The acceleration in Gold has been nothing short of breathtaking in the past two years. It's basically what every "Gold Bug's" fever dream was since 2008. Sometimes things take way longer to unfold, but then they unfold in a hockey stick-like manner.

That Shanghai chart is important, and also don't forget that the PBC does not report their Gold purchases openly & correctly.

They will hold more in their vaults nowadays than visible in your chart #2, probably even much more judging by Gold outflows in COMEX.

The Gold holdings are just a sign that trust is lost and this is accelerating with Trump's trade wars (as is DXY decelerating since then).

Part 2 - The Rise and Fall of Money:
