Oh look. BTC went up over the weekend while gold went down, go figure. Not you lucky, your not very good a figuring. At least you make a good reverse indicator.

To start off the week;

1 BTC = 35.815 Troy ounces of gold, over .62 more ounces of gold since the close on Friday.

Gold Surpasses Euro as the Second-Largest Reserve Currency in the World

It happened quietly, out of sight of the Western public as they watched trump and Musk rant at each other over social media. Because what else can the leader of the free world and the billionaire prophet of tech do while the house of cards collapses around them. They can't focus the public's attention on anything positive in the nation, because there isn't anything positive in the nation. Nothing! So they have a very public spat, two kids in the sandpit fighting over a toy.

Consider the World's largest accumulator of Gold over the past decades, China. What's going on there? Listen to the Western media and you'll think it's about to collapse from corruption and financial bubbles but that's the USA not China.

...South China Morning Post writes that China’s broader high-speed rail network has rapidly expanded to 48,000km by the end of 2024, the largest in the world, with plans to surpass 50,000km this year. The train is intended to function as a “point-to-point transport tool” between major cities, complementing existing high-speed rail. At full speed, it could cut the Beijing–Shanghai trip from 5.5 hours to about 2.5

US Metal War: Silver Becomes Strategic as Premiums Explode

I hope you were wise and stocked up when it was cheap Looks like a big bull run coming.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'A') Sudden Dislocation in the Silver Market
Authored by GoldFix for Scottsdale Mint

July opened with an alarm bell. The Exchange for Physical (EFP) premium for silver, which reflects the cost of converting COMEX futures into deliverable metal, surged from near-zero levels to between 60 and 80 cents per ounce. This kind of move does not occur in isolation. At the same time, spot silver jumped more than two dollars, pushing beyond $38 per ounce. These changes appeared within a 48-hour window.

The market had not been showing extreme activity beforehand. There was no retail panic. There was no visible hedge fund blow-up. The sudden dislocation points toward real physical demand. Premiums of this magnitude suggest someone is urgently acquiring silver, and they are willing to pay a steep price to get it now.

The U.S. Tightens Control Over Industrial Metals
This is happening as the United States intensifies its strategic resource policy. A 50 percent tariff on copper imports was announced following a months-long review. The primary objective is to retain domestic scrap copper and soon silver rather than allow it to be exported, particularly to China.

One example of this shift is the development of the Arubus Richmond facility in Augusta, Georgia. This billion-dollar metals recycling plant, currently in phase one at around $300 million, is designed to capture and refine scrap copper within the U.S. border. The metals are intended for use in infrastructure, artificial intelligence hardware, energy systems, and military equipment. The underlying message is simple: critical resources must stay home.

The stupid english government was selling into the boom. Why? to try and keep the physical price down. They have little left and were staking everything on the old system of dollar debt. The BRICS have a surprise for them.

Is Gold Getting Too Pricey? Here’s Where Smart Money Is Rotating Next$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', '
')When gold gets expensive, buyers start looking for better value. That’s exactly what we’re seeing in 2025 in both the bullion market and jewelry buying. Two metals are absorbing the shift: platinum and silver. Platinum has surged over 44% this year, outpacing gold and silver alike. The drivers? A combination of renewed demand and real-world supply stress.

Silver, it's about to crack $US 40. Here, $60 aussie. That's a far cry from 2005 when I was paying about $7.50 an ounce. I was buying coin back then but a lot of one kg bar and they were $250 each. Now they're $2000! Of course on average I paid a lot more for all the bars I bought over the years, but if I sold just 4 or 5 of those early ones I could buy... Shit, I don't need anything, except perhaps a bigger garage for more motorcycles lol. I'll have to think about this. It's a crime not to take some profit while it's so high.
