This is a local state government expressing its distrust of the Federal Reserve's unlimited money printing and inflation through its actions. Although no one would actually bring gold bars to a gas station to refuel these days🤣

imagine busting out a five ounce gold coin paying for a lunch and they having to empty the register and take a trip to the bank to give you the change

Note: you can’t go to HEB and buy bread paying with an ounce of silver, in times of old you could. But you’ll be able to pay with a debit/credit card tied to stored metal in the TX bullion depository now.

They’ve been legal tender in Missouri for a while now, and Missouri law requires the state to protect your gold and silver from government seizure.

Texas made gold and silver legal tender You still won’t pay for gas with a coin. It’s a vault plus a debit card, not the Wild West.

Great. I've been longing for the day I can hit the saloon, pay for my whiskey and a prostitute with a gold nugget. Texas - where the future goes to die.

Government needs your gold. Dollar is backed by nothing. Crypto will be your new payment system.

It doesnt mean gold and silver will start circulating when people can still use overvalued paper dollars. Greshams law; the gold and silver will still sit in hiding

Legal tender in Texas still clears in dollars at the register. It’s a depository card, not a gold coin for lunch.

Legal-tender status is structural, but price still trades on liquidity and rates. Silver rejected $70 and fell to $66. A $70 reclaim versus low-$60s closes now defines the next leg. silvercompassresearch.substa…
