Silver Will Remind Us: We Are Deeply Dependent On The Earth
We live in a world that has engineered distance between us and the physical limits our ancestors once lived inside of. The constraints that shaped generations before us—weather, harvest, transport, salt, fuel, season, strength, distance, labor, time—have been replaced by one dominant modern restraint: money.
Money has become our proxy for limits, the translation layer between desire and reality. But somewhere along the way, we started believing the translation was the terrain. Constraints didn’t disappear—we outsourced them to systems so efficient we stopped noticing their fragility at all.
My husband grew up in a town with no road connecting it to the outside world. When his family wanted to slaughter a pig, they didn’t reach for salt in a pantry. They first rode horses to the salt flats, mined the salt by hand, carried it home, and then began curing the meat. Their survival depended on terrain, season, muscle, and community. Nothing was guaranteed. Everything required presence.

Gold overtakes US bonds as largest foreign reserve asset
Gold has surpassed US Treasuries as the world’s largest reserve asset globally for the first time in 30 years amid rising prices and aggressive buying by central banks.
According to new data from the World Gold Council, the value of gold held by foreign central banks is now approaching the $4 trillion mark, more than their approximate $3.9 trillion holding in US Treasuries. The last time that foreign institutions held more gold than US bonds was 1996.

Bill,
This is getting interesting. The crypto world's eyes have opened to accepting Gold as the only real money.

Stablecoin Titan Tether Wants Gold to Be Used for Everyday Payments—Here's How Tether moved to establish a new unit of account for gold, arguing that transactions denominated in "Scudo" could simplify digital payments. Tether’s XAUT may be worth $2.3 billion, but the stablecoin issuer says it owns much more gold than that. The firm said it held 116 tonnes of gold as of the end of Q3 2025, with that tally valued at nearly $17 billion as of Tuesday. Read more here...

“Some things never change…”
Janet Yellen warns the $38 trillion national debt is testing a red line economists have feared for decades
Two thousand years before the U.S. federal government’s debt crossed the $38 trillion threshold, the Roman Empire faced a similar-looking calculus: a state with increasingly expensive obligations and a very limited appetite for taxes. To pay for this discrepancy, emperors pursued a policy known as “debasement”: gradually shaving off the silver from the coins until the value of the metal became more about its symbol than the metal itself.
In practical terms, it was a way to pay bills without fully admitting the cost. The long-run risk wasn’t just hyperinflation, it was that once people stopped trusting the coin, everything else in the economy became harder to coordinate.

“Full speed ahead for the Great Taking!”
Mass Tokenization of Assets In 2026: Is This a Set Up For The Great Taking?
In the latest episode of the show, we examine the DTCC’s recent announcement that it has received approval from the SEC to tokenize vast amounts of assets in 2026. Whilst this initiative is being framed as a modernization effort, it actually represents a significant consolidation of control when it comes to stocks and bonds, and a further erosion of our property rights.

Whilst we were told digital ledgers and blockchain technology were a move toward decentralized finance, the reality is the exact opposite. That was merely the bait and hook, with Bitcoin being used to keep the masses from asking any difficult questions.

“More silver news…”
Silver Jumps from $95 to $127.45 in UAE. A 34% Glorious Gain in a Day
COMEX silver pricing has crossed the line from distortion into open fraud, and the physical market is now shouting the verdict: the shortage is here, right now. A benchmark that still prints silver in the low‑$70s while real metal is changing hands at $90, $100, $130 and beyond is not “discovering” a price; it is fabricating one.
Theater of the Absurd: COMEX
COMEX still quotes silver in the low‑$70s, while buyers in Japan are paying around $130, Dubai $127 , Kuwait $106, Korea near $97 and Walmart near $90 just to get real bars delivered. That is not a healthy arbitrage band; that is a smoking gun that the so‑called global reference price has been severed from reality. The screen is one world, the vault is another, and only one of them can melt.

“Chris Marcus on silver”
Where The Answers Lie In The Silver Market In 2026
The gold and silver markets were off to a strong start in 2026, with the gold futures up $35 to $4,376, and the silver futures up $3.28 to $73.88.
Although in the time since I started writing the column, the prices for both metals have dropped a bit, and I imagine we will continue to experience this type of volatility for the immediate future.

“A chart of the Weimar experience to start off 2026!”
“the chart below serves as an important reminder of the extreme volatility gold experienced during the Weimar period from 1914 to 1925.”
what i have been saying as well. i peg us at about 1923 just about to enter the most destructive phase of it over 2026.
@TaviCosta
It’s hard to ignore what’s happening with silver recently.
What fascinates me is how few are interpreting this move through a hyperinflationary lens.
Instead, the prevailing narrative is that prices are overstretched and due for mean reversion — a view I strongly disagree with.
The chart below serves as an important reminder of the extreme volatility gold experienced during the Weimar period from 1914 to 1925.
From a price-behavior standpoint, the resemblance is hard to ignore, despite obvious differences in today’s political and economic environment.
Let me be clear:
Silver is not making new highs because miners are recklessly deploying capital or because supply is surging.
In fact, we’re seeing the opposite.
There have been no major discoveries, no meaningful supply response, while demand continues to rise structurally, all while a monetary crisis quietly builds.
This is the kind of price behavior typically observed in emerging markets when confidence in the currency is eroding.
