Bankers Likely Secretly Buying Gold and Silver

Bankers Likely Secretly Buying Gold and Silver

Liberty and Finance:  10-29-2024

In the ever-evolving landscape of finance and economics, the conversation around sound money—a term most commonly associated with tangible commodities like gold and silver—continues to gain momentum. Recently, Dunagun Kaiser and Patrick Holland joined the informative platform Liberty and Finance to delve deeper into this crucial topic, exploring both its historical significance and its contemporary relevance within the United States.

The discussion begins with an exploration of sound money’s rich history. For centuries, civilizations around the world relied on precious metals as a basis for their currencies. The intrinsic value of gold and silver made them a reliable means of trade, instilling trust and stability in economic systems.

Dunagun noted that sound money encompasses not just a form of currency but a broader philosophy about financial integrity and wealth preservation.

Kaiser and Holland articulated how this philosophy stands in stark contrast to fiat currencies—government-issued money that lacks intrinsic value and is not backed by physical commodities. Fiat currencies are prone to inflation and devaluation, leading to economic instability for individuals and nations alike.

By returning to sound money principles, the duo argues that societies can reclaim economic trust and promote sustainable growth.

As the conversation shifted to the current state of the sound money movement in the U.S., Holland highlighted notable efforts spearheaded by various states, including Texas, Florida, and Missouri. These states have emerged as champions of sound money legislation, advocating for measures that recognize and promote the use of gold and silver as legal tender. Their proactive stance serves as a model for other states seeking to implement similar initiatives.

One crucial aspect of this movement is the recognition of the importance of local legislation in protecting and promoting sound money principles. Grassroots efforts and state-level initiatives have the potential to create significant shifts in national policy. Holland emphasized that while federal frameworks impose certain restrictions, empowered states can serve as laboratories for financial innovation and reform.

During the dialogue, the advantages of a gold standard were explored. By anchoring currency to a tangible asset, a gold standard ensures a more stable economic environment. Kaiser and Holland discussed how this system facilitates predictable, measured inflation rates, which can foster better long-term financial planning for individuals and businesses alike.

Furthermore, a return to a gold standard can curb excessive government spending and debt accumulation. When currencies are not tied to tangible assets, there’s a temptation for governments to print money in times of crisis, leading to a corrosive cycle of debt. A sound money approach reinforces fiscal discipline, promoting responsible governance and economic integrity.

The discussion also touched upon the global landscape, where a notable trend has emerged. Central banks around the world are increasingly accumulating gold. This behavior suggests a growing recognition of gold’s value as a hedge against economic uncertainty and inflation. Kaiser pointed out that as global economic conditions become more volatile, the demand for sound money principles may increase exponentially.

The implications of this trend could be profound; a resurgence of interest in gold could signal a shift in how financial markets operate. Countries are beginning to reconsider their monetary policies, reflecting a broader acknowledgment of the benefits of sound money—something that advocates like Kaiser and Holland find encouraging.

In conclusion, the Liberty and Finance discussion underscored the critical importance of grassroots movements in reclaiming financial sovereignty. By fostering state-level initiatives and encouraging local leadership, advocates of sound money can facilitate broader changes in how currency is perceived and utilized.

As individuals become more informed about the different forms of money and their implications, societies can start to demand change. The journey towards sound money is not just a policy shift but a cultural one—an awakening to the importance of financial integrity in building a resilient and prosperous society.

As Dunagun Kaiser and Patrick Holland demonstrated through their insights, the sound money movement is not just important for today, but vital for the economic futures we wish to create. It’s a call to arms for investors, consumers, and policymakers alike to become advocates for a monetary system rooted in value, reliability, and trust.

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

HBAR ADOPTION EXPANDS AS DUBAI LAUNCHES DIGITAL WILL SOLUTION ON HEDERA

▪️Unlike traditional wills that manage physical assets, the DIFC Courts have chosen Hedera for its reliability, security, speed, and trust, ensuring a transparent process.

▪️This initiative underscores Dubai’s strategic approach to establishing a sustainable digital asset infrastructure and regulatory framework.

The Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) announced its integration of Hedera’s Hashgraph technology which will power a new Digital Asset Will inheritance solution.

This initiative is distinct from the traditional FinTech focuses like tokenized assets and payments. Thus, it marks a unique application of distributed ledger technology (DLT) in estate planning, especially for digital asset inheritance.

Managing digital assets in inheritance is a new challenge, unlike conventional wills that distribute stocks, cash, and gold. As a result, the DIFC Courts have chosen Hedera’s technology for its reliability, security, speed, and, most importantly, trust. 

Moreover, the governing council of Hedera provides the DIFC and beneficiaries a complete peace of mind via a trusted, transparent process.

Some of the key features of Hedera like the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS), have played a crucial role in offering audit trails at every step along with accuracy. 

This helps to ensure the correct management of inheritances. For example, HCS’s real-time audit logs prevent mistakes in transferring assets, safeguarding beneficiaries from potential delays or errors.

The DIFC’s move highlights Dubai’s forward-thinking strategy in building sustainable digital asset infrastructure and regulation, setting a standard for digital asset planning. This collaboration is a win for both Hedera as a DLT leader and Dubai’s vision for long-term, responsible digital asset growth.

Key Developments in the Hedera Ecosystem
The Hedera ecosystem is currently seeing strong growth as several industry players are willing to transition to blockchain tech and prefer Hedera for its transparent governance and trust. 

Earlier this month, investment firm Canary Capital announced the launch of the first HBAR Trust in the United States, reported CNF. This fueled further speculation around the potential introduction of a Hedera-focused Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF).

The Canary HBAR Trust will provide safe access for investors to crypt+ocurrency HBAR while opening the gates for institutional participation in the crypto. Steven McClurg, CEO of Canary Capital, highlighted that the HBAR Trust is designed to provide U.S. institutional investors with new opportunities to tap into the growing demand for crypto-related products.

On the other hand, Prove AI recently launched its artificial intelligence product on the Hedera blockchain allowing businesses to securely manage their AI training data while ensuring compliance by using Hedera’s secure and scalable infrastructure.

Furthermore, Hedera will also provide governance solutions for businesses interacting with AI regulations and development, reported CNF.

In other news, Karate Combat, the world’s premier professional strike league, has announced the upcoming launch of its Layer-2 platform on the Hedera blockchain. Named “UP,” this Layer-2 blockchain and crypto-native software licensing platform is set to go live in Q1 2025, aiming to propel Web3 adoption across esports, sports, and entertainment sectors, reported CNF.

COINBASE BRINGS REAL-TIME DEPOSITS VIA DEBIT CARDS BY PARTNERING WITH VISA

Coinbase users can now fund their accounts in real-time with eligible Visa debit cards, thanks to a new integration with the Visa Direct network.

Coinbase users in the U.S. and Europe can now deposit funds to their accounts with an eligible Visa debit card, following a new partnership with Visa. In an Oct. 29 press release, Visa said the integration allows Coinbase customers to deposit funds in real-time, offering flexibility for those looking to respond quickly to crypto market movements.

The feature aims to streamline access to trading funds by reducing wait times traditionally associated with crypto funding. The Visa Direct network facilitates immediate deposits, enabling users to top up accounts or make crypto purchases almost instantly. Visa debit cardholders can also cash out to their bank accounts in real time, minimizing delays across all major transactions on the platform.

“Providing real-time account funding using Visa Direct and an eligible Visa debit card means that those Coinbase users with an eligible Visa debit card know that they can take advantage of trading opportunities day and night,” said Yanilsa Gonzalez Ore, head of Visa Direct, North America for Visa

This latest partnership marks another step in Visa’s expanding role in the crypto market, building on the company’s recent introduction of a blockchain platform for banks to manage fiat-backed tokens.

Earlier in October, Visa launched the Visa Tokenized Asset Platform, a network enabling financial institutions to mint, burn, and transfer fiat-backed tokens, including stablecoins. BBVA, the Spanish banking giant, became the platform’s first client, with plans to trial the technology on the public Ethereum blockchain starting in 2025.

Global Currency Reset:  (RUMORS)

Tues. 29 Oct. 2024 Charlie Ward: Breaking! Military Intel: EBS Training Complete, Countdown to the Great Currency Revaluation Begins!

The countdown to the Great Currency Revaluation (RV) has started! Prepare for this historic shift in global finances and power. Unprecedented opportunities and revelations await as the EBS (Emergency Broadcast System) stands ready to broadcast the truth, shaking the foundations of our world.

For centuries, the powerful elites have used financial systems to enslave the masses, but RV changes everything. Imagine currencies like the Iraqi Dinar, Vietnamese Dong, and Indonesian Rupiah rising to new levels, breaking the chains of the old financial order. This isn’t just another shift; it’s a total reset.

The RV Impact: A move to real wealth and freedom. Debt and fiat currency will crumble under NESARA and GESARA laws, opening doors for all. This isn’t a theoretical concept—military and global finance teams are primed to execute a financial revolution. As the old systems collapse, new financial structures based on quantum technologies will take their place, putting the power back into the hands of the people.

This global reawakening means freedom from debt slavery, control, and lies. As we approach this monumental change, stay informed and ready. Change is here, and it’s unstoppable. Are you prepared to witness history unfold?

Tishwash:  The Central Bank republishes controls for declaring funds and bringing them in or out of Iraq

Today, Tuesday (October 29, 2024), the Central Bank of Iraq republished the controls for declaring funds, while indicating that it allows the entry or exit of amounts less than $10,000.

The bank said, according to a statement received by "Baghdad Today", that "in order to reduce the risks of bringing in and out money across the Iraqi borders and exploiting this in money laundering or terrorist financing operations, and based on the Anti-Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing Law No. 39 of 2025, and the provisions of Controls No. 1 of 2029 (amended Controls No. 1 of 2017), the following must be adhered to:

1. It is permitted to bring in or take out amounts less than (10,000) dollars (ten thousand US dollars) or its equivalent in other currencies without declaring them.

2. It is permitted to bring in or take out amounts exceeding (10,000) dollars (ten thousand US dollars) to 20,000 dollars (twenty thousand US dollars) provided that they are declared, with the necessity of presenting evidence supporting the purpose of bringing in or taking out these amounts. In the event that supporting documents are not available, the traveler must submit a pledge to bring these documents after (30) days from the date of declaration.

3. It is prohibited to bring in or take out amounts exceeding (20,000) dollars (twenty thousand US dollars) or its equivalent in other currencies, and the process of bringing in or taking out these amounts shall be exclusively through financial institutions.

Tishwash:  The Dinar Under Siege: How Do Smuggling Mafias Strike the Cash Reserve?

Reports indicate a worrying increase in the activity of currency smuggling mafias in Iraq, which has raised widespread questions about the serious repercussions of this activity on the Iraqi economy.

Such operations that aim to transfer money abroad illegally lead to huge losses in the cash reserve and affect the state’s ability to finance basic needs, and contribute to the exacerbation of inflation and the deterioration of the value of the Iraqi dinar.

One economic analysis states that: “Currency smuggling operations weaken Iraq’s foreign exchange reserves, increasing the country’s inability to meet its basic import needs, and leading to a deterioration in the balance of payments. This illegal outflow of funds not only leads to weak domestic investment, but also creates an unstable economic environment, raising concerns among foreign and local investors alike.”

Another aspect of the negative effects of these operations appears in the financing of illegal activities such as drug trafficking and support for armed groups, indicating that currency smuggling is not only an economic issue, but a security problem that affects the stability of Iraq more deeply.

The various methods used to smuggle money include foreign imports that take place outside the official platform of the Central Bank, which is a violation of the laws and increases chaos in the market.

Reports indicate that some parties are deliberately seeking to weaken the national currency by raising the price of the dollar in an exaggerated manner, which raises questions about the possibility of internal parties colluding with smuggling networks to increase their profits at the expense of the national economy.

Expert Mohammed Al-Kubaisi explains that currency smuggling mafias exploit political and economic crises to increase their activities, taking advantage of weak government oversight and financial turmoil to achieve huge profits.

The problem seems to go beyond the economy to include deeper issues related to weak legislation and government control, which is prompting some analysts to call on the government to take strict measures, including imposing strict controls on financial transactions and setting policies that encourage local investment to limit the flow of money abroad.  link

Lilfish:  IMF Touts US Economy the Growth Engine of the World

WASHINGTON, Oct 22 (Reuters) - The U.S. economy will continue to provide most of the thrust for global growth through the balance of this year and in 2025, led by robust consumer spending that has held up through a wrenching bout of inflation and the high interest rates used to tame it, the International Monetary Fund said on Tuesday.

In its latest World Economic Outlook, the IMF raised its 2024 and 2025 economic growth forecasts for the U.S. - the only developed economy to see its outlook marked up for both years - and its chief economist said the "soft landing" sought by the Federal Reserve in which inflation eases without big damage to the job market had largely been achieved.

Emerging market powerhouses India and Brazil also stood out on the upside of the IMF forecasts, while it dialed back growth expectations for China for this year and left next year's forecast for the world's No. 2 economy at a below-trend 4.5%.

Still, it warned that risks abound from armed conflicts, potential new trade wars and the hangover from the tight monetary policy employed by the Fed and other central banks to rein in inflation.

"Today, the IMF reported that the United States is leading the advanced economies on growth for the second year in a row," Lael Brainard, the director of the White House's National Economic Council, said in a statement.

The IMF's latest World Economic Outlook said the shifts will leave 2024 global GDP growth unchanged from the 3.2% projected by the global lender in July, setting a lackluster tone for growth as world finance leaders gather in Washington this week for the IMF and World Bank annual meetings.

Global growth is projected to be 3.2% in 2025, one-tenth of a percentage point lower than forecast in July, while medium-term growth is expected to fade to a "mediocre" 3.1% in five years, well below its pre-pandemic trend, the report showed.

Nonetheless, the IMF's chief economist, Pierre-Olivier Gourinchas, said some countries, including the U.S., were showing resilience.

"The news on the U.S. is very good in a sense," Gourinchas said at a press conference in Washington. "The labor market picture remains one that is fairly robust, even though it has cooled off."

"I think the risks of a recession in the U.S. in the absence of a very sharp shock would be somewhat diminished," he said.

Although Gourinchas said it looked as if the global inflation battle had largely been won, he told Reuters in an interview there is a risk that monetary policy could "mechanically" become too tight without interest rate cuts in some countries as inflation subsides, weighing on growth and jobs.

CONSUMER STRENGTH

The IMF revised its 2024 U.S. growth forecast upward by two-tenths of a percentage point to 2.8% due largely to stronger-than-expected consumption fueled by rising wages and asset prices. The global lender also upgraded its 2025 U.S. growth outlook by three-tenths of a percentage point to 2.2%, slightly delaying a return to trend growth.

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

US TREASURY STRATEGY FOR FINANCIAL INCLUSION MENTIONS DIGITAL ASSETS

The United States Department of the Treasury has released its national strategy for financial inclusion, only including cryptocurrencies as a potential risk for consumers.

In an Oct. 29 notice, the US Treasury said its National Strategy for Financial Inclusion in the United States report resulted from a request from Congress and included recommendations to “advance consumer access to safe financial products and services and strengthen financial security.”

According to the department, one of its methods of financial inclusion was through research of a “series of publications on consumer activities and risks related to digital assets,” citing a September 2022 report.

According to the US Treasury, the national strategy recommended increasing access to “safe and affordable credit,” improving the inclusivity of financial services and products from the government, and “protecting consumers from illegal and predatory practices.”

National Economic Advisor Lael Brainard credited Vice President Kamala Harris with helping expand “access to capital, credit, and economic opportunity.”

The strategy by the government department suggested that it would not be considering cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin as a means of financial inclusion in the United States. 

Though many digital asset advocates recognize the potential risk of crypto investments, the technology has often been touted as a way to level the playing field for individuals who may not always have access to traditional banking.

US election could affect crypto policy in 2025
It’s unclear if Vice President Harris would consider this strategy if she were victorious over Republican Donald Trump in the US election in November. The Democratic candidate has suggested she would support the industry if elected but still expressed concerns over consumer protection.

During his administration, US President Joe Biden issued an executive order establishing a framework for digital assets and instructing government departments to study the ecosystem’s potential impact on consumer and investor protection, financial stability, financial inclusion, responsible innovation, the US’ financial leadership and combating illicit financial activity. 

The Treasury Department has been involved in developing policy recommendations for crypto in accordance with the order.

BIS DEBATES ENDING CROSS BORDER CBDC PROJECT MBRIDGE – REPORT

Yesterday Bloomberg reported that the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) is considering whether to shut down Project mBridge, the cross border CBDC payments platform developed in collaboration with the central banks of China, Hong Kong, Thailand and the UAE. In June Saudi Arabia joined at the same time as mBridge launched as a minimum viable product.

Bloomberg cited sources saying the topic was discussed at last week’s International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Bank meetings. A concern is Russia’s ongoing enthusiasm for developing a similar sounding BRICS Bridge.

At a Group of 30 event in Washington on Saturday, BIS general manager Agustín Carstens was quoted as saying “we cannot directly support any project for the BRICS because we cannot operate with countries that are subject to sanctions — I want to be very clear about that.” Both Russia and Iran are BRICS+ members.

mBridge’s design
mBridge enables commercial banks to make cross border payments via their central banks, using wholesale central bank digital currencies (wCBDCs). The design encourages direct local currency payments, sidestepping the need to use US dollars.

For cross border payments, banks often either use correspondent banks or keep bank accounts (nostro accounts) at the destination, which are expensive to maintain as they tie up capital.

Hence, there are pros and cons with the mBridge design. A key advantage is banks don’t need to keep nostro accounts at the destination or use correspondent banking, saving considerable money.

On the flip side, a key reason for using the US dollar as an intermediate currency is because almost all currencies have their optimal FX rates against the dollar. In other words, local currency payments involve less attractive FX rates, which is why they haven’t taken off in a big way.

There’s some simple math involved here. Currently, there are 180 currencies, each with their best rate against the dollar. That’s 180 currency pairs, with relatively strong supply and demand. So it’s cheaper to go from Thai baht to USD to renminbi, than directly from baht to renminbi.

That’s because the direct local currency route for 180 currencies translates to 16,110 currency pairs. If you spread the supply and demand across 16,110 pairs rather than 180, these are far more thinly traded so you no longer get good FX rates.

An obvious path is to choose an intermediate currency different from the US dollar. Notably, BRICS countries don’t seem keen on that. This FX cost issue is critical to mBridge’s viability, because FX makes up the largest proportion of cross border payment costs, by far. State-owned Chinese companies might feel obliged to use local currencies, but companies in other economies will demand the cheapest path.

China’s role in mBridge
China chairs the mBridge technical working group and developed some proprietary components, including a Chinese blockchain consensus mechanism. The Bloomberg piece was critical about allowing China such an important role in the project. 

China’s role is even greater because Hong Kong is involved and the UAE’s central bank representative spent a large part of his career at the Hong Kong Monetary Authority. So three out of the four central banks have strong Chinese ties. 

However, the project started as a joint Hong Kong – Thailand initiative, so its location at the Hong Kong BIS Innovation Hub and the involvement of China were natural paths.

However, it’s not surprising the topic is being debated. Ledger Insights featured an opinion piece exploring the BIS dilemma in January. It concluded that if mBridge proves viable, then the central banks are likely to proceed with or without the BIS. Although it depends on their contracts with the BIS.

Since the January post, the BIS has launched Project Agorá, another cross border CBDC project, but one that supports correspondent banking. Unlike mBridge which has two BRICS members in China and the UAE, no BRICS members are involved in Agorá.

At SIBOS last week, two pieces of mBridge news reinforced the existence of this BIS debate around its future. Firstly, there was a surprising discussion about potentially integrating with Swift and even possibly including the dollar in future.

The second piece of news was the plan to open source the mBridge software. On the one hand, this might help to alleviate concerns about the dependence on China. However, it also makes it far easier for sanctioned countries to spin up a version of their own, without involving the BIS.

Should the BIS remain engaged?
In our January opinion piece, we concluded that IF mBridge proves viable, the central banks are likely to continue, with or without the BIS. With open source software, that’s even more probable. However, with the BIS involved, sanctioned countries will be prevented from engaging.

Payments are all about network effects. So if many more countries join mBridge rather than BRICS Bridge, that will support the effectiveness of sanctions and prevent mBridge morphing into BRICS Bridge. It brings the issue into focus: is mBridge about new payment efficiencies, or is it about an alternative to the status quo with the US dollar at the core?

At SIBOS, the former Governor of the People’s Bank of China, Zhou Xiaochuan, noted that “If the U.S. government would like to use the U.S. dollar as a sanction tool, it may reduce the feasibility of other countries to use the U.S. dollar.” 

No matter one’s view on Russia or Iran, Governor Zhou’s statement is factual. Whether it’s mBridge or something entirely different, logically there will be strategies to circumvent using the dollar. We’ve reported on Russia iterating through several different paths, many involving crypto or DLT.

However, in the case of mBridge, the genie is already out of the bottle. It’s likely better for the BIS to engage than not.

Flood Insurance Isn't Perfect But You Should Probably Buy It Anyway

Flood Insurance Isn't Perfect But You Should Probably Buy It Anyway

Claire Boston · Senior Reporter  Sat, October 26, 2024  Yahoo Finance

Flood insurance can be expensive and have major coverage limitations when disasters strike. But as climate change increases the frequency of extreme weather, it’s becoming essential coverage even for those who don’t live in traditional high-risk areas.

Recent disasters like Hurricane Helene, which severely flooded inland, mountainous parts of North Carolina, and catastrophic rainfall in central Vermont underscore the risks of flooding in areas far from the coasts. Last weekend, record-setting rain in Roswell, N.M., brought flash flooding that killed two people.

In the last 20 years, nearly every county in the US has experienced some degree of flooding, according to the Federal Emergency Management Agency, better known as FEMA. Conventional homeowners insurance offers little to no flood protection, and nationwide just 4% of households carry flood insurance.

That gap in insurance coverage can leave homeowners with catastrophic bills following an unexpected disaster.

 “A lot of people think that flood is a covered peril, be it within their homeowner’s policy or their renter’s policy,” said Mark Niess, vice president of private flood at insurer Wright Flood. “There is coverage for water, but there’s not necessarily coverage for flood.”

Flooding is frequently cited as the most expensive type of natural disaster — a single inch of water can cause $25,000 of property damage.

Most flood coverage is provided by the US government’s National Flood Insurance Program, after private insurers exited the market en masse nearly 100 years ago following catastrophic flooding of the Mississippi River.

Homeowners who sit in 100-year floodplains — areas deemed to have a 1% chance of flooding in a given year or a 30% chance over the life of a typical mortgage — are considered “high risk” and are required to have flood insurance if they have government-backed mortgages.

But more and more homes that don’t sit in floodplains are also at risk as the planet warms. Many of FEMA’s flood zone maps haven’t been updated in years, and even those that have been rely on historical storm data and don’t take into account how climate change and an atmosphere that holds more moisture will affect future flooding.

Buncombe County, N.C., which was hit hard by flooding from Hurricane Helene, experienced more than 50 floods between 1996 and 2019, according to FEMA data. But few structures in the county were designated as being in a flood zone, and less than 1% of buildings were covered by NFIP policies.

The lack of insurance is financially devastating. Data provider CoreLogic pegs the total uninsured losses from Helene between $20 billion and $30 billion.

“We know that a lot of things have changed related to how our communities are experiencing flood risk, even just in recent years,” said Anna Weber, a senior policy analyst for environmental health at the Natural Resources Defense Council.

“Not only do we have to update the flood maps so that they are accurately describing current conditions, we also have to look into the future so we understand what we’re going to be experiencing in the decades to come.”

Flood-prone states like Florida, Texas, and Louisiana have the most homes insured under the NFIP, but in states as varied as Massachusetts and Arizona, nearly every county has experienced 50 or more floods between the late 90s and 2019, according to FEMA data.

Clare:  New details regarding the 2025 budget tables.. Check them out

10/29/2024  Baghdad

The government confirmed that the 2025 budget will remain within the range of 200 trillion dinars, despite the parliamentary finance committee’s demands to reduce it to match the expected financial revenues for next year.

In this context, the Prime Minister's Advisor for Financial Affairs, Mazhar Muhammad Salih, explained that "the 2025 budget will remain linked to the constants approved in the Federal General Budget Law for the three years (2023-2024-2025), which was previously submitted by the government and approved by the House of Representatives."

Saleh stated that "next year's budget will include a hypothetical deficit of 64 trillion dinars," indicating that "this deficit is a precautionary deficit that has been approved by law to deal with revenue fluctuations, especially oil revenues, which are affected by changes in global energy prices and the oil asset cycle." 

He added that "the total spending ceiling will approach 200 trillion dinars, according to the country's financial and economic conditions."

He pointed out that "the price of a barrel of oil in the three-year budget, which includes the 2025 budget, was set at $70. If the price of oil exceeds this level, this will lead to a reduction in the expected hypothetical deficit in the budget."

FIVE THINGS TO EXPECT IN CARDANO'S UPCOMING CHANG 2 UPGRADE

The Cardano blockchain's two-part Chang Hard Fork represents a major upgrade that will enhance network functionality and decentralized governance. On Sept. 1, Chang 1, the first phase of the Chang Hard Fork, was activated, bringing crucial improvements such as empowering the Interim Constitutional Committee.

In November 2024, the process to enact the second phase of the Chang upgrade is expected to kick off in full swing, ushering in a critical phase for Cardano’s governance evolution. Chang 2 will require five governance actions to be successfully enacted on-chain.

The current roadmap anticipates a prerelease of Cardano node v10 for testing in mid-October. This crucial phase will initiate thorough testing across multiple environments, starting with the preview and preprod testnets. This second controlled Chang hard fork will complete the metamorphosis of Cardano to the age of Voltaire. 

This culmination of the Chang upgrade will mark a watershed moment for Cardano’s governance, marking a pivotal shift that will have far-reaching and long-term consequences for the whole ecosystem. What to expect The second phase of the Chang Hard Fork is expected to bring even more advancements. In a recent tweet, Emurgo, a founding entity of Cardano, outlined five updates to potentially expect.

First is Delegate Representative (DRep) Voting. Introducing Delegate Representative (DRep) Voting aims to strengthen the community's voice. DReps will be one of the key governing bodies in Cardano's governance framework, able to vote on ideas and governance actions on behalf of the whole community. SPO (Stake Pool Operator) voting will also be a key upgrade in the Chang phase 2.

 Through this update, SPOs will gain voting power by leveraging the stakes delegated to their pools, altering their role in Cardano's future decentralized governance to one of greater participation.

The Cardano Chang 2 upgrade will also usher in governing actions; here, community members will be encouraged to propose governance actions. Anybody in the community will be able to initiate a proposal with a small ADA deposit, which will be refunded after voting ends. 

The proposal will go through a voting procedure with DReps and SPOs to verify that the results match the Cardano community's vision. 

Another update to be expected is Treasury Withdrawal. To carry out the approved governance actions, a treasury withdrawal system will be deployed. Approved governance actions will receive funding allocated directly from Cardano’s treasury.

 This system will allow community members to shape treasury funds, promoting the Cardano network's long-term growth.

Daniela Carbone:  10-29-2024

“America has gone the longest in our history without a recession. History would say we're getting closer to a problem,” warns legendary investor Jim Rogers, chairman of Beeland Interests and co-founder of the Quantum Fund and Soros Fund Management.

Speaking with Daniela Cambone, Rogers highlights the mounting U.S. debt as a path to financial danger, predicting that “the next bear market has to be very serious… and printing money is not going to solve the problem.”

He warns that persistent banking sector issues could trigger a domino effect across currency, investment, bond, and stock markets, calling it potentially “the worst in my lifetime because the debt is so much higher compared to 2008.”

Tishwash:  Government advisor explains details of 2025 budget deficit: “We are counting on oil prices”

The Prime Minister's Advisor for Financial Affairs, Mazhar Muhammad Salih, confirmed today, Tuesday, that the financial deficit in the 2025 budget amounted to 64 trillion dinars, amid expectations of an increase in oil prices in the global market.

Saleh said, in a statement followed by "Al-Eqtisad News", that "next year's budget 2025 will not deviate from the constants approved in the Federal General Budget Law, the three-year budget submitted by the government and approved by the House of Representatives for the years 2023-2024-2025."

Regarding the budget deficit, he explained that “the 2025 budget will have a hypothetical deficit of 64 trillion dinars, which is a (precautionary) deficit that has been established by law to avoid fluctuations in the general budget revenues for the coming year, especially oil revenues, which are subject to fluctuations in the oil asset cycle and the conditions of energy markets in the world.”

Saleh added, "The price of a barrel of oil in the three-year budget, to which the 2025 budget is subject, was set at $70, and any annual increase in oil prices exceeding $70 per barrel of exported oil will reduce the hypothetical deficit in the budget  link

Tishwash:  The Future of Relations with Washington: Iraq Wants Partnership, Not Hegemony

The relationship between Iraq and the United States faces major challenges in light of regional developments and internal political changes in both countries.

There is an Iraqi trend to present its relationship with Washington in a different way than it was in the past, as Iraq seeks to diversify this relationship away from the military and security dimension that has long dominated bilateral cooperation. Iraq recently submitted an official memorandum of protest to the UN Security Council against Israel, stressing the need to clarify positions and highlight Iraqi grievances before international forums, a step aimed at reformulating Iraq's foreign policies in a way that enhances its sovereignty and independence.

In this context, the Iraqi government formed a special committee to review the relationship with Washington, based on the Strategic Framework Agreement signed in 2008, which sought to establish a partnership based on cooperation in various fields, not just security affairs.

Sources told Al-Masala that Iraq seeks to achieve a balanced partnership that will allow it to build a strong and sustainable economy, by benefiting from Washington’s expertise in the economic, educational, and health fields, instead of relying excessively on the military aspect. This trend reflects a strong desire to achieve the aspirations of the Iraqi people away from the effects of regional conflicts.

Moreover, Iraq announced earlier this year the end of the international coalition formed in 2014 to fight ISIS, a move aimed at reducing foreign military presence and restoring national control over sovereign decisions.

This announcement comes as part of a plan aimed at changing the pattern of relations with the United States, while seeking to develop new mechanisms for cooperation through a tripartite military committee that includes representatives from both parties.

Analyses indicate that “this committee must establish strong foundations for a real partnership that is far from hegemony and based on mutual interest, so that Iraqis feel the impact of this partnership in their daily lives.”

The shift towards economic partnership has become an increasing demand, as some voices within the Iraqi government stress the need to move from reliance on military support to enhancing cooperation in the areas of infrastructure, technology and energy, which contributes to developing Iraq’s economic capabilities and providing job opportunities for young people.

The Iraqi-American relationship is one of the most complex issues in the Iraqi political scene, and it is a source of disagreement between political forces, as visions differ on how to deal with this relationship and direct it towards a path that serves the country’s interests, far from foreign interference.

Political movements see Washington as a key partner whose cooperation must be maintained, especially in the economic, health and educational fields in which Iraq lacks long-term institutional support.

These forces call for expanding areas of cooperation outside the security framework, noting that the United States can be a strategic ally for Iraq's development through massive investments, especially in the areas of infrastructure and energy.

Perhaps this trend is expressed by representatives in parliament and officials who believe that building a comprehensive economic partnership with Washington can achieve economic stability away from oil revenues.

On the other hand, there are forces that consider the relationship with the United States to be fraught with sovereignty risks. These parties, which often tend to adopt a nationalist discourse that rejects the American military presence, see American policy in the region as conflicting with Iraq’s interests and regional orientations.

Given the vast regional influence of these powers, the political arena has witnessed calls to re-evaluate the relationship and determine the extent of its need.

This division is clearly evident in the decisions of the Iraqi government, which seeks, on the one hand, to calm internal fears by forming committees to review the strategic framework agreement with the United States, and on the other hand faces pressure to confirm the trend towards new partnerships that are not subject to external pressures.

The joint committee held three meetings in Washington and Baghdad, during which it reached a new mechanism to regulate the relationship between the two parties, which stipulates the withdrawal of the remaining American combat forces in Iraq, and the retention of a number of advisors for the purposes of advice and logistical support, according to the strategic framework agreement signed in 2008 and ratified by the Iraqi parliament. link

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

CARDANO WILL RUN A NATION STATE: HOSKINSON SHARES WHEN AND HOW

In a keynote titled “After Voltaire: The Next Evolution of Cardano,” Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano, unveiled an ambitious roadmap that could see the blockchain ecosystem running a nation-state by 2030. Hoskinson envisions this nation-state as a substantial entity, potentially serving tens of millions of people.

We as an ecosystem have to make a decision. Do we want to be timid and just chase our tales and focus on small concerns or do we want to be bold and change the world? There’s no reason we can’t for the first time in human history.

We have to decide what we’re going to do with it and how far we want to take it. I believe we can run a nation state on Cardano by 2030 and not a small one, one with tens of millions of people,” the Cardano founder claimed.

How Cardano Can Run A Nation State
Hoskinson reflected on the journey of Cardano over the past seven years, emphasizing the project’s transformative impact. “We have gone from a whiteboard like this to something that has changed the lives of countless thousands of people,” he stated. 

Having traveled to 74 countries and interacted with tens of thousands of individuals, he noted that many have expressed how their lives have been changed by being part of the Cardano community.

A central theme of Hoskinson’s speech was the power of on-chain governance and community collaboration. He highlighted that the upcoming on-chain governance system is “not just some [mechanism] to make a decision; it’s a thing to bring people together to make the right decisions.” This system aims to engage the community in shaping the future of Cardano, with hundreds of workshops planned for next year to discuss marketing, branding, and system growth.

Hoskinson also highlighted the central role of the Cardano Constitution, crafted “by and for the people,” which embedded human rights at its core. “We have to have some protections for our data and our privacy, our freedom of association, commerce, and expression,” he asserted.

 The constitution seeks to guarantee that the original intentions of the ecosystem are preserved, especially in a landscape where trust in unelected entities is dwindling.

The roadmap includes the launch of major projects like Midnight, which is expected to attract millions of new users to the ecosystem. Hoskinson believes that such initiatives will catalyze the development of dozens of other significant projects across various domains, further expanding the Cardano community.

Addressing the broader implications of Cardano’s evolution, Hoskinson drew parallels with historical revolutions that have reshaped societal structures. 

“Just like the American Revolution fundamentally changed the social contract of the world […] we can hold another revolution to take back our digital lives,” he proclaimed.

 He criticized the dominance of multi-trillion-dollar corporations that exert significant control over individual lives, advocating for a future where power is decentralized and returned to the people.

Hoskinson also emphasized the unity within the blockchain industry against centralization. “Everybody in the blockchain industry is the same in that we’re all trying to fight the same thing: centralization,” he said. He called for an end to divisive narratives, urging collaboration to prevent a “terrible future of 2030” dominated by centralized control.

Concluding his keynote, Hoskinson expressed optimism about the Cardano ecosystem’s future. “We built a group of people who can do pretty much everything and we now have the resources as an ecosystem to do that. And we also have an engine that keeps speeding up and getting faster.

We just have to have the will to coordinate and prove that we are the ones to do this and we also have to realize that.”

BIS AND BIG BANKS INTRODUCE PROJECT MANDALA FOR IMPROVED CROSS-BORDER TRANSACTIONS

The Bank for International Settlements and central banks from Australia, South Korea, Malaysia, and Singapore have introduced Project Mandala, a system that embeds regulatory compliance directly into cross-border financial transactions.

This initiative addresses common hurdles in international transactions, such as varying regulations that often increase costs and slow transaction speeds. According to the BIS, hopes to streamline cross-border payments without sacrificing privacy or the quality of regulatory checks by using a “compliance-by-design” approach.

Project Mandala can also integrate with both modern digital asset systems, like central bank digital currencies, and established systems, such as SWIFT, making it flexible for traditional financial institutions and emerging digital financial systems.

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

IF TOKENIZED DEPOSITS DON’T PROGRESS, BANK OF ENGLAND LIKELY TO LAUNCH CBDC

During a speech on Saturday, Andrew Bailey the Governor of the Bank of England, discussed the importance of central bank money for both wholesale and retail payments. 

He argued that the role of central bank money is particularly important for wholesale high value payments and the settlement of payment systems. Hence, the Bank wants to enable digital innovation in the wholesale sector.

In July the Bank published a discussion paper on wholesale money, highlighting likely trials for both wholesale CBDC and an RTGS synchronization solution.

However, for retail payments, Governor Bailey thinks the Bank of England should be indifferent to whether payments use central bank money such as a retail CBDC or commercial bank money.

He’s quite keen to maintain the status quo in that most retail payments are in commercial bank money. Doing so doesn’t interfere with fractional reserve banking and the availability of credit in the economy. Regarding digital innovation such as tokenized deposits, he thinks commercial banks are where this should happen.

However, he added, “If for some reason innovation is unlikely to happen, then the central banks have to decide whether they are the only game in town. For me, this justifies why we must continue to prepare for retail CBDC. We have not yet seen enough evidence that the innovation will happen in commercial banks.”

Governor Bailey noted that on occasion, infrastructures and technologies have failed to incentivize innovation. Sometimes that relates to the concentration of market power. Hence the ongoing exploration of CBDC. “That is not my preferred outcome, but not one that we should rule out.”

Tokenized deposits trials
Meanwhile, the UK banking sector has been exploring tokenized deposits as part of the Regulated Liability Network. In September it said the next step was to engage with regulators.

The speech comes across as a ‘giddy up’, and is not the first time the Bank has made such comments. In April Deputy Governor Sarah Breeden outlined a potential scenario where bank innovation is slow, unsuccessful or fragmented.

Fragmentation has been a feature of digital securities, but for tokenized deposits, slightly less so. Some banks purely support tokenized deposits for their own clients. But there are many multi-bank projects.

Ledger Insights Research mapped more than 70 tokenized deposit, stablecoin and other DLT payment initiatives. At least 18 are multi-bank, without counting cross border payment initiatives.

HBAR ADOPTION EXPANDS AS DUBAI LAUNCHES DIGITAL WILL SOLUTION ON HEDERA

▪️Unlike traditional wills that manage physical assets, the DIFC Courts have chosen Hedera for its reliability, security, speed, and trust, ensuring a transparent process.

▪️This initiative underscores Dubai’s strategic approach to establishing a sustainable digital asset infrastructure and regulatory framework.

The Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) announced its integration of Hedera’s Hashgraph technology which will power a new Digital Asset Will inheritance solution.

This initiative is distinct from the traditional FinTech focuses like tokenized assets and payments.

Thus, it marks a unique application of distributed ledger technology (DLT) in estate planning, especially for digital asset inheritance.

Managing digital assets in inheritance is a new challenge, unlike conventional wills that distribute stocks, cash, and gold. As a result, the DIFC Courts have chosen Hedera’s technology for its reliability, security, speed, and, most importantly, trust.

 Moreover, the governing council of Hedera provides the DIFC and beneficiaries a complete peace of mind via a trusted, transparent process.

Some of the key features of Hedera like the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS), have played a crucial role in offering audit trails at every step along with accuracy. This helps to ensure the correct management of inheritances. For example, HCS’s real-time audit logs prevent mistakes in transferring assets, safeguarding beneficiaries from potential delays or errors.

The DIFC’s move highlights Dubai’s forward-thinking strategy in building sustainable digital asset infrastructure and regulation, setting a standard for digital asset planning. This collaboration is a win for both Hedera as a DLT leader and Dubai’s vision for long-term, responsible digital asset growth.

Key Developments in the Hedera Ecosystem
The Hedera ecosystem is currently seeing strong growth as several industry players are willing to transition to blockchain tech and prefer Hedera for its transparent governance and trust.

Earlier this month, investment firm Canary Capital announced the launch of the first HBAR Trust in the United States, reported CNF. This fueled further speculation around the potential introduction of a Hedera-focused Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF).

The Canary HBAR Trust will provide safe access for investors to cryptocurrency HBAR while opening the gates for institutional participation in the crypto.

 Steven McClurg, CEO of Canary Capital, highlighted that the HBAR Trust is designed to provide U.S. institutional investors with new opportunities to tap into the growing demand for crypto-related products.

On the other hand, Prove AI recently launched its artificial intelligence product on the Hedera blockchain allowing businesses to securely manage their AI training data while ensuring compliance by using Hedera’s secure and scalable infrastructure. 

Furthermore, Hedera will also provide governance solutions for businesses interacting with AI regulations and development, reported CNF.

In other news, Karate Combat, the world’s premier professional strike league, has announced the upcoming launch of its Layer-2 platform on the Hedera blockchain.

Named “UP,” this Layer-2 blockchain and crypto-native software licensing platform is set to go live in Q1 2025, aiming to propel Web3 adoption across esports, sports, and entertainment sectors, reported CNF.
