The government dislikes any form of value that allows personal exchange(except art). That is why they hate crypto as it exists today.

They want to control the flow of economic transactions. So I think it's possible, but not because they want the metal.

I'm just not sure what the fiat collapse will look like. I really think the great reset is about building a "soft landing" from a debt collapse all at the expense of individual freedom. I believe the central digital currencies will be the vehicle they will try and use to reset world debt. A flip from one fiat currency to another.

I have no idea though how exactly this is going to play out.
