Trump Signs Order Banning CBDCs

Three days into his second term, President Trump signed an executive order establishing a clear regulatory framework for digital financial technology while explicitly banning central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) within US jurisdiction.

The order, titled “Strengthening American Leadership in Digital Financial Technology,” creates a presidential working group chaired by former PayPal executive David Sacks to explore digital asset markets and potentially establish a strategic national digital assets stockpile.

Trump’s directive promotes dollar-backed stablecoins and blockchain innovation while revoking Biden-era policies deemed restrictive to US economic liberty. The move aligns with Trump’s campaign promises to make the US the “Bitcoin superpower” and “crypto capital” of the world, coming after Bitcoin’s price surge above $100,000 in December 2024.

The order defines digital assets broadly, including cryptocurrencies, digital tokens, and stablecoins, while specifically prohibiting CBDCs, which Trump views as “a dangerous threat to freedom.”

What Do Central Banks Know About Gold That You Don’t?

Central banks purchased a net 244 metric tons of gold in Q1 2026 — the fastest pace in over a year — despite prices hitting a record $5,405 per ounce. The World Gold Council data reveals who’s buying, who’s selling, and why this relentless accumulation at all-time highs signals a growing loss of confidence in fiat currencies. If central banks are protecting themselves regardless of price, the rest of us should be paying attention.

Gold Near $4,700: The Chaos Isn’t a Ceiling. It’s a Floor

Gold is holding near all-time highs because five institutional systems are under simultaneous stress: a new Fed chair inheriting uncontrollable inflation, mortgage rates at a six-month high, India’s gold market fracturing under a sudden import duty hike, a US-Iran ceasefire on life support, and a World Bank forecast of 42% precious metals gains in 2026. These aren’t five separate stories. They’re the same story told five ways.

GoldSilver: Home Storage and Vault in One Account

Most investors think about diversification in terms of asset classes. Fewer think about custody diversification — deliberately splitting how and where their physical gold and silver is held. GoldSilver removes that friction.

Samantha is wonderful. I was nervous about spending a chunk of money. I asked her to `hold my hand’ and walk me through making my purchase.  
She laughed and guided me through, step by step. She was so helpful in explaining everything...

Travis was amazing! I was having difficulty with a wire transfer of my life’s savings, and I was very worried that I might not be able to receive it all. My husband just passed away and I’ve been worried about these funds along with grieving for 8 months. As soon as I got connected with Travis, my concerns were immediately addressed and he put me at ease. The issue was resolved within days. He even called me back with updates to keep me in the loop about what was going on with the funds. I am so grateful for a customer representative like Travis. He really cares for his clients.

Sam was also very helpful! I called and was connected to Sam within 30 seconds. She helped me with a fee that was charged to my account. She had a great attitude and took care of the fee quickly.

    Outstanding quality and customer service. I first discovered Mike Maloney through his “Secrets of Money” video series. It was an excellent precious metals education. I was a financial advisor and it really helped me learn more about wealth protection. I used this knowledge to help protect my clients retirements. I purchase my precious metals through goldsilver.com. It is easy, fast and convenient. I also invested my IRA’s and utilize their excellent storage options. Bottom line, Mike and his team have earned my trust. I continue to invest in wealth protection and my own education. I give back and help others see the opportunities to invest in precious metals. Thank you.
