Facile synthesis of precious-metal single-site catalysts using organic solvents

Nature Chemistry, Published online: 13 April 2020; doi:10.1038/s41557-020-0446-z

Au/C single-site catalysts have been validated commercially for acetylene hydrochlorination, but they have previously been prepared using highly oxidizing acidic solvents or additional ligands. It has now been shown that they can be made by impregnation of a metal salt from an acetone solutionβ€”generating catalysts with comparable activity to those synthesized by the other methods.

Normally, I try to raise red flags on companies that are creating unallocated precious metals programs (Like Kitco), or prop up pm shills ( all of the too big to fail banks). Today, I would like to raise a red flag on companies that purchase blood gold/silver. One of the worst is REPUBLIC METALS.

If the above title led you to see more, here you go!

As we know, it takes a tremendous amount of hoops to jump through to create a successful mine. Obviously, illegal mining circumvents all of the required contracts, licenses, and regulations that legal mines require. The question is, how do illegal mines sell their product and get it into the markets? Answer: Companies like Republic Metals purchase doray bars from illegal mines and refine them in states that have close to no regulatory foundations (ex. Florida). They work with cartels/gangs through HSBC to implement transactions. If the illegal Precious Metal trade came to a halt, it would be a major ring in our continuous precious metals squeeze. All of the information can be provided to you through Netflix. the series is called "Dirty Money" and the episode is titled "Blood Gold". Republic Metals is not the only one, and this information isn't exactly new or recent.

There have been a lot of attacks on precious metals retailers lately.

First we have a generation that thinks everyone is here to do their bidding. β€œI want my free app and it sucks so you have to make it better”.

Second we have a generation that thinks everyone except them should work for free and stores/businesses shouldn’t have a profit. ”These premiums are too high, the store is screwing me”.

Third, people say stores put their product out of stock instead of selling at lower price. What people don’t realize is that if the store sells product at a lower price, they are ordering from a wholesaler for the same lower price. They make their money selling and buying not hoarding. The premium is the profit margin plus a safety margin for silver volatility.

Fourth, if you think precious metals stores are so bad, start one up and show us how its done.

Can someone point out a company that doesn’t sell a product with a premium or profit margin?

LPT: Precious metals don't hold value the way commercials imply they do. In the event of widespread economic collapse, if currency is devalued, the value of those metals will only be in their uses.

Their uses, of course, are very minimal or niche, and mostly not relevant to your survival.

The only value in hoarding precious metals is preparing for the economic collapse of only the country in which you reside. If an economic collapse were to happen in that way, you could technically trade those metals for other still-existing currency, but don't be surprised if you go to buy some meat and the seller is pissed you're trying to purchase valuable protein for rocks.

The value of these metals is more similar to the price of a stock and they are only slightly more valuable than actually owning stock in the event of a collapse, as they still are just rocks.

Don't believe the paranoid commercials.

Any workarounds of tracking Precious Metals (gold, silver) in Wealthica?

There have been posts going back in this subreddit as far back as 4 years to add Precious Metals support. It hasn't been added yet.

Does anyone have any workarounds of tracking Precious Metals in Wealthica?

As an example: assume I have five 1 oz bars of Gold (total 5oz) that I bought over the past few years in multiple transactions.

I would like to track the 5 oz (ideally as separate transactions so I can track purchase dates and add some notes).

  1. How do I add this? Do I just create one Valuable Asset called "Gold" and add multiple transactions under it?
  2. What's the simplest way for me to update the value of this on a regular basis? It doesn't have to be real time (although that would be amazing) I can update this once every few weeks when I check my portfolio. I also don't mind writing some automation if Wealthica has some kind of API to do this.

Thank you

How much of a power move would it be for a dragon to cannibalize its hoard to cap all its teeth in precious metals and turn the rest into jewelry?

Let's say a paranoid red dragon decides that he can't exactly risk leaving his hoard alone when he goes hunting so he decides it would be better to cap off his teeth with its hoard and wear anything else as fancy jewelry just to flex on covetous rivals that might try to infiltrate the lair. How much of a power move is this action on the dragon's part?

Legality of Freezing Ability to Sell [CryptoCurrencies/Stocks/Precious Metals] Holdings in App

I understand that Revolut is legally allowed to freeze my currency account for any reason, under the recent European Banking/Rules and Regulations of 2017 for a security review.

Obviously once my account is unfrozen, the same amount of hard currency will still be there.

--

They recently froze my account like tens of thousands of other for a 'security review', which will of course result in me closing my account with them and telling everyone I know they never use Revolut ever again. The worst customer service experience I have ever encountered in my life with any company in the world, to put it nicely, is what has proceeded since then..

I completely understand why they have 10,000+ 1 of 5 Star Ratings on Trustpilot.com alone.

Obviously, I've filed complaints with the UK Financial Ombudsman Service and Central Bank of Lithuania and am waiting to hear back from them, as Revolut could care less about responding to me or my concerns relating to my financial losses due to their reckless and careless actions.

The issue is that my assets with them are 95% involved in the stocks/crypto/precious trading section and the market is experiencing a severe downturn, where I have wanted to sell for quite some time and they are not letting me to do so, even though I have done nothing wrong.

I only keep a small fraction of my money in my actual currency account.

Their terms and conditions clearly state they are responsible for foreseeable losses. Them freezing my account during a downturn in the market, this obviously leaves the potential for foreseeable losses in any account that is frozen that has crypto/stocks/precious metals governed by market conditions.

Not to mention, I have told customer support I am losing money and I absolutely must be able to sell my tradeable assets into currency. They are absolutely aware of foreseeable losses, as I have told them over a dozen times and all they can tell me is that they hope to get back to me within 15 business days and that I cannot sell my tradable assets while my account is under review.

--

What are the European laws/regulations when it comes to them freezing the ability to sell my crypto/stocks/precious metals into currency?

My money held with them is now lost in the amount of 25% and I am concerned I will continue to lose even more money, as the market continues to have a downward spiral. And they still refuse to allow me to sell into hard protected currency.
