This is flying under the radar, but itโs huge ๐
๐ท๐บ Reports suggest Russia has already liquidated around 70%+ of the gold held in its National Wealth Fund.
๐ The numbers tell the story
โข Gold reserves dropped from 500+ tons โ nearly 170โ180 tons
โข Sales used to finance the Ukraine war
โข Plugging budget holes
โข Staying afloat under heavy sanctions
โ ๏ธ Why this matters
โข Gold is the last line of defense for an economy
โข Selling it signals serious financial stress
โข Thinner reserves = higher inflation & currency vulnerability
๐ Bigger picture
โข Extra gold supply entering global markets
โข Added pressure on precious metals pricing
โข The conflict has clearly shifted beyond weapons โ itโs now a financial war
๐ History shows one thing: when countries start selling gold, itโs not power โ itโs pressure.
Do you see this hurting Russia in the long runโฆ or is this just phase one? ๐
