In this appearance on the And We Know show, Dr. Kirk Elliott turns to Europe's proposed digital euro, which the European Central Bank and European Parliament are advancing to reduce reliance on US payment networks and the dollar. He raises concerns that, under the proposal, a central authority rather than individuals would set limits on how much each person and company could hold, and he views this as part of a broader move toward centralized control over access to money. Connecting it to Project mBridge from prior weeks, he argues the world is steadily shifting away from the dollar toward systems that can settle in many assets, including gold. On metals, he notes silver has consolidated well below its earlier peak, which he reads as an accumulation phase, and stresses fundamentals and supply and demand over short-term noise. He also walks through how physical metals can be held in IRAs and 401(k) rollovers, framing gold and silver as tangible, zero-counterparty-risk options worth considering. He invites viewers to schedule a consultation with the KEPM team.
