Not sure how it works, but I don't think so. Perhaps there's a default currency unless specified by a contract? Otherwise they could pay back in uranium or metal scraps or cow shit

They're removing all restrictions on settling contracts. You can settle in chickens if you want.
No way they'd be able to justify prohibiting settling contracts in ETH if you can settle in chickens. It's a libertarian government.

Who do the restrictions apply to? Creditors or debtors? The way this is expressed makes it appear that creditors must accept any currency in repayment of debt, which would mean having to accept eth if someone owed you money.
