<<it is greater than $5 trillions and thus it makes the absurdity of gold as a reserve clearer.>>

I see no problem there. There is only 0.72 ounces of gold per capita available on this planet. Gold could certainly be worth $15,000, $30,000 or more per ounce if we really want to use it as money.

The growth of gold production is near 2%, more or less the growth of the worl population and more or less the growth of worldwide GDP over the long term.

If needed, we could go on a gold standard with partically backed (50% or 75%) currencies to allow faster gorwth. Still this would control excesses like we had in the last 20 years that now threathen financial stability.
