“This isn’t about creating a memecoin,” Trump Jr. stated, emphasizing that his initiative represents a broader and more impactful platform. However, he did caution that it will be some time before the project comes to fruition, withholding specific timelines for now.
"He expressed frustration with the current financial system’s exclusivity and its tendency to limit financing opportunities to select individuals. “Decentralized finance is very appealing to me, especially for those of us who have been debanked,” he said.
"Speculation about the new crypto project surged earlier in the week after Trump Jr. tweeted about DeFi, leading many to believe it might involve a new memecoin. On August 7, he posted on X, “We’re about to shake up the crypto world with something HUGE. Decentralized finance is the future — don’t get left behind.”
"Trump Jr. also warned against fraudulent tokens claiming affiliation with the Trump name, stating, “I love the crypto community’s enthusiasm for Trump, but beware of fake tokens. The only official project will be announced by us directly, and it will be fair for everyone.”

BRICS Strike Back: Russia and India Team Up to Challenge Dollar Dominance
The trend of de-dollarization continues to gain traction despite many analysts saying the threat is overblown as India and Russia have announced a new partnership that will see their respective payment systems – India’s RuPay and Russia’s MIR – integrated to allow for seamless cross-border transactions without the need for U.S. dollars.
The partnership announcement follows the recent visit by India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi to Moscow, during which the two countries forged new alliances and trade agreements. At the meeting, India confirmed its commitment to open trade with Russia, a key BRICS counterpart, and will facilitate trade using the RuPay and MIR payment systems.
As part of their agreement, Russian President Vladimir Putin and Modi reportedly set a goal to achieve $100 billion in trade turnover between Russia and India by 2030.

America threatened Iran today, Thursday, August 8, 2024, with a "strike and devastating consequences" if it launched a major attack against Israel, in revenge for the assassination of former political bureau chief Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran at the end of last month.

Tishwash: Sudden escalation"... America threatens Iran with a "devastating strike" and reveals a message to it
America threatened Iran today, Thursday, August 8, 2024, with a "strike and devastating consequences" if it launched a major attack against Israel, in revenge for the assassination of former political bureau chief Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran at the end of last month.
The Wall Street Journal quoted an American official as saying, "We warned Iran that it could suffer a devastating blow if it launched a major attack on Israel."
"We sent a message to Iran that there is a risk of escalation if it launches a major retaliatory attack," the US official added.
He said, "Our message to Tehran did not include a threat to carry out an American strike against targets in Iran," stressing that "they warned Iran of consequences for its economy and the stability of its government if it launched a major attack."
For its part, the US State Department announced that "escalating the conflict could harm the Iranian economy," adding, "We continue to make clear to Iran that it should not escalate the conflict."
The US State Department stated that the US administration "does not communicate directly with Hezbollah, but we have partners in the region who are talking to the party."
The world, the countries of the region, and Israel are awaiting the Iranian military response to the assassination of the former head of the political bureau, Ismail Haniyeh, at his residence in Tehran on July 31, a day after the inauguration of the new Iranian president.
In the latest Iranian threats, Iran's acting Foreign Minister Ali Bagheri told France Presse today, "Our response to Haniyeh's assassination will be costly for Israel, but it will be in the interest of the region's security," stressing that "Israel is not in a position to wage war against Iran." link

Tishwash: Parliamentary Committee: Consultative meetings to amend the Investment Law
A member of the Parliamentary Investment Committee confirmed, on Friday, that consultative meetings will be held to amend the investment law in the country.
Committee member Asaad Al-Bazouni told {Al-Furat News} agency that “ the parliamentary investment committee is working on amending the investment law, especially with regard to industrial investment, and discussing its paragraphs through large advisory sessions, especially since Iraq is now heading towards the private investment sector, so there is a need for the law to be suitable for the Iraqi environment and for investors from other countries.”
Al-Bazouni pointed out that "work is underway on the law because it is of great importance in the field of investment, especially since Iraq needs investment because Iraq relies on oil and other simple resources," indicating that "by activating investment and the private sector, there will be other doors for Iraq's income. The budget now has a large deficit and the decline in oil prices is declining and putting us in a big problem, especially since the budget was calculated on the basis of $60 per barrel."
He added, "Reliance on oil resources causes us major problems, and we must rely on more than one resource. Iraq is capable in its industry, agriculture, investment, and lands, and we need to provide a safe and suitable environment for economists, foreign investors, and major international companies .

Tishwash: Parliamentary Finance: Political and economic reasons prevent Iraq from opening foreign currency channels
The Parliamentary Finance Committee confirmed, today, Friday (August 9, 2024), that there are political and economic reasons preventing Iraq from opening channels for foreign currencies other than the dollar.
Committee member Jamal Kojer said in an interview with Baghdad Today, "Iraq's failure to open channels for foreign currencies other than the dollar is certainly due to political and economic reasons and internal and external factors."
Kocher explained that "opening a window for foreign currencies is done through the presence of tourism, various foreign investments, and foreign industry inside Iraq, and until now the security environment and the political environment are not conducive to providing such an atmosphere, and for this reason there is no window for foreign currencies, and therefore the matter is limited only to dealing in dollars."
It is noteworthy that the Central Bank of Iraq decided on July 4, 2024, to start selling dollars to travelers, exclusively through corporate and banking outlets at international airports.
Meanwhile, the Central Bank decided to grant category “AB” exchange companies the ability to record internal and external remittance activities via the FITR platform. link

Tishwash: Revealing the ministries that constitute 80% of the value of salaries in Iraq
Today, Thursday, August 8, 2024, the head of the "Iraq the Future" Foundation for Economic Studies and Consultations, Manar Al-Obaidi, revealed the ministries that constitute 80% of the value of salaries in Iraq.
Al-Obaidi said in a post on Facebook, followed by Sumaria News, that the ministries that constitute 80% of the value of salaries are: the Ministry of Interior 14 trillion dinars annually, the Ministry of Education 10 trillion dinars annually, the Ministry of Defense 8 trillion dinars annually, the Council of Ministers and all the bodies under it 6 trillion dinars annually, in addition to the Ministry of Health 5.6 trillion dinars annually, and higher education 2.6 trillion dinars annually, in addition to the Council of Representatives 500 billion dinars annually.
He added that most ministries witnessed annual growth in their salaries during 2024 and 2023, noting that some ministries, such as electricity, oil, industry and communications, have mostly self-financed directorates, so their salary schedules do not appear in the government's operating expenses. link

Zimbabwe Approves Roadmap to Replace US Dollar with Gold-Backed Currency
August 7, 2024
HARARE– Zimbabwe’s cabinet has approved a comprehensive plan to transition from the US dollar to the country’s gold-backed currency, the Zimbabwe Gold (ZiG), in economic transactions.
The roadmap for this shift will be detailed by Finance Minister Mthuli Ncube.
“On modalities to operationalize the ZiG currency as legal tender for use in the economy, a de-dollarization roadmap is now in place,” Information Minister Jenfan Muswere announced at a post-cabinet briefing in Harare on Tuesday.
He mentioned that the timeline for implementation would be presented by Minister Ncube but did not specify when this announcement would occur. The Treasury has not provided immediate comments on the matter.
For the past 15 years, Zimbabwe has heavily relied on the US dollar, which currently constitutes about 70% of all economic transactions, according to central bank data. When the gold-backed ZiG was launched in April, the dollar was used in 85% of transactions.
President Emmerson Mnangagwa has indicated that the ZiG might become the sole currency by 2026, ahead of the initial target year of 2030, a move that has garnered support from the banking sector.
In the interim, authorities are planning to increase penalties for those involved in “unjust price hikes, manipulation of the ZiG currency, smuggling, and all forms of unfair trade practices” to encourage the adoption of the ZiG, Muswere stated. The fines will be raised from a minimum of $200 to a maximum of $5,000 or the equivalent in ZiG.

The United States Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) announced that a whistleblower who assisted the financial regulator in an enforcement action “connected to digital asset markets” would receive a $1 million reward.
In an Aug. 8 notice, the CFTC said it had brought an enforcement action against a firm connected to the digital asset space based on “information about improper trading” provided by an unnamed whistleblower. The regulator did not suggest which crypto firm it was referring to.
“Identifying unlawful conduct in the digital asset marketplace is a major priority for the CFTC, especially as everyday Americans are increasingly victimized by digital asset scams,” said CFTC enforcement director Ian McGinley. “During the last fiscal year, digital asset cases accounted for almost 50% of the CFTC’s docket, and the majority of whistleblower tips that year were related to digital assets.”

US lawmakers introduce legislation to expand Secret Service authority in battling crypto crimes
The bill aims to address the urgent need for robust measures against the complex landscape of digital asset crimes.
A new bill introduced in the Senate seeks to strengthen the US Secret Service’s authority to investigate crimes involving crypto.
The bipartisan effort, led by Senator Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV) and Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA), aims to combat transnational cybercriminal activities, including unlicensed money-transmitting businesses, structured transactions, and fraud against financial institutions.
The bill aims to address the urgent need for robust measures against the complex landscape of digital asset crimes. The lawmakers said the legislation will empower the Secret Service to act decisively against these threats, ensuring the safety and security of the financial system.
Expanding authority
The proposed legislation aims to expand the Secret Service’s investigative authority, granting it increased jurisdiction to address crimes involving digital assets, including fraud, money laundering, and illegal money-transmitting businesses.
This expansion will equip the agency with the necessary tools to tackle the evolving nature of cybercriminal activities. According to Grassley:
“Cybercriminals are becoming more innovative and elusive. By enhancing the Secret Service’s authority, we can better protect Americans from financial fraud and other cyber-related crimes.”
The bill encourages enhanced collaboration between the Secret Service and other federal agencies, such as the Department of Justice and the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN).

Thiel-backed One Trading secures license from Dutch regulator for perpetual futures
Crypto exchange One Trading has been granted an Organized Trading Facility license by the Dutch financial regulator to bring crypto futures onshore in the European Union.
One Trading, a crypto trading platform incubated by Bitpanda, has secured a license from the "Dutch Financial Markets Authority", becoming the only perpetual futures trading venue in the European Union.
The so-called Organized Trading Facility license positions the Netherlands-headquartered crypto exchange as the first cash-settled perpetuals platform in Europe, including the U.K., the press release reads. One Trading founder Joshua Barraclough says the license is part of the company’s mission to enable all customer types “to go long or short on any asset, use any asset as collateral, settle everything instantly, and perpetually roll contracts.”“With this license, we are well positioned to introduce new regulated products and offer institutional-grade solutions to all customer types starting with BTC and ETH products where no onshore E.U. regulated venue currently exists.”
Joshua Barraclough
One Trading emerged as an independent entity from Bitpanda Pro, a unit of the Austrian exchange catering to institutional crypto traders. In 2023, the exchange raised €30 million in a Series A round led by Peter Thiel’s Valar Venture with participation from other investors, including MiddleGame Ventures, Speedinvest, Keyrock, and Wintermute Ventures. In addition to the OTF license, One Trading also holds a virtual asset service provider license from the Italian regulator.

Banks and Their Tech Suppliers Face More IT Scrutiny in Europe
Banks and their IT providers will soon face tougher scrutiny in the European Union (EU).
That’s because of the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), which passed last year but isn’t set to be enforced until January of 2025. A report Thursday (Aug. 8) by CNBC examines the implications of the law, particularly in the wake of last month’s CrowdStrike outage.
DORA requires banks to carry out strict IT risk management, digital operational resilience testing, information and intelligence sharing on cyber threats and vulnerabilities, along with taking measures to manage third-party risks.
In addition, the report notes, companies will have to assess their “concentration risk” in relation to outsourcing critical operational functions to third-party companies.
These IT providers often provide “critical digital services to customers,” Joe Vaccaro, general manager of Cisco-owned internet quality monitoring company ThousandEyes, told CNBC.
“These third-party providers must now be part of the testing and reporting process, meaning financial services companies need to adopt solutions that help them uncover and map these sometimes hidden dependencies with providers,” said Vaccaro.
Lenders will also have to “expand their ability to assure the delivery and performance of digital experiences across not just the infrastructure they own, but also the one they don’t,” he added.
As the report notes, DORA aims to help banks escape incidents like the massive IT outage last month when a software update glitch at cybersecurity provider CrowdStrike caused Microsoft Windows systems to crash at airports, hospitals and financial services companies.
Weeks later, the fallout from the outage continues, with Delta Air Lines — which canceled more than 5,000 flights following the disruption and says it stands to lose $500 million — threatening legal action against CrowdStrike.
CrowdStrike struck back against the airline’s claims on Sunday (Aug. 4), arguing that while it accepts responsibility for the outage, it does not accept responsibility for Delta’s IT decisions, noting that “Delta’s competitors, facing similar challenges, all restored operations much faster.”
As PYMNTS wrote earlier this week, the incident underlines the importance of third-party vendors like cloud service providers and IT companies in maintaining resilient infrastructure.

Global Currency Reset: (Opinions/Rumors)
Thurs. 8 Aug. 2024 Bruce:
We were big on today and we did have some things that got started like BH’s paid out of Reno and lots of flights in and out – 3 per hour.
Nothing on CMKX yet – but be patient and hasn’t happened for everybody yet.
Over 1500 Farm Claims have been paid out and a good thing. Three specific people we know one was paid all different sums for Farm Claims.
Prosperity Packages: We confirmed they had the meeting last Saturday and decided to use hand to hand delivery for those payments. Now I hope they will call before they show up and it’s a pretty sizeable check and also the people that will be doing the deliveries will be National Guard – two coming to the door. Those deliveries start tonight Thurs. 8 Aug. or tomorrow morning Fri. 9 Aug.
We know that today RC staff went in at noon – but didn’t get the Green Light to send out to the staff and principals in all of those centers. So we still don’t have that happening yet – but could happen tomorrow Fri. 9 Aug. or Saturday 10 Aug.
The Latest this evening was that we would get notification to set appointments for Tier 4B and Tier 4A Saturday morning by noon 10 Aug.
Exchanges could also occur on Sat. 10 Aug.
Redemption Centers would be open on Sat. 10 Aug. to do our exchanges for currency and bonds.
The ZIM rate is extremely high – Dinar and also Dong but we don’t have Dong rate yet.
On Thurs. 8 Aug. all 19 new rates were flashing really fast on the bank screens and will be solid by tomorrow Fri. 9 Aug. or Saturday 10 Aug.
The rates are trading on Forex till Sunday 11 Aug. at 5pm.
Everything is moving behind the scenes but I don’t have anything on the political front.
We are looking at getting this well underway for us but we don’t know the actual start rate of Nesara and Gesara – but we think it might just come out and not be announced.
Our currency will be asset backed with the new Gold backed dollar and the old fiat currency will go away – but don’t save the new because eventually it will also still be useless at some point in time and New USN United States New notes.
Pay attention between now and the weekend for those emails. The latest info took Friday out and put Saturday 10 Aug. in play.

Thurs. 8 Aug. 2024 Wolverine:
Good Intel from Bruce today is what I told you yesterday. It has commenced. Tier 4B should comenmcé any time now.
I’m hoping to get the green light tomorrow Fri. 9 Aug. and I’ll know when I have to fly off. When that happens you won’t hear from me ever again until the Get Together. My job will be done.
OBTW in regards to MarkZ it was no offence to Mark as I do respect him and the work he has done throughout the years but I can categorically say what Mark said this morning was BS. He probably being cautious or he’s being told to be quiet.

Thurs. 8 Aug. 2024 American Media Group, Wolverine:
Liquidity Release and Notifications Have Begun!
At exactly 3:00 PM PDT (on Wed. 7 Aug. 2024), our trusted military intelligence contact confirmed that the long-awaited liquidity release and notifications for tiers and lower categories, including 4B, has officially begun. This monumental event will unfold over the next 72 hours, bringing significant financial changes and opportunities for those involved. Stay tuned as we delve into the details and implications of this groundbreaking launch.
The Liquidity Release, An Overview: At the heart of today’s explosive news is the start of the liquidity release. This process is crucial to distributing funds across various financial tiers and categories, including the highly anticipated Tier 4B. For months, anticipation and speculation have surrounded this event, and now it’s finally happening.
Our military intelligence contact, who has been a trusted source of information, indicated that everything was set in motion at 3:00 PM PDT (on Wed. 7 Aug.). Shotgun issuance is expected to distribute funds and notifications within the next 72 hours. This swift and decisive action is designed to ensure a smooth and efficient distribution of financial resources to those who have been patiently waiting.
Restrictions and Happiness What to Expect: Although our contact was not at liberty to discuss specific limits and limitations, he assured us that the outcome will be overwhelmingly positive. Details will be revealed during the appointments, but preliminary information suggests that everyone will be very pleased with the rates.
One of the highlights is the 90-day advance of ZIM. Those holding ZIM bonds will receive a $500 million advance until structured payments begin. This important advance provides immediate liquidity and demonstrates the financial system’s commitment to ensuring that participants have access to substantial resources quickly.
Immediate access to non-ZIM FX proceeds: In addition to the ZIM advance, all non-ZIM FX proceeds will be immediately accessible. This means that participants can begin using their funds without delay. For those who choose to place their funds under a structured payment program (SPP), there will be an advance of up to $250 million until the first SPP payment is made. This structured approach ensures that funds are managed effectively while also providing immediate liquidity to recipients.
The launch is done – a week late but finally here. Today, August 7th, marks an important milestone. Although the launch happened a week later than initially promised, it is crucial to focus on the fact that it actually happened. The reasons for the delay are still unclear, but what matters now is the start of distributions.
These distributions are scheduled to begin next week, after August 10th, setting the stage for significant financial activities and opportunities.
Preparing for the change. With the launch already underway, it is time to prepare for the upcoming changes. The next few days will be crucial as we understand the change and begin to set up preliminary structures to create corporate bonds. This preparation phase is vital to ensure that we can smoothly transition to the full funding cycle.
Mid-September is anticipated to be a period of substantial activity and significant financial movements are expected. Those who are aware and prepared will not be caught off guard by the big booms expected in the coming weeks.
Stay safe and focused. In these transformative times, it is essential to stay safe, focused, and vigilant. The changes taking place will have far-reaching implications and being prepared is key. Watching and praying, as our contact advises, will help to stay focused and prepared.
The Road Ahead: Big News in the Days and Weeks Ahead The news of the shotgun release is just the beginning. The coming days and weeks promise to be filled with important developments and opportunities. Those involved at the financial levels and tiers will need to stay informed and prepared to act as the situation evolves.
Understanding Shotgun Liquidity Release: What is Shotgun Release? The term “instant release” refers to a rapid and simultaneous distribution of funds across multiple financial levels and tiers. This method ensures that all participants receive their allocations promptly, minimizing delays and maximizing efficiency. This strategy is particularly important in scenarios where large sums of money need to be distributed quickly to a wide group of recipients.
Why Now? The timing of this release is critical. The global financial landscape is undergoing significant changes and the release of these funds is a key part of a broader strategy to stabilize and stimulate economic activity. By injecting liquidity into the market, the aim is to encourage growth, provide immediate financial relief and lay the groundwork for sustained economic development.
Mid-September is predicted to be a period of substantial activity and significant financial movements are expected. Those who are aware and prepared will not be caught off guard by the major booms expected in the coming weeks.
Stay safe and focused. In these transformative times, it is essential to stay safe, focused and vigilant. The changes taking place will have far-reaching implications and being prepared is key. Watching and praying, as our contact advises, will help to maintain focus and readiness.
The road ahead: Big news in the days and weeks ahead. The news of the shotgun launch is just the beginning. The coming days and weeks promise to be filled with important developments and opportunities. Those involved at the financial levels and levels will need to stay informed and prepared to act as the situation evolves.

Economist Jim Rickards Highlights Gold's Opportunity During Market Meltdowns
"Gold is being profiled as a relevant investment option in economic uncertainty and market instability times. Jim Rickards, a U.S. economist and best-selling author of books like “Currency Wars” and an opinion contributor to several newspapers and publications including The New York Times and The Washington Post, has referred to the investment opportunity that gold presents during acute market setbacks."
"In social media, Rickards reinforced its solid opinion of gold as a hedge against market instability, predicting the price movement of the precious metal during these events.
"Rickards says, "In a stock market meltdown, gold goes down due to selling by weak hands who need cash for margin calls. The strong hands take a beat, wait for a bottom. Then they jump in with both feet because they know it’s way up from there."
"Rickards has been analyzing gold’s position in today’s economy, stating that the metal might be used in case of a global currency meltdown to re-establish the gold standard, with many countries, including the U.S., purchasing gold to support the value of their currency."

"According to the World Gold Council, demand is expected to maintain the next year supported by central bank gold purchases for portfolio diversification and protection purposes."

BREAKING: Victory for Ripple as XRP Is Not a Security in the US; $125M Fine for the Truth
Ripple’s decisive victory over the SEC has officially ruled XRP a non-security.
Judge Torres reduced the SEC’s demanded fine from $2 billion to $125 million.
Ripple has exciting news following its recent victory over the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). XRP has been officially classified as a non-security, a designation that was highly disputed during Ripple’s litigation against the Commission.
Court Significantly Reduces SEC Penalties for Ripple’s Institutional XRP Sales
In addition, as Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse noted in his most recent tweet, the court has reduced the SEC’s penalties for institutional XRP sales that violate federal securities laws.
"The SEC asked for $2B, and the Court reduced their demand by ~94% recognizing that they had overplayed their hand. We respect the Court’s decision and have clarity to continue growing our company.
This is a victory for Ripple, the industry and the rule of law. The SEC’s headwinds against the whole of the XRP community are gone."
Judge Torres of the Southern District of New York levied the penalties after concluding that Ripple’s 1,278 institutional sales transactions breached securities regulations.
Previously, Judge Torres decided in July 2023 that Ripple violated federal securities laws by selling XRP directly to institutional clients. However, automated sales of XRP to retail clients through exchanges did not violate securities regulations.
Recently, the SEC failed to appeal a portion of the order that excused Ripple from securities law violations in programmatic sales.
Furthermore, Judge Torres has forbidden Ripple from future violations of federal securities laws, signaling that any violations will necessitate the issue of a court order. Ripple must file a registration statement if it intends to sell securities in the future.
Interestingly, Ripple’s convincing triumph has generated a surge in demand for XRP. At the time of writing, XRP was up 17.88% over the last 24 hours to $0.6055. Its daily trade volume has risen more than 200% to $5.05 billion. The price of XRP has quickly risen to pass crucial levels, $0.50 and $0.60.

Solana ETF Approved by Brazilian SEC
Following its approval by the Brazilian regulator, the ETF is in a pre-operational phase, awaiting approval by Brazilian stock exchange B3.
Brazil's Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM) has approved a spot Solana exchange-traded fund (ETF).
According to local business publication exame, the ETF, created by Brazilian asset manager QR Asset and operated by fund administrator Vortx, is in a pre-operational phase, pending approval by Brazilian stock exchange B3.
The ETF will reference the CME CF Solana Dollar Reference Rate, created by CF Benchmarks and the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME).
Speaking to exame, QR Asset manager and chief investment officer Theodoro Fleury described the firm as a "global pioneer in this segment, consolidating Brazil's position as a leading market for regulated investments in crypto assets."
Solana ETFs around the world
With the CVM's approval, Brazil has outpaced the U.S. in the race to bring a spot Solana ETF to market. Following the surprise approval of multiple U.S. spot Ethereum ETFs, firms including VanEck and 21Shares have filed S-1 registration forms with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in the hope of securing approval.
In May, British bank Standard Chartered predicted in a research note that Solana and XRP ETFs are on the horizon, "albeit this is likely a 2025 story not a 2024 one."
Last month, VanEck's head of digital assets predicted that approval of a U.S. Solana ETF hinges on the outcome of the U.S. presidential election, dubbing the lack of a regulated futures market for Solana a "Psyop" by SEC chair Gary Gensler.
However, asset manager BlackRock has sat out the race, taking a skeptical position and predicting that "it will be a while before we see anything else" beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs.
Meanwhile, to the north, investment fund manager 3iQ has filed for a Solana ETF in Canada, aiming to be the first to market in North America. Interestingly, 3iQ has said from the outset that the fund would stake the SOL it buys to back shares. “The Solana Fund offers easy exposure to SOL without technical complexity,” the company wrote at the time. “As part of our investment strategy, the Solana Fund will stake SOL to earn rewards.”

BRICS: Russia Officially Legalizes Bitcoin and Crypto Mining
"In another important sign of BRICS development in digital currencies, Russia has officially legalized Bitcoin and crypto mining in the country. Indeed, Moscow’s president, Vladimir Putin signed a law Thursday that legalizes the cryptocurrency process to specified persons."
The legislation will only allow “legal entities and individual entrepreneurs included in a register,” to mine crypto, Russian state media reports. However, it also legalizes mining for any individuals who “do not exceed the energy consumption limits,” proposed by the government.
"The past several months have seen BRICS embrace digital assets in a massive way. The group is reportedly considering the creation of a native currency using blockchain technology. It could be set to use these digital assets as a way to move further from the US dollar. Recent legal actions taken by one of its leading nations certainly support that assertion."
"As BRICS develops its digital currency infrastructure, Russia has officially legalized Bitcoin and crypto mining. The law will reportedly allow cryptocurrencies to be traded on native blockchain platforms. Moreover, it will go into effect in just ten days."
"This isn’t the first pro-crypto law Russia has passed this year. In late July, the country moved to allow crypto payments in international trade. The decision was made to combat Western sanctions."

Tishwash: Parliamentary Integrity Committee prepares to question the Governor of the Central Bank of Iraq
Member of the Parliamentary Integrity Committee, Hadi Al-Salami, revealed on Thursday that his committee has been following up for more than a year on the file of ending the assignment of the Governor of the Central Bank, Ali Al-Alaq, from his position.
Al-Salami explained to Shafaq News Agency that the committee addressed the Prime Minister several times to pressure him to end Al-Alaq's assignment, due to the existence of many violations against him.
He added that the government program announced by the Prime Minister when forming the government includes the necessity of ending the management of positions by proxy after six months of forming the government, noting that Al-Alaq is still managing the position by proxy without any action to cancel his assignment so far.
Al-Salami pointed out that there are many files and violations related to the Central Bank, which have been referred to the Integrity Commission and the Public Prosecution, indicating that these violations include issues related to the lack of control over the exchange rate in the market, in addition to millions of dollars and interest received by Arab and foreign banks, including Jordanian banks.
He revealed that the Acting Speaker of the House of Representatives approved the request to host the Governor of the Central Bank in the upcoming sessions, noting that there are many questions that will be put to the Governor during the hosting session.
In contrast, the Governor of the Central Bank of Iraq, Ali Mohsen Al-Alaq, told the official Iraqi News Agency that meetings will be held with the Federal Reserve and the US Treasury Department at the end of this August to review aspects related to foreign transfer operations and discuss the sanctions imposed on some banks.
Al-Alaq confirms the success of the Central Bank in leading the steps related to foreign transfers and selling the dollar. link

The key strategies behind Zimbabwe’s transition to the gold-backed ZiG currency, de-dollarization and what it means for the future.

Inside Zimbabwe’s New Plan to Replace US Dollar with Gold
On August 7, 2024 By Awake-In-3D
The key strategies behind Zimbabwe’s transition to the gold-backed ZiG currency, de-dollarization and what it means for the future.
What This Means in Simple Terms
Zimbabwe is trying to stop using US dollars and start using a new gold-backed currency called ZiG. The government has made a plan for this change, but it’s not easy.
The ZiG is doing well so far, staying stable against other currencies. More people are using it, but many are still unsure because past local currencies didn’t work out. The government is working hard to make sure people trust and use the ZiG.
This change is part of Zimbabwe’s effort to control its own economy better and reduce dependence on the US dollar. The success of this plan will depend on continued government support and building public trust in the new currency.
The Government’s Dedollarization Roadmap
Zimbabwe’s cabinet recently approved a roadmap to phase out the US dollar in favor of the ZiG.
Information Minister Jenfan Muswere announced that a plan to operationalize the ZiG as legal tender is now in place, marking a significant step toward economic independence.
This transition is supported by penalties for unjust price hikes and manipulation, ranging from $200 to $5,000, aimed at reinforcing the currency’s use.
Stability of the ZiG Amid Economic Challenges
Since its launch in April 2024, the ZiG has maintained its stability against major currencies, including the US dollar.
Trading at 13.76 against the US dollar, the ZiG demonstrates resilience despite Zimbabwe’s complex economic environment.
The currency’s gold backing, initially set at $100 million and 2.5 tons of gold, has grown to over $375 million, reinforcing its value.
The US dollar, meanwhile, has seen fluctuations, with the dollar index (DXY) experiencing significant drops due to economic uncertainties in the US.
Growing Usage and Trust Issues
The use of the ZiG has more than doubled since its introduction, now accounting for about 30% of all transactions in Zimbabwe.
However, widespread acceptance remains a challenge. Many Zimbabweans, having experienced the failure of previous local currencies, are cautious. The government is addressing these concerns by increasing penalties for price manipulation and unfair trade practices to bolster confidence in the ZiG.
Despite these efforts, the transition is slow as the US dollar still dominates the market.
Economic Impacts and Future Prospects
Zimbabwe’s move to the ZiG aims to achieve economic sovereignty, but the country faces significant hurdles.
The ongoing El-Nino-induced drought has strained resources, and key exports like tobacco and platinum have seen declining prices. Despite these challenges, the government’s commitment to the ZiG demonstrates a clear, long-term vision for economic stability.
The ability of the ZiG to maintain its value will depend on the government’s continued support and effective management of the currency.

Tishwash: Al-Qurayshi: Political and economic interests are behind the American forces remaining in Iraq
State of Law coalition member Saad al-Quraishi confirmed that political and economic interests are behind the continued presence of American forces inside Iraq.
Al-Quraishi told Al-Maalouma, “Political and economic interests may be an excuse used by some parties to keep American forces inside Iraq and not take a decisive decision to leave the country.”
He added, "Iraq cannot currently remove American forces from its territory due to the lack of political will."
He stated that "Iraq will not benefit at all from the presence of American forces on its territory, as Washington is the first party to benefit from the presence of its forces inside Iraq to ensure its dominance over the region."
He pointed out that “the American presence in Iraq was imposed by Washington and not at an Iraqi request.” link

Tishwash: Saleh: There is no problem with liquidity at all, and what happened in the American markets requires caution.
The financial and economic advisor to the Prime Minister, Mazhar Muhammad Salih, denied the existence of a problem with the cash liquidity in the Iraqi currency.
Saleh said in a press statement, "There is no problem with liquidity at all because it is covered by foreign currency," indicating that "the mechanism for obtaining cash liquidity is that oil sales are converted into US dollars, and when the government needs the dinar for internal exchange, it exchanges oil sales for dollars and goes to the cash issuing bank, which is the central bank, to give it the currency."
He pointed out that "the Central Bank, in order to maintain market stability, sells foreign currency to the market through a currency sale window and auction, to withdraw liquidity again and then repeat it again to achieve natural growth in the issued currency."
Regarding the size of the monetary mass, Saleh explained that “there was an increase in liquidity during the year, as the issued currency became around 100 trillion dinars, after it was 80 trillion dinars,” stressing that “these booms do not have an impact as long as they are covered by foreign currency.”
The Prime Minister's financial advisor believes that economic circles around the world were surprised by the sharp fluctuations and declines in the US stock market amid a wave of panic over fears of a possible recession in the world's largest economy, and that "these declines were based on a combination of local and global economic factors that led to a weakening of investor confidence in the performance of the US economy. If the situation continues for six consecutive months, the recession will turn into a major depression that will hit all economies around the world."
Saleh pointed out that “the US Energy Information Administration had previously announced that it expected average prices to reach about $89 per barrel for the rest of 2024, but there is a gradual decline in global oil prices, which has begun to coincide with the decline in the value of financial assets in the US markets, especially the decline in the benchmark oil (Brent crude), which ranges around $76 per barrel for futures contracts after reaching nearly $88 per barrel last June, which requires more caution and economic precaution.” link

Tishwash: Al-Alaq: The financial situation in Iraq is going according to plan
The Governor of the Central Bank, Ali Al-Alaq, confirmed the stability of the financial situation in Iraq, and revealed new mechanisms to facilitate foreign trade, including a new mechanism for small traders’ transfers. He also pointed to the importance of the upcoming meeting in New York to resolve the problem of sanctioned banks, stressing the existence of a government move to strengthen the banking sector.
Financial situation in Iraq
Al-Alaq confirmed in an interview with the Iraqi News Agency (INA) that "the financial situation in Iraq is still proceeding according to what is planned in the state's general budget, despite external and local challenges." He explained that "there is high coordination between the Central Bank, the Prime Minister and the Ministry of Finance to ensure the stability and sustainability of the financial aspect."
He added: "We are working closely with the Ministry of Finance to implement the financial plan drawn up in the general budget, which ensures that the objectives, programs and needs are covered." He also pointed out that "the rotation of allocations for governorates and ministries is happening for the first time, which contributes to providing the necessary balances for their role."
Foreign trade
Al-Alaq stated that “the Central Bank is making a major shift in organizing foreign trade to achieve transparency in foreign transfer operations, starting from the transfer and reaching the final beneficiary.” He explained that “this process includes international auditing institutions to ensure that the information is in line with local and international standards.”
Al-Alaq pointed out that "the audit process used to be conducted later, but now the process does not proceed unless all conditions and documents are met." He stressed that "large and medium-sized importing companies have adopted this new system, which contributes to securing their imports with high fluidity."
Other international currencies
Al-Alaq said: “The Central Bank has opened channels for Chinese, Turkish, Indian and Emirati currencies, which represent a significant weight in foreign trade.” He added that “the suspension of these operations for a period was aimed at providing sufficient oversight of these operations, and that a new audit mechanism has been put in place by an international company.”
He explained that "commercial foreign transfer operations are now subject to review by the competent international company, to ensure the safety of the operations."
The difference between the market and the official price
Al-Alaq confirmed that "the Central Bank sells more than $250 million daily at the official price to cover foreign trade, which explains the absence of inflation or price increases." He explained that "the parallel market consists of illegal trade or trade escaping from the fundamental procedures."
Al-Alaq pointed out that "the view of the dollar price should focus on the Central Bank's sales at the official price to settle various needs."
low inflation
"The central bank's main goal is to maintain the general price level and limit inflation," Al-Alaq said. "Monetary policy has succeeded in controlling this aspect, as the level of inflation in Iraq is much lower compared to other countries," he added.
Cooperation with the US Treasury
Al-Alaq praised the cooperation with international organizations such as the International Monetary Fund, the Federal Reserve and the US Treasury, explaining that "there is great praise for the transformations, management and organization of the external transfer process in the Central Bank of Iraq."
Al-Alaq pointed out that "the Central Bank is working to create a direct relationship between the Iraqi bank and the correspondent without going through the Federal Bank, with the aim of facilitating transfer operations."
Upcoming meeting in New York
Al-Alaq announced that "meetings will be held with the Federal Reserve and the US Treasury Department at the end of August to review all aspects related to external transfer operations and discuss sanctions on some banks."
Lifting restrictions on banks
Al-Alaq stressed that "lifting restrictions on some banks is of interest to the Central Bank," noting that "the banking reform plan includes auditing previous operations and contracting with an international consulting firm to develop a future strategy for the banking sector."
Housing Initiative
Al-Alaq revealed "a government move to increase capital to support the housing sector through the Real Estate Bank and the Housing Fund." He added that "the Central Bank plays an exceptional role in bridging the housing financing deficit."
Al-Alaq explained that "the government will increase the capital of the Real Estate Bank and the Housing Fund to support the housing sector," stressing that "the Real Estate Bank will work to meet all requests to purchase housing units." link

There will be a EBS message sent over phones, TV and radio around the Globe saying that in the next five hours or so, everyone needed to be home for a global lockdown that would last 10 to 12 days.
NESARA will be announced to the world, which will show that EVERYTHING NEW is beginning.
Then through the EBS, they will show documentaries of everything that has happened to wake up the masses.
At the end of the 12 days, they will give out an 800 number for individuals to call to obtain an appointment to set up your Quantum money account on the new Starlink Satellite System.
There were 75 Deep State Banks that were seized and all assets and accounts closed. All the Cabal’s Central Banks have been taken over, with assets entered into the Quantum Financial System (QFS).
The QFS is run on Blockchain where nothing fraudulent can happen because everything is traceable. They can see where all money goes, which stops corruption in its tracks.
Apparently all people have a sum of money in an individual Quantum Financial Account.
The seized assets of the Cabal were moved to those Quantum Financial Accounts of The People. All monies in trust funds were moved to individual QFS accounts. All our bank accounts, savings accounts and retirement accounts were safe in the new Quantum System.
The only monies not reflected in individual Quantum Accounts were investments and shares on the Stock Market. All that will be gone! It is advised to get out of the Stock Market immediately.

Thurs, Fri. 8, 9 Aug. 2024: “I just saw something that really made me stop and say huh. Kevin O’Leary was being interviewed for his opinion on the economy and how bad it is being handled, he said just wait until August 8 and ninth. There is going to be a major Nexus August 8 and ninth, a major transformation of the world economy.

Information confirms that Paymasters are ready to disburse funds on receipt. Get ready everyone this is the week we’ve been waiting for. I just got another confirmation from a huge Whale that it is happening. Your friend, Wolverine
Remember I told you that the “delay” we have been through for the past 2+ years, is because it literally took this TIME to collapse the US Dollar, and introduce a new Gold/Silver backed currency, and implement GESARA.
Remember the Cabal controlled us because of the Central Banking system, including the Federal Reserve.
NOW…the TIME has FINALLY arrived on what we have been waiting for and working so hard for. There will still be bumps in the road, but remember easy was never the promise. VICTORY was.
Hold on patriots and buckle up, the movie is about to get REALLY GOOD!

The Shanghai Exchange Corporation and Russia are working on a BRICS payment system. Watch the water. …Goldilocks https://tass.com/economy/1824025#amp_tf=From%20%251%24s&aoh=17228107385705&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&share=https%3A%2F%2Ftass.com%2Feconomy%2F1824025 https://unitingtocombatntds.org/en/get-involved/events/brics-summit-2024/
This new International Digital Payment System is expected to be discussed at the BRICS summit on October 22nd through the 24th of 2024.
After discussions during the summit, Russia in cooperation with a Shanghai Exchange Corporation will begin the implementation process of moving the trading world into a new payment system. Remember, this is over 80% of trade that takes place around the world on the water, and it has the power to influence exchange rates.
Many countries are already beginning to join the BRICS Nations as trading partners utilizing a gold standard in trade to level the playing field. Other countries will be added as we go along.
This is expected to change the Global Financial system in a profound way especially in the area of currency valuations being traded locally instead of through the dollar as the World Reserve Asset.
From that point on, we can expect changes to begin processing themselves AS the BRICS Nations begin to mobilize their new payment system.
I am not calling an RV date at that time, but I will say that price pressures on new currencies being utilized on the market will begin to show signs of new movement.

Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY:
The US Treasury are saying to us they are active in our country and they're making sure the change that is coming will not be a massive flow straight into Iran...They are telling us on TV the time has come to hit the ground for this corruption.
Militia Man Iraq is still being able to function. They told us their 2023-24 budget was legal, has always been and they're moving forward with it...Even though we haven't seen an exchange rate change they can still function, which is fine...Now they're starting to do things that are getting their banks in order and we're seeing the results of that.

IQD Investment Saudi Iraq & US How It All Started
Edu Matrix: 8-8-2024
IQD Investment Saudi Iraq & US How It All Started - IQD Investment Saudi Iraq & U.S. The new IQD investment has a unique history. How Saudi, Iraq, and the U.S. play key roles in the NEW Iraqi Dinar Investment.
There is a crucial piece of the puzzle missing. The real reason the U.S. Administration created a campaign to invade Iraq the second time. Until we fully undersand the "real" reason, for the invasion, we have limited knowledge.
