    I saw a report a while back saying the citizens of India have the most gold, no idea if that’s accurate though

      That makes more sense… they historically (culturally?) value jewelry over money due to the economic fluctuations that have occurred over time. Oftentimes they rely on precious metals for savings as it holds value better.

      Add to the fact that there’s over a billion ppl it stands to reason they may have accumulated more gold than most countries.

      But idk where fort Knox stands in comparison, so maybe USA has more gold even so.
