Berlin wants its gold back. Again.

Over 1,200 tonnes of German gold” a third of its national reserves” sit deep in the vaults of the New York Fed, waiting for a country that still trusts Washington.

But the trust is cracking.

“Trump wants to control the Fed, which would also mean controlling the German gold reserves in the U.S.” – Michael Jaeger, German Taxpayers Federation

That’s right. Control the Fed = control the foreign gold it guards. That’s your gold, Germany. Not his.

With Trump’s return on the horizon, German politicians are panicking. Not because they suddenly love sound money. but because they’re finally realizing the U.S. isn’t a vault. It’s a variable.

“The United States is no longer the reliable partner it used to be. Trump is erratic…” – EU MP Markus Ferber

The Cold War excuse for offshore gold is dead. The new war is for control, and #Germany just realized it doesn’t have any.

No official repatriation order yet, just the usual #EU performance art. But make no mistake: the zeitgeist is shifting.

If you don’t hold it, you don’t own it. Ask #Venezuela.

And if you store your sovereignty in a vault run by your geopolitical rival, don’t cry when he changes the combination.

Yes, #Bitcoin fixes this. Again.
