There’s a reason Central Banks are buying gold…

Since the creation of central banking in America, I’d say roughly after the American Civil War, the average joe has had to choose between choose to follow the “guy with the gun” over the “guy with gold.”

Most of the time, people prioritize the comfort and security provided by the established power structures.

Unfortunately, money in the hands of the government is a tool for control…

What Brent Johnson calls “the “original matrix” to convert people’s lives into energy for those in power.” (paraphrase).

So, you know there is a reason for Central Banks buying gold purchases are at all-time-highs.
 

The image above points to war – the Russian invasion of Ukraine, but there’s more.

Acquiring gold allows governments to diversify support for their currency. It gives them something else to rely on other than US Treasuries, and fiat money. With gold they back their nation’s currency with a “non-denominational” form of money for the future.

This will ensure that their government can issue bills far into the future and perpetuate itself by continuing to tax the people who use their currency.

That is why gold is now the second most important reserve asset for central banks in the world.

You can see US Dollars going down, and gold going up, below.
 

Lastly, the golden gun is loading.

Slowly, but many Central Banks who get in early will ultimately pay less than others. As the US continues to issue Treasuries, especially for the distribution of stablecoins (and Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill) gold prices will rise.
 

And, gold is in short supply…

That is why the man with gun, your government…

Will do what governments tend to do (and are doing).

They will buy more gold for their Central Banks because they want to be the man with golden gun.

Or, as Brent Johnson likes to say, maybe the man with the BIG GUN, the United State’s, will have its say for a while longer and more Central Banks will pick up Treasuries and dollars for as long the web of control can handle it.
