A National Currency Issuance Model Without Borrowing from the Central Bank: A New Fiscal Strategy Using Crypto Sovereign Bonds and Gold-Backed Currency
⸻
Summary
Proposed System
⸻
Objective
This proposal aims to establish a mechanism whereby the government can issue currency using its own credit and assets without incurring debt to the central bank, while gradually redeeming existing government bonds.
The system provides a self-contained, transparent, and debt-free currency issuance model, restoring fiscal and monetary sovereignty to the state.
⸻
Core Structure
The proposed system reconstructs the national fiscal and monetary framework around three key elements:
1. Crypto Sovereign Bonds
• Digital government bonds issued and managed via smart contracts
• Directly held by citizens, investors, or decentralized organizations (DAOs)
• Automated management of issuance, yields, and redemption for transparency and trust
2. Gold-Backed Currency, Gold-Backed Financial Instruments, or Physical Gold
• Gold and gold-backed tokens or financial products serve as collateral for currency issuance
• State assets directly underpin currency, ensuring credibility
• Gold-backed currency is issued as a stablecoin, legally and practically usable in domestic and international markets
3. Government Bond Buyback and Redemption
• Existing bonds held by the central bank or private investors are repurchased using gold-backed currency, gold-backed financial instruments, or physical gold
• Redeemed bonds are burned, progressively reducing government debt
⸻
Process Overview
-
Issuance of Crypto Sovereign Bonds
• State credit is digitized and tokenized on a blockchain
• Smart contracts automate bond management and ensure full transparency
• Bonds are directly accessible to citizens and investors -
Establishment of Gold-Backed Assets
• Gold held by the national treasury, private gold deposits, or tokenized gold assets are consolidated
• These reserves form the foundation for currency issuance -
Issuance of Gold-Backed Currency and Financial Products
• Gold-Backed Currency: Stablecoins issued directly by the state, backed by gold and national credit
• Gold-Backed Financial Instruments: Gold-backed bonds, ETFs, or tokenized securities
• These instruments act as both a foundation for currency issuance and a tool for debt repayment -
Bond Buyback and Redemption
• Existing bonds held by the central bank or private investors are repurchased with gold-backed currency, financial instruments, or physical gold
• Redeemed bonds are immediately burned, reducing government debt
• The backing of the currency transitions to gold plus national credit, ensuring stability and trust

Expected Effects
Effect Description
Debt elimination Central bank liabilities disappear through bond redemption
Restoration of currency sovereignty Government can directly issue currency
Currency value stability Gold collateral enhances stability and international credibility
Fiscal health improvement Reduction of interest payments and increased fiscal flexibility
Transparency and trust Bonds and currency issuance are managed via blockchain
⸻
Core Concept
• The government issues currency using its own assets and credit
• That currency is used to redeem its liabilities (government bonds)
• No central bank intervention is required, fully restoring currency and fiscal sovereignty
This model breaks free from the conventional system where “currency issuance = debt expansion”, establishing a debt-free, self-contained currency issuance framework.
