Russian Oil (and the historic devaluation of Russian assets) might make people want to buy Rubles. But I think the purpose of this floor on the Gold price really is to support the price of Gold,

How does a floor on gold help the ruble?

In addition to standard monetary inflation there is also the impact of private issuance of credit.

The common use of credit cards means that a lot of “new money” can make it into the system if people choose to run up their personal debt.

Standard bank loans (or loans by any other entity for that matter) can increase the “money supply” as well.

If people pay down their credit cards or personal debt that reduces the “money supply”.

My dollar is still worth a dollar.
You sound like the sort of person who would wonder why a couple of zeros can't be removed from the price tags so "everything would be cheaper."

Do you buy your gasoline with silver coins?

(answered in post 39. A floor in Gold is about supporting the price of Gold)

Remember Gresham's Law. No-one will spend silver while they can still spend fiat.
