Missouri bill would ban CBDCs, make gold and silver legal tender

Sharing is Caring!

Bullion yes, CBDC no

Republican Senator Rick Brattin pre-filed Senate Bill (SB) 194 on Dec. 1. The bill introduces changes to state law that would prohibit public entities from accepting a CBDC or participating in any testing of a CBDC. It also changes the definition of money in the state’s Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) to exclude CBDCs.

In addition to the provisions on CBDCs, the bill would require the state treasurer to keep at least 1% of state funds in gold and silver. It would also exempt the sale or exchange of gold and silver from the state capital gains tax and make gold and silver legal tender.

“The act declares that gold and silver shall be accepted as legal tender at their spot price plus market premium […] in the state of Missouri. Costs incurred in the course of verification of the weight and purity of any gold or silver […] shall be borne by the receiving entity.”
