*In a gold-backed monetary system, Gold (money proper) forms the foundation of the economy's money supply. Paper money (money substitute) is issued by central banks and can be used in everyday transactions for convenience. This distinction is crucial because it highlights the link between Paper money and Gold, emphasising that Paper money’s value and trustworthiness are derived from Gold. This ensures monetary stability and guards against the risks of inflation and devaluation that can arise when money substitutes are issued without adequate backing.

Guided by Austrian EconomicsShiftCTRL honours individual rights, champions the free market, and upholds sound money principles, drawing from pioneering research and contributions.

“It is impossible to grasp the meaning of the idea of sound money if one does not realize that it was devised as an instrument for the protection of civil liberties against despotic inroads on the part of governments. Ideologically it belongs in the same class with political constitutions and bills of right.”- Ludwig Von Mises

Hedge against fiat inflationIn the last decade, the USD has lost 26% of its value, while Bitcoin has gained 43,000%. Bitcoin serves as the ideal hedge against fiat currency.
