😵💫The Gigantic Gold Reserves of Italy and the Repatriation Debate 💰
Italy has approximately 2,452 metric tons of gold, the third largest national reserve in the world 🌍 after the United States and Germany.
Location of the Reserves 🗺️
These reserves are not stored in one single place. Most of them are stored in:
Rome: 🏛️ A large part is located in the vaults of the Bank of Italy.
Fort Knox (U.S.): 🇺🇸 About 43% of the reserves are held at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
London and Bern: 🇬🇧🇨🇭 The rest is distributed between the Bank of England and the Swiss National Bank, respectively.
The Italian government, led by Giorgia Meloni's Brothers of Italy party, has revived the debate over who legally owns that gold.
Recent Budget Amendment: At the end of November 2025, an amendment to the 2026 budget law was approved, stating that the gold reserves managed by the Bank of Italy "belong to the State on behalf of the Italian people" 🇮🇹.
The Conflict: 🇪🇺 This measure seeks to assert the State's sovereignty over the reserves, which are currently managed independently by the Bank of Italy. The independence of the central bank and the management of its assets are key requirements of the European Union treaties and the European Central Bank (ECB), thus this amendment has raised concerns about a potential conflict with EU regulations. Alongside the legal debate over ownership, there has been political pressure to repatriate the gold from the vaults of the United States. This pressure, also shared by Germany, is due to increasing global geopolitical instability and concerns over possible interference in the U.S. financial system. 🌐

After the news that all unregulated stablecoins will be banned on Binance it is hoped that a solution will be found. For example, I know that USDC is regulated, but I don't know if it also complies with the new standards that have just come out. Does anyone know more? If so, I hope for a response from you! #usdc #italia #EuropeanCryptoTrends #germany #Europe

CONIO AND BITCOIN IN ITALY
The attention of Italians towards digital assets is growing.
Conio, the Italian fintech backed by Poste Italiane and Banca Generali, which launched the first Italian wallet for the custody of Bitcoin and digital assets, available to its 430,000 users through its smartphone App and within the Apps of Banca Generali and Hype, conducted research to study the behaviors across different regions.
It emerges that the interest in these assets spans the entire peninsula: Lombardy, Lazio, Campania, Veneto, and Sicily are, in fact, the regions with the highest number of registered users on the platform. Furthermore, a significant portion of clients also resides in central regions such as Marche, Abruzzo, and Molise.
The majority percentage of clients is male (88%), compared to 12% female.

Positive Signals from Italy: Banks Support Euro Digital, But Request Cost Allocation
The European Central Bank's (ECB) Euro Digital project has just received significant support from Italy, one of the major economies of the Eurozone. A senior official from the Italian Banking Association (ABI) stated that Italian banks strongly support this initiative, seeing it as an important step to modernize the regional monetary system.
However, this support comes with a practical condition: Italian banks hope that the necessary investments for the project can be allocated over time due to the high costs associated with implementing new infrastructure and technology. This request reflects the common concern of the banking industry about who will bear the financial burden of transitioning to a new digital currency.

Meta vs. Italy: Another major regulatory battle over WhatsApp and artificial intelligence
The American technology giant Meta is once again coming under the scrutiny of European regulators.

🔎 What is this exactly about?
Italy has taken aim at the way Meta deployed Meta AI in WhatsApp. The regulator is investigating whether:
the AI was not integrated 'automatically', without a clear user choice,

STATEMENT from the Diocese of Avila, Spain, following the death of Pope Francis
STATEMENT from the diocese following the death of Pope Francis
It is with great sorrow and grief that we learned of the passing of Pope Francis. He leaves us heartbroken with sadness, but with the same serenity he displayed in his final hours, based on the firm hope that God has welcomed him into his glory. His earthly death marks the end of a pontificate filled with wisdom, love, and service to the people of God and the entire world.
A tireless witness to the Christian faith, Francis was always a staunch defender of human dignity, inciting commitment to the poorest and most marginalized in society. His life and pontificate were marked by his dedication to peace, justice, and mercy, and his message of universal brotherhood will continue to guide the Church.
