Ken Ivory, a public figure known for his commentary on economic and monetary issues, has recently posted several tweets discussing concerns about the U.S. dollar and advocating for alternative monetary systems.
On April 7, 2026, Ivory referenced Dr. Judy Shelton in a tweet questioning current federal monetary policy: “Why not play to our strengths, as Dr @judyshel advises? Makes perfect sense to States and Americans losing purchasing power ground daily to federal debasement of the dollars that represent our time, our labor, and our ingenuity!”
Two days later, on April 9, 2026, Ivory cited financier J.P. Morgan’s historic testimony before Congress: “Gold is money. Everything else is credit” JP Morgan testifying to Congress in 1912. And so it is… #TransactionalGold #GoldIsMoney #DebtIsBondage”
Later the same day, he shared an article analyzing changes in the global monetary system: “Excellent, thought provoking article describing the transition that is already afoot. The Fragmentation of the Dollar System Against this backdrop, the monetary system itself is beginning to shift. Not through collapse but through gradual fragmentation. The dollar remains”
These statements reflect ongoing debates among policymakers and commentators about inflation and the future role of the U.S. dollar in international finance. Some analysts have noted that concerns over inflation and currency devaluation have prompted renewed interest in gold and other alternative assets as stores of value.
