The Dollar Is Doomed & Most Will Realize Too Late | Alasdair Macleod

The Dollar Is Doomed & Most Will Realize Too Late | Alasdair Macleod

Liberty and Finance:  7-25-2025

Dunagun Kaiser and Alasdair MacLeod discuss the current state and future outlook of precious metals like gold and silver in contrast to fiat currencies, particularly the U.S. dollar.

MacLeod emphasizes that gold and silver are undervalued, especially when measured against a basket of industrial metals over the long term, suggesting significant potential for appreciation.

He explains that fiat currencies are losing purchasing power, a reality often recognized first by foreigners and last by domestic users who are accustomed to measuring wealth in their national currency.

The conversation also touches on new U.S. legislation, like the Genius Act, which promotes stablecoins backed by U.S. Treasury bills, while banning central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), a move MacLeod believes undermines the global CBDC concept.

Ultimately, they advocate for physical assets as a safeguard against the ongoing debasement of credit-based fiat currencies, urging individuals to understand these shifts for personal financial preservation.

BRICS Tokenizes Gold - LFTV Ep 233

Kinesis Money:  7-25-2025

In this week’s Live from the Vault, Andrew Maguire exposes the seismic impact of BRICS quietly reshaping global trade - by bypassing the dollar with tokenised gold, decentralised systems and physical pricing, as Western media turns a blind eye.

With central banks hoarding gold off-market and BRICS-backed blockchain infrastructure enabling instant, tariff-proof settlement, physical supply is draining fast from synthetic markets, exposing the fragility of the West’s paper-driven pricing model.

Russia Dumps Dollars and Builds Alternative Gold Market - The Freedom Report

Kinesis Money:  7-24-2025

In this episode of The Freedom Report, Rob Kientz dives into Russia’s bold moves to reshape the global gold market—nationalizing major mines, launching a competing gold exchange, and ramping up trade with China.

With global distrust in Western gold pricing and increasing signs of de-dollarization, Kientz unpacks how Russia and its allies are leveraging gold to build economic independence and challenge U.S. monetary dominance.

As central banks accelerate domestic gold purchases and local refining capacity expands, a global shift is underway—one that threatens the supremacy of the dollar, the Treasury market, and the Western financial system itself.

For everyday investors, Kientz offers a sobering warning: the world is undeniably moving toward gold. The implications of this paradigm shift are profound, impacting everything from currency valuations to investment portfolios.

Those who ignore this accelerating trend may find themselves left behind in a rapidly evolving financial landscape. The future of global finance, Kientz suggests, could be denominated not in dollars, but in ounces of gold.

$15,000 Gold Instantly! The Big Gold Revaluation Will SHOCK the World

$15,000 Gold Instantly! The Big Gold Revaluation Will SHOCK the World - Craig Hemke & Clive Thompson

Money Sense:  7-24-2025

Global financial experts Craig Hemke and Clive Thompson discuss the recent surge in precious metals and the growing speculation surrounding a potential gold revaluation.

Clive Thompson suggests gold could be revalued to 15,000 dollars, which would likely send silver prices soaring even more.

Thompson says revaluing gold to 15,000 dollars could raise 3.9 trillion dollars, 10% of US debt, without causing retail inflation. According to him, the new money would likely flow into assets like gold, stocks, and Bitcoin.

Three years ago, in May 2022, the Congressional Budget Office forecasted that by 2025, the interest cost of the National debt would rise from 8.3% of government receipts to 12.1%, a nearly 50% increase.

In fact, the actual figures are turning out much worse than the CBO's forecast.

In 1934, the Treasury realised a 2.8 billion dollars profit by revaluing gold. Once again, the same financial sleight of hand is under consideration, but this time on a much grander scale.

 In his outlook, Craig Hemke notes growing talk of gold revaluation, citing symbolic hints like a gold-themed White House post. He recalls Trump's past remarks about potentially remonetizing the US balance sheet by revaluing its official gold reserves.

Concurrently, Hemke compares gold revaluation to the "platinum coin" idea, saying it matters only if the US buys at the new price. If that happened, Thompson suggests this could let the US outpace China in gold reserves.

According to OCC Quarterly Reports, the Federal Reserve system holds over 54 billion dollars in non-compliant gold derivative contracts that would need to be unwound or properly collateralized under full Basel III implementation.

 Market expert Craig Hemke notes that freezing Russia's reserves and removing it from SWIFT prompted the BRICS to seek alternatives, fearing a similar action. He notes that this move has weakened global trust in the dollar as supply continues to rise.

Clive Thompson adds that US allies fear becoming "enemies overnight" amid Trump's trade accusations. This uncertainty is prompting nations to reduce reliance on the US dollar.

BRICS nations have been particularly aggressive in building gold reserves, with unofficial estimates suggesting that China alone may hold as much as 35,000 tons of gold within state-controlled banks, far exceeding their officially reported 2,292 tons.

 Similarly, Russia's true holdings are estimated to be closer to 12,000 tons rather than their officially reported 2,330 tons.

$40,000 Gold: The Final Reset Has Already Begun

$40,000 Gold: The Final Reset Has Already Begun

GoldCore TV:  7-24-2025

Could the United States revalue its gold reserves to $40,000 per ounce?

This once-unthinkable idea is now gaining credibility as global debt balloons, economic power shifts toward #BRICS, and the dollar’s dominance begins to erode.

In this episode, we explore: Why gold is once again at the heart of global monetary strategy

 How the BRICS nations are systematically de-dollarizing trade

 The deep contradiction between America’s strong dollar and its deindustrialization

The Federal Reserve’s detailed manual on monetizing gold certificates

How a revaluation of U.S. #goldreserves could inject $10 trillion without adding new debt

 We also examine the inflationary consequences of such a move, the idea of the “Great Taking,” and why holding physical gold could be the only way to preserve sovereignty in an unstable system.

With insights from Simon Hunt and others, we look ahead to what the next few years may bring and how individuals can prepare.

JUDY SHELTON SAYS WE NEED TO OPEN UP THE FEDERAL RESERVE AND MOVE TO A DIFFERENT CONSTRUCT

Well said Judy Shelton

Russian precious metals exports to China almost doubled in the first half of the year… $1 billion. Watch closely.

BREAKING NEWS: U.S. TREASURY SECRETARY SAID THE ENTIRE U.S. FEDERAL RESERVE NEEDED TO BE EXAMINED AS AN INSTITUTION

Wow. Big things are happening.

“What we need to do is examine the entire Federal Reserve institution and whether they have been successful…”

Source: https://www.cnbc.com/2025/07/21/treasury-secretary-bessent-calls-for-a-review-of-the-entire-federal-reserve.html

Former Federal Reserve Chairs Ben Bernanke and Janet Yellen jointly warn that the United States’ pressure against its current chief could fuel inflation. The irony here… Everyone has now arrived at the dance.

The brilliant Judy Shelton made a sharp point on CNBC, exposing the dysfunction at the Federal Reserve by highlighting its staggering $900 billion in unrealized losses on its own portfolio.

Gold Telegraph:  Last year, the Federal Reserve had unrealized losses of $948 billion on its bond holdings. Who is counting at this point?

The Treasury Secretary of the United States said this on the replacement of Jerome Powell at the Federal Reserve: “There are several female regional Fed bank presidents and then there are some fantastic women outside the Fed.” Let’s go Judy Shelton

Asian local-currency bond sales reach RECORD. Interesting considering the European bond demand that is happening… The trend is real.

Japan’s 40-year government bond auction generated the weakest demand in 14 years. Look at what happens when the Bank of Japan is no longer at the table buying up everything aggressively. This is why I have always called this situation… “Tragic comedy.”

Imagine observers on Mars seeing the U.S. dollar as the world’s reserve currency… then noticing:

– 125% debt-to-GDP
– 6% annual deficits
– Frequent use of sanctions
– Threats of tariffs
– A country representing just 4% of humanity

What do you think they would say? @elonmusk

https://twitter.com/i/status/1948151895887122872

We talked about:

– Why central banks are quietly hoarding gold
– The slow-motion fall of the dollar
– Yield curve control and debt reflexivity
– How mining is becoming geopolitical power
+ much more.

Chris doesn’t hold back.

GOLD TELEGRAPH CONVERSATION #9 CHRIS LEAVY "If you landed here from Mars and were told the reserve currency comes from a country with 125% debt-to-GDP, 6% deficits as far as the eye can see, sanctions countries, threatens tariffs, and represents just 4% of humanity — you'd ask: why is that the reserve currency?" Chris Leavy is a seasoned voice in global finance.

 He began his career in traditional asset management and rapidly rose to oversee billion-dollar mandates at firms like OppenheimerFunds, Morgan Stanley, and BlackRock. Having served as a senior executive inside some of Wall Street’s most powerful institutions, Chris brings a rare insider’s perspective on how capital, power, and policy intersect.

In this wide-ranging conversation, we explore the future of the U.S. dollar, the return of gold as a strategic asset, central bank behavior, debt reflexivity, de-dollarization, and the geopolitical significance of mining and supply chains in a multipolar world.

 Chris makes a compelling case that dollar hegemony is no longer a feature of strength, but inertia. He explains why central banks are quietly preparing for a tokenized, post-dollar system — with gold increasingly at the center. He also shares personal turning points, including why 2022 marked a shift in his worldview, how mining is becoming a geopolitical lever, and why quantitative easing may not be “free” the next time around. Thank you to Chris for joining me on this episode.

A state-backed Chinese gold producer is emerging as the front-runner to acquire Barrick’s Tongon gold mine in northern Ivory Coast. This deal would be valued at up to $500 million. China continues to swallow up gold deposits.

Wed. 23 July 2025 DEBRIEFING: “HIGH OCTANE SPECULATION” & THE NEW US TREASURY (Rumors)

What if I told you… the Fed building IS the new U.S. Treasury? And they’re already printing new sovereign money under our noses?

Let’s break the spell: They just spent $2.5 BILLION turning the Eccles Building into a fortress — complete with blast-proofing, deep excavation, and infrastructure more fitting for a wartime financial command bunker than a “central bank HQ.”

Meanwhile…The Bureau of Engraving and Printing is (allegedly)  quietly installing cutting-edge currency presses — capable of handling asset-backed notes, polymers, hot-foil security, and high-throughput sheets.

Think: new system, new currency, new rules.
EO 13961? Active.
EO 13818? Active.

Legal cover for asset seizures, continuity-of-government transitions, and a reset of monetary authority outside the old Fed structure.

And here’s the punchline: The actual U.S. Treasury building? Untouched. Antiquated. Symbolic. But Eccles? It’s been turned into Versailles with a vault. This isn’t remodeling. It’s repurposing.

And when the Fed collapses under the weight of its own lies, guess what’s already locked, loaded, and press-ready? A new U.S. Treasury. A new currency. A new era. They’re not just printing money. They’re printing the future.

Restored Republic

Sun. 20 July 2025: PROTOCOLS, Scott Brunswick:

Protocol #1: All banking-related debts wiped out permanently — including mortgages, loans, and credit cards. This is a reset, not a bailout. The system was illigal from the start.

Protocol #2: Income taxes are being abolished. No more IRS raids, no more wage theft. In its place: a 14% flat tax on luxury items only. Food, medicine, housing — untaxed and protected.

Protocol #3: The IRS is shut down. Its agents reassigned to oversee fair taxation under Treasury authority, not corporate fiat enforcers.

Protocol #4: The Federal Reserve is (allegedly) gone. Its monopoly on money creation has ended. In its place: a gold, silver, and platinum-backed Rainbow Currency, immune to manipulation and printed theft.

Protocol #9: Financial privacy is restored. No more tracking, no more spying. Treasury-issued accounts under QFS cannot be accessed by rogue agencies or foreign banks.

Protocol #11: Humanitarian funding is being deployed. Global projects will be citizen-led, not NGO-controlled. Homelessness, food instability, and educational collapse are being addressed with real wealth and infrastructure.

Protocol #12: Redemption of stolen value. ZIM and other sovereign bonds will be honored. Portions for personal use, portions for global rebuilding.

Walkingstick  The ban on dealing with dollar inside of Iraq that's why the value has been increasing.  Everyone inside of Iraq, all these contractors, everyone is going to use the IQD.  They're about to use it on a different level. The statement that everyone inside of Iraq is about to use the IQD, that's the big one.  That's what's going to boost the value of the Iraqi dinar.  That's what's going to give them purchasing power.  But above all things that's what's going to give Iraqi citizens confidence in their new national currency the IQD. 

Frank26  The financial advisor Saleh have told the Iraqi citizens the difference between the official rate of our currency and the parallel rate is now approaching less than 4% and that indicates you've entered the 'conversion phase'...Do you realize how close we are to what they want to accomplish?  This is monstrous...This is phenomenal what we are witnessing.

Kill the Dollar, Save the System? The Secret U.S. Gold Reset Plan

Kill the Dollar, Save the System? The Secret U.S. Gold Reset Plan | Schectman & Makori

Miles Franklin Media:  7-22-2025

Michelle Makori, Editor-in-Chief and President of Miles Franklin Media, sits down with Andy Schectman, CEO and Founder of Miles Franklin Precious Metals, in the debut episode of ‘The Real Story’ to explore what could be the most radical monetary reset in U.S. history.

With the U.S. national debt soaring past $37 trillion and global trust in the dollar crumbling, Schectman reveals a covert plan to reintroduce gold into the U.S. financial system in order to save the Treasury – even if it means “sacrificing” the dollar.

Could U.S. government insiders be preparing to reset the system?

Makori breaks down Schectman’s thesis:

How the BRICS nations are building a gold-backed payment system to bypass SWIFT

Why the U.S. may be secretly stockpiling gold under the guise of national security

And how a gold-backed Treasury bond could be launched as early as July 4, 2026

This is the real story of de-dollarization, gold revaluation, and the silent financial war already underway.

Key Takeaways:

The dollar is being deliberately weakened amid exploding debt and soaring interest payments

U.S. insiders may be preparing a gold-based monetary reset to save the Treasury

Gold imports into the U.S. have quietly surged – who’s buying, and why?

China is rolling out a gold-linked yuan settlement system, bypassing the dollar

The BRICS bloc may have been sabotaged by the BIS, but China is advancing alone

Why the beginning of a new financial system could be less than 12 months away

Mon. 21 July 2025: THE FED IS DEAD — GOLD RESET IGNITES THE GLOBAL UPRISING … on Telegram

The Global Currency Reset isn’t coming — it’s happening now. Gold is exploding. Fiat is collapsing. And the Federal Reserve just lost control. This is the financial revolution they swore would never happen. But it’s here. And irreversible.

Gold is nearing $3,000. Silver just blew past $34. Central banks are hoarding metals while quietly abandoning fiat. Iraq is now ranked 29th in global gold reserves — preparing for what’s next. This isn’t theory anymore. It’s the death of the old world economy.

The Federal Reserve was never about stability. It printed trillions, fueled inflation, and robbed generations. But gold-backed currency can’t be printed. It can’t be manipulated. And that’s why the Fed is finished.

This is the RV. This is the GCR. It’s live. The gold surge signals the fall of fiat. The elites who built their empire on paper money are scrambling — because wealth is shifting. Permanently.

For decades, they lied — telling you gold was outdated, silver irrelevant. But behind closed doors, they were stockpiling both. Now they’ve lost the narrative. The people are waking up.

Trump and Musk are leading a decentralized rebellion. The Fed can’t stop it. The IMF can’t contain it. And Wall Street can’t hide it anymore.

The system is flipping — from fake value to real assets. From manipulation to truth. From fiat slavery to gold freedom.

Hold metals. Drop fiat. Prepare. Because this isn’t a prediction. It’s a reset. And it’s happening now.

Mon. 21 July 2025 The Earth Alliance has established a military-grade financial infrastructure in the Quantum Financial System (QFS). …Nesara Gesara QFS on Telegram

The QFS is a charitable 5D intelligence network that is synchronized via satellites, safeguarded by quantum encryption, and based on a value system backed by gold.

All transactions are monitored. All illicit transfers have been reported. All corrupt actors were exposed. The great audit of human history is this.

Former SWIFT users who moved stolen wealth around the world—bankers, politicians, and technocrats—are now being apprehended in real time. Already, thousands have been taken into custody. Their accounts were frozen. They dismantled their networks.

The majority of the world was completely unaware that QFS was silently recording every action while operating in parallel with the Central Banking System.

Countries must comply with GESARA in order to take part in this new system. This cannot be negotiated. A quantum formula is used to measure each nation’s land resources, population, productivity, and gold reserves. All sovereign currencies will be backed by tangible assets and valued at par after they have been balanced.

Economic warfare is over. No more manipulating currency. The Global Currency Reset is this. Since all values will move in unison, gold won’t fluctuate any more. Debt slavey is coming to an end.

Despite all of their hype, cryptocurrencies won’t make it through this shift unless they are supported by real assets.

Blockchain has already been overtaken.

QFS is (allegedly) alive in addition to being faster. It is (allegedly) controlled by a conscious quantum intelligence, which guarantees that each transaction is genuine, lawful, and deliberate. It substitutes incorruptible digital guardians for corrupted human gatekeepers.

Silver Testing $40 & Gold Races Higher | Greg Weldon

Liberty and Finance:  7-21-2025

Greg Weldon emphasizes that silver is becoming an increasingly attractive asset as economic conditions worsen.

He notes that silver recently tested $40, driven by growing investor demand for protection amid global debt nearing $324 trillion.

 With rising inflation, weakening labor markets, and deteriorating consumer health, he believes investors will shift from traditional equities to tangible assets like silver and gold.

Weldon argues that silver, along with other underowned commodities, may outperform as monetary debasement accelerates and fiat currencies weaken.
