Reminder that there was a time when aluminum was more valuable than gold.
All this absurd amount of gold does is create ubiquity.

Time to start investing in osmium or something. Maybe corner the market on 180mTa.

I want to make shotgun slugs from pure Osmium and see how hard they can hit.

Osmium .22 rounds will be fucking devastating, and expensive as hell.
Assuming, of course, they exit the rifle before fragmenting - or maybe you'd want that?

I would be afraid to shoot them in anything rifled unless they were in a sabot. They would never engage any rifling of any description if they went in raw.

I'd expect osmium shot to behave a lot like bismuth shot, only a hell of a lot more ouchie.
...or maybe less, because it'll take longer to accelerate? Need a looooooong shotgun for it.

What trust?

If Trump is on the 2024 ballot then we might end up "freeing" all that gold with, "Good ol' American values"

a one-gauge shotgun (literally a whole pound of lead) may feasibly handle about two pounds osmium.

So gold is worth $22,392 per lb. 12 trillion $ is 535.9 million lbs of gold.

Anyway, Afghanistan had/had held a trillion dollars worth of rare earth minerals. Probably given most to the u.s. and taliban.

How much of this is comparison to what we already have.
I think my post about aluminum and ubiquity (#19) may apply.
