Speculation and doubts about the gold reserves at Fort Knox have grown due to the lack of full audits and the enduring mystique surrounding the facility. On the prediction platform Polymarket, users are placing bets on the existence of the gold, with a 21% likelihood assigned to it not existing. The last complete audit of Fort Knox's gold reserves was in 1953, and while routine checks have been carried out since then, they are not comprehensive audits. Only a handful of senior officials have been allowed entry since 1974, raising doubts about the reported gold. President Donald Trump has expressed his intention to verify the gold reserves, and with the participation of Elon Musk, public interest in the issue has increased.
