John Butler: Why Central Banks Are Preparing for a Gold System

April 15, 2026·40 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

In this Future of Gold interview series, John Butler explains why he believes gold is gradually returning as global money and why gold could reach $100,000/oz. He discusses the failures of the current debt-based monetary system, the growing role of BRICS, and why rising geopolitical tensions and de-dollarization could accelerate gold’s remonetization.  He also explores how a future gold-backed system could work in practice, from trade settlement and central bank reserves to tokenized gold and neutral vault jurisdictions. The conversation ends with Butler’s view that gold may need to be revalued far higher in a future monetary reset, especially if trust in fiat currencies continues to erode. 📲 Download the GoldRepublic app: - Google Play: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.goldrepublic⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ - Apple Store: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://apps.apple.com/nl/app/goldrepublic/id475643876⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🟠 Buy and store physical allocated gold, silver and platinum. 👉 Open an account: ⁠https://bit.ly/38stf7p ⁠ ⚠️ DISCLAIMER ⚠️ The views and opinions expressed in this program are those of the speakers and do not necessarily reflect the views or positions of any entities they represent.
