Luke Gromen's WARNING: BRICS, Gold, Bitcoin, and the End of the Dollar System

The rules-based world order is dead...and Luke Gromen says the U.S. isn’t ready for what comes next. Gold is quietly replacing the U.S. dollar, BRICS nations are rewriting the global playbook, and the Fed is trapped between inflation, debt, and a crumbling financial system. In this video, I break down Luke Gromen’s shocking warning about what’s really happening with BRICS, Gold, Bitcoin, Rare Earths, and the U.S. Dollar. He explains how the global economy is shifting toward scarce assets and why America’s financial dominance may be ending faster than most realize.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

• Why the BRICS nations are threatening the U.S. dollar’s dominance
• How Gold is quietly being revalued as the world loses trust in fiat money
• The growing role of Bitcoin and digital assets in the new system
• Why the Federal Reserve is trapped between inflation and insolvency
• How rare earths and real assets could define the next global power shift
• What Luke Gromen’s predictions mean for investors and savers today

This isn’t fear...it’s reality. The global financial system is being rewritten in real time, and those who understand what’s coming will have a huge advantage. 

Luke Gromen's WARNING: BRICS, Gold, Bitcoin, and the End of the Dollar System

When Luke Gromen talks, I'd listen because this guy has a track record of seeing around corners. And what he just said about BRICS, Gold, Bitcoin, and even the US military—it kind of shook me.

He believes the rules-based global order is already dead. The system that's held everything together since 1971, he says, is coming apart, and nobody's telling you the truth about what happens next.

And here's the kicker. He says the United States, even if they wanted to, couldn't go to war with China or Russia because they don't have the industrial base or raw materials, like rare-earth elements, to sustain a fight.

It's not fear mongering. That's the macroeconomic reality. As someone who studied and invested in rare-earth companies, I can tell you he's right. This is a new era.

In this blog, we'll walk through what Luke Gromen just revealed—why BRICS nations are shifting to gold, why the US can't stop it, and how this might finally explain why gold is breaking out, and why Bitcoin, despite everything, still hasn't gone higher.

I've covered a lot of economic uncertainty before, but this might be the clearest signal yet that the global reset isn't just coming. It's already here. The rules-based order is dead.

What Luke Means by the Rules-Based Order

So what exactly does Luke mean by the rules-based order? And why does he say it's over?

Well, after World War II, the US came out as the world's top military and economic power. They helped rebuild Europe, kept the peace, and basically wrote the New World Financial Rulebook.

In 1944, we got the Bretton Woods System. In 1971, the US moved off the gold standard and made the dollar the center of global trade, especially for oil. That gave us the Petrodollar System, where oil and trade had to be settled in US dollars.

With that came what economists call an exorbitant privilege. The US could run huge deficits, print money, and the world still needed our dollars. It was like having a credit card with no limit and no due date.

From then on, the world kind of agreed: the US runs the show, the dollar is king, and if you want to do business globally, you play by America's rules. That's the global rules-based order in a nutshell.

But here's the thing. According to Luke, that era is already over. We just haven't admitted it yet. And when you look around, you can see the cracks.

BRICS, Gold, and the End of Dollar Dominance

BRICS nations are doing trade in gold and local currencies. Central banks are underweighting US Treasuries and buying gold at record levels. US sanctions are backfiring, pushing countries to build alternatives to the dollar.

The rest of the world is tired of our financial system and America's rules, and they're starting to opt out. Gromen says, "The game's already over." The US just hasn't realized it's lost.

And the shift isn't just geopolitical; it's monetary. Once trust in the dollar starts to break down, people look for alternatives. That's where gold and Bitcoin come in.

BRICS nations are changing the game. They're not just walking away from the US dollar—they're rebuilding a whole new system with gold at its center. Trade between countries like China, Russia, Brazil, and Saudi Arabia is quietly shifting from dollars toward gold.

This isn't just theory. Gromen explains it's already happening. BRICS countries are de-dollarizing their trade, not just talking about it. They're settling deals in local currencies, but naturally, trust can become an issue, so they use gold—physical gold, not paper contracts.

Why? Because gold doesn't have counterparty risk. Gold doesn't freeze your assets. Gold doesn't come with political strings attached.

In the West, according to Gromen, they don't even see it happening—or maybe they do, but they're burying their heads in the sand. In America, we're distracted arguing about politics, watching the stock market, hoping the Fed can fix everything with a rate cut.

But BRICS nations are playing the long game. They're buying gold while quietly shifting away from US Treasuries.

Luke Gromen believes gold is quietly replacing the dollar as the foundation for global trust. That's not just a big shift—that's potentially the end of our current monetary system.

Scarce Assets and Bitcoin

What happens when the old system starts to break down, when countries stop trusting the dollar or each other? They look for something else to trust—something scarce, finite, or limited, something you can't just print, sanction, or inflate away.

That's why Luke says this moment is bullish for scarce assets like gold and even Bitcoin. When trust disappears, people reach for trustless systems. Bitcoin is the definition of trustless: no central bank, no government, just code and math.

Luke calls this a trust breakdown, and it's driving people to rethink where they store value. If this system is breaking down, if trust really is fading, then scarce decentralized assets might be around for a while, and they might just be part of the next system.

The Fed is Trapped

You might think the Federal Reserve will have to raise rates again to kill inflation and bring everything back under control, but Luke says they can't. Why?

Because the Fed isn't just fighting inflation anymore. It's fighting math. The US is running trillion-dollar deficits every single year, even without a crisis. And it's not just spending on social programs or entitlements—it's the military budget, interest payments on trillions of debt, and it's all baked in.

The Fed can't raise rates much higher because it would make government interest payments explode. Cutting spending isn’t an option either because the US has commitments to seniors, national defense, healthcare, and more.

So what does the Fed do? They let the economy run hot. Inflation becomes part of the plan because it helps shrink debt in real terms and boosts asset prices, keeping the system afloat.

Where does the money go? Into scarce real assets—gold, Bitcoin, commodities—and anything outside the traditional system. Luke says this sets up not a deflationary crash, but an inflationary melt-up.

Rare Earths, War Risks, and America’s Limits

Even if the US wanted to fight back militarily or economically, it might not be able to. Our industrial base is hollowed out, supply chains are fragile, and rare-earth elements—critical for fighter jets, drones, satellites, and high-tech communications—are dominated by China.

If a conflict breaks out, the US may find itself reliant on the very country it’s trying to counter. This isn't just about defense—it affects the entire modern economy: electric vehicles, green energy, high-tech manufacturing.

The result? The US is forced to pivot from war toward compromise. But rebuilding the industrial base and securing supply chains is expensive, which feeds into the idea of running the economy hot. And that benefits real assets like gold, Bitcoin, and commodities.

Wealth Inequality and Trust Collapse

Luke also warns of deep economic instability from within. Wealth inequality has become extreme, and history shows that when too much wealth concentrates at the top while the working class feels squeezed and unheard, things break down.

From the French Revolution to Occupy Wall Street, we've seen this pattern before. Today, the cost of living is skyrocketing, debt is exploding, and trust in government, media, and banks is shaky.

The system feels rigged. People are working harder, saving less, and falling behind.

The Next Monetary System

So where do we go from here? In a world where BRICS holds the gold, the Fed is trapped, the military relies on China, the economy runs hot, and trust is evaporating—what happens next?

Luke believes we move into a new monetary system backed by hard assets and built around trustless technology. That’s gold, that’s Bitcoin, and that's a feature that may already be unfolding.

The world is changing fast. Are you ready?
