US Admits Collapse of the Dollar as BRICS Introduce New Finance
US Admits Collapse of the Dollar as BRICS Introduce New Finance
Geopolitical Analyst: 12-8-2024
In recent years, the landscape of international finance has been undergoing significant transformation, moving away from traditional systems and exploring innovative alternatives. One of the most groundbreaking initiatives emerging from this shift is BRICS Pay, a payment platform that operates on a decentralized star topology, leveraging dispersed networks to communicate payment information and liquidity.
This novel approach not only enhances the speed and efficiency of payments but also fortifies financial resilience against unilateral actions that can disrupt global economic stability.
US Admits Collapse of the Dollar as BRICS Introduce New Finance
Geopolitical Analyst: 12-8-2024
In recent years, the landscape of international finance has been undergoing significant transformation, moving away from traditional systems and exploring innovative alternatives. One of the most groundbreaking initiatives emerging from this shift is BRICS Pay, a payment platform that operates on a decentralized star topology, leveraging dispersed networks to communicate payment information and liquidity.
This novel approach not only enhances the speed and efficiency of payments but also fortifies financial resilience against unilateral actions that can disrupt global economic stability.
BRICS Pay stands out as a promising alternative to SWIFT, seeking to mitigate potential sanctions and currency volatility that have increasingly characterized the global financial arena. By adopting a decentralized framework, BRICS Pay offers rapid deployment and scalability, making it a highly adaptive solution for the member countries of the BRICS alliance—Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa. The increased focus on inclusivity and transparency aims to foster deeper economic collaboration among BRICS nations and their global partners, ultimately enhancing collective economic power in an increasingly multipolar world.
As of the second quarter of 2024, BRICS countries had significantly bolstered their gold reserves, now totaling approximately 6,200 tons, which accounts for 21.4% of the world’s total reserves. This strategic buildup reflects a broader tendency among countries to diversify from the US dollar and safeguard their economies against external shocks and sanctions.
Russia leads the pack with 2,340 tons (8.1% of global reserves), followed closely by China at 2,260 tons (7.8%). Brazil’s gold reserves have increased nearly threefold, showcasing a successful initiative to strengthen financial defenses in the face of growing global uncertainty.
Nations are increasingly turning away from their dependence on the US dollar in international trade and finance—a process known as de-dollarization. This paradigm shift is driven by various factors, including the desire for economic autonomy, stability, and resilience against US economic sanctions. The dominance of the dollar in global transactions often subjects countries to the vagaries of US monetary policy, which can lead to significant economic instability.
By diversifying their reserves, central banks aim to dispel risk linked to US financial systems and foster greater monetary independence.
Key players like China and Russia are taking significant strides to undermine US economic control by enhancing the use of their respective currencies in international commerce. These nations are establishing regional trade agreements that facilitate local currency transactions, thereby reducing reliance on the dollar.
For instance, a recent agreement between China and Brazil allows for trade in their own currencies, simplifying transactions and minimizing conversion costs.
The movement towards a decentralized payment system and the accumulation of gold reserves are emblematic of the BRICS nations’ commitment to creating a more robust and independent financial architecture. This strategic direction aims not only to cushion the economies of member nations from external pressures but also to pave the way for a multipolar global financial system.
As emerging economies gain traction on the world stage, leveraging their own currencies to bolster financial sovereignty represents a significant shift in international trade dynamics. The rise of BRICS Pay, coupled with nations’ efforts to diversify away from the US dollar, demonstrates a collective resolve to reshape global economic relations and challenge the historical dominance of Western financial institutions.
The introduction of BRICS Pay and the strategic increase in gold reserves signal a pivotal moment in the evolution of global finance. By championing decentralized systems and reducing reliance on the dollar, BRICS nations are taking measured steps towards economic independence, stability, and security.
The aim is clear: to strengthen financial autonomy against geopolitical risks while promoting an inclusive framework conducive to collaboration among emerging markets. As the world moves forward, the success of these initiatives will be closely watched as a potential blueprint for future economic cooperation and resilience on the global stage.

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,
COINBASE REVEALS LETTERS WHICH EXPOSES FDIC’S ROLE IN OPERATION CHOKEPOINT 2.0
Coinbase reveals FDIC "pause letters", showing efforts to restrict crypto banking services. Documents support Operation Chokepoint 2.0 claims.
▪️Coinbase obtained FDIC "pause letters" revealing efforts to limit banking access for crypto firms in 2022 through FOIA requests.
▪️FDIC's communications showed deliberate delays and questions aimed at halting crypto-related banking activities, fueling "Operation Chokepoint 2.0."
▪️Crypto industry leaders argue government actions restrict legal crypto businesses' access to banking services.
Coinbase, one of the largest crypto exchanges in the U.S., has made public a series of documents that point to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s (FDIC) involvement in restricting banking access for crypto companies.
The letters, obtained through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request, suggest that in 2022, the FDIC instructed banks to halt or limit services to crypto businesses.
The exchange’s legal team asserts that these documents provide evidence of a concerted effort by federal agencies to suppress the crypto industry.
Coinbase Exposes FDIC’s ‘Pause Letters’, Proving Role in Crypto Banking Restrictions
Coinbase recently revealed a set of “pause letters” sent by the FDIC to financial institutions in 2022. These letters requested that banks temporarily halt crypto-related activities until further review of compliance and risk factors.
The documents, uncovered through legal action by the exchange, shed light on the FDIC’s efforts to limit the banking services available to crypto businesses.
The “pause letters” explicitly instructed banks to pause any crypto asset-related activities. This signals a proactive stance by regulators to discourage financial institutions from engaging with cryptocurrency industry.
Paul Grewal, Coinbase CLO commented,
“The letters that show Operation Chokepoint 2.0 wasn’t just some crypto conspiracy theory. FDIC is still hiding behind way overbroad redactions. And they still haven’t produced more than a fraction of them.”
Last month, Coinbase CLO Paul Grewal revealed that the FDIC has been actively working to restrict banks from offering crypto services.
Operation Chokepoint 2.0 Allegations and Its Impact on Crypto Firms
The documents made public by Coinbase have rekindled the debate around “Operation Chokepoint 2.0,” a term coined by critics to describe alleged government efforts to stifle the crypto industry. According to the exchange legal team, these letters provide concrete evidence of a coordinated strategy by the FDIC to limit crypto firms.
Crypto executives have long complained about the difficulties of securing banking relationships due to regulatory uncertainty. The letters confirm that federal agencies have been using informal measures to suppress the industry.
However, in recent reports, US Rep. French Hill has vowed to investigate Operation Chokepoint 2.0, which he argues targets industries like crypto through politicized debanking. He has called for transparency in financial oversight and stronger protections for businesses facing unfair regulatory practices.
According to reports, Banks were asked to submit detailed analyses, including risk assessments and income projections, before moving forward with offering crypto services. This level of scrutiny and the subsequent delays were a tactic to stop financial institutions from entering relationships with the crypto sector.
Coinbase has vowed to continue pursuing transparency, despite heavy redactions in the documents released by the FDIC. As Coinbase legal chief Paul Grewal stated, further disclosure will provide additional clarity on the extent of the regulatory actions taken against the industry.
Similarly, John Deaton recently called for the incoming US government to hold accountable those responsible for debanking crypto firms.

BRICS NEWS: SOUTH AFRICA SAYS BRICS HAS NO PLANS TO CREATE NEW CURRENCY AFTER TRUMP ISSUES WARNING AGAINST DEDOLLARIZATION: REPORT
Reports on a new BRICS currency designed to compete against the US dollar are fundamentally false, according to leaders in South Africa.
In a statement, South Africa’s Department of International Relations and Cooperation (DIRCO) says BRICS is not working on a currency that could be used as an alternative to USD, reports Bloomberg.
According to DIRCO, reports have misinterpreted the intentions of the economic bloc about trade settlements between member nations.
“Recent misreporting has led to the incorrect narrative that BRICS is planning to create a new currency. This is not the case. The discussions within BRICS focus on trading among member countries using their own national currencies.”
In May of last year, reports emerged that BRICS was working on a new currency backed by gold and potentially additional precious metals and assets in a push to abandon the US dollar.
Despite those reports, South Africa is now saying that BRICS has no intention of promoting de-dollarization efforts.
“South Africa supports the increased use of national currencies in international trade and financial transactions to mitigate the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations, rather than focusing on dedollarization. The strengthening of correspondent banking networks and the development of infrastructure for settlements in national currencies could further this aim.”
South Africa’s statements come as President-elect Donald Trump issued an ultimatum against BRICS. Trump says on the social media platform Truth Social that he plans to take severe measures if BRICS creates or backs a dollar alternative.
“The idea that the BRICS Countries are trying to move away from the dollar while we stand by and watch is OVER. We require a commitment from these countries that they will neither create a new BRICS currency, nor back any other currency to replace the mighty US dollar or, they will face 100% tariffs, and should expect to say goodbye to selling into the wonderful US economy.
They can go find another ‘sucker!’ There is no chance that the BRICS will replace the US dollar in international trade, and any country that tries should wave goodbye to America.”
As a whole, BRICS nations have expressed varying levels of support for a common currency, with leaders in Russia and Brazil firmly behind the idea. South Africa is the most conservative, expressing the need for a cautious approach while emphasizing the importance of the US dollar.

Tishwash: Former Minister Rules Out Trump Imposing Sanctions on Iraqi Oil Production and Marketing
Former Minister of Electricity, Luay Al-Khatib, ruled out US President-elect Trump imposing sanctions on Iraqi oil production and marketing.
Al-Khatib stated in a post on the “X” platform, which was followed by “Jarida”, that “Trump is a man of deals and will use his tools to redraw international relations in a manner consistent with his administration by controlling the movement of the dollar and imposing sanctions and central bank dealings on some institutions, individuals and even regimes that are unfriendly or difficult to deal with with the United States.
He may be stubborn or strict on the issue of granting exceptions to Iraq’s import of Iranian gas and electricity exclusively to restrict the dollar’s access to Tehran, but he will not pressure Iraq, as the second oil producer in OPEC, to limit its production to support global markets in order to push for price instability and rises, especially in light of the sanctions in force on major producers such as Iran, Russia and others.”
He expected, “Perhaps the Trump administration will support American energy companies in the fields of oil, gas, electricity and renewable energy to invest in producing countries, including Iraq, to create an alternative and restore trade balance with an active presence, but with work controls that do not contradict financial dealings between Iraq and the United States and the two countries’ partners in the region.”
He stressed that "Iraq must move wisely and quickly to deal with the Trump administration and work on a proactive plan to win over the elected administration before it takes power so that the country can avoid costly moody scenarios that we faced during our ministerial period with great difficulty and succeeded at that time in containing them to pass exceptions on the gas and electricity files." link

Tishwash: Al-Nusairi calls on the media to be patriotic, transparent and supportive of the national economy
Economic and banking advisor Samir Al-Nusairi called for economic media to be national, specialized, accurate, honest and transparent in diagnosing economic problems and imbalances, and to be a real and supportive contributor in proposing solutions and treatments to the supervisory and regulatory government bodies, and not to be a media that is satisfied with directing criticism and accusations without relying on accurate and transparent sources and information.
Al-Nusairi pointed out that the economic analysis of those called analysts or experts should be realistic and committed to reaching accurate information from reliable sources so that the government and its economic institutions can benefit from it for the purposes of diagnosis, treatment and accountability.
Al-Nusairi warned against some non-economic media (or non-specialized media) that have recently promoted and analyzed incorrect news that is tainted with lack of credibility and fallacies in transmitting and analyzing the news according to specific visions, intentionally or unintentionally, that harm the course of economic, financial and banking reform, disrupt the movement of monetary and commodity trading in the local market, and hinder the efforts of the government and the Central Bank in achieving the goals set to achieve the desired reform steps
Stressing that the non-committed media contributes to adding another problem that affects the nerve of the Iraqi economy in addition to the challenges that the country and the region are currently suffering from, which is creating a state of economic instability and fluctuations in the exchange rate of the US dollar against the Iraqi dinar and the rise in the prices of basic and necessary goods and materials such as food and medicine.
He pointed out that it is necessary here for media workers in all its fields and analysts who roam satellite channels and lack experience and intent to realize that specialized economic media has an important and fundamental role in creating economic stability and goes beyond that to contributing to economic reform and enabling and assisting the concerned state agencies and institutions to control economic problems and spread economic culture and avoid failure cases because economic media must be national economic media in word and meaning.
Al-Nusairi explained that media and economy are in a multi-faceted and permanently related partnership, and they are on the same front to face the challenges they face together, and if we assume that the economy can create successful media, then it is certain that the media can also create a successful economy, and this is what results in the success of the media institution if it has specialized economic leaders who are aware of the role of national media.
Iraq's experience in this field is considered modern, as the economy needs support and assistance in promotion, analysis, planning and support in order to deliver a distinguished media message to the audience, whether through the press, television, radio, or modern media and communication channels.
Al-Nusairi concluded by saying: “Therefore, the economic media that can deliver a purposeful message and serve the economy and economic institutions is the one that attracts an important segment of society. It will remain and continue and achieve the strategic goals of supporting the national economy and developing the work of productive, financial and banking institutions.
The economic media must undertake positive participation in the process of development and economic reform by presenting an image of the nature of the future trends of the economy and identifying economic and development activities and events and available energies and encouraging and stimulating the economy and investment.” link

Gold, Silver, and the Great Financial Reset
Kinesis Money: 12-6-2024
In a compelling episode of Live from the Vault, Kinesis Money’s Andrew Maguire joins forces with esteemed economist Dr. Stephen Leeb to uncover the seismic shifts occurring within the global financial landscape.
Their insightful dialogue deftly navigates the accelerating decline of the US dollar’s dominance, the resurgent role of gold in contemporary monetary systems, and the significant moves being made by BRICS nations that are catalyzing a transition towards a multipolar world order.
At the heart of the discussion lies the growing vulnerability of the US dollar, long held as the world’s primary reserve currency. Maguire and Leeb analyze the multifaceted factors contributing to this decline, including rising inflation, expansive monetary policies, and geopolitical tensions.
The dollar’s entrenched status is increasingly at risk as other nations seek alternatives to mitigate their dependence on the dollar. This realignment is not just a financial shift; it represents a profound transformation in global power dynamics.
Amidst this tumult, gold is resurfacing as a form of monetary security. Maguire and Leeb highlight the critical role that gold plays in the evolving landscape, especially as central banks around the world begin to stockpile the precious metal. This strategic move underscores gold’s timeless allure as a reliable store of value and a hedge against fiat currency failures.
Leeb points out that the historical precedence of gold during economic upheaval has led to renewed interest in its intrinsic value.
As nations grapple with the challenges posed by inflationary pressures and the erosion of trust in fiat currencies, gold is being reconsidered not merely as a commodity, but as a cornerstone of sound monetary policy.
This revitalization of gold could reshape not only individual national economies but also the global financial framework.
The discussion also pivots towards the BRICS nations—Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa—whose collective muscle is creating a new paradigm in international finance. These countries are actively working to establish a multipolar world order that diminishes the spotlight on the US dollar.
The implications of their coordinated efforts are profound, signaling a shift toward diversified currencies and transactions that prioritize regional stability over reliance on a single power.
With initiatives such as the BRICS currency discussions and the promotion of trade in local currencies, these nations aim to create more equitable terms of trade that serve their interests. As Maguire suggests, this transition poses both opportunities and challenges, pushing for a recalibration of how financial systems are viewed and operated globally.
A particularly poignant element of the discussion is the dichotomy between spiritual and material perspectives in global economics. Leeb highlights the importance of recognizing the underlying values that drive economic behavior, suggesting that a purely materialistic approach, often seen in the relentless pursuit of GDP growth, is shortsighted.
The co-hosts argue for a shift towards a more holistic view of economics—one that encompasses not just monetary success but also societal well-being and ethical considerations.
Such insights urge policymakers and individuals alike to rethink their relationship with wealth and prosperity. By fostering a balance between spiritual values and material pursuits, it may be possible to create a more sustainable and equitable financial ecosystem.
As Andrew Maguire and Dr. Stephen Leeb so effectively articulate, the current financial landscape is in flux, marked by the decline of the US dollar’s supremacy, the resurgence of gold as a monetary cornerstone, and the transformative ambitions of BRICS nations.
These changes compel us to reconsider our economic paradigms and the values that underpin them. In navigating these uncharted waters, embracing a more holistic view of economics may well equip us to face the future with resilience and integrity.
The implications of their insights are vast and warrant close attention from anyone interested in the dynamics of global finance, as the winds of change continue to shape our monetary future.

This Is How Iraq Will Achieve a $3.00 IQD Revaluation
Awake-In-3D December 6, 2024
Iraq’s blueprint for a $3.00 IQD revaluation combines re-denomination, gold reserves, and sweeping reforms.
Iraq is setting the stage for a transformative economic shift with a $3.00 IQD revaluation—a move rooted in strategic planning and decisive action. By combining a re-denomination of its currency, leveraging vast gold reserves, and implementing sweeping reforms, Iraq is crafting a blueprint that could reshape its economic future. This article walks you through the steps Iraq is taking, so you can clearly see how this bold strategy is turning a monumental vision into an achievable reality.
The Current Iraqi Dinar Landscape
Iraq’s M0 money supply, which measures the total amount of physical currency in circulation, stands at 150,828 billion IQD as of September 2024. To express this figure in trillions, it becomes 150.828 trillion IQD, as one trillion equals 1,000 billion.
Image Source: https://tradingeconomics.com/iraq/money-supply-m0
Additionally, Iraq holds 152.6 metric tons of gold, which equates to approximately 4.9 million troy ounces or 152.6 million grams. At a price of $2,630 per troy ounce, these reserves are valued at around $12.9 billion USD, providing a strong foundation for monetary reform toward a $3.00 IQD.
How a $3.00 IQD Exchange Rate Works
Iraq’s plan to achieve a $3.00 IQD exchange rate relies on two major steps: re-denomination of the currency and backing the new currency with gold reserves. Here’s how these steps would work:
Step 1: Re-denomination
A currency re-denomination means adjusting the value of a currency by removing extra zeros from its face value. For Iraq, this involves removing three zeros from the current IQD notes.
For example:
Today, 1,000 IQD is equal to about $0.76 USD (since 1 IQD is worth roughly $0.00076).
After re-denomination, 1,000 IQD would become 1 new IQD, and that 1 new IQD is targeted to be worth $3.00 USD.
This step simplifies the currency, making it easier for people to use and understand. Instead of needing large numbers (like 1,000 IQD) for small transactions, the new IQD would have a higher value with fewer digits.
Step 2: Backing the New $3.00 IQD with Gold
To support the new value of $3.00 per IQD, Iraq plans to back its currency with its gold reserves. This means each unit of the new IQD would represent a portion of Iraq’s gold. Backing currency with gold provides stability because gold is a tangible, universally valued asset.
Here’s the math behind this:
Iraq’s total money supply after re-denomination would be 150.828 billion new IQD.
To set a value of $3.00 per IQD, the total currency value must equal $452.5 billion USD (calculated as 150.828 billion IQD × $3.00).
Gold is currently valued at $84.58 per gram, so Iraq needs to allocate about 0.0355 grams of gold for every 1 new IQD.
In total, Iraq would need 5.36 metric tons of gold to fully back its new currency at the $3.00 rate. Since Iraq’s reserves are much larger at 152.6 metric tons, the country has more than enough gold to implement this plan.
Why Gold-Backing Matters
By tying the value of the new IQD to gold, Iraq ensures its currency remains stable and valuable. Unlike paper money (fiat currency), which governments can print at will and risk inflation, a gold-backed currency cannot exceed the value of the gold reserves supporting it. This approach boosts confidence in the currency for both Iraqis and international investors.
How a $3.00 IQD Impacts Exports
While a $3.00 IQD delivers many benefits, including increased purchasing power for Iraqi citizens and enhanced international confidence in the currency, it also affects the competitiveness of Iraqi exports.
When a country’s currency strengthens, its goods and services become more expensive for people in other countries. For example, if Iraq exports agricultural products, industrial goods, or locally manufactured items, buyers in other nations need to spend more of their own currency to purchase those items. This higher cost creates challenges in competing with cheaper alternatives from other nations.
For Iraq’s non-oil sectors—such as agriculture, construction materials, and manufacturing—a $3.00 IQD challenges their ability to compete with lower-priced goods from other nations. This slows the development of these industries, which Iraq is keen to grow as part of its economic diversification efforts.
However, Iraq’s primary export—oil—remains unaffected. Oil is priced in USD globally, so its cost doesn’t change regardless of IQD fluctuations. This ensures Iraq’s oil revenue, which makes up the bulk of its economy, remains stable, providing a financial buffer as the country adjusts to a stronger IQD.
A Gold-Backed Currency and Economic Stability
One of the major advantages of a gold-backed currency is its built-in resistance to inflation. Unlike fiat currencies, which can be printed without limit and risk losing value over time, a gold-backed $3.00 IQD derives its value from a tangible asset—gold. This connection to a physical resource ensures monetary stability, as the supply of currency is tied directly to the amount of gold in reserves.
Historically, nations operating on a gold standard experience long periods of price stability, making such a system appealing for Iraq as it restores confidence in its currency.
Economic and Governance Considerations
To sustain the trust of its citizens and international markets, Iraq must address domestic challenges, such as corruption, inefficiency, and political instability. Transparent communication about the redenomination process and its goals is critical in fostering public support and maintaining economic stability.
Iraq has made strides in key areas to support these objectives:
Anti-Corruption Measures
The Iraqi government has intensified efforts to combat corruption, which has long plagued its institutions. The Integrity Commission has launched investigations into high-profile cases, targeting embezzlement and mismanagement of public funds. Recent legislation aims to enhance accountability by streamlining processes for auditing government projects and increasing penalties for financial chaos. These measures are vital for establishing public trust and ensuring that resources are directed toward economic reform.Banking Sector Modernization
Iraq is actively modernizing its banking system to facilitate a stable transition to a stronger IQD. Initiatives include introducing advanced digital banking platforms, improving transparency in financial transactions, and collaborating with international financial institutions for technical assistance. The Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) has also implemented stricter regulations to prevent money laundering and enhance the banking sector’s credibility on the global stage.Political Stability Efforts
Acknowledging the importance of political stability, Iraq’s leaders have focused on fostering unity among its diverse population. Efforts include resolving disputes over revenue sharing between the federal government and the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) and strengthening security measures in conflict-prone areas. These steps aim to create a more stable environment conducive to long-term economic growth.Diversification of the Economy
To reduce reliance on oil revenues, Iraq is implementing policies to promote non-oil sectors such as agriculture, manufacturing, and tourism. Programs to provide incentives for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and attract foreign investors are helping to broaden the economic base. These initiatives are aligned with Iraq’s vision for sustainable development and economic resilience in the face of global market fluctuations.Public Awareness Campaigns
The government has launched public awareness campaigns to educate citizens about the redenomination process and the benefits of a gold-backed $3.00 IQD. These efforts include town hall meetings, media outreach, and collaboration with community leaders to address concerns and misconceptions. By keeping the public informed, Iraq aims to build confidence and minimize resistance to these sweeping monetary changes.
Through these combined efforts, Iraq is positioning itself to implement a strong and sustainable $3.00 IQD exchange rate. Overcoming these challenges is essential to securing the trust of both its citizens and the international community, paving the way for long-term economic stability and growth.
Benefits of a $3.00 IQD
Global Confidence: A gold-backed $3.00 IQD strengthens Iraq’s position in international financial markets and attracts foreign investment.
Increased Purchasing Power: Iraqi citizens benefit from greater purchasing power, making imports more affordable and improving standards of living.
Economic Stability: By tying the IQD to gold, Iraq creates a stable currency, reducing the risk of inflation and promoting long-term trust.
The Bottom Line: A Feasible and Transformative Reform
With gold prices at $2,630 per troy ounce, Iraq’s reserves of 152.6 metric tons are more than sufficient to back a redenominated IQD at $3.00 IQD, requiring only 5.36 metric tons of gold. While this reform is technically feasible and promises significant benefits, Iraq must carefully manage its non-oil export sectors to mitigate the potential downsides of a stronger currency.
If implemented successfully, a $3.00 IQD marks a turning point for Iraq, restoring its currency’s historical strength and securing its place as an economic leader in the region.

END OF CRYPTO CRACKDOWNS? LAWMAKER SAYS 'REGULATION BY ENFORCEMENT IS OVER'
A top lawmaker says the U.S. is shifting from “regulation by enforcement” to clear oversight, with new leadership poised to boost cryptocurrency and AI innovation.
A New Era for Crypto and AI Regulation
U.S. House Financial Services Committee Chairman Patrick McHenry has highlighted progress in crypto regulation, focusing on new leadership roles and the evolving oversight of cryptocurrencies and artificial intelligence (AI). In a post on social media platform X Friday, McHenry praised the creation of a “crypto and AI czar” as a major development.
“The mere fact that the U.S. now has a crypto and AI ‘czar’ reflects the impact of the Financial Services Committee,” he claimed, emphasizing:
The era of regulation by enforcement is over.
“With folks like David Sacks and Paul Atkins, the future of the digital asset ecosystem in the U.S. is brighter than ever,”the congressman added. “Paul Atkins has the expertise and experience needed to restore faith in the SEC. I’m confident his leadership will lead to clarity for the digital asset ecosystem and ensure U.S. capital markets remain the envy of the world,” the congressman continued.
President-elect Donald Trump recently announced two significant appointments: David Sacks as the White House AI and Cryptocurrency Czar, and Paul Atkins as Chair of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), replacing Chair Gary Gensler.
Sacks, a venture capitalist and former Paypal executive, is tasked with developing a legal framework to bolster the U.S. crypto industry and ensure global competitiveness in artificial intelligence.
Atkins, a former SEC commissioner known for his pro-crypto stance, is expected to shift the agency’s approach towards more lenient regulations, potentially easing enforcement actions against digital asset firms.
These appointments signal the incoming administration’s intent to foster innovation in emerging technologies while reconsidering existing regulatory measures.
McHenry has announced he will retire from Congress at the end of his current term, which concludes in January 2025. As Chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, he has been a leading advocate for clear regulatory frameworks in the digital asset sector.
His comments come amid growing calls for a balanced regulatory approach that fosters innovation while ensuring investor protection. Industry observers have long criticized “regulation by enforcement” for creating uncertainty and stifling growth, making this transition a welcomed change for stakeholders.
The new focus on leadership and structured policies marks a pivotal moment for U.S. cryptocurrency and AI development, with advocates anticipating a more supportive environment for innovation.

You can tell if it's a man or a woman...how high they're going to be. You can tell a lot. That's why you can tell a lot about the monetary reform right now because it's 95% completed...What's the 5%? That's what they're doing right now.
Bruce [via WiserNow] There's a flash drive that was sent out for five institutions, three banks and two redemption centers in one case, and those were installed on laptops, and they're using laptops in the redemption centers and the bank...it's a release activation mechanism... like a release activation code key...they are designed to receive a signal in some form of protocol, let's call it - timeline activated - through the Starlink satellite system...So it would be wirelessly activated through Starlink to activate with the codes that are installed to begin what it is we're waiting for...two resources, last night, two more today are saying...that we will start this weekend.

The Next Black Swan? Expert Warns of an Economic Crisis that Could Strike Without Warning
Daniela Cambone: 12-6-2024
I think we are at peak dollar... But it’s not something that’s going to happen overnight; it will take decades to unfold,” says Clive Thompson, retired managing director of Union Bancaire Privée in Switzerland.
In an interview with Daniela Cambone, Thompson delves into the dangers of the insurmountable debt burden facing the U.S. economy. “The real debt will be more than double what it is today. And the interest being paid on that debt is probably going to be four or five times what it is today,” he warns, painting a sobering picture of the future.
Thompson also sheds light on the growing crises in Europe, highlighting the fragile state of the eurozone. “If the euro collapses, every country will start pulling in its own direction. It will be chaos.”
Watch the interview now to gain insights into Clive Thompson's perspective and learn how to navigate these turbulent times.

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,
FORMER NY FED PRESIDENT ARGUES BITCOIN COULD UNDERMINE USD, SUGGESTS PRIORITIZING REGULATORY FRAMEWORK
Bitcoin has recently surged past $100,000 following Donald Trump‘s election victory. Amidst broader market sentiments, the crypto community eagerly anticipates that Trump administration will prove to be pro-crypto and will stand behind his promise of a strategic BTC reserve for the United States.
Advocates believe it could serve as a hedge against inflation and a diversification tool in portfolios. However, Bill Dudley, former president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, has criticized Bitcoin’s role as money, describing its volatility and lack of income generation as its shortcomings.
Good Morning Dinar Recaps,
FORMER NY FED PRESIDENT ARGUES BITCOIN COULD UNDERMINE USD, SUGGESTS PRIORITIZING REGULATORY FRAMEWORK
Bitcoin has recently surged past $100,000 following Donald Trump‘s election victory. Amidst broader market sentiments, the crypto community eagerly anticipates that Trump administration will prove to be pro-crypto and will stand behind his promise of a strategic BTC reserve for the United States.
Advocates believe it could serve as a hedge against inflation and a diversification tool in portfolios. However, Bill Dudley, former president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, has criticized Bitcoin’s role as money, describing its volatility and lack of income generation as its shortcomings.
As per a latest Bloomberg report, Bill Dudley, former president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, has expressed concerns over the idea of incorporating Bitcoin into the U.S. national reserves and argues that it would not benefit most Americans. He emphasized that such a move might not align with the nation’s best interests and could divert focus from more inclusive economic policies.
Can Bitcoin Undermine USD’s Status?
He noted that incorporating Bitcoin into the US national reserves could undermine the dollar’s status as the global reserve currency and primarily benefit specific interest groups rather than the broader American public.
Notably, Bill Dudley stated that Bitcoin is a weak asset, noting reasons such as price volatility, lack of widespread acceptance as payment, and slow and expensive transaction processes that make BTC a weak asset.
He also noted the risk of individuals losing access to their Bitcoin holdings and that, unlike traditional financial assets, Bitcoin does not generate income through interest or dividends. “Bitcoin is not connected to any cash flows like interest or dividends, and its price is driven purely by speculative demand,” he explained.
The former Fed chair also noted that the absence of an exit strategy for a Bitcoin reserve would make it a liability. “The government would end up holding tokens that produce no income, offering no real value to the majority of Americans,” he said.
Suggests To Focus On Comprehensive Regulations-
Notably, Dudley argued that creating a Bitcoin reserve for the U.S. would require the Treasury to increase borrowing, raising debt servicing costs or requiring the Fed to print more money, ultimately fueling inflation.
Instead of focusing on Bitcoin as a reserve asset, Dudley has called for the Trump administration to prioritize creating a robust regulatory framework for the crypto industry.
He stressed the need for clear rules to protect consumers, regulate stablecoins, and prevent the use of cryptocurrencies in criminal activities. “Crypto technology has the potential to improve the financial system,” Dudley noted. “However, without strong guardrails, fraud and abuse will continue to undermine trust and hinder progress.”
Market Optimism Prevails
Nevertheless, there is market optimism amidst expectations of a more crypto-friendly administration. Also, the nomination of digital asset-friendly Paul Atkins to chair the SEC provided the final boost as bitcoin surpassed $100,000 to record highs.
Recently, Trump nominated venture capitalist David Sacks as the White House AI & Crypto Czar, who is expected to push Trump’s crypto and AI pro-innovation plans forward.

GARY GENSLER QUIETLY SETS AGGRESSIVE CRYPTO CRACKDOWN IN MOTION BEFORE LEAVING, WARNS FORMER SEC OFFICIAL
SEC Chair Gary Gensler is orchestrating a last-minute push to cement aggressive crypto enforcement, with secret promotions signaling a looming regulatory crackdown despite leadership changes.
Former SEC Official Warns of Crypto Crackdown Despite Incoming Pro-Crypto Chair
John Reed Stark, former head of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) Office of Internet Enforcement, has highlighted significant developments within the agency that he believes could impact the cryptocurrency sector.
“SEC Chair Gensler pulls off the first reverse Saturday Night Massacre,” Stark wrote in a post on social media platform X on Wednesday, referencing Chair Gary Gensler’s recent moves.
Stark addressed the SEC’s leadership transition and the calculated steps Chair Gary Gensler is taking to solidify the agency’s enforcement priorities before leaving office. “It looks like former SEC Commissioner Paul Atkins will be the next SEC Chair. A phenomenal choice,” he wrote.
Known for his pro-business approach, Atkins is expected to bring a different focus to the SEC. However, Stark pointed out that Gensler has been laying the groundwork to ensure the agency’s crypto enforcement efforts remain robust. “Meanwhile, current SEC Chair Gary Gensler is quietly working behind the scenes to lead the SEC from the grave,” he noted, adding:
Along these lines, Gensler just promoted three of the best, brightest, experienced and most dedicated crypto-enforcement lawyers in SEC ranks to senior executive positions—running the SEC’s Trial Unit and running the SEC’s Crypto Unit.
Although the promotions have not been formally disclosed, Stark claimed they are already finalized. He noted the secrecy surrounding the moves, stating: “Interestingly, the SEC has not publicly announced these promotions and seems to be keeping them quiet (which is unprecedented). But these well-deserved promotions are a done deal.”
Crypto firms, Stark warned, should prepare for intensified regulatory pressure even after Gensler leaves office on Jan. 20. He predicted:
The Stark reality is that it looks like the crypto-fight is on post-January 20th. So get ready for World War III on day one Chair Atkins, because these three crypto-enforcement lawyers, who are now in charge, are some of the best in the business and will not roll over easily.

Tishwash: Source: Iran resumes gas supply to Central Iraq
On Friday, Iran began gradually resuming gas supplies to power plants in central Iraq following the completion of maintenance work on gas transmission lines, a government source revealed.
The source told Shafaq News that electricity supply is expected to improve in the coming hours in central regions, particularly in Baghdad, Wasit, Diyala, parts of Al-Anbar, and other provinces.
The resumption came after a two-week suspension of Iranian gas supplies for maintenance, which had caused the Iraqi national power grid to lose about 5,500 megawatts of electricity, according to the Ministry of Electricity's announcement on November 24.
Notably, Iraq has relied on scheduled power cuts since the 1990s due to chronic electricity shortages. Residents often turn to private generators to fill the gap.
To supplement its needs, Iraq imports 33-40% of its gas and electricity from Iran. However, US sanctions on Iran have complicated payment for these imports, restricting Iran's access to funds for purchasing non-sanctioned goods like food and medicine.
In light of these challenges, Baghdad has been pursuing alternative energy strategies, including regional grid connections to secure stable electricity supplies without relying on fuel.
Iraq has also sought to diversify its gas imports, signing a preliminary agreement with Turkmenistan in August 2023 to supply gas for its power stations.
On the other hand, the United States continues to pressure Iraq to reduce its reliance on Iranian gas, despite Iraq’s status as the second-largest oil producer in OPEC. link

Tishwah: Due to the Kurdish boycott, a representative reveals the reasons for postponing the budget reading
Today, Saturday, the representative of the Al-Fatah Alliance, Walid Al-Sahlani, revealed the reasons for raising the budget paragraph, while pointing out that there are multiple points of view regarding the paragraphs that need to be amended.
Al-Sahlani said in a statement to Al-Maalouma Agency, “The Parliamentary Finance Committee requested to postpone the reading of the budget law for a second reading until the Minister of Finance is hosted.”
He added, "The Kurdish parties refused to enter the session because the budget paragraph was removed from the agenda."
He pointed out that "the Kurdish parties insist on presenting the budget without the need to host the Minister of Finance."
He pointed out that "the majority of the members of the House of Representatives requested to host the Minister of Finance before starting to read the budget amendment." link

Tishwash: Mazhar Mohammed Saleh: Iraq's economy, financial flows and trade relations will not be affected by events in Syria
The Iraqi Prime Minister's Advisor for Economic Affairs, Mazhar Mohammed Salih, confirmed the strength of the Iraqi economy, its financial flows, and its trade relations, noting that this economy has not been affected by the tensions taking place in the Syrian arena.
Mazhar Muhammad Salih said in a press statement, “The Syrian economy is an economy sanctioned by countries, such as the United States and some other European countries, and therefore all banking relations (for Iraq) with Syria are basically unavailable.”
He explained that “trade with Syria is mostly border trade and consists of simple, natural civilian goods such as agricultural crops or something like that.”
Regarding the impact of the events in Syria on the exchange rate of the dollar in Iraq, Mazhar Muhammad Salih stated that “the current events are in Syria, not Iraq,” adding that “the problems in Syria may affect some of the simple border trade known, or which is civil or related to the tourism sector, and some simple problems and disturbances may occur, but they are not major disturbances.”
The Iraqi Prime Minister's advisor for economic affairs pointed out that "the Iraqi economy, by nature, has high cash flows from its oil trade and global trade with large trade sources, while the minor fluctuations that are taking place are nothing but colorful noise."
He explained that “the parallel markets usually benefit from any political event in neighboring countries, for example, to raise the price, and for speculators to benefit, so this is a temporary speculation that leads to very simple price disturbances, and has no relation to the Iraqi economy, and is called information markets, so what is happening in Syria at the present time will not affect the Iraqi economy, and our economy is completely isolated from the Syrian issue.”
Mazhar Mohammed Saleh stressed that “the country is immune and there is no fear for our trade because it is governed by the central policies of the state,” noting that “Iraq obtains its budget from major oil revenues, which strengthen the banks’ finances and finance Iraq’s foreign trade, not the domestic market,” adding that “the parallel market is a completely superficial market and does not indicate anything in reality about the Iraqi economy at the present time.”
The Iraqi Prime Minister’s advisor for economic affairs stated that “the parallel market benefits from the neighboring unrest and does not pose any threat to the Iraqi economy and does not represent anything, and we are immune to what is happening in Syria,” explaining that “the problems in Syria are not new to it and have existed since 2011, so there is no fear for the Iraqi economy, which is immune and neutral from the problems of others.”
Mazhar Muhammad Salih stressed that “our policies are disciplined, so what is happening in Syria does not affect the overall economic situation, and an increase in the exchange rate of the currency by one or two dollars could return to its previous state quickly, perhaps through a single statement.”
He believed that “Iraq’s economic situation is secure, its oil policies are calm, its trade relations with the outside world are going well, and its cash flows from cash revenues are good and beyond reproach, and thus the economic situation is stable.” link

Frank26 Someone right now can buy 1 million [dinars] …for $1,200, $1,300 but when the blessing occurs you’re going to end up spending a million to buy a million dinars. No, I don’t think so. But the whales and sharks will. They’ll buy 1 million dinar for $1 million because they know as it floats it’ll go to $3 million and they made a killing. That’s when the sharks make their money. They smell the chum right now and some of them are moving but not as much as they will when it happens. When it happens big boys play with big money.
Militia Man Article quote: “The fiscal year of government banks in Iraq ends the end of December each year where some financial operations are temporarily suspended to conduct annual settlements and close accounts.” Those that think Iraq is on a different system and different time frames for their end of year…those that were saying April or March are wrong. Fiscal year of the government bank ends at the end of December each year.

XRP LAWSUIT NEWS: ATKINS WON’T DISMISS THE RIPPLE CASE, SEC VS XRP TO CONTINUE
Gary Gensler's departure in January 2025 could leave the SEC’s stance on Ripple unchanged, with Jorge Tenreiro playing a key role in the ongoing case.
As the SEC’s appeal deadline for Ripple approaches in January 2025, the transition in leadership raises questions about the future of crypto regulations.
Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,
XRP LAWSUIT NEWS: ATKINS WON’T DISMISS THE RIPPLE CASE, SEC VS XRP TO CONTINUE
Gary Gensler's departure in January 2025 could leave the SEC’s stance on Ripple unchanged, with Jorge Tenreiro playing a key role in the ongoing case.
As the SEC’s appeal deadline for Ripple approaches in January 2025, the transition in leadership raises questions about the future of crypto regulations.
Gary Gensler, the controversial head of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), will step down on January 20, 2025, as announced by the agency recently. Gensler, who was widely criticized by crypto investors during his tenure, will leave just days before a major decision in the SEC’s ongoing legal battle with Ripple, set for January 25, 2025.
What Gary Gensler’s Departure Means for the SEC’s Ripple Lawsuit
However, despite Gensler’s departure, the future of the SEC’s approach to crypto remains uncertain. Bill Morgan, an attorney closely following the case, pointed out that the SEC’s new chief litigation counsel, Jorge Tenreiro, is deeply involved in the Ripple litigation.
Tenreiro, who will be the key lawyer in the SEC v. Ripple case, may continue in this role even after the confirmation of the new SEC commissioner, Paul Atkins. Morgan expressed skepticism about any significant shift in the SEC’s stance on crypto if Tenreiro remains in charge of the litigation.
Morgan warned against assuming that the SEC’s decision not to file its brief in the Ripple case by January 15, 2025, signals a change in approach. He said that Tenreiro would still be handling it.
Morgan wrote, “If Tenreiro stays in the new role it will not signal a big change in SEC enforcement policy towards crypto. Even if there is a change the SEC v Ripple Appeal may continue.”
Jorge Tenreiro’s Role: Will the SEC’s Stance on XRP Change?
In response, Marc Fagel, a former SEC lawyer, clarified that trial counsel like Tenreiro do not make policy decisions; they handle enforcement actions approved by the SEC’s Commissioners.
Fagel asked whether there was any example of a new SEC administration dismissing a pending enforcement action, though he acknowledged that future changes could deviate from past norms.
As the January 2025 appeal deadline approaches, it remains to be seen how the SEC’s leadership transition will impact the outcome of the Ripple case and the agency’s overall approach to the cryptocurrency market.
FAQs
What impact will Gensler’s departure have on the Ripple lawsuit?
Despite Gensler’s exit, the SEC’s approach may remain the same, with Jorge Tenreiro continuing to handle the Ripple case.
Will the SEC’s stance on crypto change after Gary Gensler leaves?
Legal experts suggest the SEC’s crypto policy may not change significantly, even with a leadership transition and Tenreiro in charge.
What is the significance of the January 2025 Ripple case appeal deadline?
The Ripple appeal deadline in January 2025 is pivotal for the future of crypto regulation, potentially shaping the SEC’s approach.

RIPPLE TARGETING YEAR-END RLUSD STABLECOIN LAUNCH: REPORT
Ripple is pushing to launch its U.S. dollar-pegged stablecoin, RLUSD, by the end of 2024, though regulatory approvals and the holiday season could cause delays.
This sentiment comes from Ripple CTO David Schwartz. Speaking at The Block’s Emergence conference in Prague, Schwartz expressed optimism despite challenges.
“I’m very hopeful it will happen this year, but once you start running into Christmas and New Year’s, people are gone,” he said, according to The Block.
RLUSD was initially announced in April and will operate on both the XRP Ledger and Ethereum. Testing began in August, and Ripple has partnered with exchanges Uphold, Bitstamp, and Bitso, alongside market makers B2C2 and Keyrock, to ensure liquidity.
No release on December 4
One of the main obstacles is obtaining regulatory approval from the New York State Department of Financial Services
There was speculation that Ripple’s stablecoin would be released on December 4. However, the company addressed this speculation on X, stating, “Despite some rumors, RLUSD isn’t launching today. We’re working closely with the NYDFS on final approval and will share updates as soon as possible.”

David Morgan: Gold - The Monetary Hitching Post of the Universe
Palisades Gold Radio: 12-6-2024
Tom Bodrovics, welcomes back David Morgan, founder of The Morgan Report, for a discussion centered around their recent interviews with Dr. Judy Shelton.
They highlight her advocacy for the moral obligation of money and her belief in an honest monetary system that fosters freedom and stability.
Morgan believes these views align with his life's work. The conversation touches upon potential solutions for imposing monetary discipline on the government, including the idea of long-term gold bonds and a bimetallic standard consisting of both gold and silver.
The benefits of a bimetallic system include regulation of inflation, but its practicality is questioned due to the current market values of gold and silver.
Morgan also discusses the role of the Federal Reserve in the US monetary system, suggesting that commercial banks create most of the money through loans and advocating for the Treasury to manage monetary policy according to the Constitution.
He expresses skepticism towards Central Bank Digital Currencies due to concerns over privacy and potential loss of control by individuals.
David Morgan shares his long-term perspective on investing in silver, emphasizing its importance as a form of financial security and potential return to being a monetary asset.
He also discusses the industrial uses of platinum and palladium and expresses his bullish sentiment towards these metals.
In conclusion, Morgan advocates for self-reliance, fundamental human values, and focuses on the human spirit despite skepticism towards politics.
David Morgan is working on a documentary called "Silver Sunrise" that explores the monetary system, stress, fear, and control related to money, featuring interviews from renowned figures like G. Edwin Griffin, Ron Paul, Ellen Brown, and Mark Passio, set for release early next year.
