“For the first time since 1996, foreign central banks now hold more gold than U.S. Treasuries (U.S. debt) in their reserves, marking a historic turning point in global reserve management. Data published by Visual Capitalist reveals that, in the course of 2025, the share of gold in central bank reserves surpassed that of U.S. debt holdings, a trend driven by rising geopolitical uncertainty and a quest for asset diversification.” https://www.voronoiapp.com/money/Gold-Has-Overtaken-the-US-Dollar-in-Central-Bank-Reserves-7615

- Government: Official central bank reserves from latest 2025 data (projected stable for 2026, with minor additions like China’s ongoing buys).
- Household: Cumulative private ownership, mainly jewelry (e.g., India ~25-30k tonnes cultural stock; China ~10-15k from recent demand surges; US/Germany high per capita investment).
- Industry/Business: Estimated stock from annual tech use (~300t global) and ETF/corporate holdings (e.g., US ETFs ~2,019t; China local ETFs ~250t; industrial stock small, ~20k global total).
- Totals are approximate; private data is not centrally tracked, based on WGC/Metals Focus estimates. India leads due to massive household jewelry stock.
Central Bank Strategy
What the Strategy Involves
- Consistent monthly purchases: The PBOC reported gold additions every month in 2025 (14 consecutive months through December), totaling around 27 tonnes for the year. This pushed official reserves to about 2,306 tonnes by end-2025, representing roughly 8.5% of China’s total foreign exchange reserves.
- Long-term accumulation: Purchases continued even as gold prices hit repeated record highs (e.g., surging past $5,000/oz in early 2026). Analysts note that actual holdings may be higher than reported due to potential underreporting or indirect state purchases.
- Broader efforts: Beyond buying, China promotes the Shanghai Gold Exchange (SGE) to foreign central banks, offering to store their gold domestically (e.g., Cambodia accepted). This positions China as a global bullion hub and enhances influence in gold markets.
Why China (and Many Other Central Banks) Are Pursuing This Strategy
The core drivers are geopolitical, economic, and strategic, rooted in shifts since the 2022 Russia-Ukraine conflict:
- De-dollarization and reducing reliance on the US dollar
The US dollar dominates global reserves, but events like the freezing of ~$300 billion in Russian assets (held in Western custodians) highlighted vulnerabilities. Gold is seen as a “neutral” asset immune to sanctions or seizure—physical, not tied to any single country’s banking system. China, holding massive US Treasuries (which it has been reducing), uses gold to diversify and hedge against dollar exposure or potential debasement. - Geopolitical risk hedging and sanction insurance
In a world of rising tensions, trade wars, and weaponization of financial systems, gold acts as insurance. It protects against external shocks, capital flow volatility, and policy spillovers from major economies. Emerging markets (including China) view it as a hedge against scenarios where dollar assets could be restricted. - Portfolio diversification and reserve optimization
Gold provides balance against fiat currencies, inflation, and monetary policy uncertainty. China’s gold share remains low compared to global peers (e.g., US ~70-80% in some views, though China’s ambition is to internationalize the RMB). Steady buying optimizes reserves, boosts credibility, and supports long-term goals like RMB internationalization. - Influence in global finance and alternative systems
By accumulating gold and offering custody/storage to allies (via projects like mBridge for cross-border payments in local currencies), China aims to reduce Western dominance in bullion markets, build bilateral ties, and position gold as a settlement asset in non-dollar systems. This isn’t just hedging—some analysts see it as replacing dollar reliance in trade. - Structural shift post-2022
Global central bank buying doubled from ~500 tonnes/year pre-2022 to over 1,000 tonnes annually. China’s actions signal this is now a long-term strategic direction (per Chinese analysts and PBOC-aligned views), not tactical or price-driven. Even with high prices, the PBOC continues modestly to encourage domestic confidence and retail buying.
In short, this isn’t speculative trading—it’s a deliberate policy to enhance economic sovereignty, shield against geopolitical risks, and gradually reshape the global monetary landscape away from dollar hegemony. Analysts (e.g., Goldman Sachs, World Gold Council) expect this to persist into 2026, with central bank demand averaging 60-70 tonnes/month globally, supporting gold’s bull run despite volatility.
Official Gold Holdings: US vs. China
As of January 2026, the US Federal Reserve’s official gold reserves remain unchanged at approximately 8,133 tonnes (or about 261 million troy ounces), a figure that has been stable since the early 2000s. This represents over 70% of the US’s foreign exchange reserves when valued at market prices (around $1.2 trillion at ~$5,000/oz), though it’s carried on the Fed’s balance sheet at a historical cost of just $11 billion.
Theories About Fake or Empty Inventories
Theories primarily target the US reserves, claiming they’re “fake” (e.g., tungsten-filled bars painted gold) or depleted (e.g., secretly sold, leased, or used for black ops), backed only by “paper receipts” without real physical verification.
Solid Evidence for Holdings?
- US Evidence:
- Audits/Inspections: Last full physical audit (count, weigh, assay) was 1953; partial ones in 1974-1986 (e.g., 13.6% of Fort Knox bars tested under GAO supervision).
-
Ongoing Treasury OIG audits (e.g., 2024 Mint gold acquisition review) and annual seals/verifications, but no independent external firm has done a comprehensive forensic check. Critics note vaults reopened multiple times without explanation, eroding trust.
- Public Reporting: Monthly Fed/Treasury statements (e.g., H.4.1 release) list “gold stock” at $11B; FRED data tracks quantities. Foreign gold custody (e.g., $1T+ at NY Fed) adds indirect verification via international claims.
- Market/Indirect Proof: Stable holdings since 2005 (no sales); repatriation demands (e.g., Germany’s 2017 return) confirm physical existence without issues. No proven fakes in official dealings.
- China Evidence:
- Audits/Inspections: No public audits disclosed; reliance on PBOC self-assessments. Some internal verification via Shanghai Gold Exchange, but no independent external audits.
- Public Reporting: Monthly PBOC announcements since 2022 (e.g., via SAFE), IMF filings. But discrepancies: Goldman estimates 15t in September 2025 vs. official ~1t.
- Market/Indirect Proof: Massive domestic production (15-20% global), SGE withdrawals (1,000t/year), ETF surges (133t in 2025) imply real accumulation. No repatriation scandals, but secrecy allows underreporting estimates.
Comparison: Who Provides More Direct Evidence?
The US is more likely providing direct evidence of holdings as reality, based on greater (though imperfect) transparency and historical scrutiny.

Estimated Number of People Purchasing Gold Daily
Direct statistics on unique buyers are limited, so estimates are derived from total private demand, average purchase size (adjusted for corporate/large purchases), and assumption of one purchase per buyer per year (occasional events, not daily repeats). Total annual purchases = total grams / average grams per purchase. Daily buyers = annual purchases / 365 (averaged, excluding seasonal peaks). Including corporate/business purchases (e.g., raw gold, plates, industrial trinkets by firms) increases volume but adds fewer people (larger transactions by representatives like procurement officers).
- Average purchase size assumptions (updated for corporate; from retailer, market, and industrial reports):
- China: ~10g for jewelry/trinkets, ~50g for bars/coins, ~1kg for corporate/industrial (raw/plates). Weighted average: ~25g overall (corporate ~10% of demand, larger sizes pull average up slightly).
- US: ~5g for jewelry, ~30g for bars/coins, ~10kg for corporate/industrial/tech, ~100kg for ETF/OTC institutional buys. Weighted average: ~50g overall (ETFs dominate in peak years, with fewer but massive transactions).
For 2025 (latest full year):
- China: 876 tonnes = 876,000,000g. Annual purchases ≈ 35 million (876M / 25g). Daily buyers ≈ 96,000 people.
- US: 679 tonnes = 679,000,000g. Annual purchases ≈ 13.6 million (679M / 50g). Daily buyers ≈ 37,000 people.
China’s daily buyer estimate is ~2.6x the US, reflecting larger population and broader retail/cultural demand, partially offset by US institutional surges. Corporate purchases add ~5-10% to daily counts (e.g., business reps buying raw gold or bars for firms), but with fewer transactions due to bulk sizes. Estimates for earlier years follow similar ratios, with peaks in 2021 (China ~140,000 daily) and 2020 (US ~90,000 daily due to ETFs). These focus on retail vendors, pawn shops, supermarkets, bigger retailers, and wholesale for corporate (excluding pure financial trades like futures). Seasonal variations (e.g., holidays in China) and underreported pawn sales may affect actuals.
Annual Industrial/Business + Government Demand (Tonnes) – China vs. US
This includes:
- Technology/Industrial (raw gold, plates, trinkets for electronics, dentistry, other manufacturing—business purchases).
- Investment (institutional/business) (ETFs/OTC by funds, corporations, institutions—not retail bars/coins).
- Central bank/Government (official reserve net purchases/additions).

- China dominates in central bank/government (PBOC consistent buyer since late 2022, 27t reported in 2025, pushing reserves to ~2,306t by end-2025). Industrial/tech is steady (80–100t/year), driven by electronics/semiconductors/AI. Local institutional ETFs surged in 2025 (~200t+ inflows estimated from reports).
- US dominates in institutional/business investment via ETFs (physically backed, record 437t added in 2025, holdings ~2,019t). Tech/industrial ~70–90t/year (electronics/AI). No central bank net purchases (Fed reserves static at ~8,133t).
Estimated Daily “Buyers” or Entities (Industrial/Business + Government)
Direct counts are limited (central banks: few entities; industrial: sector-wide firms; ETFs: fund managers/institutions). Estimates based on total tonnes, average transaction sizes (e.g., CB: large quarterly/annual; industrial: kg-scale by manufacturers; ETFs: bulk by funds). For 2025:
- China: ~350t+ = 350M+ grams. Annual “transactions” ≈ 350,000–700,000 (assuming avg. 0.5–1kg per industrial/business buy + large CB blocks). Daily entities ≈ 1,000–2,000 (CB monthly + firms procuring raw/plates + ETF flows).
- US: 679t = 679M+ grams. Annual “transactions” ≈ 100,000–300,000 (dominated by fewer but larger ETF inflows + industrial buys). Daily entities ≈ 300–800 (mostly institutional ETF managers + tech firms).
China has more distributed activity (many manufacturers + CB), US more concentrated (ETF funds). This separates clearly from consumer/retail.
Is China Trying to Takeover the Gold/Silver Markets, Limit Supply, and Skyrocket Prices to Destabilize the Dollar?
No, the evidence does not support a “takeover” or targeted destabilization plot. Instead, data points to defensive strategies:
- Gold Context: China’s PBOC has pursued “de-dollarization” by steadily increasing gold reserves (from 5.5% of forex reserves in 2024 to 8.5% by end-2025), but this is part of a global trend where emerging markets (e.g., India, Russia) buy gold to hedge against US dollar volatility, sanctions risks (post-2022 Russia-Ukraine), and inflation. Analysts describe it as “reserve optimization” and “financial influence,” not aggression. China promotes its Shanghai Gold Exchange (SGE) for international storage (e.g., to Cambodia), aiming to become a bullion hub, but this enhances participation rather than monopolizes supply. Gold supply isn’t limited by China—global mining output (3,000-3,500t/year) is distributed, and China’s buys (27t in 2025) are modest relative to total demand (4,500-5,000t/year).
- Silver Context: China dominates refined silver (70% of global traded volume) and implemented export licensing in January 2026 (44 approved exporters, up from 42 in 2025), which tightened supply and fueled price rallies. However, this is framed as “resource nationalism” to secure domestic industrial needs (e.g., solar, electronics, AI), mirroring US critical minerals lists. It’s not a full ban—exports continue, but controlled to prioritize China amid US tariffs and global shortages (silver in 5th straight deficit year, ~200-300m oz shortfall in 2025). Prices surged due to combined factors: Chinese buying ( physical bars/coins surge), industrial demand, and low inventories, not isolated manipulation.
- Dollar Destabilization Angle: Price skyrockets (gold to $5,100+/oz, silver to $117+/oz by early 2026) are attributed to multi-faceted drivers: US rate cuts, Trump-era trade wars, debasement trades (fleeing bonds/currencies due to $38T+ US debt), and global CB buying (845t projected for 2025). China’s actions amplify but don’t cause this—e.g., foreign CBs now hold more gold than US Treasuries, signaling a natural shift from dollar assets. Speculative theories (e.g., “weaponizing” silver) exist in fringe discussions, but mainstream data shows China’s focus on self-protection, not attack.
If anything, high prices hurt China’s own jewelry/electronics sectors, suggesting the strategy isn’t purely inflationary.
No widespread government-led advertising campaigns are evident in 2025-2026 data. However, indirect promotion occurs:
- PBOC monthly purchase announcements (e.g., 14 in 2025) “encourage retail investors,” boosting bullion/ETF sales. Relaxed import rules (September 2025) and pilot programs for insurers to invest in gold (February 2025) signal approval, driving household demand (savings rate ~31%, gold as alternative to weak stocks/property).
- Retail surge is organic: Queues at dealers (e.g., Hong Kong 2026), ETF inflows from economic uncertainty. Banks/state media highlight gold as “safe-haven,” but no mass ads like consumer subsidies.
How should the US respond to China’s gold de-dollarization?
Potential steps:
- Boost Reserves/Diversify: Resume gold/silver accumulation (speculative ideas like 500t silver stockpiles for “economic weapon” vs. China, but unconfirmed). Promote US mining (US #4 gold producer) and ally supply chains (e.g., Australia, Canada for rare earths/silver) to reduce China reliance.
- Fiscal/Monetary Strength: Address $38T+ debt (debt-to-GDP surging) via spending cuts/inflation control to bolster dollar confidence. Avoid debasement trades that fuel gold rallies.
- Trade/Policy Levers: Tariffs on Chinese goods (e.g., 100% threats in 2025), but this risks escalation. Negotiate deals pausing export controls (e.g., November 2025 US-China talks). Invest in alternatives (e.g., critical minerals lists, subsidies for domestic solar/electronics).
- Broader Alliances: Cooperate with allies on diversified reserves (e.g., Europe dumping US bonds for gold). Long-term: Strengthen global dollar role via stable policies.
Context on China’s De-Dollarization Efforts in Latin America
China is actively pursuing de-dollarization globally, including in Latin America, as part of a broader strategy to reduce reliance on the US dollar and promote the renminbi (RMB). This involves increasing gold reserves—China has been one of the largest buyers of gold in recent years, with its reserves reaching over 2,264 tons by early 2024—and encouraging trade settlements in non-dollar currencies.
Conclusion
To end this article I’ll explain why you see a promotion of Digital Dollar Alternatives. AI software (supercomputers not LLM) encourage adoption of US-backed stablecoins like USDT and central bank digital currency pilots (CBDC) to counter the unpayable deficit ~$50T and attempt resolution of de-dollarization by the East.
If you gauge how this works via computer data you’ll be told it works for both laundering money, destabilization, and countering countries that have a 5x population and superior surplus of gold and silver. Of which just surpassed the US Dollar for foreign Central Bank Reserves.
Logistically the US cannot compete against a 2B population compared to a less than 350M population. In any gaming scenario you’ll find the defeat is overwhelming from a logistical (non-war) geopolitical arena. Thus, crypto is viewed as leveling the playing field – modernizing payments while maintaining dollar hegemony, countering China’s digital yuan push and appeals to incubated tech-savvy markets in Latin America who are fully engaged with crypto.
If currency becomes all virtual “fake-backed” use then real world commodity consumption (gold, silver, crops, plastic) have no bearing on pricing, or limited volatility. Entity can simply determine the pricing based on things that don’t exist, if, the big IF, people decide to use those things that don’t exist. Paper money doesn’t cut it since “it exists” whereas virtual money is keystrokes.
You might say bitcoin exists, you have it in your wallet and it’s currently worth $84,293.00 (now down to $70k). But can you hold it?
You can unlock BTC coins by hacking sha-256 and you can log into your Xbox and play a virtually game that looks fairly real. You can cash out the BTC for actual paper money, which is more real than the BTC. The bottomline is if people don’t use it then it has no value. You can pick hundreds of alt-crypto coins that people trade daily, but no one uses them and more than likely they’ll end up worth nothing. I’m not against crypto, I’m merely explaining that the purpose is to generate a currency out of technical means, using paid for equipment (servers that hack sha-256) to make something that you cannot hold unless someone is willing to give or trade real world stuff for.
Paper can be denied, or eschewed. A country can choose not to accept “paper” as payment for products. They can also team up on you with other countries once your debt is too big and say, “I’m not taking your funny money, we want gold or silver,” since they know you don’t have it. This is weaponizing commodity against paper derivatives, or dollars. Just as was done with oil by OPEC in the 1970’s.
However, once commodity is removed as currency tied to substance, or real world materiel, then countries will have no choice but to compete with accepted “virtual” things that people decide to use.
The rule is, “if people use it and it circulates” you have a currency, whether bottlecaps, stablecoins, paper money, gold, or Pokemon trading cards. The trick is getting people to use it. Forced use does not pan out well if there is a universal rejection. There must be an accepted use, as a trend, where people may not necessarily like it, but it provides benefits other than a forced use that pisses them off everytime they look at it.
Imagine everything switching to Central Bank Digital Coin (CBDC) on a 1:1 ratio “stablecoin” with each coin tied or tethered to the US Dollar. We would still be in the same boat with China deciding whether to accept payments in CBDC “virtual money” to hold in a wallet and convert to their digital yuan. Why would they do so? They could simply divest completely while States like California scrambled to make a deal with them for accepting other monetary measures.
The point of CBDC is to eradicate the trillions of debt that cannot be paid. You can wrap the debt into virtual contracts, since their virtual and dont really exist and then demonetize the contracts through various measures. Every country engaged in crypto is completely aware of this plan and are taking measures to counter their losses. So again, right out of the gate the purpose of digital assets were to fork assignat or paper derivatives that wold come to a conclusion. Bitcoin had to slowly become popular and valuable to make it legitimate, stable, and viable for trade markets to have consumer confidence. It had to be trendy and hip so people would “use and circulate” all for the purpose of course for alternative virtual solutions to debt that can never be repaid.
I would say BTC is an intelligent debt derivative which only took ten years to become an actual accredited traded “currency.” A 10 year plan. Just like a 10 year treasury note. Not bad.
The crypto trading market has been developed – slowly, but not properly. Too many leaders have abused the system by using crypto to enrich themselves, carpet pulling the public, pumps and dumps, to where day traders understand it can all be used as fraud by the whales manipulating it. So the pushback against CBDC has already been established through greedy morons who screwed that up right out the gate for anything centralized.
So there must be psychological interplay here for humans, not just a CBDC that we are told, “This is your new currency” when any state in the union can say “Hey I’m going to produce the Buckeye coin, the Wolverine coin, or the Gators coin,” as any state can make a crypto currency. It’s simple to do and easily backed by State revenue. So therein lay the problem is that you kinda have to be interested in the “new dollar” as use.
If they do something to wipe out paper as a trick to get you to use CBDC, or totally forced in use via “hand in your dollars, cause we say so,” that generates pushback, which limits circulation. Other countries will use that to sew strife and further division amongst the population, so it’s a very tricky situation here.
Again the use must be accepted, a benefit for the use – people like to touch and hold things, feel it in their hands. Or there must be a large onset like matching a thousand dollars with two thousand crypto dollars for people to be trading what they know is enslavement to further debt systems.
What is factual is that time is running out for paper currency as China and their allies hold the cards when it comes to actual commodity and the ability to manufacture goods with a large population and industry. And the fact that the money-changers have pissed off the population through greed and irresponsible fiscal management, enriching themselves while actively debasing and making the poor grow in scope and debt. Credit cards issued at 40% really was the litmus for the demise if we chart this on a graph.
I would say they don’t deserve to run anything as systemized functions or responsible care. They have proven they’re not capable of managing wealth let alone societal function. Wealth management should be delegated to responsible caretakers, not greedy philosophical monarchs who believe everyone exists to serve their needs or are subhumans that require net-zero ferility growth while being systematically poisoned, brainwashed, and divided.
So the ship has sailed there and the American people, according to polls, fully understand who their enemies are.
I see it two ways – responsibly they can relinquish control or be forced to relinquish control as Moores law determines the outcome as we go with technology. I’m just being honest here with what I see as future scenarios. Either way it will be a fight to the end of society in that regard from here on out. The have-nots fighting the haves, unless the ruling class wants to share the pie with the “degenerates.”
Threats and censorship only reinforce the dug in heels and determination, so I think they know it’s over, but don’t want to believe it and will simply hang on through use of force until they can’t, or until Special Forces, the military, or intelligence agencies jump on the bandwagon after realizing there is no other way to go here due to technology increase.
Once they divide and engage in force, or commit to attacks, that will be the end of the republic, or this democratic experiment. And I really don’t see any other scenario here where they can maintain control without things going sideways. I mean it would be best to share the pie with the mob at this point to alleviate the fuming steam. Cranking up the stress meters guarantees an eruption and in that eruption you’ll have alot of your own people committing to mutiny, which could turn the tide for your demise.
The only thing that remains is whether factions running government (not we the people) decide to massively eradicate or force the population to do what they want, while everyone fights them, as I see it. However, they can choose to be responsible and keep some sort of power and control by openly setting up new systems where people are in control of the monetary systems and direction of some government. Quite honestly it’s their only hope – the other avenue is just destruction of everything and is the forecast pretty well known at this point in time.
You can’t have one without the other – your pie and eat it too. Only the delusional believe they can, but anyone who is a bean counter with intelligence knows that the end results will be your demise on paper.
The controllers see or are told the same thing by their computers so there is no ignorance here on the subject. The only difference is they have viable plans for control that did not come to fruition which now makes them much more dangerous since they are losing control and may agress to more severe forms of attack. Every major economist is aware of this as well as any billionaire in the know using computers at a high degree running scenarios and chatting this out daily.
Like I said the chatter is either leaked, hacked, or whistleblown – so how do you stop what everyone knows? You can’t and they have to face the music.
Guys like Martin Armstrong talk about these things daily, that its over within the next coming years for these groups running things. Every nation is privy on these subjects and why the enemies of America increase the propaganda of “America is falling, the dollar will collapse” as a daily cadence that has been picking up steam for years. They know the same outcomes as anybody else and weapon technology is not going to keep them in power, regardless if they use the weapons on their own citizens or not.
In either scenario, weapons and debt used against the population, creates international pushback, further division and isolation for them. It reminds me of Germany in the 1970’s but the sole difference is Americans are armed to the teeth and want to fight. If you use your weapons on them, it creates resistance, and your vastly outnumbered. They have really tried many, many, social division programs to fracture families and divide and conquer every group that springs up in these attempts to curb what they know is coming and can’t be controlled.
Humanity the world over is now in a position technically where governments and corporations can no longer hide any of the available data, although they continue to try to censor and pretend that none of it exists; like obsolete electric companies when we can generate electricity for ourselves: healing plasma, nuclear batteries, and cell regeneration therapy through natural food recipe.
With the paper debt lingering over the United States and a united understanding that virtual currency derivatives will be used to wipe this debt out sounds great, but those controlling the structure have no intention of freeing you as slaves to their debt models. They currently plan to offer a new cage with better controls as world leaders are fully aware of.
Well, no one wants it. Universally we all want to be free of usury debt models. I think I can speak for every person in the United States and Congress, including Federal law enforcement who are not part of your usury control group that none of us wish to take on another tax/debt system that further controls what we say and our actions by being able to turn off our digital wallets.
There are 330 million people guaranteed against the groups who plan on doing this. We’re no longer waiting for the dollar to change to something else, but anticipating what it can be changed to as a freedom model, without usury debt slavery. The only factions that want a continuance of usury debt models are not American – you’re anti-American and represent slavery.
The usury factions stand against everything the United States represents – freedom of individuals with liberty and justice for all. You are the enemy of the people and everyone knows it. We’re at the cusp of a new financial system, one without YOU, one without the continuance of slavery. Freedom once and for all after a 100 years of slavery debt.
I’ll give you an example here, straight out of the Moores law handbook of your new digital prison, that coupled with CBDC’s i.e., “stablecoin,” will insure your further slavery.
It’s 2026 and in order to file a trademark with the USPTO you need a cell phone. You need to receive several codes to that cell phone to open an account. You need to identify yourself electronically with your drivers license (or wait 2 – 3 weeks), and give biometric data through a selfie. You also need to receive a code via authenticator, which gives access of the data to Google. Right here you have entered the digital prison. You cannot get a trademark in business without accessing a cell phone or email without it being difficult.
Although argued that it has become easier than 20 years ago to get a trademark, one can clearly understand that you can be easily cut off or locked out of access to these trademarks in your time of need. Your entire way of life is tied directly to the square device you carry around in your pocket. It’s your tracking software, your addiction, your dopamine, your re-education, and it’s just the beginning. If allowed if will become the technocratic control vector – a digital wallet. Whereby, a Central Bank can cut off your finances for you speaking ill of any political candidate, any topic deemed “off limits,” or disagreeing with being jabbed with a nano-vaccine.
NO THANK YOU.
We would all – everyone of us – be absolute FOOLS to agree with the installation of such a system let alone go along with any of it. Every Judge, Congressmen, Lawyer, Policeman, Fire fighter, Paramedic, Doctor – YOU WOULD ALL BE FOOLS AND IDIOTS TO AGREE TO BE ENSLAVED BY A FURTHER USURY DEBT SYSTEM. You can choose not to go along with it! Simple as that. Reject it. Make your voice heard. Tell them NO THANK YOU.
As an American you can say, “I don’t know what we’re going to use, but we’re not doing that! So lets figure it out.”
Every Senator has to answer to YOU. Get off your butts and DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. The technocrats are working around the clock trying to install this new debt system since the paper system is going the way of the dodo. YOU CAN STOP THEM, by simply being active, USING YOUR VOICE, and God given abilities.
I guarantee you NO ONE in Federal Law Enforcement, the families of the FBI, or DHS want any of their family members to be enslaved by a new debt system. It’s UNIVERSALLY REJECTED. The only people who want to install this are already filthy rich and DO NOT REPRESENT ANYTHING YOU BELIEVE, or any of your family values. They only want your further debt enslavement and control of your lives.
It’s a choice, don’t be fools.
I would think as Doctors, lawyers, and Judges you would be smart people. Are you smart enough to stop your new slavery, or like fools will you say nothing, do nothing, be nothing, and let your family be destroyed through this?
It’s a choice, one I sincerely hope you take serious and act upon.
The future prospects display integration, transhumanism, bio-chips – a society that is locked out when convenient to quell unrest and disobedience and it’s all a fail. The road we are on is a complete fail. Any data pumped into a computer utilizing these scenarios ALWAYS end society – they ALL fail. So why do it? These are the dreams of SciFi trekkies and they will end in failure.
I’m suggesting we can chart a new course. It doesn’t have to be the mark of the beast system of imprisonment, or at the very least we can delay this outcome for as long as necessary.
Why should a small group of people with alot of assets and foot soldiers be allowed to destroy an entire nation or wreak havoc entirely to where your familes are in danger and can’t walk the streets? As Federal law enforcement, military, and intel agencies why would you allow these groups in monetary and executive control to turn your life upside down, put your family in danger, destabilize the world, and mass kill Americans along with your family?
So at the end of the day it’s going to be a choice for Americans, law enforcement in general, regardless of input, to get the job done and eradicate these entities – these enemies. Those clinging on to control can put all their family members in power, a governor in every state, and fill the Senate, but it still won’t be enough to keep them in control according to Moores law and computer forecast. And again as I said, everyone is talking about this and basically figuring out chess moves to get there. So how do you stop the will of the people? I’m sure there are answers for that, but I’m going to offer advice as I usually do.
You will not maintain control that’s pretty certain at this stage of the game, regardless of any offensive campaign. Setup government programs that open monetary control by the people as it should be. Stop the programs of eugenics and dividing the people based off religious lore. Not everyone understands the nanotech yet, but they soon will. Doesn’t look good for the CEO of a Pharma company. We’re two steps from open rebellion and once that occurs it will be difficult to realign with every faction out there against America.
I’m saying we can offer the people a two-step system. You can keep the digital grid, the cell phones, the infrastructure, but give people the choice of off-ramping – unplugging without consequence. It’s the only way to prolong society as the digital prison is your absolute demise do doubt about it. And with it brings rebellion and chaos.
Just say no to the technocrats, give people the choice, share the wealth, and end the usury debt models. The technocrat model is a fail – they bring down the entire system, they destroy everything. Don’t let em do it.
The foot will not be taken off the gas from here on out with technology. So you better make the right decisions while you still can.
As Americans we can keep this so-called republic going. There are 330 million people who live here and a handful of enemies trying to maintain control. As law enforcement you’re going to have to step up and be responsible – they’ll be forcing you soon to do so and they are completely outnumbered. Which side will you be on?
Remember it’s your neighbors and those next to you you’re fighting to protect – your family, Mother, Father, brothers and sisters – all your friends they plan on mass eradicating if they’re allowed to do it to keep themselves in power to control your life.
I have faith in God and ask almighty YHWH to provide wisdom and power to those in gvernment who wish to be on the side of the people to help them. For those who seek justice, stability, and peace we ask YHWH to bless us and establish us as anchors of power. I ask the Lord of Hosts YHWH to destroy the enemies power of control and usury – remove them from controlling this nation and return the control to the people. I ask the Lord that responsible, ethical, righteous communities rise up and take control over this nation. Groups who have faith in You, the Lord of Hosts, almighty God, Father of Jesus the Messiah the redeemer of mankind. May those who hate You Lord, diminish greatly. Let their power flee from them, let them shrivel up and lose in every scenario. Let their finances and wealth suddenly flee from them and diminish greatly. May they slither back into the darkness. Let your bright light shine for a time, Oh Lord our God, and may your blessings be upon this nation. Let all those in politics rid themselves of filth and disgust, let them abhor evil and those that do such. Let justice prevail over the wicked and let all their deeds be made known, as it is your will oh Lord to display the acts they do in secret. Make them known to the world. May the Lord God, YHWH rise up in power and might and deliver this nation into our hands once more amen.

Gold prices surged to all-time highs in early 2026, driven by central bank purchases amid global de-dollarization trends, geopolitical uncertainty, and expectations of US interest-rate adjustments.
China’s gold reserves increased to 2,303.50 tonnes by Q3 2025 (from 2,298.53 in Q2), reflecting ongoing accumulation as part of reserve diversification away from the dollar.
Chinese firms expanded mining influence in Latin America by acquiring major lithium, copper, and gold projects in Ecuador, Argentina, and Brazil, bolstering commodity access tied to de-dollarization goals.
Latin America remains highly dollarized (19.1% aggregate rate), but emerging markets (led by China) are boosting gold’s share in reserves while promoting non-dollar commodity trade settlements.
China, Russia, and Türkiye show dollar diversification via gold buying since 2000, but most countries (potentially including Latin American ones) use gold for modest reserve diversification rather than full de-dollarization.
China leads de-dollarization through gold accumulation and yuan deals in commodity trade, with Latin American countries exploring regional monetary integration as an alternative to dollar pricing.
Central bank gold purchases (including China’s) surged in 2025, with retail demand in China rising as a dollar alternative, accelerating de-dollarization in the Global South.
The US could promote voluntary dollarization in Latin America to create a dollar bloc, countering China’s yuan promotion via swaps and infrastructure in the region.
US policies risk eroding dollar confidence amid China’s de-dollarization push (including gold and yuan efforts); tariffs and transactional approaches may alienate allies and weaken US primacy in Latin America.
Latin America is central to China’s gold supply strategy, with the CCP acquiring gold via state entities and encouraging extraction/exports (e.g., from Peru), supporting up to 10% of global reserves and reducing dollar dependence.
