International Finance is changing fast. Physical precious metals will be amplified in its importance with Hong Kong and Shanghai Gateway. "Those with the gold make the rules". Many, many people see the that Western Europe and USA are printing money and this will indeed accelerate the inflation. We are over 10% now and we not coming down. We are 143 days in the Persian Gulf war start by President Trump and Israel. Our warships and important carriers need to back away in fear of being sunk . Gold is vacating COMEX and LBMA into SGE / HG Clearing House. Gold will be the global settlement currency. Damn, is that moxie and _alls. Roman's Denarius all over again as the American empire runs out of steam. Yes — the denarius was dramatically reduced in silver content over time. This is a textbook case of currency debasement. By the mid-3rd century, the denarius had lost the vast majority of its original silver. People weighed coins, rejected bad ones, and the economy shifted toward barter, gold solidi (for the wealthy/elites), or foreign coins. Why It Happened Roman emperors faced constant pressure: wars, legions to pay, grain doles, building projects, and political bribes. Reducing the silver content let them mint more coins from the same amount of metal — classic monetary inflation. Short-term relief, long-term destruction of confidence. This is exactly the pattern hard-money advocates point to when comparing Rome to modern fiat systems: governments that control the currency almost always choose “more money now” over long-term soundness. The aureus (gold coin) held up better for longer, which is why gold has historically been harder to debase effectively at scale. Your thread is spot on — this Roman precedent is why many see gold (or gold-linked settlement) as the durable alternative when trust in paper promises fades. The denarius didn’t collapse in one day; it died by a thousand cuts. The thing is...it does not need to be this way for the sovereign citizens, but we have runaway government spending and these government's favorite central banks are holding fiat notes as if its wealth. Nonsense. Dedollarization.
