Title: The Role of Gold in the Digital Age

Abstract: This article follows the change and evolution of the role of gold in the modern
economy. It points out the current resurgence of its reserve asset function and the
reasons for this, including, in particular, the centuries-old trust in it and its credit-riskfree
nature at a time when the FinTech revolution is challenging both the legitimacy
of the forms of money we know at present, and the role of the state.
