The Sound Money Movement is a political and economic movement which opposes central bank manipulation of currencies and believes that a gold or silver-based currency has greater stability. The movement supports precious metal legislation in the United States.
Three-Step Legislative Strategy
- Establish gold and silver as legal tender
- Create a State precious metals depository
- Add a digital currency backed by depository
States where gold and silver are legal tender

Regional Depository Concept
If all previous legislation passed, our depository map would look like this and Depository States (gold) could support regional currencies of non-depository States (yellow).
Impedence-Matched Currency
Creating the Euro was like harnessing a horse, a mule, a dog and a turtle to pull a wagon. A "one size fits all" strategy creates stresses because regions (States) have different histories, resources, skill levels, goals. Most economic transactions are within a local sphere and a State currency would be controlled regionally.
