He says he will provide you with a debit card too. It sounds quite good and at least it's money backed by something!

Whatever....if you cannot put your hands on it at home, you are nothing but a claimant.

Sounds good... But to me this has a FDR 1933 confiscation, or a Sam Bankman-Fried sharpshooter “I don’t know where it went” vibe about it.

Schiff using blockchain? Clearly, this is evidence that the end of the world is nigh.

Not in your hands…not your gold.

“You’ll be able to buy gold on an app through your phone, the gold will be stored in a vault and then you will be able to effortlessly transfer ownership of gold to people you know or redeem it for physical gold”

how is this different from all the other gazillion schemes that claim to hold “your” gold for you?

the gold will be stored in a vault


Not saying it won’t be, but, many stories about “ the Gold is ( was) stored in a vault”. If you can’t hold it, you don’t own it. Just ask the Roosevelt era Gold owners who had their Gold stored in bank safety deposit boxes...and the bank in California which a few years back the FBI seized all the safety deposit boxes and confiscated all the Gold ( and cash), It took the owners three years and lawsuits to get it back.

I’ve noticed that people who think Gold is fantastic are always selling it.

If gold isn’t in your hand you don’t have any.

Isn’t this the same scheme as Liberty Dollars tried with silver? It was working pretty well, iirc until the federal reserve dropped on the dude because they didn’t like competition from a domestic PM backed currency.

Just no. Buying paper or app gold is not real. Physical gold is the only way to go.

Except of course it always stay in his vault. If it even exists. So really all it’s backed by is Schiff saying “yeah, there’s gold there, promise.”
