What would happen if we went to evidence based banking instead of just taking the word of people with obvious ulterior motives.

- tomohawk 10y agoThat's not the point I'm trying to make. A simple way to test this system would be to allow the 'owners' of the gold to count it once in a while. As it is, there's no verification of anything. A system with no transparency or verifiability is just waiting for abuse.
