It means gold would be more per ounce than a bit coin is worth now. And they’d probably try to make ownership illegal again.Ever since all of this hype started again to purchase gold, that was my first thought. All of the fools buying gold would be slitting their wrists if our government demanded all gold possessed in individual hands be turned in for $100.00 per ounce, or even ten times that.

That’s one of the things that would start a civil war.

(2024 is going to be one for the history books, like 1939. And 2025 will be more so, like 1940-1945.)

When FDR did it, it was frozen at the “current” price, in essence.
If they tried it now, they would have to “freeze” it at around $3,400 an oz to keep the people away from their torches and pitchforks.
