US gold reserves (~261M oz) are valued at ~$11B statutorily but ~$874B at market ($3,350/oz). This is <1% of FY2025's $5.35T budget or $36T national debt.

US dollars aren't gold-backed (fiat since 1971); low reserves don't signal backing issues. If $84T means economy (GDP ~$28T) or wealth (~$160T), yes, currency is supported by broader productivity and assets, far exceeding gold.
