True but these are both transferring gold so that the gold is in a different physical location, not transferring gold to pay someone. I'm sure both cases would much rather sell the gold in place A and buy it in place B, but that's just not possible at this quantity of gold.

The same can be done with bitcoins - because they do exist in physical locations (as many physical locations as you want, actually, but you probably don't want too many...)
