory continues to be validated. You can find the full conversation from our recent Cointelegraph Chain Reaction show in the 🧵👇

Gold since April 2025: +60% Bitcoin since April 2025: -30% Gold since its January high: still near all-time highs. Bitcoin since its October high: -48%. 5 consecutive red months for Bitcoin. A 0.55 correlation with the S&P 500 as of March 1st. And people still call it "digital gold." Let me explain why that framing will cost you money: When the Middle East escalated, gold surged above $5,300. Bitcoin dropped. When equities sold off, gold held. Bitcoin sold with them. When uncertainty spiked, gold hit all-time highs. Bitcoin bled. This isn't an accident. It's the nature of WHAT these assets actually are. Gold is an asset that isn't somebody else's liability. It's not correlated with the general level of risk assets. It doesn't shift identities depending on what the market needs it to be that week. Bitcoin does. Sometimes it's digital gold. Sometimes it's correlated to NASDAQ. Sometimes it follows the dollar. Sometimes it follows liquidity. It depends on whatever narrative is convenient at the time. And narrative always follows price. That's the way it works. When Bitcoin was ripping to $126,000 in October, everyone called it a store of value. Now that it's trading at $66,000 with 5 red months, NOBODY talks about the digital gold thesis anymore. Gold doesn't have that problem. Central banks bought 863 tonnes of gold in 2025. Accumulating at the fastest pace in decades. China is buying like crazy for months. Nobody's buying Bitcoin for their sovereign reserves. Nobody's rewriting the gold thesis every quarter. I said this on back in April last year when Bitcoin was reclaiming $90,000 and everyone wanted me to be bullish on crypto: "If NASDAQ takes a header, if risk assets take another leg down, you want to bet Bitcoin goes up or down? I'd vote down." NASDAQ took a header. Risk assets took a leg down. Bitcoin went down. Gold went up. It's not complicated. Gold is insurance against irresponsible policies from central bankers and government officials. It protects you against the falling dollar. It's been doing this for 5,000 years. Bitcoin is a speculative instrument that acts like protection only when everything else is going up too. And in the environment we're heading into (geopolitical risk at generational highs, the dollar under pressure, central banks still buying, the Fed boxed in on rates) you want the real thing. Not the imitation. GOLD SURVIVED EMPIRES BITCOIN SURVIVED TWITTER

BITCOIN'S "DIGITAL GOLD" NARRATIVE JUST FAILED ITS BIGGEST TEST While gold surged past $5,000 and silver hit record after record... Bitcoin dropped 6% in 2025. Silver is up 138%. Bitcoin? Down 30% from its October high. The "digital gold" thesis is collapsing. But here's what most people are getting wrong about WHY... My good friend Michael Howell at CrossBorder Capital/ GLIndexes nailed it: This isn't a "Great Debasement" trade. If it were, Bitcoin would be celebrating and bonds would be in freefall. Neither is happening. THE REAL DRIVER: CHINA The People's Bank of China has added $1.1T to Chinese money markets over the past year. And they'll likely do the same again this year. This aggressive monetary debasement is pushing Chinese residents into gold as an inflation hedge. You see, Chinese residents are big gold buyers but NOT big Bitcoin buyers. Why? The PBoC banned cryptocurrencies onshore. So when China prints money, it flows into gold, not crypto. And because the Yuan is stable against the dollar (capital controls and trade surplus), changes in the Yuan gold price transmit virtually 1:1 into the US dollar gold price. Bitcoin gets none of this flow. THE LIQUIDITY PROBLEM Michael's research shows something critical: Cryptocurrencies are the most liquidity-sensitive assets on the planet. And Global Liquidity is starting to slow. During the last liquidity downswing from late 2021 through 2022, Bitcoin fell from $65k to under $20k. In the next upswing, it gained over $100k. Now liquidity is peaking again. Bond term premia have stopped rising. Bitcoin is flatlining. The correlation between Global Liquidity and Bitcoin is ironclad. And the cycle is turning against crypto. THE OCTOBER CRASH EXPOSED EVERYTHING On October 10, 2025, Trump's 100% China tariff threat triggered the largest single-day liquidation in crypto history. $19B wiped out in 24 hours. 1.6M accounts blown up. Bitcoin plunged from $126,000 to below $105,000. Order book depth collapsed 98%. This was a stress test And Bitcoin failed. THE "HEDGE" THAT ISN'T During recent geopolitical tensions over Greenland: Gold rose 8.6%. Bitcoin dropped 6.6%. NYDIG found that Bitcoin behaves like an "ATM" during crises. Investors sell it first to raise cash. That's not a hedge. That's a liquidity source. Meanwhile, central banks are buying gold at record levels. They're not touching Bitcoin. THE MINING DEATH SPIRAL Hashprice - the key profitability metric - fell to $35-36 per PH/s/day in November. Below breakeven for most operations. 2025 was the "harshest margin environment of all time." ROI on new mining rigs? 1,000 days. In 2017? Same equipment paid for itself in 3-6 months. AI data centers are outbidding miners for cheap electricity. The squeeze is structural. WHERE THIS IS HEADING Paolo Ardoino, Tether's CEO, said it himself last week: "There are foreign countries buying a lot of gold, and we believe these countries will soon launch tokenized versions of gold as a competitive currency to the US dollar." Gold is being repositioned as foundational collateral beneath a fragmented digital monetary landscape. The BRICS are building gold-backed currencies to accelerate dedollarization. And ironically, the US will use gold-backed stablecoins to DEFEND the dollar's dominance. Gold, forever the bane of the dollar's existence, is being resurrected as its savior. A new monetary age is coming. And Bitcoin isn't part of it. MY TAKE My good friend Michael is right: Monetary debasement is a long-term investment strategy, not a short-term trade. But Bitcoin's cycle is no longer a simple 4 year halving cycle based on supply. It's a complex demand cycle driven by Global Liquidity. And that liquidity is peaking. When Chinese liquidity floods into gold while Bitcoin sits banned on the mainland... When Global Liquidity peaks and crypto flatlines... When the asset fails every stress test thrown at it... There's a serious problem.

If you've been confused watching gold crash during this war, you're not alone. The financial media won't cover it but there are three macro conditions driving it's price down. Understanding these will help you decide whether to buy more or sell. Here's what they are: 1) The Oil Shock Margin Call Countries that import oil need dollars to pay for increased energy bills. Turkey imports 90% of its oil and 98% of its gas. They were forced to sell 58 tons of gold in two weeks to stay afloat, becoming responsible for the most selling pressure than every other gold ETF investor who are also selling. Countries relying on these imports are doing the same. 2) Currency Peg Defense Every Gulf state pegs their currency to the dollar, which upholds when oil money flows in. Since the Iran war shut the Strait of Hormuz, dollars are still flowing out through food imports, military costs, and capital flight. They have to sell gold to keep their currency stable instead of letting the peg break, which would lead to hyperinflation and economic collapse. 3) War Funding Russia sold $30 billion in gold last year and is banning gold exports over 100 grams starting April 2026. Poland is talking about liquidating $13 billion worth of it for defense spending. That's just two examples of countries converting gold reserves into cash for military spending. Gold crashed because three macro forces margin called entire countries at the same time. The thread below explains why none of this changes the long-term bull case for gold.

🏛️ JUDY SHELTON ON GOLD-BACKED US BONDS & THE JULY 4TH SURPRISE Gold is trading near all-time highs as 2026 begins. Is this just speculative noise, or a signal of a profound monetary shift? Former Trump adviser and currency expert Judy Shelton shares her insights: GOLD’S SURGE IS A SIGNAL, NOT NOISE ➡️ Central banks are buying gold aggressively. Voters despise inflation. ➡️ Shelton quotes Alan Greenspan: “If gold is such a worthless metal, why does the U.S. government and all major governments hold so much of it?” 🔥 This reflects a deep “dissatisfaction with existing monetary arrangements” and a loss of trust in fiat. THE GOLD-BACKED BOND: A $1.2 TRILLION OPPORTUNITY ✅ Shelton passionately advocates for a U.S. Treasury-issued, 50-year gold-backed bond. ➡️ The U.S. holds 261 million ounces of gold but carries it on its books at $42/oz—a statutory price set in 1973. 💡 At market value (~$4,500/oz), that’s over $1.2 trillion in value. ✅ Issuing a bond collateralized by this gold would be an act of strength, not weakness. It would signal a commitment to sound money and fiscal responsibility. ➡️ “It would be the cheapest way for the U.S. Treasury to borrow money.” THE FORT KNOX AUDIT: RESTORING TRUST ⚠️ A major hurdle is public trust: Does the gold actually exist, unencumbered? ✅ Shelton’s solution: President Trump (potentially with Elon Musk) should publicly walk through Fort Knox and commission an official audit. ➡️ This dramatic act would validate the collateral, capture public imagination, and pave the way for the gold-backed bond. JULY 4TH, 2026: A HISTORIC DATE FOR MONETARY HISTORY? ✅ The 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence presents a perfect symbolic moment. ➡️ Shelton has publicly called for the gold-backed bond to be launched on this date. Her Wall Street Journal op-ed was “circulated at high levels.” ➡️ While she can’t guarantee it, she confirms “there are people who matter, who are aware” of the idea. THE BIGGER PICTURE: COMPETING MONETARY POWERS ➡️ The U.S. competes with China for monetary dominance. The dollar’s reserve status is key, but its foundation is shaky. ➡️ A gold-backed instrument would reinforce U.S. credibility and could set a new global benchmark, demanding similar discipline from trade partners. THE BOTTOM LINE The record gold price is a flashing warning light on the dashboard of the global monetary system. The push for a gold-backed U.S. bond is a serious, high-level idea that could redefine fiscal and monetary policy—and it might just be unveiled on America’s 250th birthday.

🚨 WARNING: SOMETHING TERRIBLE WILL HAPPEN IN THE NEXT 24 HOURS!! On July 24, China will ban paper gold trading. Meanwhile, they're sitting on 30,000 TONNES of physical gold. We've seen THE SAME manipulation before. If you hold any assets today, you MUST know what's coming: Let me explain. Most people think gold is priced by people buying and selling physical bars. It isn't. The majority of gold trading happens through something called "paper gold." Paper gold is simply a financial contract. And for every ounce of physical gold that exists, there are many more ounces traded on paper. This creates enormous leverage. It keeps markets liquid. It suppresses volatility. It allows massive amounts of trading without requiring the transfer of real metal. As long as everyone trusts the system, everything functions normally. BUT CHINA JUST MADE A DIFFERENT BET. While most of the world continues trading paper gold... China has been accumulating physical gold for years. Month after month. Its central bank has continued adding to its reserves. That isn't a short-term trade. It's a long-term strategy. WHAT HAPPENS IF PHYSICAL MATTERS MORE THAN PAPER? This is where things become interesting. If confidence in paper gold weakens... The entire pricing mechanism comes under pressure. Because paper markets depend on one key assumption: That very few participants will ever demand physical delivery. And when that assumption changes, the leverage built into the system suddenly becomes its weakness. What happens if more people start demanding physical gold instead of paper claims? Markets will reprice much faster than people expect. WE'VE SEEN THIS BEFORE. Oil dumped hard during the EXACT same type of market pressure in 2024. Extreme positioning. Forced liquidations. Shifting sentiment. The market became disconnected from the broader picture. Crowded trades are fragile when conditions change. And when the world's largest commodity consumer starts changing how it participates in a market... Smart money pays attention. This isn't simply about gold prices. It's about who controls price discovery. I’ve studied markets for over 10 years and called nearly every major top and bottom. And I’ll call it again in 2026. Follow me and turn on notifications before it’s too late. Don’t make the most expensive mistake of your life.

Mark Cuban has sold majority of his Bitcoin. Cuban originally bought Bitcoin with one thesis in mind: "It was a better version of gold than gold." A hedge against fiat currency losing its value. When the dollar weakens, Bitcoin should go up. But that thesis just blew up in his face. During the Iran war, when geopolitical risk was spiking and the dollar was sliding, Bitcoin dropped. Gold went to $5,000. Think about what he was expecting. Bitcoin is priced in dollars. When the dollar falls, Bitcoin becomes cheaper for buyers around the world. Global demand should kick in and push the price up. It didn't happen. Gold did exactly what it was supposed to do as a macro hedge. Bitcoin didn't. And for Cuban, that was the line. The whole premise of holding it was gone. He's more disappointed in Bitcoin than Ethereum. He had already written off memecoins as garbage entirely. This matters beyond just one billionaire's portfolio decision. The "Bitcoin as digital gold" narrative has been the backbone of institutional adoption for years. It's the reason pension funds, family offices, and corporate treasuries started buying. If that hedge thesis is broken, the next buyer at these prices needs a different reason to hold. The honest reality: Bitcoin is still trading like a risk asset. It correlates with tech stocks in a downturn and doesn't decouple when it matters most. Gold doesn't have that problem.
