It's already been pegged indirectly. Russia is buying all gold at 1 gram for 5,000 rubles. But they are also forcing Europe to buy natural gas in either gold or rubles. Europe has to decide between propping up the Ruble (and thus, jacking up the value of gold), or scavenging for gold directly to pay for natural gas. Or they can let their people freeze. It's OVER.
Don't be surprised if THIS is what causes World War 3. Ukraine is small potatoes compared to THIS.
This ensures WW3. The ever expanding fiat currency, with its ever contracting value cannot compete with anything of stable value. It is now survival of the fittest. Albert Pike will have his "three world wars."
The EU certainly knew it would lead to this. Hence Victoria Nuland's famous, "fuck the EU" quote. She was tipping over the first dominoes that would lead inevitably to the current situation. And everyone involved knew it.
When the rumors become true and the ruble becomes pinned to gold prices, the dollar will drop like a rock
