About this episode

The episode discusses the movement of states advancing legal frameworks to make gold spendable money again and its implications for financial sovereignty.

From Texas and Florida to Arkansas, Louisiana, and Missouri, a growing bloc of states is advancing legal frameworks to make gold spendable money again, with modern guardrails, audits, and insured vaulting. Kevin Freeman and Mike Carter outline how standardized rules, multiple private providers, and state oversight can unlock secure, real-time gold payments without government takeover. Learn why this movement expands financial sovereignty, reduces friction and scams, and may reshape taxes and custody for everyday savers. Momentum is building nationwide as legislatures implement systems that align with Article I, Section 10 and today’s payment tech.
