đ¨ GOLD WAR ESCALATES â AND THE MESSAGE IS CLEAR đâ ď¸
âHard assets are power.â Thatâs the warning echoing through global markets right now.
Back in 2022, after the Ukraine war shook the world, Europe froze $244B of Russian assets â mostly paper wealth sitting comfortably in Western banks. The consensus? Russia would be financially cornered.
That didnât happen.
Instead of breaking, Russia adapted â quietly, strategically, and effectively.
While bonds and foreign reserves were frozen with a keystroke, physical gold inside Russia couldnât be touched.
đ The pivot that changed everything:
Since 2022, Russia massively increased its domestic gold holdings, adding roughly $216B in value. No counterparty risk. No foreign custodian. No sanctions switch.
Gold became the firewall.
Now zoom out to gold itself đ
⢠2025: +70%
⢠First 3 weeks of 2026: +10% already
This is why figures like Trump and other U.S. leaders keep hammering the same point:
đ Sanctions hurt paper wealth
đ Real assets survive geopolitics
When money is digital and assets are foreign-held, power is fragile.
When wealth is physical, local, and scarce, power becomes permanent.
This isnât just a rally.
This isnât just about price.
This is a global re-pricing of sovereignty.
đĽ The takeaway is uncomfortable but simple:
Whoever controls real assets controls leverage.
And the global gold war?
It didnât start today â itâs just no longer quiet. đ
