200,000 gold bars? Please! Do you realize that only 5 full-sized gold bars are worth about $1M and weigh over 100 pounds? 200,000 gold bars would be worth $40 billion.
Of course if that were even 100th of 1% true, that would help explain why there was little liquid cash available to pay anyone.
purely speculation. If none of you has any fact to back up, stay calm and wait for the news.

No speculation here.... Bryan clearly stated Picpay would be backed by gold, every penny.
