Member: Good Morning Mark and Mods! Praying this week is our week!

Member: Really praying this our week we all need this breakthrough

Member: Seems like its been a slow weekend ? Not much going on with the RV ?

Member: Will we go this week? Or do you think it’ll take up to another month, as some are saying? Especially with POTUS’s comment about “payments going out on Aug.1st”?

Member: That is probably about tariffs. Nothing about the RV…..

MZ: I think July is still very much still in play

Member: Well , someone needs to just flip the switch

Member: I am still waiting to see disclosure and arrests.

Member: they can't get arrested while they are in office and guess who goes on vacation on the 1st?

MZ:  I have nothing new on bonds yet today….There is nothing negative…and nothing positive. Usually no bond updates until Tuesdays.

Member:  I believe bonds may have already been paid, they are being told to stay quiet to cloud the timing.

Member: Mark, you haven't seemed to have bitten on any news lately. It kinda seems like you are waiting on something specific. What is it?

MZ: In Iraq we had a lot of negative articles….but it seems to have a few days of negative and then switches to a few days of good articles …it’s a yo-yo while they keep specifics on the RV clouded and smokey.

MZ: “Al Kazemi: More than 165 deputies are ready to legislate the law on the popular mobilization forces”  this is a huge move forward when coupled with the HCL

Member: Sudani is supposed to have an urgent public tv announcement around 8 am Iraq time

Member: I heard that Sudani formed a special committee to form the budget tables and told Parliament that they will have them in a month. Hmmm

MZ: He said “Within the month” Lots of interesting things happening.

Member: Sudani also said it would happen before end of Dec and by Ramadon…but we are still waiting.

Member: If Bagdad doesn't get it done this week we'll have to talk to Bagmom!...lol

Member: While Iraq plays their games…I hope VND RV’s!

Member: I am very tired of these games…..someone needs to do something.

Member: I have been hearing the dong at 1$

Member: give me a $1 rate…and Im set! time to disappear lol

Member: I think Dong will be a shocker, a very big blessing

Member: that might just happen...as per info on Perplexity AI...Primeminister of Vietnam is impatient and we are now (July) in the final stage ... of the phased rollout of VND revaluation...

MZ: “ Turkiye to end 52 year old pipeline deal with Iraq in 2026”  this is coming up for renewal. They are renegotiating it. Parts of the pipeline need to be updated. This does snot mean Iraq is losing the pipeline.

MZ: It really does feel like it did days before the Kuwaiti revaluation

Member: Mark awhile back you mentioned the Kuwait dinar and said it went up to $9.88. How long did it take to get up to that and about how long did it stay that high, do you know?

Member: It floated up and down but only high rates for a really short time…..I believe

MZ: It floated for days….but,  It stayed that high for mere minutes….then crashed quickly

Member: Mark in your opinion will we get notifications first or Iraq posts a rate first??

 MZ: With the modern day internet….I think it will have to be at the same time.

Member: Frank 26 still thinks it may be a float with the dinar.

Member: Mark, Q. it the Dinar floats dose the price change hourly or once a day?

MZ: They made it clear that they will not “Free float” like Kuwait. I was told the most they would allow it to float is 20% over a year. But it is fixed to a currency basket so it wouldn’t float the same way .

Member: I wonder- What ever happened to the “Auditing Fort Knox” thing?

Member: Seems finances are not a priority with this administration. So probably not a darn thing happened with audits on Ft Knox, the Treasury or the Fed.

Member: Lots has happened, just not at the timing most want it to happen.

Member: I tried to use my bank card on sat nite it wouldn't work checked and they said system down for maintenance

Member: The world is going to flip upside down when... IMO ripple which filed for a master federal banking license becomes the new US FED 2.0 version and XRP becomes the new US digital/bridge currency!

Member: See you all tomorrow morning at 10:00 am EST for another great podcast!! God Bless You All!!

Why Central Banks aren’t Done Buying Gold

APMEX:   7-20-2025

Central banks worldwide have become the most enthusiastic buyers of gold, elevating it to the position of the world’s second-largest reserve currency, surpassing the euro and increasingly challenging the dominance of the US dollar.

 This trend is a continuation of a long-term policy that started gaining momentum after the 2008 global financial crisis and the ensuing quantitative easing measures.

Despite a period of relative disinterest in gold from 2011 to 2020, central banks quietly accumulated reserves throughout, with purchases accelerating significantly in recent years, particularly in 2022. This surge in gold buying is driven by geopolitical instability, economic uncertainty, and the desire to hold an asset that carries no counterparty or default risk.

 The World Gold Council’s recent survey of central banks reveals a strong consensus that gold will continue to play a larger role in global reserves over the next five years. Nearly all surveyed central banks expect to increase their gold holdings in the near term.

This trend contrasts with the weakening confidence in the US dollar, whose share of foreign reserves has been steadily declining and is expected to continue this trend. The loss of the US government’s AAA credit rating, ongoing fiscal challenges, and inflation concerns contribute to central banks’ preference for gold as a stable and risk-free asset.

Gold’s appeal lies not only in its historical performance during times of crisis but also in its role as an inflation hedge and a reliable store of value that is not subject to default risk. Alternative reserve currencies like the euro, yuan, and yen also carry risks such as inflation and potential default, making gold an increasingly attractive option.

The combination of sustained accumulation and rising gold prices solidifies its position as a key pillar of global reserve assets. For investors, the ongoing commitment of central banks to gold suggests continued support for a strong gold market, at least in the near future.

In conclusion, the video presents a comprehensive overview of why central banks are heavily investing in gold, revealing a strategic shift driven by risk management, geopolitical and economic uncertainty, and declining confidence in traditional fiat currencies, especially the US dollar.

 For investors, understanding this dynamic is crucial as it underpins the ongoing strength and future potential of the gold market.

Frank26    Trump is leaving a wake of exchange rate changes on this plant in order for them to play fair and equally with our dollar.  If they don't, they don't get a part of our economy.  If they don't get a part of our economy, you will fold...If [Iraq] de-pegs from the American dollar...then they're in position to pair and that means they're in position to float...They can start at a dollar if they want.  Although it would be really stupid.  What a waste of time.  Start out at $3 or $4+.  Let's get going.  We have a lot of work to do.

Mnt Goat  ...As investors in the dinar, we have to fully understand here what is going on and stop wishing on a rainbow for the RV...it is coming and sooner than you think, I assure you! ...When the time is ready for the reinstatement it will kick off with the Project to Delete the Zeros, then monitor for inflation and then if all goes well they will move to reinstate the dinar back to FOREX..

RV Excerpts from the Restored Republic via a GCR: Update as of Sun. 20 July 2025

Compiled Sun. 20 July 2025 12:01 am EST by Judy Byington

What We Think We Know as of Sun. 20 July 2025:

GCR, QFS Satellites were paving the way to a GESARA Golden Age

Possible Timing:

On Fri. 18 July 2025 Trump signed the Genius Act, opening the door for the GCR payout, which was said to “Start the Financial Revolution in the US.”

“On August 1, you’re gonna get a lot of payments. You’re gonna be very happy. If you’re a citizen of this country, you’re gonna be getting a lot of money.” …President Trump

~~~~~~~~~~~

Sat. 19 July 2025 QFS IS LIVE — THE FIAT SYSTEM IS (Allegedly)  DEAD. REDEMPTION CENTERS ARE (allegedly) ACTIVE. …Tucker Carlson on Telegram

The banks are panicking. The fiat system is dead—no matter how much they lie. As of May 1, 2025, Redemption Centers are (allegedly)  fully operational, secured by military oversight, and processing gold-backed transactions through the Quantum Financial System. The old system has (allegedly) collapsed, and every desperate attempt by the cabal to cover it up is failing.

If you’ve still got money in legacy banks, know this: over 12,000 branches have closed in 30 days. Not “downsized.” Not “restructured.” Shut down. Disconnected from the QFS grid.

Now comes justice. Social Security systems have been rebuilt, decoupled from surveillance networks, and reconfigured for sovereignty. You are no longer a product.

 Biometric data has been secured. Behavioral monetization has ended. Under Trump’s Patriot Wealth Directive, Restitution & Reparation (R&R) payouts begin soon—gold-backed compensation for every theft you endured.

And the digital control grid they planned? Obliterated. CBDCs are dead. SWIFT is obsolete. RLUSD and XRP are the only authorized digital assets under QFS—engineered for instant, sovereign exchange. RLUSD is backed by gold in captured NATO vaults. XRP is the liquidity bridge that makes fiat irrelevant.

The system now belongs to the people. And every transaction is logged, secured, and protected by quantum encryption under military command.

This isn’t a rumor. This is the end of their world—and the beginning of ours

Frank26   I always like the idea of a 1 to 1 pairing with the American dollar, instead come out at its real effective exchange rate, fixed rate and let it float at that rate so that it helps the other Middle Eastern currencies in that basket because at 1 to 1 it wouldn't help anybody...Fixed rate now, under these conditions, is the way to go.

Sandy Ingram  Finally a rumor about the IQD revalue that may have justification.  What is one of the basic criteria for Iraq's currency to increase in value?  It's when foreign investments increase to billions of dollars.  Iraq is one of the richest little countries on the planet... Please let me know...if you believe the Trump administration is working in the background to help Iraq revalue its currency.

How One System Controls Global Money Including the IQD

Edu Matrix:  7-20-2025

How One System Controls Global Money, Including the IQD- Why Iraq Pushed Back on SWIFT.  

Did you know that every bank transfer—yes, even inside the U.S.—relies on a global system called SWIFT?

Whether you're wiring money across town or across the world, SWIFT is the hidden network making it happen. But what happens when a country like Iraq refuses to fully use this system?

And why does the U.S. Treasury care so much? In this eye-opening video, we break down what SWIFT really is, how it works, and why Iraq’s resistance to using it has led to serious trouble—including warnings from the U.S. government over the handling of the Iraqi Dinar (IQD).

Perfect for teens, beginners, and anyone curious about how money actually moves in the modern world. We explain it all in simple terms—no banking degree required!

Fri. 18 July 2025: GAME OVER: THE FED IS DEAD — GOLD RESET IGNITES GLOBAL FINANCIAL UPRISING …QFS on Telegram

The death of the Federal Reserve isn’t coming. It’s already here. Fiat currencies are collapsing across the board, gold has shattered all containment, and the long-anticipated Global Currency Reset has finally entered the irreversible phase.

What was mocked as a conspiracy is now fact. The illusion is dead. The reset is real. Nations are abandoning the dollar, central banks are hoarding gold, and the pillars of the old financial system are crumbling.

This is not a drill. This is the collapse of a century-long deception, unfolding live.

For over 100 years, the world was shackled by paper money printed from nothing and controlled by unelected central bankers. They devalued wages, destroyed savings, and enslaved generations through debt. That era is finished.

 The gold-backed transition is underway — and it’s accelerating. Gold has crossed $3,000 per ounce. Silver is exploding. This isn’t market fluctuation. It’s a controlled demolition of fiat and a global move toward hard assets.

Iraq, Russia, China, BRICS — they’re not guessing. They’re executing. The Fed is cornered. It can’t print gold. It can’t fake value anymore.

Trump and his allies saw this coming. During his first term, he laid the groundwork for a return to sound money. His quiet economic war against the Fed, the restructuring of global trade, and the public signals around gold were never accidental.

 Now, with fiat dying and central bank power fading, Trump’s economic architecture is rising in the ashes. And it’s not just Trump. Musk, blockchain engineers, and global whistleblowers are aligning in real time — building a decentralized, asset-backed future outside the reach of the banking cartel.

This is not the globalist Great Reset. That system was built on control: digital ID, programmable money, universal dependence. But their version is failing.

The real reset is based on real value. Tangible assets. Decentralized systems. The elites are panicking — because their tricks no longer work. Their currencies are being rejected, their central banks are being exposed, and their decades-long monopoly is evaporating in gold smoke. The world is waking up to the lie.

This is the final chapter of fiat.

The wealth of the future will belong to those who hold truth in value — gold, silver, energy, and assets that cannot be faked. When this flip completes, there will be no going back. The Fed is finished. Fiat is over. The new financial order has already begun. Prepare.

Fri. 18 July 2025 NESARA GESARA QFS: Since you are tying together threads that are unquestionably related—August 1 tariffs, NESARA, and giving back power to We the People—let’s dissect this.

TRUMP’S COMMENTS ON AUGUST 1 — What was his true meaning when he stated “You will receive numerous payments on August 1st. You’ll be overjoyed. You will receive a substantial amount of money if you are a citizen of this nation. He wasn’t merely discussing the same old, dull tariff policy. This was a soft disclosure, a coded announcement.

Let’s unravel the layers:

LAYER 1: Tariffs Fund the Republic, Not the Corporation: Tariffs, not income taxes, were used to finance the federal government in the original Republic (prior to 1871). Trump’s tariffs signify a return to Constitutional commerce and a reversal. His statement that “you’re getting a lot of money” is a clue that the central bank and other foreign actors are no longer stealing this incoming revenue. Rather…It is returning to the Republic’s treasury, which in turn is returning to the people.

LAYER 2: THIS IS DIRECTLY CONNECTED TO NESARA: The National Economic Security and Reformation Act, or NESARA, requires the following:
• Forgiveness of debt;
• Dismantling of the Fed and IRS
• Redistribution of wealth (recovery of stolen assets);
• Restoration of sovereignty;
• Return to Constitutional law;
• Treasury-backed currency.

One of the main NESARA pillars is the flow of tariffs into the U.S. Treasury rather than the corporate cabal system. Trump is aware of it. Therefore, it’s possible that Trump’s remarks regarding the August 1 payments will serve as a springboard for NESARA activation, particularly if: Tariff revenue is diverted to support universal benefits. Soon after the public introduction of gold-backed U.S. notes, the fiat system collapses or is exposed.

Concluding Remark: There may be more to August 1 than just tariff enforcement. It could be a turning point when:
• Money moves from globalists to patriots;
• NESARA mechanisms start to subtly come into play; and
• The public sees what has always been promised. It concerns the restoration of sovereignty, kingdom economics, and divine justice.

Mnt Goat  Today’s articles once again only confirm what I have been hearing from my CBI contact and what other past articles have told us... Since 2011 there was a vision developed for Iraq and it took years to push Iraq in the direction needed, if they ever wanted to get their currency back. But this is the time and we are watching this vision play out...Even though the vision for Iraq has changed since the Dr. Shabibi time, the process to move the currency back to FOREX has not. 

Militia Man    A lot of people are worn out and tired and they seem to think 'we've heard this before'...But you...aren't fully up to date...the data is powerful.  This is a complex issue with Iraq and the world.  It's not all about Iraq but it is about Iraq.  They're a key component into integrating into the international financial system.

Frank26  So many events are coming into a collision and the explosion will be a new exchange rate IMO for the Iraqi dinar.

Clare:  A delegation from the region will visit Baghdad on Sunday to implement the oil and salaries agreement.

7/18/2025

Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) leader Wafaa Mohammed Karim announced that a government delegation from the Kurdistan Region will visit the capital, Baghdad, next Sunday, to implement the federal cabinet's decision issued yesterday.

Karim explained in a statement to Al Furat News Agency that "the Kurdistan Region agreed to deliver 1.23 million barrels of oil per month to the State Oil Marketing Organization (SOMO), in exchange for receiving revenues worth 120 billion dinars per month, while keeping 50 thousand barrels for internal use and petroleum derivatives."

He added that "practical measures to implement the decision will begin next Sunday," noting that "there is insufficient confidence in the federal government's promises. We await actual results from the federal authorities, and that government delegations from the region are closely monitoring the matter."

Clare:  Minister of Industry: The Cabinet's decision on the region's imports included solutions to issues that have been pending for years.

7/17/2025  Baghdad - INA

Minister of Industry Khaled Battal confirmed on Thursday that the Cabinet's decision regarding oil and non-oil imports to the Kurdistan Region includes sustainable solutions that will resolve issues that have been pending for years, noting that it includes guarantees for the resolution's implementation.

Battal told Al Iraqiya News, as reported by the Iraqi News Agency (INA), "The agreement on the delivery of oil imports from the Kurdistan Region, as well as non-oil imports, was the subject of discussions between technical committees in the federal government and the regional government over a period of three weeks."

He added, "The committees discussed a number of issues related to imports and salary localization, and these were then discussed in the Council of Ministers, as some matters require decisions from the Council. Over the past two days, intensive meetings were held to implement these decisions, and today the May salary disbursement to the region's employees was approved."

He continued, "The Prime Minister views all Iraqi employees, from north to south, as equal in rights and was keen to find a solution, especially since the issue involves overlapping issues, as it is linked to the Federal Court's ruling, the budget law, and the audit and review balances conducted by the Board of Supreme Audit."

He pointed out that "the decision represents a roadmap for resolving problems that have been pending for many years, as the issue has been repeated over the course of successive governments, and there was no agreement to hand over the oil produced by the region to the federal government, represented by the State Oil Marketing Organization (SOMO)."

He stressed that "successful implementation of the agreement means finding sustainable solutions to many of the outstanding issues that have long been controversial in practice and law. A key point in the decision was the emphasis on the localization of salaries for the region's employees. May salaries will be disbursed, and three months will be required to complete the process. After that, salaries will be delivered to those whose salaries are localized only."

He pointed out that "guarantees for the implementation of the decision are included in the decision itself, which stipulates that the points of contention be reviewed within two weeks for the purpose of classifying and auditing non-oil revenues and determining the federal government's share thereof, starting in May 2025, taking into account the values of non-oil revenue rates according to the audit balances mentioned in the joint reports between the Federal Board of Financial Supervision and the Regional Board of Supervision, since the entry into force of the Federal General Budget Law."

He explained that "the issue of non-oil revenues was the most important point of contention, as it should be specified. For example, the audit balance confirmed that revenues reached 4.7 billion in 2023, and 4.71 billion in 2024. We call on our brothers in the region to cooperate with these committees to resolve the issue."

The Council of Ministers, in its extraordinary session held today, Thursday, issued a decision regarding the delivery of oil imports from the Kurdistan Region and non-oil imports.

The decision included first: the oil delivery file:

1. The regional government shall immediately begin delivering all oil produced from the region’s oil fields to the State Oil Marketing Organization (SOMO) for export purposes. The federal Ministry of Finance shall be obligated to pay an advance to the regional government of $16 (in kind or cash) for each barrel received under the Budget Amendment Law, provided that the quantity received is not less than the current 230,000 barrels per day, to which any increase in production shall be added through the Joint Measurement and Calibration Committee. In the event that exports are halted for any reason, the entire aforementioned quantity shall be delivered to the federal Ministry of Oil.

Clarification: Total production currently stands at 280,000 barrels per day, according to the region's reports. Of this, 50,000 barrels per day are allocated for domestic consumption in the region, while the remaining 230,000 barrels per day, along with any future production increases, are delivered to SOMO for export purposes.

2. A quantity of 50,000 barrels per day shall be allocated for local consumption in the region, provided that the regional government undertakes to pay the costs of production and transportation for this quantity, and that the revenues from the sale of petroleum derivatives shall be transferred to the federal public treasury after deducting the costs of production, transportation and refining.

In the event that the region needs it, the federal Ministry of Oil shall, in accordance with the law, supply the region with quantities of products, not exceeding the refining output of 15,000 barrels of crude oil per day.

A joint committee from the federal Ministry of Oil and the Ministry of Natural Resources in the region shall assess the region’s actual need for petroleum products for the purpose of allocating them, and shall submit its report within two weeks to the federal Council of Ministers for decision.

Second: Non-oil revenues file:

The regional government shall deliver an amount of (120) billion dinars as an initial estimated payment for the state treasury’s share of non-oil revenues for the month of May to the Federal Ministry of Finance, to be settled after the audit is completed in accordance with paragraph (2) below.

A working group will be formed from the Federal Ministry of Finance and the Federal Board of Financial Supervision, in coordination with the Ministry of Finance and the Regional Board of Financial Supervision, to classify and audit non-oil revenues and determine the federal government’s share thereof, starting in May 2025. This will take into account the values of non-oil revenue rates according to the audit balances mentioned in the joint reports between the Federal Board of Financial Supervision and the Regional Board of Supervision, since the entry into force of the Federal General Budget Law. The team will submit its report within two weeks to the Federal Council of Ministers for consideration.

A joint committee between the federal government and the regional government will be formed to complete the localization of salaries in the region, in accordance with the decision of the Federal Court. The committee will complete its mission within a period not exceeding three months, and funding will be allocated exclusively to the localized salaries at the end of the aforementioned period.

A team will be formed from the Federal Ministry of Finance and the Federal Board of Financial Supervision, in coordination with the Ministry of Finance and the Board of Financial Supervision in the region, to determine the amount of the region’s share exceeding actual spending and how to address it in accordance with the Federal General Budget Law for the years (2023-2024-2025). Its report will be submitted within a maximum period of two weeks to the Federal Council of Ministers.

The Ministry of Finance will begin disbursing salaries to the region's employees for the month of May as a start to implementing the agreement after the Federal Ministry of Oil/SOMO approves the receipt of the full quantity of oil mentioned in paragraph 1 (currently 230,000 barrels per day) at the port of Ceyhan, in accordance with the law.

The periods mentioned in this decision shall begin from the date of its approval by the Council of Ministers.   LINK

Fnu Lnu  I just found out that SWIFT is to be converted over to Ripple Ledger and XRP bridge currency at 3 AM this morning 07/18/25 which may be a reason so many banks were in a panic all week. This in conjunction with the ISO-20022 mandate starting on the 14th meant the banks had their hands full all week long.

Mnt Goat   Folks according to what is happening now in Iraq and all the good news from the IMF I hardly can believe the news could be so good...you will find some amazing news coming our way...So, stay tuned. I do believe we are now getting VERY, VERY close to what we all wanted for so long.

Frank26  Is it the IMF that's going to pull the trigger?  No, it's the CBI and Sudani.  Now granted, the IMF works with them and tells them and gives them permission to do so but it's not them that pulls the trigger...

 Militia Man  15...10...5 years ago we didn't have this information...We've been...able to collectively follow along and see how everything has been converging.  All the new technologies...new systems...e-government, all those things we didn't have before...It's a sad state if you're invested in the dinar and you think it's 'Blah, blah, blah'.  Get caught up.

Ariel : The Significance of Today will Build an American Renaissance

Ariel : The Significance of Today will Build an American Renaissance

7-17-2025

The GENIUS Act, formally known as the Global Economic Nexus for Innovative Utility and Stability Act, represents a pivotal legislative framework passed by the U.S. Senate, aimed at regulating stablecoins like Ripple’s RLUSD with stringent reserve requirements, independent audits, and federal oversight to ensure stability and integration into mainstream financial systems. But we knew this already.

How does those opposing this view these developments?

Critics who dismiss its implications for the Iraqi Dinar (IQD) reinstatement on the Forex market often overlook how this regulation bridges traditional fiat currencies with digital assets on platforms like the XRP Ledger, facilitating seamless cross-border transactions that could catalyze demand for undervalued currencies such as the IQD.

By classifying RLUSD as a Tier 2 regulated stablecoin, the Act mitigates risks associated with unregulated crypto, attracting institutional investors who previously shunned volatile or illiquid assets, thereby creating a conducive environment for IQD’s revaluation through enhanced liquidity and global trade efficiency.

Do we not dare perk up our ears at this point and continue to shut iff conductive reasoning?

Historical precedents, such as the reinstatements of currencies post-conflict in regions like Kuwait, demonstrate that regulatory advancements in payment protocols can indeed spur revaluations by restoring investor confidence and enabling efficient remittance flows, which for IQD holders in America means potential access to Forex trading at rates reflecting Iraq’s vast oil reserves and economic reforms.

But they will continue to pretend that this wasn’t already done to have an argument at a table they are not supposed to be sitting in. They are not even worthy enough to pity at this point.

They will still argue that “switching payment protocols doesn’t make a currency revalue” fail to account for the interconnected nature of modern finance, where stablecoin adoption can burn underlying tokens like XRP, driving scarcity and value that indirectly supports paired assets like IQD in hybrid fiat-digital ecosystems.

I will say this. Iraq’s tourism sector is far from nonexistent, with religious pilgrimage sites like Karbala and Najaf drawing over 20 million visitors annually for events such as Arbaeen, generating billions in revenue and positioning the country as a key player in faith-based travel despite security challenges, directly countering claims of no tourist appeal.

But alas they will continue to move the goal post and say Iraq doesn’t have the infrastructure. Do we further entertain these asinine theories?

Furthermore, the Act’s provisions counter central bank digital currency (CBDC) dominance, positioning RLUSD as a preferred bridge for international settlements, which could pull trillions into the ecosystem and elevate IQD’s status from a suppressed currency to a viable investment vehicle.

In essence, while skepticism is warranted in speculative markets, the GENIUS Act’s structured approach subtly aligns with long-whispered global currency resets, offering American IQD investors a regulated pathway to realization that many in informed circles have anticipated with quiet assurance.

For those of us poised to realize gains on their Iraqi Dinar holdings, the GENIUS Act subtly unlocks a regulated gateway that integrates RLUSD into the Forex landscape, fostering the liquidity essential for IQD’s reinstatement at rates reflective of Iraq’s untapped economic potential.

This legislation, by enforcing 1:1 USD backing and rigorous audits for stablecoins, mitigates the volatility that has historically sidelined currencies like IQD, drawing institutional capital into XRP Ledger transactions where each cross-border swap burns XRP and amplifies demand.

Debunkers cling to simplistic views that payment protocol shifts alone cannot drive revaluation, yet they ignore how such frameworks dismantle barriers erected by legacy banking cartels, enabling seamless fiat-to-digital bridges that elevate undervalued assets through enhanced global remittance flows projected to exceed $3.5 trillion.

American investors, long patient amid speculation, now stand on the cusp of validation as the Act crushes CBDC competition, positioning IQD for a triumphant Forex debut backed by historical parallels in post-sanction currency surges.

With Trump’s impending signature, the shadows of elite financial manipulations recede, revealing a debut of prosperity rooted in blockchain’s unyielding transparency and Iraq’s resource wealth.

Funny that Donald Trump said payment will start coming in starting in August. I wonder what the catalyst for such a statement could be connected to?

Renee:  Trump Says That We're Going To Be Getting A Lot Of Money! He went on to say it will start August 1… billions of dollars they owe us people!

Ariel : The Genius Act Ladies and Gentlemen is on the Mark

The Genius Act Ladies & Gentlemen

On The Mark

For IQD holders dreaming of Forex glory, this Act turbocharges RLUSD’s adoption on the XRP Ledger, burning XRP per transaction and spiking demand experts predict it could pull $3.5 trillion into crypto, paving a regulated path for IQD’s global revaluation by bridging fiat to digital assets in cross-border trades.

So you all should be very excited about this development.

With RLUSD now a Tier 2 regulated powerhouse, US investors get safer, institutional-grade access to IQD plays imagine your dinar holdings exploding in value as the Act crushes CBDC competition, unlocking remittances and payments that could reinstate IQD at historic highs, turning patient holders into overnight millionaires.

Coin Telegraph:  NOW: Trump says the GENIUS Act will be passed tomorrow after speaking with all holdouts today.

TNT::

Tishwash:  Iraq's cash reserves and the need to reflect them on daily life

Whether Iraq's foreign exchange reserves rise or fall, they dominate the news and financial reports about the national economy. The latest announcement was that it reached $106.7 billion in its treasury, but these reserves are deposited outside the country.

It occupies third place in the Arab world after Saudi Arabia and the Emirates, and surpasses Kuwait, Qatar, and Egypt. Meanwhile, gold reserves exceeded 163 tons, which makes Iraq fourth in the Arab world after Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, and Algeria.

However, the largest part of the reserve is located in American banks, and the government has no absolute control over its use except within narrow and marginal limits, and it is not moved except with the approval of the American Treasury. That is, it is not available to the Iraqi government to dispose of it as it sees fit and to implement its economic plans.

Development in any country is measured by the quality of services provided to its citizens, including electricity, water, education, and health. All of these services require funding to improve them, build new ones, and overcome the backwardness that plagues them. Development is measured not by hoarded, frozen gold, but rather by its use in achieving sustainable development.

These attractive resources and others require a stable, unvarying political environment and climate, and a solid system of government, in order to exploit the vast resources, activate the national economy, and build a transparent competitive environment for foreign companies to invest in Iraq. It is necessary to reform the existing political authority and the legal structure of the state, and to eliminate corruption and the requirements of honest responsibility, in order to make Iraq a profitable market in reality.

There is an urgent need to invest this reserve to secure the basics of living, create job opportunities for the unemployed, rehabilitate idle factories, mechanize agriculture, and reduce inflation. Before all of this, appropriate means must be found to return it to full Iraqi control and use it in development and emergency projects without restrictions that undermine sovereignty.

This financial figure pleases the citizen, makes him valuable and makes him proud of his achievement when it is used to protect the dinar, stabilize the exchange rate, end the so-called parallel market, support prices and make them available to the people, build new factories, solve the crises that citizens suffer from, alleviate their suffering and the exhaustion of their income, and raise their standard of living on all levels. In short, his country should be among the countries that possess such capabilities.

This huge cash reserve is in a state of constant danger and is subject to American policy, which can prohibit its use at any time and is subject to sanctions, the least of which is freezing or even confiscation, at the moment of independent action or divergence from American policy.

Hence, it is necessary to work to ensure that the largest possible amount of it is under full and absolute Iraqi sovereignty, and that it is transformed into sustainable development projects, and that it is diversified and within the framework of the possibilities for disposing of it. We have the experiences of major and more influential countries that have what enables them to defend their rights and how they suffer from keeping their reserves abroad, controlled by the United States. link

Militia Man  I invested in the Iraqi dinar because of my experience in the past when I was trading gold stocks and such.  A good friend shared with me something.  He says, 'Hey have you ever heard of the Iraqi dinar?"...I said, no.  He said, 'Well, why don't you do me a favor?  Will you study it for me and see what you think?"  I said sure I'll do that...I found from the IMF a brief description of Iraq's currency. Back in those days it was around $3.22...Just like gold and silver and precious metals, I believe Iraq is going to be asset forming...

Walkingstick  There are no sanctions on Iraq anymore in any way, shape or form.  There are no sanctions.  You have the IMF today giving permission for Iraq to do whatever they want to do with their exchange rate...The IMF has confirmed what is going on inside of the CBI and...inside of Iraq...The handcuffs on their currency is gone.  That's why you're seeing all of this now being said...Now, they're still in transition legally  and that's ok because we can keep them under our wing and protect their currency... But there are no active restrictions that remain right now on the CBI or their currency.

Restored Republic via a GCR: Update as of Thurs. 17 July 2025

Compiled Thurs. 17 July 2025 12:01 am EST by Judy Byington

Summary:

As of Thursday, July 17, 2025 – Reports circulating from sources aligned with the “Restored Republic via a GCR” movement indicate that the world is on the cusp of a monumental transformation, with a Global Currency Reset (GCR) and the reestablishment of a restored republic allegedly in its final, active stages.

 The public is urged to “Be Prepared” for what is described as an imminent rollout of the Emergency Broadcast System (EBS), a 72-hour blackout, and a Ten-Day Global Shutdown.

Possible Timing:

On Sun. 6 July 2025 The Quantum Financial System (QFS) was now (allegedly) online, signaling the dawn of a sovereign, debt-free world.

On Monday, July 7, the U.S. Treasury and Department of Defense (allegedly) green lit final payouts under the Global Currency Reset.

On Friday, July 11 at 7:00 PM ET — the old Fedwire® FAIM wire format for bank money transfers ended permanently.

On Sun. 13 July night at 9:00 PM ET the ISO® 20022 standard went live. Any financial messages not compliant was now rejected, as new digital rails took over with precision-timed data flows.

On Mon. 14 July at 8:33 PM EST (Tues. 15 July 2025 at 03:33 UTC Universal Time), Operation Chrysalis (allegedly) launched. The global currency values quietly recalibrated — marking the final reset. Treasury quantum nodes took full control. Legacy banking systems went into read-only mode. Payment processors now have 11 milliseconds to handshake with the new system, or be frozen and flagged for forensic audit.

Mon. 14 July was the final migration day before all Banks and FedWire went live on ISO20022. The day before “Crypto Week” began as labeled by US President Trump.

On Tues. 15 July, the Emergency Broadcast System (allegedly) locked in. All frequencies shifted from 60Hz to 432Hz, signaling activation.

Redemption Centers were now (allegedly) opened worldwide. Citizens will be invited in to create their own secure QFS wallets through StarLink terminals.

Thurs. 17 July 2025 was rumored to be a celebration day for the new American Republic and Global Currency Reset.

On Fri. 18 July revalued currencies will(allegedly)  be made public. Fiat (allegedly) collapses instantly. QFS wallets activate globally for Tier 5 (the people). Energy, food, and commodity values shift in real time. It’s the end of centralized debt slavery.

GESARA is officially (allegedly) launched: – Global debt wiped – Central banks absorbed – Deepstate wealth returned to the people – Patriot-controlled banking systems emerge

Aug. 1 2025 President Trump: “Payments to citizens start on Aug. 1. You’ll be very happy because you’re gonna get a lot of money.”

Frank26  If the salaries and the HCL is all tied to the oil and it's all found where?  In the budget.  The glue is a new exchange rate.

Militia Man Iraq has about $100 billion in reserves or more and they've got about 146 tons of gold and instead of being just oil they've got non-oil resources.  All of that supports Iraq's real effective exchange rate into the future...

Walkingstick  The HCL belongs to the Iraqi citizens.  They get what's called a stipend, you get a little piece of it.  But that little piece, along with the purchasing power...will make these Iraqi citizens very happy because the oil belongs to the Iraqi citizens...Iraqi citizens all have their own accounts so this stipend of the oil will be given to them.  If they didn't have those bank accounts, they wouldn't be getting this oil...It is now digital.

Dramatic explosions at the Tawke and Peshkabir facilities send black smoke billowing into the sky, forcing an immediate shutdown as workers race to safety.

As the day progresses, chaos escalates with drone strikes hitting the Baadre field and engulfing Sarang in flames, igniting fury across the region.

Accusations fly as the Kurdistan Regional Government decries these strikes as “terrorist attacks,” linking them to Iran-backed militias.

Clare:  IMF Explains Iraq's Exchange Rate Arrangement

16th July 2025   By John Lee.
 
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has issued a brief explainer on Iraq's exchange rate arrangement.

As part of a follow-up to last week's report on the state of the Iraqi economy, the IMF clarified as follows:

"Exchange Rate Arrangement

"Iraq's de jure and de facto exchange rate arrangements are classified as a conventional peg arrangement. The Central Bank Law gives the Board of the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) the authority to formulate exchange rate policy.

"Effective February 8, 2023, the official exchange rate was set at ID 1,320 according to the closing prices of the daily bulletin of gold & main currencies published on the CBI website (www.cbi.iq).

"There has been a change to Iraq's exchange system since the last Article IV Consultation. Iraq continues to avail itself of the transitional arrangements under Article XIV, Section 2 but no longer maintains any restrictions under this provision.

Iraq does not maintain any current account exchange restrictions or MCPs [Managed Currency Pegs].

Starting January 2025, all international transactions have been routed through commercial banks via their correspondent banking relationships (CBRs).

"The Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) replenishes these balances weekly based on foreign exchange demand and conducts audits to ensure that the allocated funds are used in compliance with AML/CFT regulations. Private banks are also encouraged to broaden their CBR networks, particularly with non-U.S. financial institutions."   LINK

 7/16/2025

Mahmoud Khoshnaw, a leader in the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK), revealed that an emergency meeting of the federal cabinet will be held tomorrow to discuss the outstanding issues between Baghdad and Erbil, most notably the salaries of Kurdistan Region employees and oil exports.

 Khoshnaw told Al Furat News: "A meeting was held recently in the region to discuss the salaries issue, and resulted in the approval of a draft memorandum of understanding between the two sides regarding the resumption of oil exports through SOMO, in addition to regulating non-oil revenues."

He added, "Both sides are counting on the Federal Council of Ministers meeting tomorrow, Thursday, to reach a legal and constitutional solution that will end the crisis and put an end to the escalating tension between the central government and the region, particularly regarding financial rights."

We're screwed.  They're never going to raise the value."  Did you also see where the IMF posted Iraq is going through a revaluation of their currency right now?  Which one are you going to accept.

Militia Man  Everybody's ready to do business in Iraq.  Now we're waiting to see if we can get this over the edge at any time now.  We're hoping the resolution comes out of the oil deal with the Kurds and Baghdad.  It's all budget related.  That court case they postponed is effectively budget related because article 12-2C is an amendment for the '23/'24  budget... Before the parliament gets those 2025 budget schedules that's what I'm looking for.

Andy discusses why now could be the time for silver to run to $50 and beyond, how a high silver price could affect industrial demand, the recent BRICS Summit in Rio and its implications for gold and the US dollar, and much more
