Samenvatting

From Gold to Code is a literary documentary on the evolution of trust. From the solidity of gold to the abstraction of fiat, from the rebellion of Bitcoin to the central control of CBDCs. It traces how money transformed from metal to paper, from promise to algorithm, mirroring humanity’s shifting faith in power, value, and belief itself. Through centuries of crises, empires rising on gold, collapsing under debt, reviving through digital illusion, the book explores how societies replaced tangible weight with symbolic worth. From Amsterdam’s ledgers to London’s bonds, from Washington’s printing presses to Beijing’s blockchain ambitions, the story reveals not only how money changes, but how money changes us. In a world where fiat can be printed, Bitcoin mined, and CBDCs programmed, the final question remains timeless: what, in the end, is value we can truly trust?
