Gold revaluation to write off the debt
The more debt is being accumulated on the balance sheets of European central banks, the more likely they will revalue gold to write off this debt.One possible solution is that central banks use unrealized gains of the gold on their balance sheet to write off sovereign bonds, providing debt relief to their governments.
Revaluing gold to write off bad debt would require central banks to set a floor price for gold.
If a central bank uses its revaluation account fully, the gold price ideally doesn't fall back or this central bank will incur unrealized losses.
As such, the central bank would need to stabilize the gold price, which is a form of a gold standard.
