Binance Square fam — pay attention. 👀
Gold is starting 2026 around $4,360–$4,390/oz after a massive +65% run in 2025. But this rally isn’t driven by retail hype…
👉 It’s nation-states quietly buying at scale.
Central banks are building a structural price floor with relentless accumulation.
🔍 What’s really happening?
2025 Central Bank Buying:
• ~750–900 tonnes added (World Gold Council estimates)
• Still 2x pre-2022 levels, even after cooling from peak years
Top Accumulators:
• 🇵🇱 Poland: +83t (total ~531t)
• 🇰🇿 Kazakhstan: +41t
• 🇨🇳 China: ongoing steady purchases
• 🇮🇳 India, 🇹🇷 Türkiye — EMs leading the charge
🧠 Why the gold rush?
• De-dollarization: Reducing USD exposure after post-2022 asset freezes
• Geopolitical insurance: No counterparty risk, no sanctions
• Structural shift: 95% of central banks plan to keep buying (record WGC survey reading)
🔮 2026 Outlook
• J.P. Morgan: ~755 tonnes expected (~190t per quarter)
• Central bank demand is price-insensitive — they buy dips, not narratives
• Add ETF inflows, and price targets expand to $4,900–$5,000+
💡 Key takeaway:
Central banks don’t FOMO — they accumulate silently. This isn’t a short-term trade, it’s a multi-year structural bull case.
