It would not destroy earth's economy, it would just make the gold price low. Gold, by the way, has a plenty of uses, specially in electronics. We would just have a higher quantity of gold to use.

Money, by the way, is nowadays backed by nothing, it could not get more unreal and imaginary as today, so don't worry, your dollars would still be worth the same: the fantastic value that we attribute to it, based on nothing.

The greatest issue could be if the USA brings the asteroid and claims the property of it, instead of distributing it across the whole population of the world, or something like that -like giving it to every country according to the population size-.
