Gold Lease Rates Explode as US Repatriation Grows
Bullion banks relied on a game of musical chairs, borrowing gold to meet short-term needs. But when enough chairs are removed—when buyers refuse to lease their holdings—banks are forced to compete for an ever-dwindling supply. That’s what’s happening now. From: Zerohedge Edit-The LBMA Doesn’t Have the Gold
Yesterday, Bloomberg, in an article entitled Gold at Bank of England Trades at Discount as Tariff Fears Drive U.S. Demand describes the current gold market situation. The article states that:
‘Gold stored in the Bank of England (BOE) vaults is trading at a discount to the broader market as concerns over potential Trump tariffs drive a rush for physical bullion. The surge in demand has created weeks-long withdrawal delays, making BOE gold less attractive than metal stored in commercial vaults.’
Bill’s Commentary:
“The whole thing has been a charade for many years. I guess the craziest conspiracy theorists were the most correct?”
INSIDE THE REVOLUTION REWIRING AMERICAN POWER
In Treasury’s basement, fluorescent lights hummed above four young coders. Their screens cast blue light across government-issue desks, illuminating energy drink cans and agency badges. As their algorithms crawled through decades of payment data, one number kept growing: $17 billion in redundant programs. And counting.
“We’re in,” Akash Bobba messaged the team. “All of it.”
Edward Coristine’s code had already mapped three subsystems. Luke Farritor’s algorithms were tracing payment flows across agencies. Ethan Shaotran’s analysis revealed patterns that career officials didn’t even know existed. By dawn, they would understand more about Treasury’s operations than people who had worked there for decades.
This wasn’t a hack. This wasn’t a breach. This was authorized disruption.
