黄金在无政府大乱时期是催命符，拿出来等着被枪击。

黃金流動性差，配比20％明顯過高，我覺得不應該超過5％
美國無政府時期肯定人人有槍，那時黃金可以拿出來在有槍人之間交換，相當於500年前的美國。
In 1525, North America was a vast continent inhabited and shaped by millions of Indigenous peoples for millennia before sustained European contact began. Instead of a unified territory, it was a complex mosaic of diverse nations, cultures, and languages. European knowledge was extremely limited, and the few incursions were marked by exploration, early trade, and devastating disease.
Landscape of Indigenous nations
Before European diseases ravaged their populations, Indigenous nations thrived across the continent, adapting to and transforming their environments in diverse ways.
By region in 1525:
Mesoamerica: Although technically Central America, the collapse of the mighty Aztec Empire, with its capital of Tenochtitlan (modern Mexico City), was still fresh. The Spanish conquest, completed in 1521, was rapidly expanding, with its devastating effects spreading northward.
Southwest: As large Mississippian centers in the Southeast were declining, Puebloan communities in the Southwest, like the Zuni and Hopi, were seeing population growth. They built multistory adobe-and-stone apartment complexes for defense. In the same decade, Athapaskan peoples began migrating south from west-central Canada, a group that would eventually become the Apache and Navajo.
Northeast: This region included the powerful Iroquoian and Algonquian peoples. In the mid-16th century, the League of the Iroquois would form to end internal conflict. In areas of southern New England, such as Plymouth, Indigenous populations would be decimated by European diseases in the coming decades.
Southeast: This was a region of advanced agricultural societies in river valleys, including the ancestors of the Cherokee, Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek, and Seminole. Major Mississippian cultural centers like Moundville, Alabama, had been declining since the 15th century.
European exploration and impact
By 1525, European presence in North America was limited to the Caribbean islands, the northern and eastern coasts, and incursions into Central America.
Areas and impact of European exploration:
East Coast: European explorers like the Portuguese Estevão Gomes (sailing for Spain) were actively mapping the coastline. In 1524–1525, Gomes mapped the coast from Nova Scotia to New York Harbor, leading to more accurate maps of the Atlantic seaboard.
Florida: Spanish conquistadors were beginning to make disastrous attempts at land expeditions. An ill-fated 1528 expedition to Florida and the Texas coast, led by Pánfilo de Narváez, would eventually result in the famous eight-year survival journey of Álvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca.
Disease: European-introduced diseases, like smallpox, had already begun their catastrophic spread among Indigenous populations. Even in 1525, populations far from direct European contact, such as the Inca in South America, were being devastated by diseases that preceded the conquistadors.
A continent in transition
At this time, North America was not the sparsely populated "new world" that Europeans later described, but a vibrant and highly populated continent on the cusp of immense change.
Native-led society: The vast majority of the continent was controlled and populated solely by its Indigenous inhabitants. Their societies had deep, complex histories that were centuries in the making.
Limited contact: The eastern coasts had seen intermittent contact from European fishermen and explorers for decades, and initial trade in furs had begun. However, permanent European settlements were still in the future.
Knowledge gap: Europeans had very little understanding of the interior of the continent. Early maps from this period showed a much more accurately drawn Atlantic coastline, but most of the continent's geography remained a mystery to them.

So？這不正好符合我的定義，無政府的北美嗎？有火槍並不等於不需要黃金了，殖民者之間還需要黃金交易呢。
