because gold is a form of industrial, artistic and medicinal capital that never degrades
when you live in / run a shithole country your biggest concern is not turning a quick buck on crypto but rather making sure the money you hold doesn't become worthless or lose too much value over a night because that could mean starving to death or your country collapsing

Gold holds in a range against oil and other vital commodities that these nations need to import. It's not as easy to deal with as US treasuries and it doesn't offer the promise of appreciating purchasing power, but now neither do USTs, which have zero comparative advantage.

Why? Because USTs that cannot possibly keep their value in real terms, given how indebted the US is and how badly we need to screw bond holders by inflating their purchasing power away from them. This is on top of the risk that the US just outright repudiates your treasury holdings because you don't love trannies enough or w/e they're in a snit about at the moment.

Nobody else is offering a replacement for the role USTs have served, instead, we are simply going back to the old system with a few modern updates which is a BRICS gold-backed currency redeemable at key exchanges to ease the logistical issues around gold.

I really don't know. It depends what you think will happen. If the US totally loses control and now all currencies have to re-peg to gold or something tangible to compete in the new world order, well... how much gold is really still in Fort Knox? What is the resulting dollar liability to gold ratio? Could we use other commodities to prop it up like natgas? $5000, $10000, $20000, even more? Nobody fuckin knows m8.

The warning I'd give is this will not be a linear process and don't underestimate how desperate the US is to stop this and the lengths they'll go to. Be careful about focusing only on things western governments can easily take from you via windfall taxes or direct seizures. Gold miners are especially vulnerable. With a stroke of a pen they'll just tax them 100% of profits or nationalize them, because after all, they're just digging up worthless shiny rocks and burning carbon for no socially useful purpose. Translated from government that means: 'fuck you for thinking you can escape paying your inflation tax or profit from betting against us'. They know who buys them and they hate those people.

There are all kinds of things which will be harder to seize than gold miners and will also go up with inflation and gold. Miners of other metals, especially 'green' metals, are less vulnerable. Physical gold (or basically any metal) in your possession is a good idea. As are any means of producing your own food, water, or electricity. Here's an alternative investment idea: as an individual you can sink money into cattle futures etfs. USG already wants this to get more expensive anyway because cows aren't green and they want you eating less of them, and they don't have any cow reserves to dump onto the market to try to screw you (like oil and gold).

2 separate things. The demand for industrial metals was from their customers. if the global pop does not collapse, industrial metal demand is going nowhere.

The BRICS nations all bought gold with their surpluses, but gold did not go up with this demand owing to the paper markets in the west and the opaqueness of global gold holdings (i.e. US having little and China having a lot), it just held flat against US money supply. Re-monetization breaks the control structure, and what gold does then we will see. If this distorted state of affairs fully unwinds, it goes up a lot vs dollars as the gold flow reverses east to west.

That's really not relevant to the time scales or situation I'm describing. You're talking to someone currently long 2 year treasuries. We'll have a recession, I'll make some money, then I'll convert to various money printing plays (yes, including gold) once I think they're done with trying to strangle BRICS via the global economy.

Also: this is not happening right this moment, but no, people do not flee to a currency when the uncertainty is about the currency itself. That part comes soon, but not quite yet, and I'm a speculator so I'm gonna surf the kali yuga.

>> No.55398529

It isn't yet but it will be, hence why the US is currently trying to find a way to drag NATO fully into direct conflict with Russia over a shithole country they have no reason to care about, and JPow has been cranking rates and crushing money supply like he wants a global depression.

People in their right mind expect the western exchange system between dollars and gold to reveal that it does not have adequate gold reserves it is willing or able to use to defend the current exchange ratio, followed by a re-adjustment to levels the system can sustain (higher gold price). The trigger for this event is an increase in the rate of conversion of paper gold holdings to physical via this system, in order to deposit physical at a BRICS affiliated exchange in return for gold backed digital currency to be used as savings and international settlements. The system is not set up for this and is highly levered paper vs physical backing, which is fine when nobody is really pulling physical out and any large parties who do can be dissuaded from doing so (i.e. Ghaddafi).

What I'm describing is basically a sudden collapse in perceived available supply of gold relative to currency. The system is stable so long as most participants do not understand what I just told you and believe their paper gold claims are actually redeemable. They won't yet test that belief to its breaking point because holding physical has little other purpose, but BRICS is about to give them one.

I'm long 2y because yields are about to drop hard. I do not have to hold them to maturity and I won't.

It's so obvious you're following a flowchart that has no branch and canned response for anything I just said.

DGAF about silver. Not a good play right this instant, but might be good to have a little. Solar is kind of a meme, and I doubt anyone will try to back their currency with it... but you never know. As I already said: a portfolio of metals and currency hedges is wisest for the coming sideshow.

That’s a lot of words signifying nothing.
The dollar is the reserve currency. There is no need to ‘defend the current exchange ratio’.
The BRICS are absolutely irrelevant. If they tie their currencies to being ‘gold backed’ they will be drained of their reserves. Do you want gold or worthless Rupees?
Ghaddafi was killed because he was messing with the petrodollar.
You have no idea what you are talking about. Lurk more and touch grass.
