What if a U.S. Treasury bond could be paid back in gold?

Judy Shelton has proposed a long-term bond that, at maturity, can be redeemed in dollars or in gold. What makes it worth watching is that she was recently appointed counselor to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. An idea like this now has a voice close to where Treasury policy is made. And We Know

Faster, more efficient payments sound like progress.

But the word to watch is "programmable." Six Canadian banks are jointly exploring tokenized deposits, and programmable means rules can be attached to the payment itself: conditions on when money moves, and when it doesn't. And We Know

It's not just a want, it's a need to have.

The metals the U.S. counts as critical, from silver and copper to tungsten, platinum and palladium, are all vital to the economy and national security. Uncertainty over tariffs on these materials is drawing them into the U.S., where inventories are building up. The aim is to secure what infrastructure and defense depend on. Flyover Conservatives

High inflation, people out of work, an energy crisis. That was the late 1970s, and Dr. Kirk sees today following a similar pattern. He calls it an inflationary depression: unlike the 1930s, when prices fell, the response this time is printing money, which pushes prices up. His take is that nothing recovers until inflation comes down, and last time that meant sharply higher interest rates.

Silver isn't just jewelry and coins anymore. AI, solar, and modern electronics all run on it, and Dr. Kirk doesn't see that demand slowing down.

When there aren't enough workers to pay for a country's retirees, the bill doesn't disappear. Birth rates are falling across much of the developed world while more people move from paying into retirement programs to drawing from them. A government that can't cover its promises is left with hard choices, like raising taxes or creating more money.

The same supply squeeze that hit silver in late 2025 may be taking shape again.

Tariff uncertainty is pulling critical minerals into the U.S., where they're being stockpiled. London is the center of the world's physical gold and silver trade, so metal held in America can leave less supply for manufacturers, banks and buyers everywhere else.

Gold changes hands. Silver gets used up.

When gold is sold, only the owner changes. Silver goes into AI chips, LED screens and solar panels, and once it's there, it's rarely recovered. Now large companies like Tether are buying physical metals too, which adds to demand and puts more pressure on a supply that's already being used up.

First gold. Now silver.

Tether, the stablecoin company, has built a gold position larger than most central banks hold. Why? It's more than backing their gold token. They lease the metal out and earn a fee for it. Now they're turning to silver.

Owning paper that tracks gold is not the same as owning gold.

Dr. Kirk calls a metals ETF "a paper proxy of the physical thing": a share in a fund that holds the metal. Physical bullion is the metal itself, something you can keep and one day pass down. When you hold it yourself, no third party stands between you and your metal.
