They won’t audit Fort Knox — because they can’t afford the truth.

There’s far more paper gold than real gold.

• The actual above-ground stock of gold is estimated at about US$12 trillion, roughly 209,000 tonnes. 

• Meanwhile the so-called “paper gold” market (futures, ETFs, unallocated claims) is estimated at US$200-300 trillion or about 20- to 25-times physical. 

• Some analyses suggest the ratio of paper claims to physical availability could exceed 100-to-1 in certain segments. 

Most people believe they own gold — but they’re actually holding a promise on paper, not the metal itself. In a crisis, when many holders demand delivery, the system could crack. That’s why an audit of Fort Knox and the broader physical reserves isn’t just optional — it’s overdue.
