    Gold is a Tier One Asset 2019 - BIS
    Under the Basel III Accord released in March of 2019 by the Bank of International Settlements, Monetary Gold Bullion now qualifies as a Tier 1 asset, and is 100% valued for the purposes of banking viability. Prior to Basel III, only US Treasuries were treated as Tier 1 Assets. International settlements were only done in US Dollars.
    Another point to consider is that under the Basel III Accord, SIFI’s (Systemically Important Financial Institutions) are now “required to quadruple their reserves” when compared to the previous minimum requirements before the banking crisis March 23, 2019. Which Tier 1 asset would you prefer to hold, Gold or US Treasuries, when US Treasuries are losing value at the whim of US politicians. I’d choose Gold and short the Dollar!
    Since that stance taken by the BIS in 2019, the world Central Banks, other than “Western US Dollar Denominated Institutions”, have been acquiring gold bullion by thousands of tons per month through a price differential arbitrage. Gold and Silver both sell for more on the Shanghai Exchange than the London or COMEX Exchanges. Gold is flowing from West to East.
    When the US Dollar is dethroned as the World Reserve Currency, the likely replacement will be Gold. Those Countries with large Gold reserves will be making the decisions on world trade and currency valuations.
    The United States and the Western Euro-NATO countries have not been hoarding Gold and have very low amounts in sovereign vaults. Canada has nothing and Britain is Gold poor as well.
    It may not be long before the BIS (Bank of International Settlements) declares that the US Dollar is no longer a Tier 1 Asset, but now a Tier 2 or Tier 3 asset. This would remove World Reserve Currency status of the US Dollar and countries around the world will have no interest in holding US Treasury Reserves. All of those Debt Dollars would then be traveling back home to hyper-inflate the US Currency into oblivion. The “Great Reset”.
    Think of it as your 850 perfect US Dollar Credit Score being degraded to a marginal 150.

Central to this transformative shift is Linda Wilburn, whose profound comprehension of both cryptocurrency and traditional trading has played a crucial role. her comprehensive investment strategy and dedication to staying informed about market trends position she as an invaluable ally in navigating this new era of cryptocurrency investment...managed to grow a nest egg of around 3.4BTC to a decent 16B TC in the space of a few months..

    Of course financial people dislike gold. It's real, physical, tangible... and limiting. You can't just pull some out of your ear.
    Fiat is a fairy tale. A fiction where wealth is calculated by limitless unsecured debt and real value has no place. It's easy to manipulate and the whole time someone is doing the manipulating, to them, Fiat is the best. When someone else is doing the manipulating, all of a sudden, gold backing is the demand.

    Why store value in gold? Since gold supply cannot keep with actual wealth (asset) creation, its price must necessarily inflate. People would rather store value in real assets like real estate or other property than gold. Fiat currency we created to maintain stable prices otherwise a gold standard would be deflationary. This can be achieved, if the central banks have the will.
