Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

BRICS IS MAKING PREPARATIONS FOR A US DOLLAR COLLAPSE

"According to a Russian IMF representative, BRICS is ready to offer an alternative to the US Dollar amid the currency’s collapse, and the bloc must prepare for such an instance. The alliance, consisting of Russia; India, China; Brazil; South Africa; and supporting nations, has been working to abandon the US Dollar for some time."

"The BRICS bloc is working to develop a new BRICS currency to replace the US dollar, alongside local currencies between nations. In an interview with RIA Novosti published on Friday, Russian IMF rep Alexey Mozhin noted that the shortcomings of the current financial system are becoming more apparent.

Furthermore, he points out that many publications have started to mention BRICS as a group that will offer a successful alternative to the greenback."

Furthermore, he points out that many publications have started to mention BRICS as a group that will offer a successful alternative to the greenback."

“Such a proposal is being discussed,” the director told RIA Novosti. “In the event of the collapse of the dollar and the international monetary system, it will be necessary to turn the said BRICS accounting unit into a real currency, backed by exchange goods.”

BRICS CURRENCY TO SERVE AS SUBSTITUTE IF US DOLLAR COLLAPSES

"The BRICS bloc has turned to blockchain technology for its brand-new payment system,
 according to reports. Indeed, its efforts have sought to build a competing currency built on digital assets."

"The US Dollar is still a ways away from crashing altogether, however, the path is there for BRICS to do damage. The greenback is still the global reserve, but a mounting US Debt has ensured that it won’t remain a fact forever.

"Furthermore, support around the BRICS bloc has grown over the past few years, with more countries likely to receive invites to join in 2024.
With more support in numbers and finances, BRICS could develop a strong contending currency to fight the US dollar."

GOLD, SILVER: India's TAX CUT to Offer a Bullish Boost for the Metals?

"Today, India slashed its import tax on gold and silver, a move that could further boost demand for both precious metals in the world’s second-biggest gold market and support higher prices globally. The move will cut taxes on gold and silver imports by more than half, lowering duties from 15 percent to 6 percent."

"India will also lower the import tax on platinum to 6.4 percent."

"World Gold Council Indian operations CEO Sachin Jain told Reuters the tax cut is “a massive step in the right direction.”

“It will reduce the incentives for smuggling of gold. It will create a level playing field for honest industry stakeholders.”

"Gold was up about $14 in overseas trading after officials announced the tax cut. Even with the high import taxes, Indian gold demand has been strong. Through the first five months of 2024, gold imports into India increased by 26 percent year-on-year, with 230 tons of gold flowing into the country. This is despite record-high prices."

"Indians have historically had an affinity for gold. Indian households own an estimated 25,000 tons of gold, and that likely understates the amount given the large black market in the country. Gold is deeply interwoven into the country’s marriage ceremonies and cultural rituals. Indians have long valued the yellow metal as a store of wealth, especially in poorer rural regions."

"Gold isn't considered a luxury in India. Even poor Indians buy gold. According to a 2018 ICE 360 survey, one in every two households in India had purchased gold within the last five years. Overall, 87 percent of Indian households own some gold. Even households at the lowest income levels in India hold some of the yellow metal. According to the survey, more than 75 percent of families in the bottom 10 percent of income managed to buy some gold."

Warren Buffett Dumps $1.5 Billion Worth Bank of America Shares

Ace investor Warren Buffett’s investment arm Berkshire Hathaway has dumped $1.5 billion worth of Bank of America (BAC) shares. The recent regulatory filings show that the billionaire offloaded 33.9 million Bank of America shares. The BAC stocks were sold at an average price of $43.56 per share. After the sale from Berkshire Hathaway, BAC stocks fell to $42.30 with a decline of 1.40%.

The reduction is significant and has come as a surprise to the US stock market. Warren Buffett is known to hold stocks for the long term and not offload them mid-way. However, despite the sell-off, Warren Buffett is still the second-biggest holder of Bank of America stocks. Berkshire Hathaway holds a 10.8% stake in BAC after falling from the top position to the second due to the sell-off

IS TRUMP RIGHT TO WORRY THAT CHINA COULD TAKE OVER CRYPTO?


Does China regret banning Bitcoin mining in 2021? Could it opt back in? Can a single nation even control decentralized assets like BTC?

It’s only recently that Donald Trump has paid any attention to crypto. But now he wants to be the “crypto president,” and he’s raising digital assets as a geopolitical issue.

Asked on July 16 why he’s suddenly embracing the crypto community, he told Bloomberg:

“If we don’t do it, China is going to pick it up and China’s going to have it—or somebody else, but most likely China.”

In the interview, Trump explained how the recent experience with his “Mugshot” NFT Collection “opened my eyes” to cryptocurrencies, saying, “80% of the money [from the NFT sale] was paid in crypto. It was incredible.”

“So we have a good foundation [i.e., crypto]. It’s a baby. It’s an infant right now. But I don’t want to be responsible for allowing another country to take over this sphere,” he added.

His remarks raised several interesting questions — and not just whether China, which banned crypto trading and Bitcoin mining in 2021, is even interested in reentering the crypto trading and mining markets.

It touches on the relationship between governments and the crypto/blockchain sector generally.

To what extent can any single sovereign nation control decentralized and diversified digital assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Is it even possible?


Why China?
China was once a major crypto player. The largest crypto exchanges, such as Binance, were located in China, and as much as 75% of Bitcoin mining took place on the Chinese mainland, according to estimates.


But in 2021, China cracked down on crypto trading and mining, and by July of that year, Bitcoin mining had essentially vanished on the mainland.

Recent developments, however, have raised speculation “that the Chinese government may be warming to cryptocurrency and that Hong Kong may be a testing ground for these efforts,” noted Chainalysis in October.

Indeed, in April 2024, the central government approved the launch of several Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in Hong Kong. Some observers think China wants to make Hong Kong a crypto hub — despite a continued trading ban on the mainland.

China’s Bitcoin ban a “strategic blunder”

“Absolutely,” Daniel Lacalle, chief economist of Tressis, told Cointelegraph.

“Beijing’s 2021 mining crackdown was a strategic blunder,” Emiliano Pagnotta, associate professor of finance at Singapore Management University, told Cointelegraph.

China wants to maintain tight control of capital outflows on the mainland, Wang, assistant professor in the economics department at the University of Essex, told Cointelegraph, which is why it banned crypto trading

But Hong Kong, while controlled by China, has a different economy. It has always had open market policies and free capital flow, and crypto might find a natural home in the former British colony. Wang added:

Hong Kong serves as the hub to allow some capital flow in and out of mainland China, which is important for Hong Kong and also for mainland China.

“The digital asset ETF market in Hong Kong has indeed seen substantial growth since its launch in April 2024,” Patrick Pan, chairman and CEO of OSL — a crypto-exchange now operating in Hong Kong — told Cointelegraph.

Pan added that mainland China “has maintained a stringent stance against cryptocurrency trading and speculations.”

Pan points out, however, that China has largely accepted the importance of cryptocurrencies’ underlying blockchain technology.

“China’s development and gradual rollout of the digital yuan showcase an interest and capacity to embrace blockchain technologies, which bring long-term benefits to the country’s financial infrastructure through enhanced efficiency and security of its financial systems,” said Pan.

China may be softening its stance on crypto
Chinese government decision-making is opaque, so one may never know if China truly regrets its 2021 crypto ban. But what is clear is that “the country is reassessing its approach, especially as it sees the strategic value in digital assets,” Zennon Kapron, founder and director of consulting firm Kapronasia, told Cointelegraph, adding:

“The softening stance in Hong Kong could be a strategic move to remain competitive in the fintech and digital finance space without fully reversing its mainland policy.”

But is it too late?

“China still has advantages, such as access to cheap hardware and electricity in certain regions,” Kapron allowed. “If the government were to provide incentives or loosen restrictions, it’s conceivable that some level of dominance could be reestablished.”

It wouldn’t be easy, though. “The global mining landscape has become more diversified, making it harder for any single country to dominate,” observed Kapron.

“Bitcoin mining is not like making CPUs, but more similar to producing solar panels, building railways, etc. China has the capacity and even the comparative advantage in this type of mass production.”

Crypto trading may be a different matter, though. China is unlikely to change its trading ban on the mainland unless it first changes its capital markets policy, said Wang.

Pagnotta, by comparison, said China could still be a force within the crypto sector, particularly if it demonstrates more pragmatism and regulatory clarity.

“China now seems more open to the crypto industry and has allowed the launch of Bitcoin and ETH ETFs in Hong Kong,” said Moreno.

“Despite China’s ban on Bitcoin mining, Chinese mining pools still hold nearly 54% market share,” CryptoQuant founder Ki Young Ju posted on July 1. “While not all participants in these pools are Chinese, some mining farms might still be operating covertly in China, with authorities possibly concealing data.”

China’s central government also remains a Bitcoin “whale” as a result of its past activities — holding 190,000 BTC, or about 1% of the Bitcoin currently in existence. This is not a trivial amount.

Could China dominate crypto again?
Wang, for his part, believes that if China really sets its mind to it, it could still “play a super important, if not dominating, role” in the global crypto sector.

Not only does it have natural advantages, but there is a huge demand for using cryptocurrencies to send Chinese assets abroad, Wang added, especially given China’s tight capital market controls.

The biggest cryptocurrency exchange platform in the world in terms of trade volume is still Binance, “which is a company started in China by a Chinese but later moved abroad, and still 20% of Binance’s trade comes from China,” noted Wang.

As per Trump’s remarks, is crypto really emerging as a new theater of competition between the great powers? According to Pagnotta:

“Trump wants votes, and he understands that tens of millions of Americans hold digital assets and see it as an important electoral issue. Drawing a contrast to Biden or China in this regard is politically astute.”

At a more profound level, Trump does not want a Chinese/BRICS [i.e, Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa]-led central bank digital currency [CBDC] to become dominant. Even if he did not suddenly become a genuine Bitcoiner, he surely comprehends enough game theory to realize that Bitcoin is the politically neutral global property rights system in the 21st century,” added Pagnotta

In doing so, the former US president could simply be applying the ancient wisdom that “the enemy of my enemy is my friend.”                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      Still, others believe the suggestion that China may once again try to gain dominance in the global crypto market is just plain wrong. Leading cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ether are too diversified and decentralized now to allow control by any one sovereign state.

“China’s influence in the crypto market may grow, particularly through initiatives like the digital yuan,” said Kapron, “but achieving dominance over decentralized cryptocurrencies is a different challenge altogether.”

Trump’s recent utterances may reflect a strategic concern, continued Kapron, “but the reality is that the decentralized and diversified nature of these digital assets acts as a significant barrier to dominance by any single nation.”

Added economist Lacalle:
“There is no such thing as nationalist crypto. The beauty of the crypto market is that it is completely diversified and decentralized. The concept of government control of crypto makes no sense to anyone that understands independent currencies.”

As U.S. Debt Hits Historic Levels, How Close Are We to a Complete System Failure?

Daniela Cambone: 7-23-2024

The U.S. deficit will become worrisome if tax revenue collected by the government falls far short of, or gets too close to, the debt service, claims Joel Litman, President and CEO of Valens Research.

 However, he remains optimistic about the overall U.S. economy. “U.S. assets are easily 50 trillion at the lowest end, probably closer to 100 trillion.

 The U.S. government is still the biggest landowner of U.S. land in the United States,” he states.

Furthermore, Litman provides a clear and informed perspective on why the U.S. remains financially resilient and what measures could ensure continued economic stability.

China Sell 68% of its US Treasury: What's next?

Fastepo:  7-23-2024

The general U.S. perspective of US treasury emphasizes the security and reliability of Treasury securities. Critics, however, point to different aspects.

 They often argue that the massive issuance of U.S. Treasuries is a reflection of the significant national debt, which stood at approximately $34.9 trillion as of July 2024.

They argue that this growing debt could pose long-term economic risks, including potential inflation and increased borrowing costs.

Additionally, they highlight the dependency of the U.S. on foreign investment, particularly from countries like China and Japan, which hold large amounts of U.S. debt—around $1.15 trillion and $1.1 trillion, respectively, as of early 2024.

Tishwash:  Iraq eyes drawdown of US-led forces starting September, sources say

 Iraq wants troops from a U.S.-led military coalition to begin withdrawing in September and to formally end the coalition's work by September 2025, four Iraqi sources said, with some U.S. forces likely to remain in a newly negotiated advisory capacity.

The Iraqi position is being discussed with U.S. officials in Washington this week at a security summit and there is no formal agreement on ending the coalition or any associated timetable yet, the Iraqi sources and U.S officials said.

U.S. State Department spokesperson Mathew Miller told a news briefing that both sides were meeting in Washington this week to determine how to transition the U.S.-led coalition's mission based on the threat posed by Islamic State, adding he had no further details.

U.S.-led forces invaded Iraq in 2003, toppled former leader Saddam Hussein and then withdrew in 2011, only to return in 2014 to fight Islamic State at the head of the coalition.

The U.S. currently has around 2,500 troops in Iraq at the head of a more than 80-member coalition that was formed in 2014 to repel Islamic State as it rampaged across Iraq and Syria.

They are housed at three main bases, one in Baghdad, one in western Anbar province and another in the northern Kurdistan region.

It is unclear how many troops would leave under a deal, with Iraqi sources saying they expected most to eventually depart but U.S. officials saying many may remain under a newly negotiated advise and assist mission.

U.S. officials are keen to have some military footprint in Iraq on a bilateral basis, in part to help support its presence across the border in Syria, where it has around 900 troops.

The issue is highly politicized, with mainly Iran-aligned Iraqi political factions looking to show that they are pushing out the country's one-time occupier again, while U.S. officials want to avoid giving Iran and its allies a win.

There are also concerns about Islamic State's ability to regroup.

The jihadist group was declared territorially defeated in Iraq in 2017 and in Syria in 2019 but still carries out attacks in both countries and is on track to double its attacks in Syria this year compared to 2023, the U.S. military said.

The group and its affiliates have also in recent months carried out attacks in Iran and Russia, as well as in Oman last week for the first time.

While the coalition's mission is to advise and assist Iraqi forces in the fight against the Islamic State, Western officials say the U.S. and its allies also see its presence in Iraq as a check on Iranian influence.

Washington and Baghdad initiated talks on the future of the coalition in January amid tit-for-tat attacks between Iran-backed Shi'ite Muslim armed groups and U.S. forces that were sparked by the Israel-Hamas war.

An agreement to draw down the coalition could be a political win for Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani, who has been under pressure from Iran-aligned factions to push out U.S. forces but has sought to do so in a way that balances Iraq's delicate position as an ally of both Washington and Tehran. link

Tishwash:  The Oil and Gas Law has been imprisoned in Parliament for 19 years and is threatened with deportation to the next session

The secret lies in the consensus of political forces

Political disagreements and a lack of consensus since the first session of the House of Representatives made the draft oil and gas law a victim and locked in parliament's drawers.

In each session, conflicts prevent its approval in its final form, as five parliamentary sessions have passed and the law has not been released until today.

The Parliamentary Oil, Gas and Natural Resources Committee expects that the law will be transferred to the next parliamentary session, despite the visit of the head of the Kurdistan Democratic Party, Masoud Barzani, early this month, to the capital, Baghdad, and his meeting with political leaders.

A member of the Parliamentary Oil and Gas Committee, Ali Al-Lami, said in an interview with Al-Mada, “One of the reasons for obstructing the approval of the oil and gas law is the continuing disputes between the governments of Baghdad and Erbil “

He added that his committee "sent the law at the beginning of the current parliamentary session to the government, and we met with the Prime Minister, the President of the Republic, and all the heads of blocs and parties, and we explained the importance of this law."
The member of the House of Representatives points out, “The law is unlikely to be approved during the current session, as it requires study and reading,” suggesting that “the law will be transferred to the next parliamentary session.”

The draft Iraqi oil and gas law regulates Iraq's vital sector and the management of the country's oil fields through one national company, with imports being deposited in one account.

Iraq exports an average of 3.3 million barrels of crude oil per day, and black gold constitutes more than 90 percent of the Iraqi treasure's resources.

For her part, a member of the Parliamentary Oil and Gas Committee, Zainab Al-Moussawi, said in an interview with Al-Mada, “The law is almost complete, and to a high degree, but there are some objections about some points, which are summed up in the delivery of oil imports and exploited and unexploited natural resources to Baghdad.”

Al-Mousawi adds, “The Oil and Gas Law is concerned with regulating the country’s natural resources and exploiting the largest possible amount of undiscovered oil fields.”

She points out that "the law will also contribute to achieving self-sufficiency in oil derivatives and optimal exploitation of wasted natural resources, valued at hundreds of billions of dollars, which contribute to diversifying the state's financial resources."

The draft oil and gas law in Iraq available to Parliament stipulates that responsibility for managing the country's oil fields must be entrusted to and supervised by a national oil company.

In August 2023, the Prime Minister, Muhammad Shiaa Al-Sudani, confirmed that “the draft oil and gas law is one of the basic and important laws, representing a factor of strength and unity for Iraq, and it has been stuck for years, At a time when the country today is in dire need of its legislation and to benefit from this natural wealth, in every way.” Fields and sectors, as well as the contribution of the legislation to solve many outstanding problems.”

He explained, “There are governorates that have not invested their wealth, which is considered negative for development endeavors in all their paths.”

In February 2022, the Federal Court in Baghdad ordered the region to deliver the oil produced on its lands to Baghdad, and to cancel contracts the region had signed with foreign companies.
The matter reached the point where the judiciary in Baghdad invalidated contracts with many foreign companies, especially American and Canadian companies.  link

Global Currency Reset: (Opinions/Rumors)

Mon. 22 July 2024 Wolverine (his Tues. 23 July):

“It is Tuesday afternoon here, and it is very cold. I am letting you know the Precatorios has started today from 3 o’clock onward and will actually be releasing their opera. They sent a note saying, “Tomorrow we will have a wonderful complete opera concert.”

“They will send me their opera so their people can celebrate. Finally a huge platform is going to be releasing funds to many people with billions of dollars involved. A lot of people will be astronomically blessed.

“Reno and Zurich are moving. Some whales are flying to Zurich, one huge Whale is now purchasing his airline ticket to fly down there.

“We are waiting to hear more news from bond holders. Waiting to get the miracle call this week.

“Nothing for 4B group – this is a letdown. I was told that some 4A groups have received payments, but not liquid money yet.  It is a start. Hopefully, those accounts will become liquid this week. 

“That is about it. The big news is that the Precatorios have started. I talked to the owner and he said “Wolvie, I am at the bank at the moment.” They have their green light and they will be released by tomorrow.

“I am waiting to receive the call so I can fly out. When that happens Carpathia and Shelby will be looking after the channel. I hope to have better news for all of you tomorrow.   

“Story about a couple I just received: This couple was just about to hand over their house as they could not afford the mortgage, and that same day they saw the figures for their mortgage and they had zero balance. Their account has actually been cleared, so maybe Nesara is working and people are getting their accounts cleared. This was the same day they were to lose their home and this miracle occurred.   

“I received a call this morning. Funds will be released tomorrow Tues. 23 July (later he changed it to Wed.) They will be liquid. I received an email saying the RV was imminent and about to commence. It’s official. Keep an eye on your emails.”

Frank26   Once they remove these 3 zeros from the exchange rate...it's going to gain in the new value.  But that's not where they wanted at the RI.  They will float it and they will re-denominate and then it will hit an RV as it floats from an RI back to the RV.  

SkyWalker  Currency value and an exchange rate are two totally different things and are determined differently. Changing the exchange rate does not make value. Value is made by the monetary policies that CBI and Iraqi government have put in place...Now, the inflationary zeros will be removed because the government has met the requirements of the CBI and made an economic environment that will support both the value of the dinar and keep the economy humming along. Value through policies must be restored first which will be represented with new notes being lower denominations... Meaning the three zero notes will be physically removed from circulation and the lower notes without the extra zeros will be issued. Then and only then the exchange rate reflects an increase in the relative price of the Iraqi dinar compared to the price of another currency.

DJ: DID YOU KNOW?

July 21st Post 2024 (Procrastination)

With the troubles of the world in full swing daily, and the relentless narratives of Intel providers spewing exaggerated or expanded information of the engagement of the GCR, our minds go to a place of hope. But not the good kind.

Hope, while often a virtue, can foster procrastination when it becomes an expectation of future rewards rather than an active motivator for present action. When we hope for an ideal outcome, such as a sudden windfall or a perfect opportunity, we may convince ourselves that waiting is the best course of action.

This kind of hope can lead to a false sense of security, making us believe that our desired future will materialize on its own, without the need for our immediate effort.

July 21st Post 2024 (Procrastination)

With the troubles of the world in full swing daily, and the relentless narratives of Intel providers spewing exaggerated or expanded information of the engagement of the GCR, our minds go to a place of hope. But not the good kind.

Hope, while often a virtue, can foster procrastination when it becomes an expectation of future rewards rather than an active motivator for present action. When we hope for an ideal outcome, such as a sudden windfall or a perfect opportunity, we may convince ourselves that waiting is the best course of action.

This kind of hope can lead to a false sense of security, making us believe that our desired future will materialize on its own, without the need for our immediate effort. Consequently, we delay taking steps toward our goals, assuming that circumstances will eventually align in our favor. This passive hope, detached from action, transforms into a subtle but powerful form of procrastination, where the anticipation of future success undermines the imperative to act in the present.

Procrastination steals time and opportunity highlighting our tendency to delay tasks despite knowing their eventual necessity. While we waste our time hesitating and postponing, life is slipping away. While we may delay, time will not. At its core, this is the damage done by Intel providers with their misleading dialogs and exaggerations.

Whether it’s waiting for a perfect opportunity, a financial breakthrough, or a stroke of inspiration, this waiting game often leads to complacency. The idea of waiting for a windfall can be seductive. It offers the comfort of a future where everything falls perfectly into place without effort and often results in missed opportunities and unfulfilled potential. The belief in an imminent windfall can create this dangerous complacency. By postponing action, we often find ourselves unprepared when our supposed windfall arrives. This delay can lead to regret and the painful realization of wasted time.

As Aristotle suggested, “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.” By developing habits of consistent effort and incremental progress, we can overcome the damage of procrastination and build a life of achievement and fulfillment.

The point is, absorb this information as it comes but don’t be so preoccupied with it that it changes the course your life might have otherwise taken. Be mindful of the stagnation and complacency it can cause and devote your efforts and time to it when you have it in hand.

If you know how to swim, waiting on the bank for a boat to show up may not be the best way across the water. These Intel providers keep telling you the boat is on the way, don’t let yourself get left on the bank stuck in the mud.

Henig: Vietnam: New decree on cashless payments

BY OANH H. K. NGUYEN, THUY VAN T. PHAM AND VIET TRUNG NGUYEN  JULY 16, 2024 

In brief

On 15 May 2024, the Government officially issued the new Decree No. 52/2024/ND-CP to regulate cashless payments (“Decree No. 52“). Decree No. 52 takes effect from 1 July 2024 and replaces the previous Decree No. 101/2012/ND-CP on cashless payments, as amended from time to time (“Decree No. 101“).

Among other things, Decree No. 52 sets forth regulations mainly on opening and using payment accounts, cashless payment services and intermediary payment services (IPS). Decree No. 52 aims to promote non-cash payments, facilitating the digital transformation of the banking industry and developing superior payment products and services.

Key takeaways

Decree No. 52 provides a number of significant changes and novel provisions, some of which are highlighted below.

Decree No. 52 imposes stricter requirements on entities wishing to provide the services. In addition, electronic money remittance support services are no longer considered a kind of IPS.

Decree No. 52 provides more detailed guidelines on how payments in foreign currencies and international payments are made. It also sets forth the conditions for entities wishing to participate in the international payment system.

The definition of electronic money (e-money) is introduced for the first time, and e-wallets and prepaid cards are accordingly regulated as a mean to store e-money.

More in-depth in the rest of the story at the link--this is a fairly long article, didn't want to take up too much bandwidth on this site.

Jeff   There was a perception out there that the rate was going to change before the July 18th accession date to the World Trade...This was their 3rd accession World Trade meeting.  There's a 4th meeting coming in Q1 of next year of '25...Many thought Iraq would become a full member as of July 18th.  None of that happened.

Seven-State Coalition Opposes SEC’s Cryptocurrency Regulation

The Office of the Attorney General of Iowa announced earlier this month that Iowa Attorney General Brenna Bird led a seven-state coalition in filing an amicus brief opposing the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) attempt to regulate cryptocurrencies. The amicus brief, supported by Arkansas, Indiana, Kansas, Montana, Nebraska, and Oklahoma, was filed on July 10 to challenge the SEC’s overreach.

“SEC’s power grab may stop states from protecting their citizens from scams, and it hurts the free market,” the announcement details, adding: SEC’s policing of cryptocurrency will stifle innovation and devastate the cryptocurrency industry.

States like Iowa, which have been at the forefront of protecting scam victims and prosecuting scammers, view the SEC’s actions as a significant overreach.

Seven-State Coalition Opposes SEC’s Cryptocurrency Regulation

The Office of the Attorney General of Iowa announced earlier this month that Iowa Attorney General Brenna Bird led a seven-state coalition in filing an amicus brief opposing the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) attempt to regulate cryptocurrenciesThe amicus brief, supported by Arkansas, Indiana, Kansas, Montana, Nebraska, and Oklahoma, was filed on July 10 to challenge the SEC’s overreach.

“SEC’s power grab may stop states from protecting their citizens from scams, and it hurts the free market,” the announcement details, adding:

SEC’s policing of cryptocurrency will stifle innovation and devastate the cryptocurrency industry.

States like Iowa, which have been at the forefront of protecting scam victims and prosecuting scammers, view the SEC’s actions as a significant overreach.

“The Biden SEC is trying to prevent states like Iowa from doing their job to hold robbers to the law and protect families from the dangers of cryptocurrency scams. This power grab will also hurt the free market and allow the SEC to take the regulatory reins over the cryptocurrency industry with no accountability,” the announcement continues.

Noting that the SEC’s “bypassing Congress to give itself new power is illegal, stifles innovation, and will let scammers off the hook,” the Iowa Attorney General’s Office noted, emphasizing:

The Biden SEC is attempting to abuse its power and put itself in charge of regulating cryptocurrency, bypassing state consumer-protection laws.

“Congress never gave the SEC power to regulate cryptocurrency, and there is no accountability to ensure the actions the SEC takes are legitimate and necessary,” the Iowa Attorney General’s Office stressed.

The amicus brief explains that the SEC is violating the Administrative Procedure Act and the Major Questions Doctrine by bypassing Congress. The states argue that typical cryptocurrencies are not investment contracts under the Securities Act of 1934, urging the court to prevent the SEC from exceeding its authority.

Japan’s Fast And Early Approach To Crypto Regulation Is Paying Off

Japan was a rare exception when it came to regulating crypto. Following the catastrophic collapse of Mt.Gox in 2014 – a Japan-based company – the government moved fast and early to clamp down on what was seen as an excessively risky industry. It introduced strict rules for operators, putting them under the oversight of the country’s financial regulator.

That decision means that ten years on, Web3 in Japan is evolving quite differently compared to the startup culture that’s characterized the sector in other countries. Instead, we’re seeing a more prevalent trend of large corporations levering their way into Web3 via strategic M&A and investment activities.

To date, banking giant Softbank has been one of the
most active players, acquiring a controlling stake in crypto trading platform BITPoint in 2022 and becoming a key investor in a dedicated Web3 venture fund initially set up by Deutsche Bank.

However, the latest news, that Sony is gearing up to launch a rebranded crypto exchange called. S.BLOX, as a result of a 2023 acquisition of local platform Whalefin, has created a froth in the crypto community.

I recently spoke to Mai Fujimoto, co-founder of INTMAX, who was fresh from the Japan Blockchain Week Summit which she hosted in early July. She confirmed that, based on the lineup of this year’s event, the corporate move into Web3 is becoming a trend:

“This [Sony] is just one such example. We just hosted many speakers from large corporations [at Japan Blockchain Week], which stood out on the Web3 conference circuit. I believe this is unique to Japan. In the United States, Coinbase and Base

Chain have significantly contributed to the penetration of Web3 in the country, so we can expect similar synergies to occur in Japan as well.”

WHAT IS A CURRENCY RE-DENOMINATION?

"Redenomination is the recalibration of a country's currency, typically due to hyperinflation and currency devaluation, whereby an old currency is exchanged for a new one at a fixed rate. "

"While significant inflation is the main reason for a country to redenominate its currency, other reasons include decimalization or joining a currency union. When redenomination occurs, old banknotes and coins are typically taken out of circulation and a new currency is issued. Sometimes, the old currency continues to circulate at a fixed value against the new notes. "

"When redenomination occurs, a new value is established for the new banknotes and coins. For example, in 2006, Zimbabwe redenominated its currency at a rate of 1,000 old Zimbabwe dollars to one new Zimbabwe dollar."

"When hyperinflation is involved, redenomination becomes necessary because it requires too many old notes to facilitate commerce. Small bills essentially become useless if you need a wheel barrel of them to buy a loaf of bread. "

" Probably the most famous redenomination has been the Zimbabwean dollar, which circulated in Z$100 trillion bills—the largest denomination of currency ever issued—thanks to an annual inflation rate of more than 231 million percent.


The Zimbabwe government redenominated its currency several times starting in 2006. In that year, the country's first currency reform was launched in an effort to contain inflation. The Zimbabwean dollar was redenominated at a rate of 1,000 to one."

" In August 2008, the government launched another redenomination. Old notes could be exchanged for new ones at a rate of 10 billion to one. Inflation continued unabated, and new issues of currency with staggering face amounts continued to appear. In January 2009, Z$10 trillion, Z$20 trillion, Z$50 trillion, and Z$100 trillion notes were issued.

In February 2009, the government redenominated a third time. Old currency could be exchanged for new currency at a rate of one trillion to one. By then, most people had quit the Zimbabwe dollar in favor of the U.S. dollar and South African rand."

US Pressure on Latin America to Avoid BRICS: Lost America's Backyard?

Fastepo:  7-22-2024

Despite the BRICS group's recent pause on accepting new full members, particularly emphasized by the Russian Foreign Minister, Brazil has actively advocated for the bloc's continued expansion.

Brazilian Ambassador to Russia, Rodrigo de Lima Baena Soares, revealed Brazil's proposal of Colombia as a potential new BRICS member, as reported by the Russian News Agency TASS.

This strategic recommendation was underscored by Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva during discussions with Colombian President Gustavo Petro, highlighting Colombia's significance in the expansion plan.

US Pressure on Latin America to Avoid BRICS: Lost America's Backyard?

Fastepo:  7-22-2024

Despite the BRICS group's recent pause on accepting new full members, particularly emphasized by the Russian Foreign Minister, Brazil has actively advocated for the bloc's continued expansion.

Brazilian Ambassador to Russia, Rodrigo de Lima Baena Soares, revealed Brazil's proposal of Colombia as a potential new BRICS member, as reported by the Russian News Agency TASS.

This strategic recommendation was underscored by Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva during discussions with Colombian President Gustavo Petro, highlighting Colombia's significance in the expansion plan.

In addition, Bolivia, under the leadership of President Luis Arce, has formally sought BRICS membership. Bolivia's vast lithium reserves, essential for sustainable energy solutions, make it an attractive candidate for the bloc.

Similarly, Venezuela, led by President Nicolás Maduro, has expressed a strong desire to join BRICS, emphasizing its substantial oil reserves. Venezuela's application has garnered support from China, Russia, and Brazil, underscoring its strategic importance.

The expansion of BRICS into Latin America represents a significant geopolitical shift, diminishing the influence of the United States, which has traditionally viewed the region as its geopolitical "backyard."

By incorporating more Latin American countries, BRICS aims to create a counterbalance to U.S. economic and political dominance. This move is expected to enhance regional integration, reduce dependence on U.S. markets, and promote a more diversified economic base.

In this video, we analyze the significance of Colombia, Bolivia, and Venezuela's potential inclusion in BRICS and its implications for both BRICS and the United States.

This development could potentially reshape the global order, altering economic alliances and geopolitical strategies.

We will explore how this move could challenge U.S. dominance in Latin America and enhance BRICS' influence on the world stage, thereby creating a new dynamic in international relations.

The Rise of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization: A New Geopolitical and Military Force

On July 20, 2024 By Awake-In-3D

The SCO is reshaping global geopolitics and will independently protect the new GOLD-BACKED Currency and Financial System

In This Article:

  • Introduction to the SCO’s growing influence

  • The recent SCO summit in Astana and Western media’s oversight

  • BRICS’ new financial system and the SCO’s role in securing it

  • The future of Eurasian alliances and the concept of Rimland

The geopolitical landscape is undergoing a significant transformation with the rise of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO).

Formed initially to combat terrorism and extremism, the SCO has evolved into a formidable economic and geopolitical entity. Its growing influence, alongside BRICS+, signals a shift that Western alliances like NATO and the G7 must acknowledge and adapt to.

Understanding the Shanghai Cooperation Organization Transformation

The Shanghai Cooperation Organization was established just months before the events of 9/11.

Initially known as the Shanghai Five, it included Russia, China, and three Central Asian states. Its primary focus was anti-terrorism, anti-separatism, and anti-extremism. Over the years, the SCO has expanded its scope, now including major Eurasian nations such as India, Pakistan, and Iran, making it a significant player on the global stage.

The recent SCO summit in Astana, Kazakhstan, highlighted this transformation. Despite the event’s importance, Western media largely overlooked it.

This lack of coverage reflects a broader misunderstanding of the SCO’s growing geopolitical influence. The summit underscored the SCO’s role as a key node in a multipolar world, interconnected with various global players.

BRICS’ New Financial System and the SCO’s Role

One of the most significant developments in global finance is BRICS’ move towards a new financial system based on gold-backed currencies.

This initiative aims to create an alternative to the Western-controlled economic mechanisms, providing stability and reducing dependence on the US dollar. However, establishing such a system requires robust geopolitical and military support to ensure its security and legality.

Enter the SCO. With its expanding membership and strategic influence, the SCO is poised to play a crucial role in protecting the integrity of BRICS’ new financial system. The collaboration between these two organizations could ensure the enforcement of economic agreements, protect member states from external threats, and maintain the stability of the new financial system.

The presence of powerful nations like Russia, China, India, and Iran within the SCO enhances its capability to support BRICS in this endeavor.

Potential Impacts on NATO and U.S. Geopolitical Strategies

The strategic significance of Europe and the Mediterranean remains crucial. However, the rise of the SCO and BRICS+ poses a challenge to Western dominance.

If the U.S. and NATO do not recognize and adapt to these shifting alliances, they risk losing influence over Eurasia and the Rimland.

The Rimland, a geopolitical concept introduced by American political scientist Nicholas Spykman, refers to the coastal fringes of Eurasia. This region is strategically vital, serving as a buffer zone between the central Heartland of Eurasia and the world’s oceans.

Controlling the Rimland is essential for global dominance, providing access to crucial maritime routes and Eurasia’s vast resources and markets.

The Future of Eurasian Alliances

The potential unification of the SCO and BRICS+ into a more strategic and possibly military organization could further diminish Western hegemony.

The increasing cooperation among these entities suggests a move towards a unified Eurasian geopolitical landscape. Such a development could redefine global power dynamics, with significant implications for the West.

The SCO’s evolution from an anti-terrorism organization to a geopolitical force underscores the importance of understanding and engaging with emerging multipolar structures. As the SCO and BRICS+ continue to grow, their influence will shape the future of global geopolitics, challenging traditional Western dominance.

The Bottom Line

The Shanghai Cooperation Organization is rapidly becoming a geopolitical force to be reckoned with.

Its growing influence, alongside BRICS+, highlights the need for the U.S. and NATO to recognize and adapt to the shifting global landscape. The recent SCO summit in Astana underscores the organization’s strategic importance in reshaping global geopolitics.

As Eurasian alliances strengthen, the concept of Rimland and its strategic significance will play a crucial role in determining the future of global power dynamics. With BRICS forming a new financial system based on gold-backed currencies, the SCO’s role in securing this system becomes paramount.

The potential unification of the SCO and BRICS+ poses a significant challenge to Western hegemony, signaling the rise of a new, multipolar world order.

Judy Note: The greatest Financial Bubble in Human History was about to pop: Stocks to lose over 50% of their value – that would bring in a Global Financial Collapse – something both the Black and White Hats wanted.

With a collapse of the Global Financial System the Deep State Black Hats would bring in their non asset-backed digital currency that could control everyone’s bank accounts, and lives.

The White Hats appeared to have one up on the Cabal as they have already involved over 50% of the World population in their Global Currency Reset to gold/asset-backed currencies that would trade at a 1:1 with each other.

Executive Order 1221 involves:

Economic Collapse and Transition to the Quantum Financial System: A planned economic collapse is a central aspect of Executive Order 1221. This controlled demolition of the current financial system aims to eliminate debt and corruption, paving the way for the introduction of the Quantum Financial System (QFS). The QFS promises unprecedented security, transparency, and efficiency, leveraging advanced technologies to manage financial transactions. The transition to the QFS will involve a Global Currency Reset, reverting to 1950s price levels. This reset will stabilize economies, restore purchasing power, and eliminate the disparities created by inflation and market manipulation. While the immediate impact will be disruptive, the long-term benefits are expected to be transformative.

The removal of Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and China Coin (CCP) from circulation to stabilize the global economy and prevent the misuse of these digital assets by malicious actors. The eradication of these cryptocurrencies will require coordinated global action, including the seizure of mining operations and the shutdown of trading platforms. This move is expected to cause significant disruption in the financial markets, but it is seen as a necessary step to pave the way for a more secure and regulated financial system.

NESARA implements the following changes:

Zeros out all credit card, mortgage, and other bank debt due to illegal banking and government activities. This is the Federal Reserve’s worst nightmare: a “jubilee” or a forgiveness of debt.

Abolishes the income tax.

Abolishes the IRS. Employees of the IRS will be transferred into the US Treasury national sales tax area.

Creates a 14% flat rate non-essential ‘new items only’ sales tax revenue for the government. In other words, food and medicine will not be taxed; nor will used items such as old homes.

Increases benefits to senior citizens

Creates a new U.S. Treasury, ‘rainbow currency,’ backed by gold, silver, and platinum precious metals, ending the bankruptcy of the United States initiated by Franklin Roosevelt in 1933.

Initiates new U.S. Treasury Bank System in alignment with Constitutional Law

Eliminates the Federal Reserve System. During the transition period the Federal Reserve will be allowed to operate side by side of the U.S. Treasury for one year in order to remove all Federal Reserve notes from the money supply.

Restores financial privacy.

Releases enormous sums of money for humanitarian purposes

Walkingstick  Iraq never said they were coming out at 1 to 1...It was actually established during the Paris Club Agreement.  That was said to Iraq, Shabibi, at least 1 to 1 with the American dollar.

Frank26  Do they need to have value to their currency in order to join the WTO?  No.  That's coming...I don't care if they going into the WTO now, tomorrow, next week, whenever.  They're probably moving it to the beginning of next year.  It's not important.  But the evidence of being in the WTO screams what?  Monetary reform float.

PROOF That They are LYING about the Economy!

Atlantis Report:  7-21-2024

There is a common narrative about the state of the economy that's often promoted by mainstream media and political figures, particularly those supporting this current administration.

 According to this narrative, everything is going great - the economy is booming, inflation is under control, and the labor market is thriving.

 However, many Americans find it hard to believe these optimistic reports because their daily experiences don't align with them.

The stark disparity between official economic accounts and personal experiences has prompted many to doubt the honesty of economic reports. Here's PROOF That They are LYING about the Economy.

Romanowski said on her account on the "X" platform, "Security officials from the United States and Iraq will discuss the future of the international coalition mission and strengthening security cooperation between our two countries."

Negotiations between Baghdad and Washington resumed last February, with the adoption of a deliberate and gradual reduction, leading to the end of the mission of the international coalition forces to combat ISIS, according to official Iraqi statements, to be followed by two other rounds in March and April.

There are about 2,500 American soldiers in Iraq, as part of the international coalition led by Washington since September 2014. The soldiers are distributed across three main sites in Iraq: Ain al-Assad base in Anbar, Harir base in Erbil, and Camp Victoria adjacent to Baghdad International Airport. In addition to the American forces, there are French, Australian, and British forces operating within the coalition forces, and others within NATO in Iraq. link

Tishwash:  Al-Nusairi: Implementing banking reform strategies is the main pillar for reforming the national economy 

The advisor to the Iraqi Private Banks Association, Samir Al-Nusairi, confirmed today, Monday, that the banking reform and development strategy is the main pillar for reforming the comprehensive national economy.

Al-Nusairi said in a special interview with “Al-Eqtisad News” that “the strategy of banking reform and development is the basic pillar for comprehensive and radical reform of the national economy in line with what is stated in Article Twelve, Paragraph (7) of the government program, which clearly and accurately stated that (banking reform, with what it provides of a real and effective basis for the advancement of the Iraqi economy and the activation of investment through the restructuring and mechanization of government banks, reviewing their work, and stimulating and enabling private banks to be able to support investment and development in a real way).”

Al-Nusairi touched on the "importance of the banking sector, as it occupies a vital position within the financial structure of the economy in mobilizing savings and financing development through its ability to flow money between the categories of the national economy, which is the basic step for economic reform."

He pointed out "the measures currently taken by the Central Bank with the support of the government to launch its new third strategy for reforming and developing the banking sector for the years 2024-2026 according to seven main objectives, 24 sub-objectives and 75 initiatives to implement the objectives focusing on achieving monetary and financial stability, strengthening the banking sector, enhancing digital transformation, activating electronic payment, enhancing financial inclusion, maintaining a sound financial system, developing the organizational structure and human resources, strengthening the internal and external relations of the Central Bank, and the banking sector's compliance with international standards."

Al-Nusairi pointed out that "a national strategy for bank lending in Iraq for the years 2024-2029 was launched, aiming to increase credit granted to the private sector by 4% of the non-oil GDP, which is equivalent to approximately 7 trillion dinars, and the second goal is to increase credit to small and medium enterprises by 3% of the non-oil GDP, which is equivalent to approximately 5 trillion dinars."

He stressed that "the new mechanisms depend on organizing the granting of loans to develop small, medium and micro enterprises by relying on and relying on a new approach to determine the basic objectives of economic development, evaluating the current situation of private sector financing, and benefiting from international experiences in this field, as well as continuing the procedures and using monetary policy applications to control the exchange rate and reduce the gap between the official rate and the parallel rate towards reaching the targeted and balanced exchange rate."

 Al-Nusairi explained that, "If it were not for the many services provided by the banking system in developed countries, these countries would not have been able to achieve the progress and economic growth they have achieved."

He explained that "the strength of the banking structure has become a necessity for building a prosperous economy that adopts modern systems and sound sustainable development. The development of banking habits and awareness of the importance of developing banking institutions in a way that ensures the building of a national savings base and develops the financial resources necessary to build the economy have become priorities for decision-makers."

The advisor to the Private Banks Association continued: “The soundness of the banking system and the mobilization of sound decisions in the field of economic policies towards developing and modernizing banking systems ensures the achievement of momentum in the world of real and financial investment, which stimulates financial and monetary markets, which leads to attracting foreign capital seeking profit.

Therefore, the decision-maker should take the necessary measures to fortify and strengthen local banking systems in a way that makes them capable of facing the challenges of transferring capital to and from abroad without causing money laundering or smuggling foreign currency, and then increasing the profitability of financial and banking institutions and strengthening the structure of the gross domestic product, which is what the government and the Central Bank are currently active in.”  link

Tishwash:  The sudden rise of the dollar in Iraq: Does it threaten the stability of the national economy?

Dollar prices exceed their limits: Are we facing an unprecedented cash crisis in Iraq?

 Currency exchange markets in Iraq witnessed a significant increase in the exchange rate of the US dollar against the Iraqi dinar this Monday morning. Prices in the markets of Baghdad and Erbil, the capital of the Kurdistan Region, recorded a significant increase, which raises questions about the possible causes and economic impacts of these changes.

Price hike details

t the opening of the two main stock exchanges in Baghdad, Al-Kifah and Al-Harithiya, the dollar rose to 149,250 dinars for every 100 dollars, compared to 149,000 dinars recorded yesterday. In local markets, the selling price of the dollar reached 150,250 dinars, while the buying price recorded 148,250 dinars for every 100 dollars. In Erbil, the dollar also recorded an increase in exchange shops, where the selling price reached 149,400 dinars and the buying price 149,300 dinars for every 100 dollars.

Possible reasons

The rise in the dollar exchange rate is due to several possible factors, including:

Changes in supply and demand: There may be an increase in demand for the US dollar by businesses or individuals, causing the price to rise.

Global economic shifts: Changes in global economic policies and oil prices can affect currency exchange rates.

Local economic conditions: Local economic challenges, such as fiscal deficits or political tensions, may lead to exchange rate fluctuations.

Economic impacts

This increase comes at a sensitive time for the Iraqi economy, as it may lead to several noticeable economic impacts:

Increased import costs: As the dollar rises, the cost of imports will become higher, which may affect domestic prices of goods and services.

Impact on citizens: Citizens who depend on importing goods and products in dollars may be affected by an increase in the cost of living.

Impact on investment: A rise in exchange rates can have negative effects on foreign and domestic investment, as investors may look for more stable markets.

The rise in the US dollar exchange rate against the Iraqi dinar is an important issue that requires close monitoring. It is important for investors and economic decision makers to monitor developments and take the necessary steps to mitigate the potential negative effects on the national economy.  link

Clare:  Iraq intends to connect its electricity with Kuwait and the Gulf at the end of the year, and then with Saudi Arabia

7/21/2024

Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani confirmed on Sunday that his government intends to link Iraq's electricity with Kuwait and the Gulf Interconnection Authority at the end of 2024, and then move to link with Saudi Arabia to diversify energy sources when demand increases during peak times in the country.

Al-Sudani said in a speech during the opening of the Iraqi-Turkish electricity linkage project, "The value and importance of this project is that it had been suspended since 2004, and it had been planned since the nineties of the last century, and today it has been completed in coordination with the Turkish Ministry of Energy."

He added, "The value of this project is that for the first time we have an international connection with neighboring Turkey and then to the European Union, and this is an important and strategic factor for energy at the future level."

Al-Sudani added, "After we were able to connect with the Jordanian side, and today with Turkey, and hopefully at the end of this year with Kuwait and the Gulf Interconnection Authority, then we will head to complete our important project with Saudi Arabia so that Iraq can complete its communication with the regional energy system in a way that allows for diversity and exchange in various conditions of peak electrical loads."   LINK

Militia Man  Article:  "Removing the zeros from the Iraqi currency talks returns and possibility of implementation"  How is that possible...without having value...When they talk about removing zeros from the Iraqi currency they're talking about returning to a previous era.  They're talking about the glory days.  I think everybody...knows in the country too, I just can't say we can prove it from a link in print.  But the expectation is Iraq is going to bring value to their currency.  We know that by Al-Sudan's comments...that the Iraq dinar would be 1 dollar...equal 1.32 dinar.

Frank26   [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report]   FIREFLY:
My bank guy said when the zeros come off the exchange rate it's going to change the value of our currency and then your brother who is in the Untied States of America, they can exchange their notes with the 3-zeros after the RI takes action.

"There's Nowhere Else To Kick The Can" | Lyn Alden

Liberty and Finance: 7-20-2024

Lyn Alden explores the diminishing impact of interest rate cuts on the U.S. economy

With interest rates now higher than in recent decades, Alden argues that the economy's insensitivity to rate changes stems from the high level of fixed-rate debt held by both consumers and businesses. She explains that, unlike past cycles, current rate cuts may have limited effects on economic activity and housing market dynamics.

She also touches on the broader implications for asset markets, including the potential impact on housing inventory and the comparative experience of Japan's long-term economic challenges.

Rick Rule: $100 Trillion Dollars in Liability; Why This is Far Worse Than Post Vietnam Dollar Crisis

Daniela Cambone:  7-20-2024

"The U.S. dollar will lose substantial purchasing power in the next 10 years," warns Rick Rule, founder and CEO of Rule Investment Media.

During this year's Rule Symposium in Florida, he explained to Daniela Cambone that exploding liabilities, including $100 billion in entitlements such as Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security, are likely to greatly devalue the U.S. dollar. Rule also emphasized the importance of owning gold to hedge against future uncertainties.

“I own gold because I'm afraid it's going to go to $8,000 or $9,000 or $10,000. I really want to be wrong. And you own gold hoping you'll never have to sell it,” he concludes. Watch the powerful video to learn more about his thoughts.
