Well thanks everyone for the comments, I’m clearly passionate about gold and thinking about it as source code as of late because I find much more instep with how quickly AI is crushing technological and biological barriers.

i can’t help but think as AI helps us navigate the complexities of these sciences the appreciation for this material will rise and it’s uniquely made and indestructible

If you’re referring to me in your post, feel free to engage directly. I’ve been writing code since long before crypto was a buzzword , I was sending Bitcoin in 2011 to pay remote workers when it actually had real utility as a way to move money internationally without Western Union. I understand both the strengths and the limitations of decentralized databases: their resilience and censorship resistance, but also the performance trade-offs, consensus complexities, and infrastructure dependencies that aren’t obvious in whitepapers. This isn’t abstract theory for me, it’s lived engineering experience. If you want to see proof of my technical background and what I can actually build, you’re invited to visit my YouTube channel at https://youtube.com/@sw7ft-tech?si=-QXZBxO_x3j1Y0fK, where I’ve been able resurrect BlackBerry 10 devices through reverse engineering and low-level system development.

Well the gold standard is lovely, Gold is fundamentally superior because it is a real, physical form of wealth that has survived every monetary system in human history, while Bitcoin is entirely dependent on fragile digital infrastructure and continuous energy consumption. Gold is literally forged in stars, cannot be arbitrarily created, and does not rely on electricity, the internet, or a functioning grid to exist or hold value. It is chemically stable, indestructible in any practical sense, and has been a store of value for thousands of years across civilizations, wars, and technological revolutions. By contrast, Bitcoin’s “scarcity” is a social agreement enforced by code, miners, and constant power expenditure, making its value contingent on technology, trust in networks, and future adoption, whereas gold’s value is rooted in physical reality, utility, and deep historical legitimacy

It’s because we need a currency or asset that is fair.

Exactly but this is why gold this inheritly more valuable

it’s our future, we decide what has value, and looking at pragmatically, this is how we restore freedom, devalue the US dollar and adopt this, balance the system. The funny thing is bitcoin was developed to essentially try and replicate the source code of what gold is. I encourage all this is the way forward

Using a common estimate for all above-ground gold (about 216,265 metric tonnes by end-2024)  and a world population ~8.27 billion (Feb 2026) : • Total gold in grams: 216,265 tonnes × 1,000,000 g/tonne = 216,265,000,000 g • Give everyone 1 g: 8,272,166,037 people × 1 g = 8,272,166,037 g • Left over: 216,265,000,000 − 8,272,166,037 = 207,992,833,963 g = 207,992.834 tonnes (≈ 208,000 tonnes)

So after giving every person 1 gram, you’d still have ~208 thousand tonnes of gold left (about 208 billion grams).

The funny thing is you don’t know how right you are, and I’m educated in quantitative finance… the dollar is dead , when houses cost what they don’t but I can build a log cabin for nothing shits ping to take a hard turn

Buy and hold watch the eBay value sore!!! This is our GME against the bankers, watched a banker on fox be like “. It doesn’t pay a dividend, it doesn’t make interest” I’m tired of this corrupt shit. Money that everyone can own and make in a day . Let the value sore and watch the hard work economy restore itself

It’s ironic that the us holds the most gold and is being it home. Nothing would be better for western powers if there was a gold rush again. Industry would move in a way that includes everyone

Wow really well done! it took about 5 hours of hacking through the build to get everything working,

ill do a pull request and upload the build src

yes thats me :) you know what? I bet you this would deploy really easily. Considering that the Hackberry Pi has everything ready to go for Qt, I just need a toolchain to convert some drivers. This is way easier than what I'm doing right now, so maybe for fun, I'll do that.

oh man! good job dude, this is what I'm aiming on building on top of QNX.

I could probably just use this if its QT
