This is not a United States federal issue. "State of Utah" $100 notes have no legal tender status and are not authorized by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing — they circulate within voluntary barter and complementary currency networks, where participants agree to accept them at face value against goods and services. Several U.S. states have seen similar local currency experiments since the 2008 financial crisis renewed interest in community-backed alternatives to federal money.

The hologram security feature is an unusual investment for a non-sovereign issue, suggesting whoever commissioned the printing was serious about deterring counterfeiting within its own user base.
