Answer

Ruling: Yes, you can exhaust all your unexhausted Gold to generate power and play Reaction speed spells with that power while retaining priority before Thermo resolves.

Sequence:

  • Opponent plays Thermo
  • While you have priority, exhaust your unexhausted Gold to generate power
  • Use that power to play Reaction speed spells
  • Your unspent power won't disappear until the next draw step or end of turn

Nuances:

  • Only unexhausted (ready) Gold can be used to generate power, not exhausted Gold
  • This works similarly to recycling a rune, except runes don't need to exhaust to be recycled for power

Does this answer look correct?
