The Dollar’s Down 99% Since Nixon Temporarily Took us off Gold Standard
Arcadia Economics: 8-20-2025
What if one seemingly temporary financial decision, made decades ago, has profoundly shaped your economic reality today, from the value of your dollar to the global power balance?
That’s the powerful question at the heart of a recent video from Arcadia Economics, featuring the insightful Vince Lanci. The discussion dives deep into a pivotal moment in financial history: August 15, 1971, the day President Richard Nixon unilaterally severed the U.S. dollar’s link to gold.
The Dollar’s Down 99% Since Nixon Temporarily Took us off Gold Standard
Arcadia Economics: 8-20-2025
What if one seemingly temporary financial decision, made decades ago, has profoundly shaped your economic reality today, from the value of your dollar to the global power balance?
That’s the powerful question at the heart of a recent video from Arcadia Economics, featuring the insightful Vince Lanci. The discussion dives deep into a pivotal moment in financial history: August 15, 1971, the day President Richard Nixon unilaterally severed the U.S. dollar’s link to gold.
Dubbed the “Nixon Shock,” this decision effectively ended the Bretton Woods system, which had pegged the dollar to gold and other currencies to the dollar.
Nixon presented it as a temporary measure, a necessary step to combat inflation and foreign speculation. However, as Lanci meticulously details, what began as a short-term fix unleashed a cascade of long-term, irreversible consequences that continue to reverberate through our global economy.
Fast forward to today, and the chickens are coming home to roost. The video highlights how the long-term repercussions of Nixon’s 1971 decision are now manifesting in the erosion of U.S. hegemony and the rise of alternative monetary strategies worldwide.
Central banks globally are sending clear signals: they’re increasingly dumping U.S. Treasuries and, significantly, accumulating gold once again as a core reserve asset.
This isn’t just a cyclical shift; it’s a strategic repositioning away from a system that no longer offers the same perceived stability.
Vince Lanci previews an upcoming, thought-provoking article titled “The End of Free Market Capitalism and the US Debt for Equity Swap.” This analysis suggests that with foreign buyers of U.S. Treasuries retreating, America may be facing a critical juncture.
The U.S. might soon need to explore exchanging equity stakes in its future — meaning, pieces of its economic engine and assets — for the capital inflows it desperately needs. This potential scenario marks a significant deviation from a purely free-market capitalist system, signaling a monumental shift in how the nation might finance its future.
Amidst these macroeconomic tidal shifts, specific market signals offer glimpses of opportunity and change. The discussion also touches upon recent precious metals updates, including exciting news from Argenta Silver about exceptional drill results indicating very high silver concentrations.
Such developments underscore the importance of monitoring market signals, policy shifts, and resource potential in navigating these uncertain economic times.
The Arcadia Economics video with Vince Lanci serves as a crucial reminder that historical decisions have tangible, long-lasting consequences.
These aren’t just abstract economic concepts; they are live, evolving challenges that impact every facet of our financial lives and the global economic order.

Jeff Across this weekend the central bank has been putting a huge emphasis on banking reforms. Why is that? Because Iraq's about to revalue the currency and get back on the world stage...The banking reforms are coming forward because they're ready and timed with the rate changing...
Frank26 The monetary reform education process is being introduced by something they're calling a 'mechanism'. It's my strong opinion that the 'mechanism' is what we call Article 12-2c [of the budget] because 12-2c contains IMO the new exchange rate that they've been using/going to use for the future...
Militia Man Article: "Rafidain Bank confirms: Our agreement with K2 Integrity puts Iraq on the map of the global financial system." The focus on a qualitative leap is likely due to the efforts taken by Iraq regarding compliance, anti-money laundering (AML), counter-terrorism financing (CML), etc...Iraq will not be isolated banking wise from the international system any longer...K2s partnership supports that Iraq is going to make a change to its currency...Completion looks to be set for show time.
Who's The Big Gold Buyer In The US | Andy Schectman
Liberty and Finance: 8-18-2025
Andy Schechtman of Miles Franklin Precious Metals reveals who is truly behind the massive gold buying in the US.
He argues that the buyers aren't everyday investors, but rather powerful institutions and possibly even the U.S. government itself.
Schechtman analyzes the unprecedented flow of physical gold out of exchanges, contrasting this with a public that is at record-high speculation in the stock market.
This crucial divergence, he explains, signals that those with inside knowledge are preparing for an economic reckoning and a continued de-dollarization trend.
Tune in to understand why gold is the asset of choice for the world's most informed players and what that means for your financial future.

Judy Shelton, long associated with calls for a return to sound money, has openly floated the idea of issuing Treasury Trust Bonds tied to gold—potentially as early as July 4th, 2026, the 250th anniversary of American independence.
The symbolism is deliberate: a declaration of economic renewal backed by the one asset that has anchored monetary systems for millennia.
But it may not just be about the future—it could already be underway.
Andy Schectman points to staggering amounts of physical gold quietly being drawn out of COMEX since last November. Over $100 billion worth of gold has moved, with delivery percentages far exceeding historic norms.
For decades, less than one percent of contracts stood for delivery. Now, we’re seeing 100 percent fulfillment in certain contract months, with billions leaving the ecosystem.
The obvious question is: who is buying all this gold? The secrecy and scale strongly suggest that it is not hedge funds or private investors.
The possibility that the U.S. government itself is behind this accumulation cannot be ignored.
Gold Revaluation to $15,000, Here's The Secret Plan For a U.S. Reset
Gold Revaluation to $15,000, Here's The Secret Plan For a U.S. Reset
Daniela Cambone: 8-18-2025
“Gold is heading to $15,000 an ounce,” says former Swiss banker Clive Thompson in this exclusive conversation with Daniela Cambone.
With U.S. debt exploding and interest costs devouring nearly 20% of tax revenues, Thompson argues Washington’s only lifeline is to revalue its gold reserves, unlocking trillions without adding to the national debt.
“It’s the same playbook from 1934,” he warns, pointing to a quiet plan already in motion that could hand the Treasury $3.9 trillion overnight.

Thompson calls $15,000 the “sweet spot” — high enough to ease the debt spiral but not so high as to trigger a dollar collapse. Such a move, he explains, would ignite silver past $100, squeeze America’s creditors, and accelerate a global rush into hard assets.
With Fed rate cuts now certain, COMEX inventories draining, and hedge funds taking physical delivery, Thompson says the world is “waking up to gold’s return as money.”

Now the Fed is Talking about Gold Revaluation
Now the Fed is Talking about Gold Revaluation
Heresy Financial: 8-17-2025
The Federal Reserve has recently published a paper discussing the potential revaluation of the United States’ gold reserves as a means to address the country’s escalating fiscal crisis.
With the US debt-to-GDP ratio exceeding 120%, growing national debt, and a worsening budget deficit, policymakers are exploring unconventional ways to finance government spending without increasing taxes or borrowing more.
One such method is increasing the official value of gold reserves, which are currently recorded at $42 per ounce, despite the market price being over $3,300 per ounce.
Now the Fed is Talking about Gold Revaluation
Heresy Financial: 8-17-2025
The Federal Reserve has recently published a paper discussing the potential revaluation of the United States’ gold reserves as a means to address the country’s escalating fiscal crisis.
With the US debt-to-GDP ratio exceeding 120%, growing national debt, and a worsening budget deficit, policymakers are exploring unconventional ways to finance government spending without increasing taxes or borrowing more.
One such method is increasing the official value of gold reserves, which are currently recorded at $42 per ounce, despite the market price being over $3,300 per ounce.
This revaluation could inject significant new money into the Treasury in a budget-neutral way, meaning it wouldn’t require new taxes or borrowing, but it would essentially be money printing, potentially leading to inflation.
The Federal Reserve’s paper outlines three methods of gold revaluation, each involving adjusting the value of gold on the central bank’s balance sheet and transferring the gains to the government or offsetting central bank losses.
This is not a novel idea; the US has done this before during the Gold Reserve Act of 1934, when the government confiscated gold from citizens and then raised its official price from $20.67 to $35 per ounce to increase spending power.
Currently, a bill known as the Bitcoin Act (S.954) in Congress proposes revaluing gold certificates held by the Federal Reserve to their fair market value.
The act mandates that the difference in value be paid to the Treasury in cash and suggests using this money to purchase Bitcoin within five years.
However, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has publicly stated that the Treasury will not buy Bitcoin, though his statements seem contradicted by the bill’s directives and subsequent clarifications on Twitter, which mention exploring “budget-neutral” ways to acquire more Bitcoin.
The revaluation process is essentially an accounting maneuver that allows the government to print money under the guise of recognizing the true value of its gold. Though this could provide a significant cash infusion, it will not solve the underlying debt problem and is likely to increase inflationary pressures. The video also promotes a live masterclass on trading strategies related to these market uncertainties.
While the idea of revaluing gold reserves to address the fiscal crisis may seem appealing, it is crucial to consider the potential risks and consequences, such as inflation.
Policymakers should carefully weigh the benefits and drawbacks of this approach and explore alternative solutions to address the nation’s financial challenges. Watch the full video from Heresy Financial for further insights and information.

We are entering the final stages of the dollar’s life cycle. The question isn’t if the system changes-it’s how soon.

U.S. Debt Soars Past $37 Trillion, Years Before Expected, “Massive” QE Coming
Daniela Cambone: 8-13-2025
“We’re moving into another massive QE program,” warns Garrett Goggin, founder of Golden Portfolio and a leading gold and silver expert, in this exclusive conversation with Daniela Cambone.
Goggin sees a seismic shift ahead as the Treasury and the Fed work in lockstep to finance ballooning U.S. debt, driving rates lower and flooding the system with liquidity.
“This is truly gold’s time,” he asserts, pointing to a historic setup where overpriced growth assets give way to deeply undervalued cyclical plays like gold miners — some trading at up to a 70% discount to fair value.
With major producers “gushing cash” and retail investor exposure to gold still near decade lows, Goggin believes the sector is primed for a powerful revaluation.
“When Buffett can’t find value in growth, he’ll come for the miners,” he adds, emphasizing that record debt, political spending, and a weakening dollar are “the perfect storm” for gold and silver to go ballistic.

Wed. 13 Aug. 2025 THE U.S. DEBT CLOCK JUST EXPOSED THE FUTURE OF THE FINANCIAL SYSTEM — TRUMP HOLDS THE KEY TO THE GOLDEN AGE …QFS on Telegram
The U.S. Debt Clock has quietly triggered one of the most significant alerts in modern economic history. Federal income tax and corporate tax have (allegedly) vanished from its display. Dogecoin and taxpayer savings now (allegedly) appear in their place. This isn’t a design tweak — it’s a signal. The old debt-based model is dying, replaced by a wealth-driven, asset-backed system that decentralizes control and returns financial sovereignty to the people.
President Trump’s strategy is no accident. Executive orders, crypto reserves, and blockchain integration have been positioned for years to dismantle the Federal Reserve/IRS complex and transition the U.S. toward a Treasury-issued, gold-backed dollar. This shift is powered by blockchain, AI, and quantum technology to create a fraud-proof, transparent financial structure — one free from inflationary fiat manipulation.
The Federal Reserve’s century-long control through debt slavery is (allegedly) collapsing. Globally, nations are breaking from Western central bank dominance, moving to real-asset-backed currencies and decentralized finance. Trump’s policies are accelerating America’s role as the center of this new economic order.
The new U.S. Treasury Dollar will be (allegedly) backed by tangible value — gold, silver, strategic resources — not promises. DeFi platforms and blockchain networks like the XRP Ledger and Axelar will provide instant, secure, borderless transactions, eliminating the middlemen who profited off your labor.
The age of centralized banking is ending. The question is not whether this will happen — it’s how prepared you are to live in a system where your wealth is self-custodied, tax-free, and inflation-proof. The U.S. Debt Clock has shown the roadmap. Trump is holding the keys. The Golden Age is no longer a distant idea — it’s forming in real time.

Frank26 All this talk about the monetary reform IMO is going to lead to the exposure of the exchange rate and the lower notes to you Iraqi citizens very soon. This is very serious what is happening...
Militia Man Article: "The Prime Minister directs the completion of procedures for the first phase of the Development Road project, to be implemented soon." With new countries coming into the picture the value of the development road project has apparently been doubled now. That is powerful! It was great to begin with and now it is even better! It is amazing to watch value go up. Just like the dinar will be amazing to be apart of.
Sandy Ingram Excellent news...found in the mainstream western media. What this means is global investors are watching Iraq more closely than ever...This information is crucial and it's excellent good news for IQD investors...5-year development plan for 2024-2028 numbers are seriously eye popping... 710 trillion Iraqi dinars in total projected revenue. That's roughly $542 billion...Oil revenues alone are expected to rake in about $482 billion of that. What's really interesting is the $60 billion estimated from non-oil sectors...Iraq wants to break away from its heavy dependence on oil and build a stronger, more balanced economy...What caught my eye is how this plan is making international headlines...Iraq is ready to step into a new era of growth...If you're an investor looking for the next big opportunity, Iraq might just be the place to watch.

Chris Vermeulen views the current gold setup as resembling 2007. Back then, stocks reached a marginal new high, while gold quietly began to outperform.
When equities rolled over, gold surged—first clearing a 20% target, then stretching to a 37% rally before cooling off. Over the past two decades, gold has returned 616% compared to the S&P 500’s 421%.
That’s not a minor gap—it suggests a more profound shift in market leadership. Today, Vermeulen sees a bull flag pattern forming in gold, with an initial target of $3,700 and a secondary target of $4,100.

When equities rolled over, gold surged—first clearing a 20% target, then stretching to a 37% rally before cooling off. Over the past two decades, gold has returned 616% compared to the S&P 500’s 421%.
That’s not a minor gap—it suggests a more profound shift in market leadership. Today, Vermeulen sees a bull flag pattern forming in gold, with an initial target of $3,700 and a secondary target of $4,100.
And unlike the five-month run in 2007, he thinks this move could play out in just two to three months. Once it breaks, he expects momentum to feed on itself—emotional buying, crowded trades, and acceleration.
In the short term, gold has taken a hit. It’s posted its sharpest drop in three months as traders dial back bets on a bullion import tariff and optimism over a potential Ukraine–Russia ceasefire trims safe-haven demand.
That followed a brief rally on Friday, which fizzled when the Trump administration left its tariff stance unclear. Vermeulen notes that the “smart money” often moves into miners first. Gold producers are inherently leveraged—a 1% rise in gold can boost profits by 5–8%, and individual mining stocks can swing 20–30% in a single day.
The current market is proving the point. GDX just recorded its best quarter ever, fueled by record gold prices in Q2 2025. In the last three sessions alone, gold stocks rose 4.7%, 2.8%, and 1.6%, while gold itself barely budged.
That’s 33.7x upside leverage—precisely the kind of outperformance that has historically signaled the early stages of a significant gold run. Silver’s rally just hit a pause, but the broader trend still looks bullish.
Chris Vermeulen notes that silver’s price action is far noisier than gold’s. It’s prone to sharp swings — 10% or even 20% pullbacks are normal — so the only way to catch the real move is to take a position and sit through the turbulence.
This week, silver ran into selling pressure near $38.10, snapping a six-day winning streak during Asian trading on Monday. The metal opened last week at $36.96 and closed at $38.26, up nearly 3% and holding close to its highest levels in 13 years.
The larger trend, Vermeulen says, is still intact: higher highs and higher lows. If gold breaks out, silver will likely follow. The next technical target is around $40.80. Even so, gold’s chart is cleaner, with more upside potential — roughly 18% versus silver’s 6%, unless silver overshoots its current range.
That makes gold the higher-probability trade for now. Silver slightly outperformed gold last week — gold was up about 1% — but gold stole the spotlight after spiking to $3,534 per ounce on news that the United States planned to impose tariffs on imported gold bars, shaking up the market.
