What happens to the price of gold if the US Govt converts it into crypto?
Wild idea, you say? Here is the article where I first learned about the Mar-A-Lago Accord and Stephen Miran's plan to deflate away our national debt, while turning America into a protection racket. Wild stuff - but it all has receipts.

Now, this article also mentions something else:
>The US, however, runs a persistent budget deficit.
>So where would the money come from?
>Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has hinted at an answer.
>In February, he said the government could “monetize the US balance sheet for the American people.”
>One way to do this would be to revalue America’s gold reserves.
>The US still prices its gold reserves at $42.22 an ounce.
>If revalued to the market price of around $2,900, it could create nearly $900 billion in new equity overnight.
>This would give the government a new pool of capital without borrowing more money or printing dollars.
>Other assets, including federal land, real estate, infrastructure, and even confiscated cryptocurrency, could also be used.
