‘Pivotal Moment’—Coinbase CEO Predicts When Bitcoin Price Could Flip Gold’s $18 Trillion

“Any country with gold reserves should be holding at least 11% of that amount in bitcoin reserves,” Armstrong posted to X in response to criticism of Trump’s plan for a national bitcoin reserve. “And I believe in the next five to 10 years bitcoin’s market cap will likely surpass gold. So these reserves should grow to exceed gold.”

“We’re gonna do something great with crypto because we don’t want China, or anybody else … but others are embracing it, and we want to be ahead,” Trump told CNBC.

Korea Zinc’s shares rose sharply

The stock climbed 12% on Friday, its steepest one-day gain in nearly two months, outperforming the benchmark Kospi index’s 0.85% rise.

The extraordinary shareholders’ meeting had initially been called by private-equity firm MBK Partners and Korea Zinc’s major shareholder Young Poong, which have teamed up and increased their combined stake to more than 40% since September for control of the smelter, to reshape its board and management led by Chairman Yun B. Choi.

    “We hope everything is fine with Fort Knox, but we’re going to go into Fort Knox, the fabled Fort Knox, to make sure the gold is there.”

    “If the gold isn’t there, we’re going to be very upset,” Trump said.

    Then-Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., visited the vaults in 2017. They reported that, despite various conspiracy theories, the gold was present.

    Gold set for eighth weekly gain

    Spot gold shed 0.4% to $2,927.95 an ounce by 1204 GMT. Bullion has gained around 1.6% this week after rising to a record $2,954.69 on Thursday.

    “The non-stop rally since December remains unchallenged unless prices drop to around $2,850,” said Ole Hansen, head of commodity strategy at Saxo Bank.

    “Gold has been displaying resilience with short-lived retracements, as lingering U.S. trade uncertainties reinforce its appeal as a hedge,” IG market strategist Yeap Jun Rong said.

    Spot silver was flat at $32.92 an ounce, and palladium dipped 0.3% to $974.75. Both metals were headed for weekly gains.

    Platinum shed 0.2% to $976.80 and eyed a weekly decline.
