White Swan Collapse Underway: Ed Dowd Warns 50% Stock Crash, Gold Reset & What’s Hidden in Fort Knox

White Swan Collapse Underway: Ed Dowd Warns 50% Stock Crash, Gold Reset & What’s Hidden in Fort Knox

Miles Franklin Metals:  8-4-2025

Michelle Makori, President & Editor-in-Chief of Miles Franklin Media, speaks with Edward Dowd, Founder of Phinance Technologies and former BlackRock portfolio manager, in one of his most urgent interviews to date.

Dowd warns that a housing-led recession is now unavoidable, with stock markets set for a 40-50% crash and banking sector consolidation paving the way for centralized control and a potential CBDC regime.

He calls the coming crisis a “White Swan” event – predictable, visible, and already in motion.

 Makori challenges mainstream narratives on job data, housing supply, and the Federal Reserve’s motives.

Makori and Dowd discuss gold’s role in a monetary reset, if the U.S. is secretly accumulating gold in preparation for this and why Fort Knox may hold more gold than officially reported

Militia Man  Interesting enough on the same day that [huge oil] ship kicked out of [the new] port, the United States reduces tariffs on Iraq from 39% to 35%...Is this symbolic? Yeah.  But in the scheme of things, into the future when they adjust a real effective exchange rate 35% is going to be nothing.  It really won’t be.

Frank26  Right now they’re training the banks of Iraq, their employees, on how to deal with counterfeiting and smuggling...for the security and stability of their monetary reform.  But they’re to using the 3-zero notes to train them with?  ...This pattern is one that you have to respect...There’s no crime against that currency because that currency won’t exist.  So what are you using, the lower notes?  No, they don’t want to show the lower notes just yet.  They’re going to do the lower notes and exchange rate at pretty much the same time...

Frank26   Question:   “How long will we have to exchange?”  That’s up to the CBI but we still have 3 zero notes.  It can be null and void within a specific amount of time but I think they’re going to give them at least a year or maybe more.

Updates on the Financial System, Global Reset, and Currencies for August 2025

Updates on the Financial System, Global Reset, and Currencies for August 2025

Jon Dowling:   8-2-2025

In a recent illuminating podcast conversation with Jon Dowling, esteemed financial expert Lynette Zang offered a profound exploration of the seismic shifts underway in the global financial system.

Her central thesis: the world is witnessing an unprecedented transformation of its monetary foundations, moving away from a traditional fiat system towards something entirely new.

Zang’s deep insights underscore the demise of the current monetary order and the rise of a digital, debt-based alternative, all while emphasizing the enduring importance of “sound money.”

Zang, renowned for her focus on physical gold and silver as stable assets, highlighted their immunity to the inflationary pressures often exerted by governments and central banks. She posits that these precious metals serve as vital safeguards in an economic environment increasingly characterized by currency devaluation.

A critical point of discussion was the recently passed Genius Act. Zang identifies this legislation, which provides a regulatory framework for stablecoins, not merely as a technical update, but as a strategic maneuver to usher in a more digital, debt-driven financial environment.

The underlying implication, she warns, is that this digital transition is designed to mask the inevitable hyperinflation that will accompany the unwinding of the current fiat system. The move towards digital programmable money and corporate-issued stablecoins is a significant step in this direction.

Zang and Dowling dissected the Federal Reserve’s current policies, particularly the decision to hold off on immediate interest rate cuts. This, Zang posits, is part of a larger economic manipulation, playing into the “dying status” of the U.S. dollar.

She introduced the concept of a “melt-up” phase in markets – a period where asset prices experience exponential surges before an inevitable crash. This scenario aligns perfectly, in her view, with the transition to a more controlled, digital financial landscape.

The conversation also touched upon the real estate market, noting a cooling in historically hot areas. Zang drew parallels to past economic crises, predicting a significant shift in housing values in the coming months, which she sees as coinciding with the broader monetary reset.

Perhaps the most eye-opening prediction was the strong likelihood of a substantial gold revaluation, potentially soaring to $15,000–$20,000 per ounce, or even higher.

 Zang views this as a crucial mechanism to address colossal national debts and restore a semblance of fiscal responsibility. Gold, she stressed, remains the ultimate fair measure and store of value, indispensable for any meaningful monetary reform.

Silver, too, is poised for a historic price run, with ongoing physical repatriation and persistent market manipulation being key factors.

The conversation seamlessly transitioned to geopolitical shifts, specifically the rise of the BRICS coalition. Zang highlighted its growing influence in global trade and finance, directly challenging U.S. dollar dominance and fostering a multipolar currency system backed by real assets and commodities.

She reiterated that while all fiat currencies are fundamentally devaluing, gold remains the ultimate currency metal – a foundational truth in a world seeking tangible value.

Interestingly, Zang and Dowling emphasized the importance of inclusivity across different financial communities – cryptocurrency, precious metals, and traditional fiat – to effectively navigate the impending transition.

The discussion also delved into potential political dynamics, including the role of figures like Judy Shelton in advocating for a gold-backed monetary system and the eventual phasing out of the Federal Reserve.

The podcast concluded with a powerful call to action: individuals must prepare, diversify their assets, and educate themselves on these profound shifts.

 Zang highlighted her ongoing educational efforts and community initiatives, all focused on promoting sound money principles and fostering community resilience.

Lynette Zang’s expertise, particularly in precious metals, offers a grounded perspective on how gold and silver remain critical safeguards amidst hyperinflation and currency devaluation.

This extensive conversation with Jon Dowling serves as an essential guide to understanding the seismic shifts occurring in global finance, stressing not only the challenges but also the emerging opportunities for those who are informed and prepared.

US Gold Reserves Cover Just 2% of Soaring Debt; Default Risk Greater Than We Know!

US Gold Reserves Cover Just 2% of Soaring Debt; Default Risk Greater Than We Know!

Daniela Cambone:  8-1-2025

“The U.S. Treasury’s gold reserves are at one of the lowest levels in 90 years,” says Tavi Costa, partner and portfolio manager at Crescat Capital, joining Daniela Cambone on the Daniela Cambone Show.

“At just 2% of total government debt, this imbalance is a green light for long-term gold investors.” Costa warns that rising U.S. debt, surging interest costs, and the likelihood of dollar devaluation will eventually force the government to either buy more gold or revalue it, a move he believes could unlock massive upside for the metal.

“The world is accumulating gold, and the U.S. will have to join in,” he says. Beyond gold, Costa shares why the AI arms race and a coming infrastructure boom could reshape the U.S. economy, creating major opportunities in raw materials and engineering sectors.

$4000 Gold & $75 Silver By Year End? | David Hunter

$4000 Gold & $75 Silver By Year End? | David Hunter

Liberty and Finance:  8-1-2025

David Hunter predicts a parabolic rise in the S&P 500 to 8,700 by year-end 2025, marking the final leg of a 43-year bull market. He anticipates a severe global financial crisis in 2026, with an 80% bear market driven by excessive leverage and global debt.

Hunter remains bullish on precious metals, forecasting gold at $4,000 and silver at $75 within months. He expects massive Federal Reserve intervention, including a $20 trillion balance sheet increase, to counter the crisis.

 Post-bust, he foresees hyperinflation (20-25%) and soaring commodity prices by the early 2030s.

RV Excerpts from the Restored Republic via a GCR: Update as of Sat. 2 August 2025

Compiled Sat. 2 August 2025 12:01 am EST by Judy Byington

Judy Note: Deadlines come and go with the Global Currency Reset and people often get discouraged – but it’s only because we don’t know what’s really going on.

President Trump gave the banks until last Mon.28 July to be set up in the new system – and evidently they were in 210 countries.

Jennifer Fallaws said that we had new rates on the bank screens on Wednesday. Rates must be within an agreed upon range to post to public screens. If they are in range, they will post the rate changes.

Adam Stephens said, “The tariffs go into full effect at 12 midnight EST. 9pm PST on Fri. 1 Aug. Vietnam container ships have been awaiting the new tariffs and also the new currency of Vietnam in order to download on the dock.

Trump gave those countries until Fri. 1 Aug. to have their currencies revalued if they wanted to participate in trade.

If you think about it, we’re right on schedule.

Below is an update from a very valid source:

Fri. 1 Aug. 2025: CONTINUATION: THE FINAL SEVERING … on Telegram:

Meanwhile, behind the veil, the Global Currency Reset is (allegedly)  being finalized. – Gold-backed currencies have been mirrored into QFS nodes – Debt instruments nullified through sovereign treaties – Hidden wealth and stolen assets seized for redistribution – Redemption centers are secured and synchronized

The transition is not coming. It has already begun.

The Global Military Alliance is not a theory. It is active. They have reclaimed the codes. They have retaken the vaults. They are preparing the world for the post-fiat reality — a system of value, truth, and natural law.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fri. 1 August 2025 The Quiet Reset Begins…(allegedly) Tucker Carlson

While the world scrolls, argues, and yawns through the noise of engineered headlines something massive is unfolding — in complete silence. The Revaluation (RV) of global currencies is not coming with fireworks. It will not be broadcasted by legacy media. There will be no banners, no alerts, no celebrity tweets. It will simply begin. Quietly. Precisely. Irreversibly.

Behind the distractions of global theater, the Quantum Financial System (QFS) is already breathing. It doesn’t wait for permission. It doesn’t announce itself. It verifies, records, and mirrors every movement of energy and value with a precision no man-made system could ever match.

This is not a “plan.” It is code already executed — waiting only for its moment of visible sync. And in that moment, every screen will show the same number. Every ledger will blink in unison. The old system is not collapsing. It is being bypassed.

And what of NESARA / GESARA? It will not arrive as a dramatic headline. It will emerge as a protocol, a shift, a subtle restoration of balance so undeniable — the world will feel it before it understands it. Debts dissolved. Taxes restructured. Sovereignty returned. Not promised. Not debated. Activated.

It won’t knock. It will override. There will be no press conference. Only stillness. And then movement.

Canada is already rumbling beneath the surface. Encrypted flows and mirrored accounts whisper the truth — “We’re already in it. You’re just not meant to see it yet.”

The question was never if. It was always how long can they hide it? So ask yourself: Why the silence? Why no warning? Why now?

Because this is not a show for everyone. It’s a frequency. It’s for the ones with ears to hear and eyes to see — those who never needed a stage to know the truth. Those who understood long ago that the end was never chaos — it was recalibration.

And the final phase won’t be a bang. It will be a pulse. When it happens, it will already be done. Not everything will be televised. Some revolutions happen between heartbeats.

China Quietly Pushes Yuan Towards Gold Ft. London Paul - LFTV Ep 234

Kinesis Money:  8-1-2025

In this week’s Live from the Vault, Andrew Maguire welcomes Sirius Report’s London Paul to examine how BRICS nations are accelerating regional trade in local currencies, quietly anchoring the Chinese yuan to gold and driving global demand for physical gold and silver.

 As the US struggles to contain this monetary shift, both experts unpack a growing Eastern-led financial realignment that threatens Western currency dominance and signals the early stages of a gold-backed settlement system designed to rival the dollar’s global role.

Tokenized Gold Could Out-yield Treasuries - ‘Genius Act’ Ushers New Dollar Era | Sergey Nazarov

Tokenized Gold Could Out-yield Treasuries - ‘Genius Act’ Ushers New Dollar Era | Sergey Nazarov

Kitco News:  7-31-2025

Sergey Nazarov, Co-Founder of Chainlink and one of the most influential voices in digital-asset infrastructure, joins Jeremy Szafron for a high-impact discussion on the GENIUS Act, stablecoins, tokenized Treasuries, and whether gold on-chain can out-yield government bonds.

 Nazarov says Washington’s new law is “the best trajectory the U.S. dollar has ever been on” and predicts the stable-coin market will jump from $200 billion to $2 trillion.

In this Kitco News interview, Nazarov explains why tokenized gold could generate yield, how Chainlink’s CCIP is already settling cross-border value between ANZ Bank and Fidelity International, and why retail CBDCs are off the table in America.

With Wall Street warming to stable-coins, sovereigns racing to adopt on-chain settlement, and gold buyers eyeing new yield mechanics, Nazarov lays out a roadmap that has hedge funds - and central banks - paying attention.

$150 Billion of New Money into Gold? Basel III Changes Everything

$150 Billion of New Money into Gold? Basel III Changes Everything

Commodity Culture:  7-28-2025

A recent insightful discussion on Commodity Culture with Jesse Day, featuring Trey Wasser, CEO of Dryden Gold, delved into the transformative forces shaping the gold and digital currency landscapes, alongside exciting updates from Dryden Gold’s exploration efforts.

The conversation revealed a bullish outlook for gold, driven by unprecedented institutional demand and innovative financial integration.

A cornerstone of the discussion was the seismic impact of Basel III regulations. As of July 1st, 2023, these regulations have reclassified gold as a Tier-One asset for U.S. banks, putting it on par with U.S. Treasuries.

This pivotal change is anticipated to unleash a tidal wave of new institutional demand, potentially channeling up to $150 billion into physical gold reserves as banks diversify their balance sheets.

The expected outcome? A significant boost to gold’s liquidity and price stability, solidifying its role as a bedrock financial asset.

Transitioning from traditional finance to the digital frontier, the conversation navigated the implications of the Genius Act. This landmark legislation represents the first major U.S. move to formalize a regulatory framework for digital currencies, particularly stablecoins.

 By providing clarity and oversight for the burgeoning $250 billion stablecoin market, the Act strategically supports the digital dollar, aiming to extend the U.S. dollar’s global reach, especially into developing and unbanked regions.

Crucially, the emergence of stablecoins – particularly those backed by U.S. Treasuries and gold – creates a fascinating synergy. These digital assets are effectively becoming new buyers of physical gold, thereby fostering fresh demand and intrinsically weaving together the digital currency and precious metals markets.

A compelling example of this integration is Tether’s recent acquisition of a 51% stake in Elemental Royalties, a move that starkly illustrates the deepening connection between the crypto and gold sectors.

Amidst these macro-level market discussions, Trey Wasser offered a compelling update on Dryden Gold’s exploration progress. The company recently secured a $7 million financing, empowering them to significantly advance their drilling program.

A highlight is the major high-grade gold discovery at their Gold Rock target. This discovery is particularly intriguing due to its geological complexity, featuring multiple stacked gold-bearing structures with no surface expression – a characteristic reminiscent of Ontario’s prolific Red Lake camp.

The Commodity Culture episode painted a vividly bullish picture for gold. The confluence of Basel III’s reclassification of gold as a top-tier asset, the Genius Act’s regulatory framework for stablecoins creating new demand, and Dryden Gold’s impressive high-grade discoveries collectively signal a transformative period for the precious metal.

These developments are not only generating unprecedented institutional demand and fostering synergies between digital finance and physical gold but also highlighting emerging success stories like Dryden Gold in promising gold districts.

For a deeper dive into these pivotal developments, viewers are encouraged to watch the full Commodity Culture video.

Mon. 28 July 2025: EXECUTIVE ORDERS ACTIVATED.

The $2.5 billion “renovation” of the Eccles Building was never about modernization — it was a military-grade transformation. The former Federal Reserve HQ is now a financial fortress: hardened, excavated, reinforced, and equipped with biometric-controlled infrastructure.

 Hidden behind bureaucratic language is the reality of two live Executive Orders — EO 13961 (Continuity of Government) and EO 13818 (Global Asset Seizure). These aren’t symbolic. They are the legal backbone of a complete financial reset.

While the public still looks to the U.S. Treasury building for signs of monetary leadership, the real seat of power has already shifted. Eccles is now the operational core of America’s future currency. Quietly, without public debate, Congress, or media attention, monetary control has been relocated and weaponized.

What appears to be a building upgrade is actually a wartime transition — the final phase in a complete dismantling of the old fiat structure and the silent construction of a new sovereign system.

Inside Eccles and the Bureau of Engraving, the old dollar is being replaced, not reprinted. New hardware is being installed — not for traditional currency, but for asset-backed notes: polymer, encrypted, biometric-embedded, ready to be collateralized with gold, oil, or rare earth elements.

These machines aren’t for modernizing fiat. They are for producing sovereign instruments under the laws of war and national emergency. This is the legal and operational extinction of debt-based money.

The reset will be fair & transparent. Legacy banks, foreign stakeholders, and fiat profiteers will be locked out.

 The new system won’t run on leverage — it will run on collateral, constitutional law, and national security protocols. What was once a privately steered economy will become a sovereign, state-issued monetary domain.

 The age of endless credit, inflationary theft, and offshore manipulation is closing. The Eccles vault is being sealed — not just physically, but politically and financially.

This is not preparation. This is execution. This is not theory. This is command. The United States is not updating its dollar. It is abolishing the old model and asserting full-spectrum control over the next era of money.

You don’t spend $2.5 billion on symbolism. You build a fortress when you plan to wage — and win — a war. Monetary sovereignty is no longer a vision. It’s happening now, under your feet, behind silent walls, powered by orders already signed. And the world has no idea what’s coming.

Frank26   [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report]   FIREFLY:  Sammy was just here talking about how back when Shabibi was governor of the CBI he said when the inflation was around 2% and the note count was down and when the parallel market is close to 2% that was the excellent time for the rate change to happen.  FRANK:  I remember that well.  FIREFLY:  Inflation is at 1.5%. That's under 2% and we have a ton of folks now on the cards and the electronic system.  We  have less notes out there.  And the parallel market is around 4% to 5%...maybe within 3 weeks that gap will be at 2%.  FRANK:  I believe we are either at 2% or very close to it...Everything is in perfect condition for the new exchange rate.

Jeff  I want to bring forward some old information forward...I think this is very important...Shabibi is the founding father of this whole investment.  He was put in place by Bush Jr...One of the things he said clear back in 2011...Iraq should...reduce inflation to no more than 2%.  Right now their inflation is at 1.5% so that's in range. It says, reduce the note count.  They already have.  They've got most of the citizens into the banks to get them to transition to debit cards...Monitor the parallel rate.  That's the big one... 'Establish a close match between the parallel market rate and the CBI official rate of the dollar +/- 2%'.  Right now they are within 4% to 5%...It could hit within that 2% threshold...by the end of August.

Japan’s Inflation Crisis Could Trigger The Next Global Bond Meltdown

Daneila Cambone:  7-28-2025

This is a very difficult, fragile situation,” says Peter Boockvar, editor of The Boock Report and CIO of OnePoint BFG, reacting to the tense exchange between Donald Trump and Fed Chair Jerome Powell last week.

 “Beating down the Federal Reserve Governor is not going to get you what you want.”

In today’s interview with Daniela Cambone, Boockvar warns of rising global yields and why investors should “watch JGB yields every morning,” pointing to Japan as a key driver of long-term U.S. interest rates.

“There is an aversion to taking on too much duration in sovereign bond land... and that is a big deal.”

On gold, Boockvar explains why he expects another year of massive gold buying: “They are further diversifying their reserve holdings and want to own less dollars… Gold is now number two in that reserve pie.”

"Major Move Incoming – If You Own GOLD or SILVER, WATCH THIS NOW!" – Andrew Maguire

"Major Move Incoming – If You Own GOLD or SILVER, WATCH THIS NOW!" – Andrew Maguire

Finance Log:  7-26-2025

China is rapidly advancing a complex and multi-layered gold acquisition strategy that is quietly but decisively reshaping the global financial order.

Renowned precious metals analyst Andrew Maguire emphasizes that Beijing’s ambitions extend far beyond simply hedging against the fluctuations of the U.S. dollar.

 Instead, China is strategically positioning gold as the cornerstone of a new multipolar financial system—one that is firmly backed by tangible assets and designed to operate independently from Western financial institutions and sanctions.

Over the last decade, China has methodically shifted vast quantities of physical gold away from dominant Western paper markets, including London and COMEX, transferring these reserves into tightly controlled domestic vaults, state-owned banks, and military-related entities.
