Although Dr. Hanke's old-school libertarian free-trade focus, certainly including gold, is straight-up and honorable, he may be missing just how fast Central Banking cartels are headed to war with one another. The G30 four hour video you highlighted recently spells that out in the last hour. Carney along with Carstens are fighting for EU WEF Davos group, in general including BoE. The US, particularly under Trump, will run with private Paypal Mafia (ie Musk, Thiel, et al. -- see unlimitedhangout articles for excellent deep dives regarding that) and Tokenization. All are technocratic in any case, but BRICS and their mBridge post-BIS' panicked exit (fear and loathing in Switzerland now taking over) appears to have the soundest and now leading Clearinghouse blockchain wholesale tech ready to launch this year. The rest of the CBDC attempts are scrambled and confused, from this old-timer's in-the-field perspective.
Love your conscious awareness of how all of this is playing out, Lena...
Re Carstens G30 comments at end of aforementioned video, note that he explicitly states that it is his personal preference to have 'control' of digi accounts down to retail individuals although it is not BIS's preference -- at least not necessarily. His term expires in June.
The G30 meeting of CBs discussing CBDC experiences and whether 'private money' aka Stablecoins should be 'allowed' ... see 3hrs in for the juiciest bits...
