SEC BACKS OFF: UNISWAP ANNOUNCES END OF INVESTIGATION

The platform called the move a “huge win for DeFi” after reports have suggested the SEC may be radically changing its approach to crypto enforcement in 2025.

Uniswap Labs, the developer behind the Uniswap decentralized exchange, reported that the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has dropped its probe into the firm.

According to a Feb. 25 X post, the SEC concluded its investigation into Uniswap and has no plans to pursue enforcement action against the firm. The report followed Uniswap’s announcement that it received a Wells notice from the SEC in April 2024 while the commission was under the leadership of then-Chair Gary Gensler.

“This is a huge win for DeFi and reaffirms what we’ve always known – that the technology we build is on the right side of the law, and our work is on the right side of history,” said Uniswap.

At the time of publication, the SEC had not made any official announcement regarding Uniswap. However, Coinbase made a similar claim on Feb. 21 that the commission would be closing its case against the crypto exchange roughly two years after being launched. The regulator’s Enforcement Division will also be closing investigations into Robinhood Crypto and OpenSea.

Changing course on crypto in 2025?

According to multiple filings with the SEC, the commission’s crypto task crypto met with representatives of several firms in February as part of efforts to explore potential changes to digital asset regulation.

Commissioner Hester Peirce, who leads the task force, suggested that the SEC wait until it has a Senate-confirmed chair to set a different regulatory path.

However, with the Uniswap action and others, the commission seems to be quickly changing its approach to crypto enforcement. Some experts have suggested that all other SEC cases, including a pending appeal from Ripple Labs following a court judgment, could be paused or withdrawn entirely.

Before US President Donald Trump took office, Reuters reported that the SEC would consider freezing all crypto enforcement cases that did not involve fraud as part of the administration’s change in policy on digital assets. 

Project 2025, an ultra-conservative policy framework that Trump’s team has largely followed since Jan. 20, suggested that the administration “remove regulatory impediments” at the SEC.

NASDAQ FILES 19B-4 FOR CANARY CAPITAL’S HEDERA HBAR SPOT ETF

Big news for HBAR and Litecoin. Nasdaq has officially filed a 19b-4 form with the SEC, seeking approval to list and trade shares of the Canary HBAR ETF.    

According to Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas, this puts HBAR and Litecoin in the best position among current altcoin ETF filings, increasing their chances of gaining regulatory approval ahead of others. This ETF is designed to track the real-time price of HBAR, the 21st-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization.

This filing marks a significant expansion of Canary Capital’s crypto investment products, following the launch of its HBAR Trust in October 2024 and an initial ETF registration (S-1) in November.

What This Means for HBAR?

If approved, the ETF would allow investors to gain exposure to Hedera’s HBAR token without directly purchasing or holding it. This kind of institutional investment vehicle has historically been seen as a positive development for crypto adoption, making it easier for traditional investors to enter the space.

HBAR’s price has reacted positively to the news, surging 5% following Nasdaq’s filing. This follows a previous 20% jump after the S-1 filing in November, showing strong investor enthusiasm for an HBAR-based ETF.

Canary Capital’s Growing Influence in Crypto ETFs

Canary Capital is also pursuing other cryptocurrency ETFs. Alongside the HBAR ETF, the firm has filed for a spot Litecoin ETF, which is now awaiting SEC approval. According to Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas, Litecoin’s regulatory outlook appears favorable, as it has not been caught in legal disputes with the SEC and has been classified as a commodity by the CFTC.

The spot Litecoin ETF has already been listed on the Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation (DTCC) under the ticker “LTCC,” an essential step toward its launch.

More Crypto ETFs in the Pipeline

Canary Capital isn’t stopping at HBAR and Litecoin. The firm has also filed for a spot XRP ETF, which the SEC has already acknowledged. Plus, there are reports that Canary is exploring similar investment products for Solana (SOL), indicating a broader push for crypto ETFs.

The introduction of more spot crypto ETFs signals a growing interest in making digital assets more accessible to institutional investors. 

While the SEC’s decision on the HBAR ETF is still pending, this filing represents a major step toward mainstream crypto adoption. If approved, it could pave the way for more blockchain-based investment products in the future.

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

RUSSIA REJECTS BRICS, PROPOSES HISTORIC DEAL WITH THE US

Russia is slowly bowing out of the BRICS agenda of cutting ties with the US and the dollar for trade and transactions.

In a historic deal, Russian President Vladimir Putin has proposed to supply 2 million tons of aluminum to the US markets. The move could stabilize prices in the commodity metals sector and smoothen out price fluctuations and market volatility.

In addition, BRICS member Russia also outlined potential deals with the US in supplying rare earth resources. Russia has the world’s fifth-largest rare earth metals reserves that the US could use for industry and military production and benefit immensely.

The prospective economic deal covers aluminum and rare earth materials from BRICS member Russia to the US. President Donald Trump had earlier hinted that “major economic development transactions with Russia” could soon take place.

The rare earth materials are mostly used for magnet production that turns power into motion for electric vehicles (EV). It also covers the production of cell phones and other military equipment. If the deal goes through with the US, this will be a complete U-turn of policies from BRICS member Russia.

“We would be ready to offer (joint projects with) our American partners. And when I say ‘partners,’ I mean not only administrative and governmental structures but also companies, if they showed interest in joint work,” said Putin and added, “We undoubtedly have, I want to emphasize, significantly more resources of this kind than Ukraine.”

BRICS Countries Take U-Turn With the US

After Trump took over the White House in January, BRICS countries are backtracking from teaching the US a lesson. India recently rejected the idea of launching a BRICS currency and embraced the US dollar for trade. 

Brazil is also considering nixing the idea of a common currency in the upcoming summit in July.

Also, China is urging the US to not weaponize trade with tariffs. BRICS member Russia, which was a staunch supporter of de-dollarization, is now seeking business deals with the US.

GRAYSCALE’S CARDANO ETF UNDER SEC REVIEW – DECISION EXPECTED BY AUG. 2025

▪The SEC has officially started reviewing Grayscale’s Cardano ETF proposal for potential approval.

▪A final decision on the Cardano ETF is expected by August 2025 after the review process.

▪Polymarket shows a 62% chance of approval, rising from 51% in January 2025.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has officially started reviewing Grayscale’s proposal for a Cardano (ADA) exchange-traded fund (ETF). If approved, this would be a major milestone for Cardano, making it easier for investors to gain exposure to ADA through traditional markets.

This move follows NYSE Arca’s request to list and trade shares of the Grayscale Cardano Trust on the stock exchange. With the SEC now reviewing the application, the countdown to a decision has begun – one that could shape ADA’s future in a big way. A final ruling is expected within 180 days.

So, will Cardano join the ranks of crypto assets with an approved ETF? And what could this mean for ADA’s price and market adoption? Here’s what you need to know.

Cardano ETF Review Begins

On February 24, 2025, the SEC formally accepted NYSE Arca’s application, marking the start of the review process. The request was originally submitted on February 10, 2025. If approved, this ETF would allow investors to gain exposure to Cardano (ADA) through a regulated platform without needing to hold the cryptocurrency directly.

A Cardano ETF would make it easier for investors to buy and sell shares tied to ADA’s price. This could attract more traditional investors and increase ADA’s accessibility in a secure and regulated environment.

Approval Odds Are Rising

The chances of a Cardano ETF approval in 2025 are improving. Polymarket, a decentralized prediction platform, now estimates a 62% likelihood of approval, up from 51% in January. The SEC’s recent acknowledgment of multiple crypto ETF filings, including Grayscale’s XRP ETF, has contributed to this growing optimism.

How It Could Impact ADA’s Price

A Cardano ETF could boost demand by attracting institutional investors, potentially driving up ADA’s price. Analysts believe that as long as ADA holds support between $0.67 and $0.81, further gains are possible. However, if it falls below this range, downward pressure could follow.

At the moment, Cardano is trading at $0.68, with a market capitalization of $24.16 billion. Its trading volume has surged by 81.15%, reaching $1.08 billion, reflecting growing market interest.

RV Excerpts from the Restored Republic via a GCR: Update as of Tues. 25 Feb. 2025

Compiled Tues. 25 Feb. 2025 12:01 am EST by Judy Byington

What We Think We Know as of Tues. 25 Feb. 2025:

Sun. 23 Feb. 2025 Trump’s Plan For Income Taxes: Republican lawmakers have reignited debates surrounding the U.S. tax system. Rep. Buddy Carter introduced the “Fair Tax,” aiming to replace income taxes with a national sales tax. https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/taxes/here-s-trump-s-plan-for-income-taxes/ar-AA1zCAKf?ocid=hpmsn&cvid=adc07a488f5d4a49e7981baaf3429150&ei=42

Mon. 24 Feb. 2025 Payout for Tier Groups involved in the RV:

The Dubai Accounts Funds the RV: Dubai 1 funds Tiers 1&2 of the RV and Dubai 2 funds Tiers 3&4 of the RV, while Dubai 3 funds the Adjudicated Accounts and GESARA.

The payout of the Bonds and Currency is done in order of the different tiers. There are five Tiers that will be exchanging: Tiers 1, 2, 3, 4 &5.

Liquidity Release is done in a certain order. The Elders, German Bonds and select Yellow Dragon Bonds must be paid first and have been.

A. Dubai 1 released for liquidity which then triggers Dubai 2&3.
B. F&P’s are released to recipients (they need D1 liquid, this is their hold up)
C. Bonds will be liquid (they need D1 to be liquid)
D. Tiers 1-4b are notified. (they need D1 to be liquid) It appears all is set to go on or about the same time!

Tier 1 Sovereign Nation Debt of Governments: Chinese Royals, Bond Holders, Paymasters, Church Groups, CMKX, F&P, Adjudicated Settlements, Ranch and Farm Claims and other groups.

Tier 2 Royals, Elders, Whales, Military Generals and some political type Elites with platforms of currency, corporations, etc.

Tier 3 Admirals Group, American Indians, CMKX, large church groups like the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The Pentecostal group was now 100% under an NDA.

Tier 3 was all Dubai 2 Trust Money and originally was the Generals and public. Now Tier 3 includes groups with projects including the Admiral.

The Admiral was sent to the back of the line and renamed Tier 4A (really just a pie slice of tier 3). The Admiral’s Group was composed of three parts – most notable of which was Tier4a Core groups and 130 VIP groups.

Tier 4B, (us, the Internet Group) is the largest group and composed of the general public who paid attention to the intel – the people who have bought currency and/or bonds and kept up with the reset by way of information on the Internet.

Tier 5 The general public who never paid attention to the Intel.

The official GO for Tier 4b has not been released yet. It can happen any moment. As all Tier1-4b are funded, we await the final release to reach to our level.

It’s a process. It’s tedious and time consuming – making adjustments as needed along the way for accuracy and safety of all involved. It’s a very quiet & discrete operation, where the general public is left uninformed for obvious reasons.

Pay attention to the levels that are ahead of us. That will help give a better understanding of where we are, in relation to it reaching the 4b level. BUT, it is unfolding. And when it reaches our levels, there will be no doubts. It’s coming! Keep the faith.

“Off the Radar”: A Mystery Entity Wants Their Gold NOW!

Daniela Cambone:  2-24-2025

"Someone, somewhere is asking for delivery… and those bars are being delivered. What they're doing with them, we don't know,” says Clive Thompson, retired Managing Director of Wealth Management at Union Bancaire Privée (UBP).

He sits down with Daniela Cambone to discuss the unprecedented surge in gold futures premiums, record-breaking delivery requests, and the growing uncertainty in the gold market. “We’ve never seen COMEX investors demanding delivery of 70,000 bars.

It’s completely off the scale and completely abnormal,” Thompson warns.

 He breaks down why gold isn’t necessarily “running out” but how skyrocketing demand could lead to price spikes, shortages, and delays in acquiring physical gold.

Dr. Judy Shelton: Where is all the Fed’s Money Going?

Dr. Judy Shelton:  Where is all the Fed’s Money Going?

Liberty and Finance:  2-24-2025

In a recent discussion with Liberty and Finance, Dr. Judy Shelton, former economic advisor to President Donald Trump and author of “Good as Gold: How to Unleash the Power of Sound Money,” delivered a powerful argument for a return to honest money, framing it not just as an economic necessity but as a moral and constitutional imperative.

Shelton, a long-time advocate for sound monetary policy, argues that the Federal Reserve’s current approach, particularly its focus on “stable inflation,” fundamentally betrays the principles of true monetary integrity.

Shelton’s core argument hinges on the idea that the Federal Reserve’s inflation targeting directly erodes purchasing power. While the Fed aims for a moderate level of inflation, Shelton argues that this constant devaluation of the currency disproportionately harms those with lower incomes and fixed savings, exacerbating wealth inequality.

In essence, she posits that the pursuit of “stable inflation” is a government-sanctioned theft of wealth from ordinary citizens.

Drawing on historical examples, Shelton champions a return to a gold standard as a potential remedy for the current monetary malaise.

She argues that a currency linked to gold, unlike the fiat currency controlled by the Federal Reserve, provides a natural check on government spending and prevents the excessive printing of money that leads to inflation.

 A gold standard, according to Shelton, fosters greater price stability and encourages long-term economic planning.

Moreover, Shelton raises concerns about the accuracy of official government inflation statistics, suggesting they often paint a misleading picture of the true economic situation faced by everyday Americans. She believes that these flawed metrics lead to misguided investment decisions, ineffective government policies, and a general lack of transparency about the real state of the economy.

Shelton’s message is a call to action for radical reforms and increased public awareness. She believes that restoring monetary integrity requires a fundamental shift in how we perceive money and the role of the Federal Reserve.

Holding the Fed accountable and demanding sound monetary policy, she argues, is essential for safeguarding the economic future of individuals and the nation as a whole.

Ultimately, Dr. Judy Shelton’s perspective offers a compelling challenge to the status quo, urging a critical re-evaluation of our monetary system and advocating for a return to principles of honesty, transparency, and stability in our currency.

Her call for a return to sound money is not just about economics; it’s about upholding fundamental principles of fairness and accountability that underpin a just and prosperous society.

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

BIG NEWS: SEC PLANS TO CUT 10 REGIONAL OFFICE LEADERS AS PART OF DOGE-DRIVEN COST-CUTTING PLAN

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) plans to remove the top leaders at its 10 regional offices as part of a broader cost-cutting initiative. As reported by Reuters, according to sources familiar with the matter, the SEC informed directors across these offices on Friday that their positions will be eliminated as part of a plan set to be submitted next month.

This move is part of a larger push for cost reductions under the Trump administration, which has been focused on purging federal agencies and cutting expenses. The SEC, which oversees the U.S. capital markets, is responding to pressure from President Donald Trump to reduce staff and expenses.

SEC leaders have been asked to suggest major budget cuts. As part of cost-cutting, a new department DOGE, led by Elon Musk is involved, and Musk has demanded federal employees list their recent accomplishments or risk being fired.

The decision to eliminate the regional directors, which requires approval from the three-person SEC commission, comes as the agency has already started scaling back its crypto enforcement efforts.

The SEC has offices from San Francisco to Miami, where officials lead investigations into public companies, brokers, and investment advisers. These directors play a crucial role in enforcement and examination decisions, making their removal a significant change within the agency.

 The reorganization plan will be submitted by SEC leaders, including Acting Chairman Mark Uyeda, and is expected to focus on restructuring operations to improve efficiency.

Reacting to the same, former SEC lawyer Marc Fagel said, “It’s almost like the head of DOGE, previously charged with securities fraud and currently the defendant in an ongoing SEC enforcement action, isn’t entirely free of conflicts in dismantling the SEC’s effectiveness.”

OHIO INTRODUCES BILL PREVENTING STATE TAXES ON CRYPTO PAYMENTS

The legislation also requires state pension funds to evaluate investing in crypto exchange-traded funds, and covers the right to self-custody and crypto mining.

Lawmakers in the US state of Ohio have introduced a bill that prohibits the state legislature from imposing taxes on digital assets when used as a payment method.

Ohio House Bill 116, introduced on Feb. 24 by Representative Steve Demetriou and co-sponsored by Tex Fischer, Brian Lorenz, Ty D. Mathews, Riordan McClain and Josh Williams, aims to amend existing legislation preventing municipalities from imposing extra taxes or fees on crypto assets beyond those applied to traditional fiat transactions.

“The general assembly shall not enact a bill that proposes to impose a fee, tax, assessment, or other charge on digital assets used as a method of payment for goods and services,” it reads.

The bill defines “digital assets” as cryptocurrencies, stablecoins and non-fungible tokens.  

The bill clarifies that taxes usually applied to legal tender, such as state or sales taxes, would still apply to crypto transactions, but there should be no new levies.

The “Ohio Blockchain Basics Act” also stated that no state agency or political subdivision may prohibit individuals from accepting crypto assets as payment for goods and services.

Right to self-custody, crypto mining

The bill also lets its residents retain the right to self-custody their digital assets using hardware or self-hosted wallets and partake in crypto staking.

Additionally, activities such as mining, staking, and exchanging crypto assets for other crypto assets do not require “money transmission” licensing under existing Ohio laws.

Individuals are also permitted to engage in crypto mining in residential areas if they comply with local zoning regulations. Meanwhile, mining businesses are explicitly allowed in industrial zones and cannot be unfairly targeted by local zoning changes.

Under the proposed legislation change, Ohio state retirement funds will also be required to evaluate the potential risks and benefits of investing in a crypto exchange-traded fund and report back to the General Assembly within a year.

Ohio representatives have been proactive with crypto-related bills in recent months. In September, Ohio Senator Niraj Antani introduced a bill requiring the state to accept cryptocurrency for payment of state taxes and fees.

In December, Ohio House Republican leader Derek Merrin introduced HB 703, aiming to establish a strategic Bitcoin reserve for the state.

Meanwhile, Ohio Senator Sandra O’Brien introduced another bill in February to create an “Ohio Bitcoin Reserve Fund,” with a five-year hodling period.

SOUTH DAKOTA FOLLOWS MONTANA'S LEAD, THROWS WATER ON BITCOIN RESERVE PLANS

While South Dakota lawmakers rejected the bill citing volatility concerns, Rep Logan Manhart plans to push for its revival next year.

South Dakota lawmakers dealt another blow to Bitcoin advocates on Monday when they voted to axe a bill that would have allowed the state to invest in Bitcoin.

In a key move, the House Commerce and Energy Committee voted 9-3 to defer HB1202 until the 41st day of the session, a procedural decision that effectively killed the bill, as the session concludes in no more than 40 days.

South Dakota’s decision follows a similar outcome in Montana, where lawmakers shot down a Bitcoin reserve bill in a 41-59 vote last week.

The proposal, introduced by State Representative Logan Manhart (R-S.D.), sought to permit the state to allocate up to 10% of its public funds into Bitcoin investments as a way to diversify its financial portfolio.

"It’s a commonsense update to South Dakota’s investment strategy by allowing a limited allocation of state funds into alternative assets that have consistently proven to preserve value, particularly in inflationary environments," Manhart said, as cited in the South Dakota Public Broadcasting report.

Matt Clark, South Dakota’s State Investment Officer, raised concerns about Bitcoin’s volatility and lack of intrinsic value.

Tishwash:  As the world's largest buyer of gold, Iraq ranks seventh

The World Gold Council announced today, Tuesday, that “Iraq ranked first among Arab countries in purchasing gold.”

He said in a statement, "The volume of Iraq's gold purchases in 2024 amounted to about 20.1 tons, and thus these reserves amount to 152 tons, while Iraq's gold purchases in 2023 were about 12.3 tons."

The council added, "Qatar came in second, followed by the UAE in third, Azerbaijan in fourth, China in fifth, and the Czech Republic in sixth."  link

Tishwash:  Urgent | Oil Minister: We look forward to resuming exports from Ceyhan within two days

Oil Minister Hayan Abdul Ghani confirmed today, Monday, the readiness of the export pipeline to the port of Ceyhan, while there are discussions with the Turkish side to resume exports within the next two days.

Abdul Ghani said in a press statement followed by “Iraq Observer”, “The ministry continues to export oil through the southern outlet in Basra port and Basra oil port.”

He added, "The ministry is now in discussions and correspondence with the Turkish side to resume exports," indicating that "once the Turkish side's approval arrives, exports will resume."

Abdul Ghani expressed his hope that “exports will resume within the next two days,” stressing that “the oil export pipeline to the Ceyhan oil port is ready, and there are some technical matters that need to be reorganized to resume exports.”

He stressed that "the agreed quantity for export through the Kurdistan Region, according to the budget law, ranges between 300 and 325 thousand barrels per day, part of which is used for local consumption, while the rest is exported."  link

**************

Tishwash:  After a "difficult labor", the 2025 budget tables finally find their way to the Council of Ministers

A responsible source in the Iraqi Ministry of Finance stated on Monday that the delay in sending the federal budget tables to the Council of Ministers is related to amendments to Article 12 of the Budget Law.

The Iraqi parliament recently approved an amendment to the general budget related to Article 12, which settles a dispute between the Kurdistan Region and the federal government over receiving the region’s oil.

In summary, the Iraqi Parliament voted in June 2023 on the draft general budget law for the fiscal years (2023, 2024, 2025), to approve special budget tables for those years, which will be sent by the Iraqi government to Parliament for voting.

The government source told Shafaq News Agency, "The Ministry of Finance has been working for some time on preparing the general budget tables for the year 2025, in order to send them to the Council of Ministers for approval."

He pointed out that "the Ministry of Finance will finish preparing the tables and send them to the Council of Ministers for voting on them in the middle of next month," noting that "the Council of Ministers will vote on the tables without delay and then send them to the House of Representatives for voting on them."

The Federal Ministry of Oil announced yesterday, Sunday, the completion of the necessary procedures to complete the export of oil produced in the Kurdistan Region via the Turkish port of Ceyhan, stressing that this step comes in accordance with the mechanisms specified in the budget law and its amendment, and within the production ceiling set for Iraq in the OPEC organization.

The Kurdistan Regional Government's negotiating delegation responded to the Ministry of Oil's announcement by calling on the federal government to implement its obligations before proceeding with the oil export process.

The delegation explained that despite the regional government’s confirmation of its commitment to implementing the first amendment law to the federal general budget law, which relates to re-exporting oil produced from the region’s fields to the Turkish port of Ceyhan via SOMO, implementing the law requires agreement on several basic points, including determining the quantities allocated for local consumption in the region, in line with actual needs, similar to the rest of Iraq, and establishing a clear and specific mechanism for paying the dues of production and transportation companies to the regional government, in accordance with what is stated in the law. link

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

BRICS: US DOLLAR FALLS FOR 3RD STRAIGHT WEEK FROM TRUMP TARIFFS

With a trade war brewing with the BRICS alliance, the US dollar has fallen for the 3rd straight week amid the ongoing Trump tariffs. Indeed, the country is beginning to see the effects of the ongoing import taxes as the currency struggled to end the week yet again.

All eyes are on how the global economy will react to the increased global tensions. Friday saw US President Donald Trump restate his threat towards the economic alliance. This time, he warned of 150% tariffs, as he further claimed that the bloc “broke up” amid the warning.

US Dollar Takes a Hit as Trump Tariff Hurts More Than Just BRICS

There have been growing concerns over US President Donald Trump’s economic policy. The aggressive nature of the plans has many worrying that it will only fast-track further de-dollarization. 

Indeed, what drove the nation to move away from the greenback, to begin with, was the weaponization of the global reserve asset. However, the current administration is seeking to do far worse than sanctions could.

Yet, it appears as though the continued threat of import taxes has begun to hinder the currency itself. Indeed, amid the BRICS opposition, the US dollar fell for the 3rd straight week amid the ongoing Trump tariffs, according to a Reuters report.

The fading value of the greenback has had an adverse reaction to the fast start of Trump’s second campaign. Specifically, his return to the Oval Office and the US dollar’s performance under his watch “has been mostly bluster on tariffs,” the report notes.

This is not a new phenomenon either. The greenback had been “struggling for traction in the past few weeks.” Moreover, in February alone, it has dropped more than 1.8%. Currently, the global reserve asset, is headed for its largest monthly drop since September.

The driving factor looks to be the ongoing tariff threat warnings. Although they have yet to be actualized, they are certainly taking their toll. With the US economy stagnating over geopolitical tensions, there is little interest for investors to increase dollar holdings, driving the fall.

THE ‘BITCOIN’ SENATOR TO CHAIR FIRST DIGITAL ASSET HEARING WEDNESDAY

It has been a long journey for Senator Cynthia Lummis (R-WY) as she champions Bitcoin and digital assets in Congress. Earning respect and acceptance both in the bitcoin community and the legislative arena takes time, but after four years, Lummis will finally assume the role of Chair of the newly established Digital Asset Subcommittee under the Senate Banking Committee.

This presents a historic opportunity as Congress moves toward passing comprehensive legislation on stablecoins and market structure, potentially within the next year.

However, Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), Lummis’ longtime co-sponsor on crypto legislation, does not serve on the Senate Banking Committee. Therefore, Lummis must garner support from Senate Democrats on the committee to advance bipartisan initiatives. 

Gillibrand, along with Lummis, has already co-sponsored Senator Bill Hagerty’s (R-TN) GENIUS Act, signaling her commitment to bridging political divides in the evolving regulatory landscape that would start with stablecoin legislation.

Witness Endorsement of an X Article “That Colossal Wreck”

Among the scheduled witnesses for the upcoming hearing is Jai Massari, Co-Founder and Chief Legal Officer of Lightspark. This past Friday, February 21, Massari endorsed an article on X calling for significant reform within the SEC that included calling out Democrats who previously led the SEC’s crypto regulation by enforcement efforts under the Biden Administration.

Austin Campbell, an Adjunct Professor at the NYU Stern School of Business, former and recently appointed as the CEO of WSPN, who has been a frequent witness in Congress and thought leader on crypto policy, with a tradfi background from Chase, Stone Ridge and JP Morgan Chase, has been a vocal critic of the SEC’s regulatory approach under the Biden Administration.

In his article mentioned above with respect to Massari’s endorsement, "That Colossal Wreck," Campbell revealed that a senior Democratic Party official had urged him to temper his rhetoric toward former SEC Chair Gary Gensler and others who were previously at the SEC. 

According to Campbell, he refused and then was inspired to lay out his vision of what he felt should happen to those who participated in the SEC over the last four years based on the damage caused by their policies.

"They should not be allowed to return to the government, allowed anywhere near the levers of power, and anyone in the Democratic party supporting, aiding, abetting, or directing them should be ejected immediately and roundly derided for this absolutely shameful chapter in US financial regulatory history," said Campbell.

Massari emphatically tweeted on X regarding Campbell’s article:

"This. All of this. Every word. @CampbellJAustin 🔥✅🏆 We must do better. Face the no good, very bad story and work to fix it. Caring about good government and institutions means taking a hard and clear-eyed look, particularly when it is not politically convenient."

While it is not yet known what Massari will testify on specifically as written testimony is not yet public, this message seems to underscore the need for cooperation and bipartisanship to forge meaningful and long-lasting crypto legislation in the U.S., regardless of the politics involved. 

Between what appears to be a softer tone on crypto in the Senate Banking Committee from Ranking Member Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and the drive by Chairman Tim Scott (R-SC) and the Republicans to pass stablecoin and possibly market structure legislation within the first 100 days of the Trump Administration, Massari and her other witnesses may spur on Congress toward historical, landmark laws for crypto in the U.S. that have been years in the making.

It is going to be a challenge for Lummis to make sure this new subcommittee can be effective. Her colleague across the aisle will be Ranking Member Ruben Gallego (D-AZ). 

Senator Gallego did vote last year when he was a Congressman for FIT21 in the House, as well as for the repeal of SAB 121, which according to industry ratings means he strongly supports crypto.

Details on the Witnesses and Hearing Information

Besides Massari, Mr. Jonathan Jachym, Deputy General Counsel and Global Head Of Policy & Government Relations for Kraken Digital Asset Exchange, will be testifying. Jachym just testified in the House. The third and final witness posted at this point is Mr. Lewis Cohen, Partner, Cahill Gordon & Reindel LLP. 

Cohen is one of the leading “crypto native” lawyers in the United States and advises clients on complex legal and regulatory matters related to blockchain, cryptocurrency, and tokenization across global capital markets. a witness.

The hearing can be viewed via livestream starting on Wednesday, February 26 at 2:30pm ET and will take place in Dirksen Senate Office Building 538.

ROBINHOOD SAYS SEC DROPPED CRYPTO INVESTIGATION, IN LATEST WITHDRAWAL

Today Robinhood announced that Robinhood Crypto was notified by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that the SEC would not be taking enforcement action. This follows the SEC issuing a Wells Notice last year warning of impending legal action relating to crypto custody, cryptocurrency listings and platform operations.

Under acting SEC Chair Mark Uyeda, several crypto related cases have been dropped or paused. It recently dropped the investigation into NFT platform OpenSea and on Friday Coinbase said its SEC court case would end, subject to Commissioner approval. Earlier this month the SEC paused its case against Binance.

Plus it withdrew its appeal in its attempt to expand the definition of brokers to include liquidity providers.

Back to Robinhood, “We applaud the staff’s decision to close this investigation with no action,” said Dan Gallagher, Chief Legal, Compliance and Corporate Affairs Officer, Robinhood Markets, Inc.

 “Let me be crystal clear—this investigation never should have been opened. Robinhood Crypto always has and will always respect federal securities laws and never allowed transactions in securities.” Mr Gallagher is himself a former SEC Commissioner.

The announcement highlighted that Robinhood Crypto had been careful in its approach, only listing 18 cryptocurrencies after thorough due diligence, as opposed to the hundreds listed by other platforms.

US Government Won’t Say if Fort Knox Gold is Missing

US Government Won’t Say if Fort Knox Gold is Missing

Mark Moss:  2-24-2025

For generations, Fort Knox has been synonymous with American financial security. We’ve been told it houses roughly $250 billion worth of gold bullion, a bedrock of stability for the U.S. dollar. But what if that foundation is built on shaky ground? What if the gold everyone believes is there… isn’t?

This isn’t some far-fetched conspiracy theory being whispered in the dark corners of the internet. The unsettling truth is that no independent audit of Fort Knox’s gold reserves has been conducted in over half a century. 

Think about that for a moment. Fifty years without a comprehensive, transparent accounting of assets supposedly underpinning our entire financial system.

The U.S. government consistently refuses independent audits, fueling speculation and distrust. They could easily silence the doubters, quell the rumors, and reassure the public by simply opening the vault and allowing a thorough examination. Yet, they refuse.

The last time outsiders were granted access was arguably more of a carefully orchestrated PR event than a genuine inspection. Politicians posed for photo opportunities with gold bars, but there was no rigorous inventory. No weighing of the bars. No verification of serial numbers. Just a fleeting glimpse designed to project an image of security, without actually providing any concrete proof.

So, the burning question remains: Why won’t the government definitively prove the gold is there? And what happens if it’s not? The implications could be catastrophic, potentially triggering a financial crisis of unprecedented scale.

But even if the gold is actually there, it raises another, equally important question: is it the quantity and quality we’ve been led to believe?

The official explanations often revolve around security concerns and the cost of undertaking such a massive audit. However, these justifications ring hollow. Modern technology allows for sophisticated non-invasive testing and accounting methods that minimize security risks. As for the cost, wouldn’t guaranteeing the stability of the U.S. financial system warrant the expense?

History teaches us a vital lesson: when governments shroud their actions in secrecy, the people ultimately bear the consequences. The mystery of Fort Knox demands answers.

Until those answers are provided, it’s crucial to remain vigilant and take proactive steps to safeguard your financial future. The time to prepare is now, before the truth – whatever it may be – is finally revealed.

GRAYSCALE'S XRP ETF UNDER SEC REVIEW—THE COUNTDOWN BEGINS

The SEC’s review of Grayscale’s XRP ETF is officially underway, sparking speculation that a crypto-friendly shift could lead to a groundbreaking approval.

SEC Begins Review of Grayscale’s XRP ETF Proposal

The Federal Register officially published Grayscale’s XRP exchange-traded fund (ETF) proposal on Feb. 20, 2025, marking the beginning of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) review process. Fox Business journalist Eleanor Terrett highlighted the significance of this step on social media platform X, stating:

Grayscale’s XRP ETF (19b-4 filing) has officially been posted to the Federal Register. All this means is that the clock starts now for the SEC to engage and either approve or deny on or before October 18.

The SEC follows a structured timeline when reviewing ETF proposals under the 19b-4 process. Initially, the agency has 45 days from publication to make a decision or extend the review.

 If an extension is granted, the SEC can push the deadline to 90 days. The commission can further extend the timeline, with additional review periods of 45 and 60 days, bringing the latest possible deadline to Oct. 18, 2025.

During this time, the SEC will solicit public comments, analyze market impact, and assess compliance with regulatory requirements. Approval could come at any stage, but historically, the SEC has taken the full timeline before issuing a final decision.

The filing, submitted by NYSE Arca, seeks to list and trade shares of the Grayscale XRP Trust under Rule 8.201-E, which governs commodity-based trust shares.

The securities regulator has already approved spot bitcoin ETFs and spot ether ETFs, paving the way for broader cryptocurrency investment products.

The departure of former SEC Chair Gary Gensler has further altered the agency’s stance, with his successor taking a more crypto-friendly approach. Under the new leadership, the SEC has paused or dropped multiple lawsuits against crypto firms, fueling speculation that Ripple’s ongoing legal battle could be the next case to be dismissed.

This change in regulatory climate has increased optimism that the XRP ETF may have a smoother path to approval compared to earlier crypto ETF applications.

With the publication in the Federal Register, the SEC will now open a public comment period before making a final decision on the Grayscale XRP ETF.

If approved, the fund would allow investors to trade the XRP ETF shares on a regulated exchange, potentially increasing market liquidity and accessibility for XRP. The crypto community is closely watching, as the SEC’s ruling could influence future cryptocurrency ETFs and broader digital asset adoption.

BRICS: US & RUSSIA TO ANNOUNCE “MAJOR ECONOMIC” PARTNERSHIP

Despite the growing tensions between both the BRICS economic alliance and the US, the Western power and Russia are reportedly nearing a “major economic” deal, according to US President Donald Trump. Indeed, Trump took to Truth Social to discuss ongoing negotiations with both Moscow and Ukraine to end the war amid its three-year anniversary.

In the post, Trump recalled a meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron and Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau that took place Monday.

 He noted that, amid hopes between the three of ending the war, he was nearing a signed “Critical Minerals and Rare Earth’s Deal” with Ukraine. Therefore, the President claims he is nearing a deal with both nations to end the ongoing military conflict.

US and Russia Nearing Economic Partnership as Trump Talks Negotiations to End Ukraine War

Since his November 2024 election win, Donald Trump has not been shy about his opposition to the BRICS bloc. Indeed, he has spoken about the imposition of 150% tariffs on the alliance as he seeks to protect the status of the US dollar globally. Yet, the United States commander-in-chief is reportedly nearing a massive deal with one of its most prominent nations.

Despite the growing BRICS tensions, the US and Russia are nearing a “major economic” partnership, according to US President Trump. In a post to Truth Social, he explained ongoing negotiations with both Moscow and Ukraine in his effort to end the war that he claimed would have never started if I was President.”

“I am in serious discussion with President Vladimir Putin of Russia concerning the ending of the war,” Trump said. Moreover, he also noted there will be “major Economic development transactions which will take place between the United States and Russia. Talks are proceeding very well,” he added.

The talks have been a byproduct of growing relations between the two countries. Just last week, Putin called for Russia to partner with Tesla CEO Elon Musk. Indeed, the world’s richest man has headed Trump’s DOGE commission and was key in his bid for reelection.

US GOLD INFLUX: SWISS EXPORTS SURGE TO UNPRECEDENTED LEVELS

In January, Swiss gold exports to the U.S. reached a record high of 193 metric tons, driven by fears of potential tariffs. This surge, exceeding the total for 2024, was triggered by a premium on Comex gold futures, creating a profitable opportunity for traders to deliver gold to U.S. warehouses.

Due to differing bar sizes between London and New York, gold is typically refined in Switzerland before being shipped to the U.S. This influx contributed to a significant increase in gold held in Comex depositories and a near doubling of Switzerland’s total gold exports.

News, Rumors and Opinions Monday 2-24-2025

DJ: DID YOU KNOW?

With the new administration making bold and sweeping changes, adapting the proper mindset will be crucial for the success of their efforts. Governmental policy changes, in particular, have profound effects on economies, businesses, and everyday citizens.

When the status quo is ineffective, change becomes necessary to address systemic flaws and inefficiencies. Learning to accept these changes requires an open mindset, adaptability, and a willingness to engage with civic processes.

 Change is an inevitable part of life, influencing individuals, organizations, and societies in various ways. While it often leads to growth and improvement, it can also bring uncertainty and resistance.

That being said we can look at current events, as related to a GCR/RV, two different ways. One way to view it is, as long as all these mass changes are being implemented it would make sense to throw the GCR/RV into the mix since the public is already establishing the mindset to adjust and accept these changes.

On the other hand, it also makes sense for these sweeping changes to take root and level out, to be operational, before throwing in a currency revaluation.

Either way preparing the mindset for the global public to accept systemic financial changes will be no easy task. Most will obviously benefit from the changes but as in all things that change there will be those who are comfortable with the status quo and resistant to leaving their comfort zones.

Even if the “status quo” is inefficient, it has been the world they have learned to live in. New learning curves are rarely something someone wants to engage in. (Think about every time you had to get used to a new phone).

As the U.S. goes, so goes the rest of the world. When the U.S. makes changes other nations have to adjust, in one way or another, to our policies. Sometimes good. Sometimes not so good. But either way they have to adapt.

First you have to build the boat. (The boat is all the mechanisms and systems required to implement the GCR). Then you have to see if the boat floats ( Is everything working?) Then you send the boat to sea to cross the oceans. The boat has been under construction for years and is ready to see if it floats.

Puts a whole different meaning to the cliché “whatever floats your boat” doesn’t it?  DJ

Audit Fort Knox Now: The Gold Currency Reset That Could Change Everything

Audit Fort Knox Now: The Gold Currency Reset That Could Change Everything

Awake-In-3D  February 22, 2025

Could missing gold at Fort Knox trigger a global currency overhaul? The future of the dollar hangs in the balance.

Could the contents of Fort Knox hold the key to the next global financial upheaval? Speculation is mounting that a long-overdue audit of America’s gold reserves could reveal unsettling truths—truths that might trigger a Gold Currency Reset and redefine the global economic landscape.

As questions swirl about whether the U.S. gold supply is truly intact, the stakes have never been higher. The outcome could either restore faith in the dollar or ignite a seismic shift that challenges the foundations of the international financial system.

The Gold Standard’s Legacy and the Foundation of Trust

The significance of U.S. gold reserves cannot be overstated. Until 1971, the U.S. dollar was directly tied to gold through the Bretton Woods system, with every dollar effectively backed by the nation’s physical gold holdings. This foundation made the dollar the linchpin of the global financial system, offering unparalleled stability and global trust.

However, the severing of the gold standard in 1971 fundamentally changed the landscape. Since then, the dollar has operated as a fiat currency, backed by the perceived strength of the U.S. economy rather than tangible assets. Despite this shift, gold reserves have remained a powerful symbol of national financial integrity and global confidence.

Today, the U.S. claims to hold approximately 8,133 tons of gold, with more than half allegedly secured at Fort Knox. Yet, doubts persist. Persistent rumors suggest that portions of these reserves were possibly sold off, leased, or otherwise diminished without public disclosure. If these suspicions prove true, the financial ramifications would trigger catastrophic consequences—potentially leading to the largest loss of confidence in U.S. financial history.

Opening the Vaults: A Defining Moment for Global Trust

The U.S. Treasury Secretary, Scott Bessent, has repeatedly assured the public that all gold reserves are intact, citing routine audits that allegedly verify the presence of America’s gold stockpile. A report from September 30, 2024, confirmed that these reserves remain accounted for, and senators are reportedly allowed to request inspections.

Yet, skepticism lingers. Why is there such a push for a public audit now? Why involve a figure as politically charged as former President Trump? These developments hint at deeper concerns within the political and financial establishment about global confidence in the dollar—and whether those fears might be justified.

If a comprehensive audit reveals missing or diminished reserves, the shockwaves would be felt worldwide. An empty or compromised Fort Knox would likely accelerate calls for a Gold Currency Reset, forcing nations to reevaluate their reliance on the U.S. dollar as the world’s primary reserve currency.

Gold’s Role in a Potential Global Currency Reset

A Gold Currency Reset is not just an economic theory—it’s a financial shift that many believe has been slowly building for years. Central banks across the world, particularly in China and Russia, have been amassing gold reserves in preparation for a possible transition away from a dollar-dominated system.

If the United States were found lacking in its own gold holdings, the repercussions would trigger a global financial realignment. Nations may seek to establish a new reserve currency backed by gold or a basket of stable assets. Such a move would dramatically reduce the U.S.’s influence on international financial markets and weaken its geopolitical leverage.

A discovery that Fort Knox’s vaults are empty—or even partially depleted—would be the spark that ignites this shift. Countries already wary of U.S. monetary policy, particularly the ongoing cycle of money printing and inflation, would likely take drastic measures to protect their economies from a potential dollar collapse.

The Revaluation of Currencies: Unlocking Hidden Wealth or Revealing Hidden Risk?

Beyond the potential for a currency reset, an audit would also force the United States to reevaluate the official value of its gold reserves. Currently, U.S. gold is still valued at a mere $42.22 per ounce on the Treasury’s balance sheet—a relic of an outdated system. Meanwhile, the market price of gold has surged toward $3,000 per ounce.

If the government were to revalue its gold reserves to reflect market realities, the implications would have enormous consequences. A revaluation would instantly increase the paper value of America’s gold holdings, potentially unlocking hundreds of billions of dollars to offset national debt or fund economic recovery efforts.

However, this strategy comes with risks. Revaluing gold would send a shock through global markets, causing other countries to follow suit. Such moves would dramatically alter currency exchange rates and destabilize financial markets in the short term. Worse still, if the audit revealed that U.S. gold reserves were lacking, any attempt at revaluation would likely backfire—accelerating a loss of faith in the dollar and pushing the global economy closer to a full-scale Gold Currency Reset.

What If the Vaults Are Empty? A Scenario with Global Consequences

The most unsettling scenario remains the possibility that the Fort Knox vaults are not as full as officials claim. If an audit reveals discrepancies, it would trigger the most significant monetary shift in U.S. history—surpassing even the collapse of Enron or the financial crisis of 2008.

Such a revelation would devastate global trust in the dollar, leading foreign governments and investors to dump U.S. Treasury bonds en masse. With foreign entities holding over $9 trillion in U.S. debt, a sudden selloff would crash bond markets, spike interest rates, and send the U.S. economy into a severe recession.

On the global stage, rivals like China and Russia would likely seize the opportunity to promote their own currencies—potentially backed by gold or other assets—as alternatives to the dollar. This shift would mark the beginning of a multipolar financial world, where the U.S. no longer holds the dominant economic position it has enjoyed since World War II.

The Road Ahead: Transparency as the Last Defense

As the world watches with bated breath, the pressure is mounting for full transparency. A comprehensive, independent audit of U.S. gold reserves would either reaffirm global confidence or expose vulnerabilities that would trigger unprecedented financial upheaval.

If the U.S. gold reserves are indeed intact, such verification would help stabilize markets, reinforce trust in the dollar, and delay or prevent the onset of a Gold Currency Reset. However, if the audit uncovers discrepancies, the financial system as we know it would be on the brink of a historic transformation.

In the end, gold remains more than a commodity—it is the ultimate symbol of trust in the global financial system. And as the world waits for the vaults of Fort Knox to open, one thing is clear: the results would determine not just the future of the U.S. dollar, but the fate of the entire global economy.

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

MONTANA JOINS GROWING LIST OF US STATES KNOCKING BACK BITCOIN RESERVE BILLS

Montana joins North Dakota, Wyoming, and Pennsylvania in halting proposals to include Bitcoin in state reserves.

Montana’s attempt to invest public funds in Bitcoin was thwarted on Friday when a piece of legislation failed to gain approval in the House of Representatives.

House Bill 429, introduced earlier this month by Representative Curtis Schomer, sought to create a special revenue account allowing up to $50 million to be allocated for crypto, stablecoins, and precious metals

The aim, according to Schomer, was to diversify the state’s assets and potentially provide higher returns than traditional bond investments.

Even though Bitcoin (BTC) was the only digital asset to meet the criteria set by the bill with $1.8 trillion in market cap, it encountered strong opposition from lawmakers, culminating in a 41-59 vote in the House.

Montana now joins a growing list of states that have rejected Bitcoin reserve proposals, including North Dakota, Wyoming, and Pennsylvania.

While Montana has opted for caution, the push for Bitcoin reserves is gaining momentum elsewhere, with several other states moving faster than the federal government to integrate cryptos into public finance.

Roughly 19 state proposals are still pending, as per Bitcoin Reserve Tracker data, including in Arizona, Illinois, Kentucky, Maryland, Oklahoma, New Hampshire, and Texas, among others.

Utah’s Blockchain and Digital Innovation Amendments bill, which allows the state treasurer to allocate up to 5% of public funds to digital assets, is still pending.

Arizona’s Senate Finance Committee has advanced a bill proposing to allow up to 10% of public funds, including pension systems, to be invested in crypto.

The bill now heads to the Senate Rules Committee for additional examination and, if greenlit, will proceed to the House of Representatives for further consideration.

Texas is also exploring two separate bills: one permitting up to 1% of the general revenue fund to be allocated to Bitcoin and another focused on Bitcoin donations and crypto payment conversions.

Meanwhile, countries such as Switzerland, Brazil, Japan, and Russia are also exploring the potential of using Bitcoin as part of their national reserve strategies.

GEORGIA INTRODUCES NEW BITCOIN RESERVE BILL

Yet another strategic Bitcoin reserve (SBR) bill has been submitted to the Georgia Senate.  Notably, the legislative effort (SB 228) was introduced by the Democrats.  The bill has emerged as a partisan competitor to the SBR bill that was put forward by the Republicans (SB 178) ten days ago.

Notably, the bill that was introduced by the Democrats has no investment limit. For comparison, the competing bill has a 5% cap.  Overall, more than 20 state-level SBR bills have now been introduced in the US.

Could $5,000 DOGE Stimulus Checks Really Happen?

Could $5,000 DOGE Stimulus Checks Really Happen? Here's What We Know.

Mike Snider, USA TODAY  Sat, February 22, 2025

Could President Trump issue DOGE stimulus checks? The idea of $5,000 refunds from the ongoing drive to reduce federal spending has been floated.

But don't add that bonus to your account just yet. That's because DOGE, the Department of Government Efficiency, ideally must meet its $2 trillion savings goal to make the kickback feasible. And that accomplishment is something even Elon Musk, the unofficial leader of DOGE, said may not be doable back in January.

Still, President Trump on Wednesday said the administration is considering giving 20% of "DOGE savings" to citizens. His comments came a day after Musk said he would confer with Trump about the idea.

Even if the idea of $5,000 stimulus checks evolves, Congress would need to approve a dispersal of funds to taxpayers. Here's what we know so far.

Where did the idea for $5,000 DOGE stimulus checks come from?

"Anti-woke" investor James Fishback, CEO and co-founder of Azoria Partners, suggested the idea on X on Feb. 14 and lobbied Musk on the idea of $5,000 checks – based on the $2 trillion in savings accrued from DOGE – leaving the rest to pay down the national debt.

"American taxpayers deserve a ‘DOGE Dividend’: 20% the money that DOGE saves should be sent back to hard-working Americans as a tax refund check. It was their money in the first place," Fishback posted.

"@ElonMusk, let’s do this! This is how we rebuild trust in our government," he said.

In discussing the possible dividend on CNN on Saturday, Fishback said, the potential for a check of up to $5,000 would "incentivize Americans to report waste, fraud and abuse in their own community. Why? Because the more that DOGE saves, the bigger their check will be."

How would $5,000 stimulus checks happen? Who would get them?

Back in 2020, Congress passed – and President Trump signed – a $2 trillion bipartisan stimulus package to address the economic struggles caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The package included $1,200 checks to qualifying individuals and $2,400 for most married couples filing jointly with an extra $500 for each qualifying child under age 17.

Those stimulus checks were sent to persons who had filed tax returns in the two previous years or received Social Security or veterans’ benefits.

Also included: funding for small business loans and grants, and additional weekly unemployment insurance payments.

What has President Trump said about DOGE dividend checks?
