More gold has been purchased by Central Banks in the past 3 quarters than in the past 50 years. They know what's coming. 3 hours ago

Really? Hadn’t noticed this gold price keeps falling 3 hours ago

True. That dichotomy requires some 'splaining by someone. Premium 2 hours ago

I'll give it go ---

With a question I have posted on this board since 2012:

If your monetary system is rigged to require ever-expanding debt to survive (and it is), and the survival of that monetary system is tethered to your floating currency/Treasury issuance, does it benefit that system to be reflected against sound money, or does a sound money system which became fully un-tethered in 1971 conversely, pose a threat to your system...? 2 hours ago

Yes you are. 2 hours ago

China/Russia/USA could do this, big question mark over Europe though. 2 hours ago

The fractional reserve gold money is the original banking scam - Money as Debt

In 1872 the Bank of England sent Ernest Seyd, with lots of money to bribe the American congress into demonetizing silver which was plentiful and hard for them to manipulate. Ernest drafted the legislation himself, which came into law with the passing of the Coinage Act "Crime of 1873", effectively stopping the minting of silver that year. Within three years, 30% of the workforce was unemployed. In 1877 riots broke out all over the country. William Jennings Bryan was the Democratic candidate for president in 1896, campaigning to bring “free silver” back as a money standard. "We will answer their demand for a gold standard by saying to them: You shall not press down upon the brow of labor this crown of thorns, you shall not crucify mankind upon a cross of gold." 2 hours ago

the BETTER solution via gold standard

is to destroy massive amounts of M2 and reverse engineer price of benefits/costs

ie declaring govt debt null and void - see poof gone

declaring pensions will be paid at .10 cents on dollar or less

making current wages/income viable so masses won't suffer way massive inflation reset would do

It should not be just gold. It should be a diverse backed currency that is more than just gold. Or else you will get the ups and downs related to gold that happened in the past which resulted in unpinning the currency to gold.

No one I have seen talks about a diversely backed dollar standard. It's always the gold standard.

For example, gold and silver are not always in the same ratio and it can vary greatly:

Early US History, we had both (a bimetallic standard). But that fell out of favor and we ended up with a silver standard for a while.

Regardless, I would imagine multiple commodities being better as a backed standard than just gold. Perhaps 5. Gold and silver being 2 of those.
