You can alchemically make Gold out of Silver with a powerful enough energy source. How you gunna deal with that though? I got no sauce aside from reading some shit somewhere a while back.
Maybe you can detect how it was made so you can have two types of Gold: Currency, Industrial.
Gotta be careful with Milei and the El Salvador guy. Do their countries produce anything? They got their country back but doesn't mean their people are productive like Americans are. Seems like they just looking for handouts. Did they provide any assistance to Hurricane Helene victims?
Well I was reading that Gold is made from Silver but takes thousands of years under pressure or some other process that happens organically. Otherwise you can artificially induce the process by blasting the Silver with absurd amounts of electricity but the amount it costs in electricity just to make a few particles of Gold from the Silver makes it not worth it. But if you stabilized the power of the sun and used that as a power source then I guess it could work.
The same way Amethyst is made from Quartz. Just takes a crap load of time in magnitute of thousands of years,
Well I guess the LHC is another way to make all sorts of stuff. We will eventually find the infinite Gold duping glitch.
The article I read said they were using electricity. The point is they accomplished the alchemy but, it takes way too much power just to make a couple particles of it. Like if it cost a billion dollars to make 10^-9 Gold particles then clearly not worth it.
