Gold, Germany, and the Great Trust Test: Fed Vault Custody, Paper Promises, Bullion Banks, and Dalio’s Empire Stages

On today’s International Flavor, Samuel Trapp digs into a viral gold “bombshell” claim: Germany supposedly demanding rapid repatriation of gold held at the New York Fed. He walks through what can be checked (Germany’s past repatriation, vault custody basics, the difference between moving bars vs sourcing new metal) versus what smells like narrative-pump fear marketing. Along the way: gold leasing, rehypothecation, “force majeure” talk, and why Russia’s reserve-freeze precedent changed how countries think about custody risk. International Flavor: Where the Truth Just Tastes Better.

Thanks for listening to International Flavor with Samuel Trapp, where truth crosses borders and censorship ends at the mic.
