How far are we from fractional-reserve gold?

Everything's fine until too many people try to cash in at once.

If you don’t hold it you don’t own it. Wasn’t HBSC on the verge of bankruptcy? They’re a sleazy bank I wouldn’t trust them at all.

I’d buy cryptocurrency before I’d buy digital tokens purporting to represent gold in a vault in Londonistan.

And I will NEVER buy crypto.

Next they’ll be selling options on the tokens and then bundle those up into securities that can be rehypothecated into other financial assets.

And it’s gone (South Park joke).

"generates a permissioned digital representation of clients’ physical gold holdings,”

No, really, it's just as good as the real thing, just lighter. I think I'll pass.🤔
