China’s Gold Reserves Surge Unprecedentedly to Challenge Dollar Dominance

DID Press: China’s gold reserves have experienced an unprecedented surge, which analysts interpret as a sign of a strategic shift in Beijing’s financial policies.

Since 2024, the gold reserves chart entered a new phase, and in a short period, China surpassed its previous record of approximately 40,000 kilograms.

This trend accelerated in 2025, and by early 2026, China’s gold reserves reached around 90,000 kilograms—an increase reflecting the country’s efforts to reduce reliance on the U.S. dollar and shape a multipolar financial system.

Experts believe this explosive growth is part of China’s preparation for a new phase in global economic competition, one in which the dominance of dollar will gradually be challenged.
