News Date: April 14, 2025

Utah state Rep. Ken Ivory is spearheading a groundbreaking effort to allow vendors to receive payments in gold and silver through a digital platform backed by physical metals. Speaking on the John Solomon Reports podcast, Ivory expressed optimism about overriding Gov. Spencer Cox’s veto of the bill, noting that the state House has already approved a veto override session. This legislative momentum underscores Utah’s commitment to exploring innovative financial systems rooted in constitutional principles.
Ivory emphasized Article I, Section 10 of the U.S. Constitution, which declares, “No State shall... make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts.” He argued that this clause supports the bill’s importance, calling gold and silver “constitutional money.” The proposed system would be voluntary, using digital delivery to modernize the use of precious metals without violating federal law or the Constitution’s ban on fiat currency.
In a parallel move, Texas lawmakers have introduced bills to create a gold-backed digital currency, signaling a broader trend among states to align financial innovation with constitutional intent. Ivory highlighted the urgency of Utah’s initiative, positioning it as a potential model for blending historical monetary standards with 21st-century technology. As both states advance, they may pave the way for a new era of trusted, metal-backed digital payments.

What is Sound Money? Monetary reset

A somewhat polemical term for a currency backed by a tangible commodity such as gold, silver or platinum. Sound money has an intrinsic value, but is more susceptible to deflation than fiat money. Many countries used sound money throughout most of their histories; however, most countries today use fiat money and have since the United States left the Bretton Woods System in the 1970s. The term "sound money" is often used by those who favor its reintroduction. The more common term is hard money.
Given the current fiat money system is on a path towards its own destruction it is not surprising that there has been increasing talk of a monetary reset.
