Armazenar metade do ouro dos EUA - Musk quer investigar o cofre mais seguro do mundo, Fort Knox: ninguém verificou em 50 anos, quem pode garantir que não foi roubado?
Elon Musk, head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) of the United States, stated yesterday (18) that he plans to investigate Fort Knox, which holds over 147 million troy ounces of gold, accounting for 56.35% of the U.S. federal government's gold reserves, to ensure the safety of this gold. (Previous context: DOGE starts investigating SEC corruption! CZ suggests Musk: Blockchain to replace paper notes 'saving $750 million annually') (Background: Musk dismisses over a dozen 'U.S. Digital Office' employees, leaked recording from TSL senior management: hopes he leaves Tesla) The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) led by TSL founder Musk is seen by the U.S. President as a tool to help reduce federal government spending and improve efficiency. Since Trump took office, Musk has taken swift action to investigate important government agencies such as the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), and others. His latest target is the storage of a large amount of gold in Fort Knox, known as one of the most secure buildings on Earth. Musk doubts the safety of Fort Knox's gold reserves. Just yesterday (18), Musk posted on social platform X, expressing his desire to know if the gold stored in Fort Knox is really still there: Who can prove that the gold in Fort Knox hasn't been stolen? Maybe it's there, maybe it's not. But that gold belongs to the American public! We just want to know if it's still there. According to reports, Fort Knox is a U.S. Army base where important institutions such as the U.S. Army Recruitment Command, U.S. Army Reserve Officers' Training Corps, and the U.S. Treasury's gold reserves are located, considered one of the safest places in the world. According to U.S. Treasury data, Fort Knox's gold reserves exceed 147 million troy ounces, accounting for 56.35% of the U.S. federal government's gold reserves, making it the largest gold reserve location in the U.S. However, there hasn't been a comprehensive audit of the gold reserves there since the 1950s, with the last partial audit dating back to 1974. If Musk's audit of Fort Knox's gold reserves this time does not match the records, the global gold market may also face an impact, especially against the backdrop of current historical highs. BTC reserves are more transparent. We know that since President Trump took office, there has been increasing calls for the U.S. to establish strategic BTC reserves, and currently, several states have proposed related BTC reserve bills, aiming to invest state public funds in BTC. There is much debate on whether BTC or gold is better, but one of the biggest advantages of BTC is its relative transparency. Anyone can check the asset storage status and flow in the official BTC wallet at any time, without the need to go through layers of review like Musk does to inspect Fort Knox's gold reserves, and spending a lot of time counting that gold.
