Good Evening Dinar Recaps,
BRICS: BRAZIL REITERATES NEED TO END US DOLLAR, WILL 150% TARIFFS FOLLOW?
The ongoing tension between the global south and west has been a key matter of geopolitical uncertainty. That may only take a step forward as the BRICS 2025 president, Brazil, has reiterated its need to end the US dollar as 150% tariffs loom large over the nation.
Speaking on the alliance’s operations, Brazil president Luiz Inacio Lula Da Silva noted that the group will not cease its de-dollarization approach. However, that may come with steep consequences. Indeed, US President Donald Trump has warned that there will be import taxes levied on nations that he views are seeking to “destroy” the greenback.

BRICS: BRAZIL REITERATES NEED TO END US DOLLAR, WILL 150% TARIFFS FOLLOW?
The ongoing tension between the global south and west has been a key matter of geopolitical uncertainty. That may only take a step forward as the BRICS 2025 president, Brazil, has reiterated its need to end the US dollar as 150% tariffs loom large over the nation.
Speaking on the alliance’s operations, Brazil president Luiz Inacio Lula Da Silva noted that the group will not cease its de-dollarization approach. However, that may come with steep consequences. Indeed, US President Donald Trump has warned that there will be import taxes levied on nations that he views are seeking to “destroy” the greenback.
Brazil Re-Commited to Ditching the US Dollar: Will It Face Trump’s 150% Tariffs?
The BRICS economic alliance operates on a rotating chairmanship model. This means that the alliance will be under the guidance of a shifting presidency, with one nation taking the mantle at the start of the year. In 2025, it is Brazil that is taking that position, and it is already standing firm on what it expects of the bloc.
Amid the growing tension between BRICS and the United States, Brazil has reiterated its need to end the US dollar dominance despite 150% tariffs being threatened on such countries.
Earlier this year, the bloc rejected a BRICS currency plan. However, that hasn’t forced it to change its tone on the group’s relationship with the greenback.
“US President Donald Trump’s threats of tariffs won’t stop the group’s determination to seek alternative platforms for payments between member countries,” Brazil’s President said. Now, whether or not they face those promised Trump tariffs will depend on how the US President views the action.
Last week, Trump said, “‘Any BRICS state that even mentions the destruction of the dollar will be charged a 150% tariff.” The bloc has yet to claim to be seeking the greenback’s destruction. Therefore, will the pursuit of alternative payment methods trigger the tariff?
Moreover, is Brazil’s position opposing a BRICS currency freeing it from those threats? It certainly became the main focus of the geopolitical sector over the next several months

SEC DROPS LAWSUIT AGAINST KRAKEN, ENDING ‘POLITICALLY MOTIVATED CAMPAIGN’SEC DROPS LAWSUIT AGAINST KRAKEN, ENDING ‘POLITICALLY MOTIVATED CAMPAIGN’
The dropped lawsuit follows dismissals of other SEC lawsuits and investigations against other cryptocurrency companies like Coinbase and Gemini.
The US Securities and Exchange Commission has agreed to drop its lawsuit against Kraken, the cryptocurrency exchange revealed on March 3. The move ends what the exchange calls a “wasteful, politically motivated campaign” and “clears the path toward a stable, forward-thinking regulatory regime.”
According to Kraken, the lawsuit is being dismissed with prejudice, with no admission of wrongdoing, no penalties paid, and no changes to Kraken’s business. The SEC sued Kraken in November 2023, alleging that the exchange acted as a broker, dealer, exchange and clearing agency without registering with the SEC.
The SEC, under Gary Gensler’s leadership, was prone to a policy of regulation by enforcement, suing or investigating crypto companies, such as Coinbase, Uniswap and non-fungible marketplace OpenSea, for a variety of reasons. This approach was widely criticized in the industry for stifling innovation, targeting legitimate crypto companies instead of going after bad actors and more.
The SEC’s latest actions may reflect the changing environment of the US government regarding crypto. Kraken writes about its case, “This case was never about protecting investors — it and other enforcement actions clouded instead of clarified. It undermined a nascent industry that repeatedly urged clear rules of the road.”
A shifting regulatory climate
Since the change in SEC leadership, the agency has dismissed or is rumored to drop various lawsuits and investigations that began during Gensler’s tenure. On Feb. 27, it dismissed its lawsuit against Coinbase. Previously, it had dropped lawsuits or investigations against Consensys, Uniswap, OpenSea, Gemini and Robinhood.
The moves come as the US is shaping up for increased regulatory clarity surrounding digital assets. On Feb. 7, US lawmakers introduced a stablecoin bill to boost dollar dominance. It is possible that lawmakers may introduce a general crypto regulation bill that is a stronger version of FIT21.
In addition, there are further tailwinds: US President Donald Trump, who has said he wants to make the US the “world capital of crypto,” has announced plans for a crypto strategic reserve consisting of BTC, ETH, XRP, SOL and ADA. The president will be hosting the first White House Crypto Summit on March 7.

HESTER PEIRCE ANNOUNCES SEC’S NEW CRYPTO TASK FORCE AMID POLICY SHIFT
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has officially released the list of members for its Crypto Task Force, which brings together advisors from key divisions.
This follows a memo published by Commissioner Hester Peirce on March 3 on the official SEC website. According to the memo, the task force consists of staff from Acting Chairman Mark Uyeda’s office, along with representatives from multiple divisions within the agency.
Peirce highlighted the team’s experience and commitment to addressing complex crypto regulatory challenges, stating that the Crypto Task Force is composed of knowledgeable and dedicated staff focused on developing practical regulatory solutions for the industry.
She also emphasized that the team would collaborate with other SEC experts and engage with the public to shape effective crypto regulations.
SEC’s new crypto-focused team
The task force includes Richard Gabbert as Chief of Staff, Michael Selig as Chief Counsel, and Taylor Asher as Chief Policy Advisor. Additional members include Sumeera Younis (Chief of Operations), Landon Zinda (Senior Advisor), and multiple senior advisors such as Donald Battle, Bernard Nolan, and Laura Powell.
Peirce has long been an advocate for clear and fair regulations in the crypto sector. Her latest initiative follows ongoing calls from industry leaders for more regulatory clarity.
This development aligns with a broader trend within the SEC to reevaluate its stance on cryptocurrency oversight. Under the previous administration, the agency intensified enforcement actions against crypto firms, imposing significant penalties.
For instance, in 2024 alone, the agency imposed fines totaling $4.68 billion on crypto businesses, accounting for 68% of its lifetime penalties in this sector.
However, recent months have seen a notable shift. The SEC has closed investigations into several prominent crypto entities, including Gemini, Coinbase, OpenSea, Uniswap Labs, Robinhood Crypto, Consensys, and lately Kraken. This move suggests a more lenient regulatory approach under the current administration.

LAWMAKERS LAUNCH BIPARTISAN CONGRESSIONAL CRYPTO CAUCUS FOLLOWING TRUMP BITCOIN PUSH
The first of its kind group will allow pro-industry lawmakers to vote as a bloc on key legislation.
House Majority Whip Tom Emmer (R-MN) announced the creation of the first ever congressional crypto caucus on Monday, which he says will allow pro-industry lawmakers to vote as a unified bloc on pertinent legislation.
The move comes just a day after President Donald Trump announced he's directed the Presidential Working Group to "move forward" with plans to establish a "crypto strategic reserve"—a federal stockpile of state-owned digital assets—which would include Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Cardano, and XRP.
Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,
LAWMAKERS LAUNCH BIPARTISAN CONGRESSIONAL CRYPTO CAUCUS FOLLOWING TRUMP BITCOIN PUSH
The first of its kind group will allow pro-industry lawmakers to vote as a bloc on key legislation.
House Majority Whip Tom Emmer (R-MN) announced the creation of the first ever congressional crypto caucus on Monday, which he says will allow pro-industry lawmakers to vote as a unified bloc on pertinent legislation.
The move comes just a day after President Donald Trump announced he's directed the Presidential Working Group to "move forward" with plans to establish a "crypto strategic reserve"—a federal stockpile of state-owned digital assets—which would include Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Cardano, and XRP.
The caucus appears to be a bipartisan effort, led both by Emmer—a staunch crypto advocate—and Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-NY), one of the industry’s most vocal Democratic allies.
In a post to X on Monday morning, Emmer characterized the caucus as “a nonpartisan group of members ready to mobilize to support and defend open, permissionless, and private innovation in the United States.”
The inclusion of the term “private” in that definition would seem to be an attempt to smother any notion that as the U.S. government gets more involved in crypto, it might seek to develop technologies like a central bank digital currency, or CBDC.
Major foreign bodies like the European Union have pushed ahead in developing digital currencies in recent weeks. President Donald Trump, on the other hand, moved to ban the creation of an American CBDC days after retaking the White House. Republicans have, for years, claimed that CBDCs would pose an existential risk to financial privacy.
Decrypt reached out to Emmer’s office regarding the House crypto caucus’ top priorities and the potential initial size of its membership but did not immediately receive a response.
House caucuses are formally organized groups of lawmakers who meet to pursue shared legislative objectives and tend to vote in blocs on key issues.
Dozens of such groups currently meet on Capitol Hill. They are shaped around identity groups (Congressional Black Caucus); ideological leanings (Congressional Progressive Caucus); foreign policy (Congressional Friends of Denmark Caucus); and, in many cases, industry representation (see: Congressional Cranberry Caucus, Chicken Caucus, and Natural Gas Caucus).
While crypto has notched a slew of high profile political victories in recent weeks—from the dismissal of key lawsuits targeting industry leaders, to Trump’s doubling down on a controversial federal crypto stockpile—the somewhat less flashy announcement of an industry caucus nonetheless brings the sector one step closer to more permanent status as a mainstay special interest group in Washington.
After years of extreme political volatility for crypto that have reaped both the lowest of lows and highest of highs, perhaps becoming a household staple akin to chicken or cranberries isn’t so unappealing.

BRICS REACTS TO TRUMP & ZELENSKY’S WHITE HOUSE HUMILIATION
Trump and Zelensky’s White House interaction has taken the world by storm as the dirty laundry was washed in public. The war of words turned cinema as both leaders indulged in sharp criticism.
In the aftermath of the show, the minerals deal, which Zelensky visited the US was rejected by Trump. However, the Ukrainian President said that he is open to signing the deal if the US agrees to move forward. BRICS member Brazil has reacted to the Trump-Zelensky fight and came down hard on the US President.
BRICS: Brazil Reacts to Trump-Zelensky’s War of Words
Brazilian President Luiz Lula da Silva, who will chair the upcoming BRICS summit, reacted to Trump and Zelensky’s White House war. He sharply criticized the way Trump treated Zelensky in front of reporters and other dignitaries. Lula da Silva called Trump’s attitude “grotesque and disrespectful,” against Zelensky. Additionally, he added that the US President “humiliated” Zelensky for no reason as he visited the US to discuss the minerals deal.
“I have never seen a scene as grotesque and disrespectful as the one that took place in the Oval Office of the White House. I sincerely believe that part of society thrives on disrespecting others. And it is not possible to speak of democracy if there is no respect for other human beings.
I think Zelensky was hamulated; in Trump’s mind, he probably deserved it. I think the European Union was harmed by the American speech,” said the Brazilian President who will chair the 17th BRICS summit.
Trump’s stance against Ukraine is alienating Europe as the European Union (EU) wants to hold Russia accountable for the war. BRICS member China is making use of the tensions and is extending cordial relations with Europe. Moreover, many European countries are looking to increase business deals with China as negotiating with the US has become increasingly difficult.

CONTROVERSIAL IRS CRYPTO REPORTING REGULATION
Lawmakers, including Senator Ted Cruz and Cynthia Lummis, have introduced a resolution to overturn the IRS rule, with a vote expected this week.
▪The US Senate is set to vote on an IRS rule requiring crypto brokers to report detailed transaction data, a move that has sparked controversy in the industry.
▪Critics argue that the tax reporting mandate could stifle DeFi innovation, leading to legal challenges and calls for its repeal.
▪Lawmakers will also review a separate Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) regulation that affects digital payment apps.
The US Senate is preparing to vote on a controversial IRS regulation requiring “brokers” to report gross proceeds, cost basis, and gains or losses from digital asset transactions, including cryptocurrency, stablecoins, and non-fungible tokens (NFTs).
The law, formally introduced in December 2024 and enacted in January 2025, has faced strong opposition from the crypto community. Critics argue that the regulation threatens the growth and innovation of the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector, leading to a lawsuit challenging its implementation.
Lawmakers Push for Repeal
While the legal battle continues, Senator Ted Cruz, alongside Senators Cynthia Lummis, Pete Ricketts, and others, has taken legislative action to challenge the rule, according to a CoinDesk report on Monday, citing sources familiar with the matter.
The lawmakers have introduced a joint resolution urging the repeal of the IRS regulation. A source close to the matter revealed that Congress is expected to vote on the resolution this week, a decision that could determine the rule’s future.
The Congress has the power to challenge and potentially overturn unfavourable new laws enacted by government agencies under the Congressional Review Act (CRA).
In addition to the IRS measure, Congress is also set to review what CoinDesk described as an “11th-hour regulation” from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), which impacts digital payment applications.
Donald Trump Finally Adds Crypto to National Reserve
The previous administration introduced both rules in an attempt to curb innovation within the crypto sector. In 2024, the then-US president signed an executive order directing the government to assess the risks and benefits of cryptocurrencies.
The measures targeted six key areas: consumer protection, financial stability, illicit activity, US competitiveness, financial inclusion, and responsible innovation. However, despite these efforts, the industry remained without clear regulatory guidance during his tenure.
In contrast, the current administration is taking steps to establish a well-defined regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies in the US.
Last month, President Donald Trump issued an executive order instructing federal agencies to review existing laws and create a clear regulatory structure for digital assets and related services. Agencies such as the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and the Department of Justice (DOJ) have been given 30 days, starting January 23, 2025, to carry out this directive.
Beyond regulatory reforms, Trump has pledged to position the US as the “world crypto capital,” aiming to lead in regulation, innovation, and technological advancements within the sector.
On Sunday, Trump officially unveiled the long-anticipated crypto reserve, incorporating major digital assets like XRP, SOL, and ADA. He emphasized that Bitcoin and Ethereum would be the “heart of the reserve,” reaffirming his strong support for the top two cryptocurrencies.

New York Fed GOLD Vault! Your Gold & Silver Investment is About to Become Priceless - EB Tucker
New York Fed GOLD Vault! Your Gold & Silver Investment is About to Become Priceless - EB Tucker
Money Sense: 3-3-2025
A potential gold revaluation presents a unique, non-default pathway for managing the United States surging national debt.
The discussion extends beyond simple market pricing, with central banks showing renewed interest in physical gold and a global trend toward repatriating tangible assets.
EB Tucker explains that if gold reaches 4,000 dollars per ounce, US reserves would be worth 27 trillion dollars —about half the US stock market's valuation.
New York Fed GOLD Vault! Your Gold & Silver Investment is About to Become Priceless - EB Tucker
Money Sense: 3-3-2025
A potential gold revaluation presents a unique, non-default pathway for managing the United States surging national debt.
The discussion extends beyond simple market pricing, with central banks showing renewed interest in physical gold and a global trend toward repatriating tangible assets.
EB Tucker explains that if gold reaches 4,000 dollars per ounce, US reserves would be worth 27 trillion dollars —about half the US stock market's valuation.
He highlights that stocks are a uniquely American asset, contrasting them with the London Stock Exchange, which struggles to retain major companies. It took gold a decade to appreciate from 2,000 to 3,000 dollars, and according to our charts, the market is behaving similarly to 2011, a peak that lasted a decade.
Thus, moving from 3,000 to 4,000 dollars might take another decade. If so, the interest payments on an equivalent amount of debt would roughly wipe out the price gain.
Reflecting on his personal experience, Tucker recalls visiting the New York Fed gold vault in 2001. He notes that institutional investors avoid physical gold, preferring futures and contracts since physical metal is lately seen as "dead money" that doesn't generate returns.
However, recent developments have raised concerns over the accuracy and transparency of these reserves. Speculation about potential shortages or overstatements in US gold reserves could significantly impact financial markets, inflation expectations, and investor sentiment.
However, Tucker emphasizes JP Morgan's near silver crisis due to the Wall Street Silver movement. He explains that institutions avoid holding physical metals, preferring to lease gold and create complex financial instruments.
Recently, gold deliveries on the COMEX have reached record levels, a clear indicator of the explosion in demand for physical gold. This phenomenon could create a snowball effect, prompting other major institutions and central banks to step up their delivery demands, putting further pressure on the system as a whole.
Looking at major fundamentals, EB Tucker argues that gold's price movements over the past few years were due to a well-managed, financialized market rather than external factors like tariffs. He explains that large-scale futures trading was used to control price volatility, but recent declines in futures volume indicate a shift in market dynamics.
Strength in gold earlier this month is linked to increased safe-haven demand, increasing expectations of accelerated Federal Reserve interest rate cuts, and growing inflows into gold-backed exchange-traded funds.
Since December, over 600 tons of gold have been transferred to New York City vaults, according to the World Gold Council.
Gold has not been a direct target of tariffs, but market reactions to trade uncertainty have driven a significant shift in trading behavior and impacted the gold price.
The movement of gold from London to the US, rising COMEX premiums, and concerns over availability were largely the result of risk management decisions rather than true supply issues.

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,
RIPPLE UNLOCKS 1B XRP AS TRUMP ADDS IT TO US CRYPTO RESERVE, PRICE JUMPS 30%
▪Ripple unlocked 1 billion XRP on March 3, but re-locked 700 million tokens into escrow after Trump's crypto reserve announcement.
▪Whale Alert reported major XRP movements, with 500 million XRP sent to two different wallets.
▪XRP’s price hit $2.60 but faces resistance at $3; if it breaks through, the next target could be $3.40, its January high.
As part of the monthly release of 1 billion XRP tokens, Ripple unlocked another 1 billion XRP on the 3rd of March before re-locking the 700 million XRP tokens into an escrow wallet.
This came after U.S. President Donald Trump announced on Truth Social that select cryptocurrencies, including XRP, were added to the new U.S. Crypto Strategic Reserves. Following this news, XRP, the third-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, surged 30% in a day, reaching a market cap of $150 billion.
Could this endorsement bring in more institutional investors and fuel an even bigger rally? Let’s dive into the details.
XRP On the Move!
On March 3, blockchain tracker Whale Alert reported the release of 1 billion XRP from Ripple’s escrow accounts, worth around $2.6 billion in multiple transactions. The first 500 million XRP was sent in two batches 100 million first, followed by 400 million to the wallet ‘rGKHD…2Bdh.’
However, a few minutes later, another 500 million XRP was sent in a single transaction to the wallet ‘rHGfm…sbQr.’
Ripple unlocks XRP every month, but this time, the release gained more attention due to Trump’s announcement. Many believe that adding XRP to the U.S. Crypto Reserve could bring in more big investors and boost its price.
700 Million XRP Locked Back in Escrow
Despite unlocking 1 billion XRP, Ripple did not release all of it into the market. Instead, 700 million XRP was locked back into escrow. Here’s how the distribution played out:
First wallet: Received 500 million XRP but has not moved it yet. Previously, it sent 300 million to another wallet on March 1 and locked back 200 million.
Second wallet: Received 500 million XRP but quickly moved the same amount to another Ripple wallet, which then locked it back in escrow.
If Ripple follows its usual monthly pattern, another 100 million XRP might be locked, leaving only 200 million XRP in circulation.
XRP Price Jumps but Faces Resistance
Following these events, XRP’s price surged 17%, reaching $2.60 at the time of writing. In the past 24 hours, it has gained 30%, pushing its market cap to $150 billion.
However, technical indicators suggest that XRP is now facing resistance at the $3 level, which could slow down its rally. If buyers break past this level, the next target could be $3.40, its January high.
XRP’s bullish surge signals growing confidence—whether it can sustain this momentum is the real question.

TOKENIZATION CAN TRANSFORM REAL ESTATE INVESTING — POLYGON CEO
Tokenizing real estate and overhauling property investment markets has its challenges but is a killer use case for blockchain technology.
Real-world asset (RWA) tokenization can completely overhaul the real estate investment sector, which is highly illiquid, filled with intermediaries, and high transaction costs, according to Polygon CEO Mark Boiron.
In an interview with Cointelegraph, the CEO said that tokenization of properties could remove unnecessary intermediaries, thereby lowering transaction costs.
The CEO added that fractional ownership and trading tokenized real estate on the secondary markets would open up liquidity and increase the velocity of money. Boiron told Cointelegraph:
"The thing you really want is the ability to eliminate the illiquidity discount on real estate. All real estate is illiquid and therefore it's discounted to some degree. It can be more valuable if it's liquid."
Lumia Towers, an ongoing $220 million commercial real estate development in Istanbul, Turkey, featuring two skyscrapers with 300 mixed-use commercial and residential units, used Polygon's technology to tokenize the project.
Boiron said that the future of real estate is onchain. However, regulators must be comfortable with blockchain technology and public permissionless systems before tokenized real estate becomes the de facto standard.
In the United States, Quarter offers tokenized alternatives to debt-based home mortgages to increase levels of home ownership and make it more affordable to aspiring home buyers.
The company achieves this by assigning fractionalized equity rights to both the property investor and the prospective home buyer, which can be sold — deviating from the traditional debt-based mortgage financing that is the current standard in many jurisdictions.
In February 2025, real estate platform Blocksquare launched a real estate tokenization framework for the European Union that allows equity rights to be assigned and transferred onchain.
Real estate asset tokenization is gaining popularity in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in what has become one of the hottest real estate markets in the world.
According to Tokinvest founder and CEO Scott Thiel, property developers in the UAE are scrambling to tokenize their projects as an alternative means to traditional financing structures.
Stablecoin issuer Tether also partnered with real estate platform Reelly Tech in February 2025 to expand the use of USDt in real estate transactions in the UAE.

Sun. 2 March 2025: Trump and Musk’s DOGE investigation will be auditing Fort Knox and answering questions that could bring down the Deepstate: Is there any gold left in Fort Knox? If not, WHO stole it and WHERE did it go? Does a SECRET TUNNEL connect the Fed and JP Morgan’s vaults? Has the Federal Reserve been LYING about its gold reserves?

Sun. March 2 2025 DOGE Investigation Government Waste
Elon Musk just exposed what he calls the “biggest scam” in U.S. history during his viral appearance on episode #2281 of The Joe Rogan Experience. The focus of the conversation was government waste—and Musk had plenty to say. Musk quickly dropped a shocker when he revealed that the government handed the Navy $12 billion to build new submarines—and not a single submarine was built. When lawmakers asked where the money went, Navy officials shrugged and said they had no idea—a revelation Musk heard firsthand from Senator Susan Collins (R-Maine). “There’s a case where I think Senator Collins was telling me about how she gave the Navy $12 billion for more submarines, got no extra submarines, and then held a hearing to say where the $12 billion go. And they were like, we don’t know. That was it. I mean, basically, stuff is so crazy. Only the federal government could get away with this level of waste,” Musk said.

FRANK: I love your attitude these last few days buddy! IMO the Iraqi dinar is soon to swallow the Kuwait currency let alone all of the currencies in the Middle East and possibly in the world.
Fnu Lnu Question: "How do you see this impacting the physical dinar we hold?" The Iraqi Dinar will always be a paper currency needed...for domestic commerce. The Iraqi Dinar will be electronic at the same time just like the USD ie: credit cards, debit cards, however, there will be a necessity for cross-border payments and receipts. If Iraq wants to buy dates from Italy, they must pay for them but how? Cross border payment...Iraq is being schooled right now on digital currencies and how to use them. The IQD will never be replaced with a crypto currency as the crypto will be used for cross-border payments only...The new digital currency is not made to replace the IQD, it is made to make it work more efficiently. I believe, this is how we will be paid for the RV...The IQD will not be stored in our reserves...This is all going to be unnecessary in the future world of FinTec...This is also why I believe the RV is taking so long and Iraq is stalling with all their lame excuses that are illogical and do not make sense. That is my opinion based on the fact that K2 and Wyman are there now, schooling them on cross-border payments which is a known fact.

Tishwash: Mazhar Saleh: Geopolitical controls push towards shifting to official channels for currency trading
Mazhar Muhammad Salih, the financial advisor to the Prime Minister, confirmed that the geopolitical controls imposed on informal trade contribute to expanding dealings with official outlets for foreign currency, which contributes to financing foreign trade through the sound international financial system.
He pointed out in his statement to {Euphrates News} that "this shift aims to move away from informal financing from the parallel dollar market intensively, especially with the change in the behavior of small traders in avoiding the parallel market linked to the countries' regional and geopolitical problems."

He also stressed that the end of the compliance platform phase adopted by the Central Bank of Iraq in the past two years and the country's entry into a new phase has contributed to providing great flexibility in financial transfers through official channels. link

WHITE HOUSE CRYPTO CZAR CONFIRMS US TO ESTABLISH RESERVE WITH BITCOIN AND OTHER TOP CRYPTOCURRENCIES

WHITE HOUSE CRYPTO CZAR CONFIRMS US TO ESTABLISH RESERVE WITH BITCOIN AND OTHER TOP CRYPTOCURRENCIES
White House Crypto Czar David Sacks has endorsed President Donald Trump’s U.S. Crypto Strategic Reserve, highlighting its inclusion of bitcoin and other top cryptocurrencies to position the U.S. as a global leader.
Trump’s US Crypto Strategic Reserve Sparks Industry Buzz
David Sacks, the White House AI and crypto czar, has expressed support for President Donald Trump’s announcement of a U.S. crypto strategic reserve. In a post on social media platform X, Sacks stated:
"President Trump has announced a Crypto Strategic Reserve consisting of bitcoin and other top cryptocurrencies. This is consistent with his week-one E.O. 14178. President Trump is keeping his promise to make the U.S. the ‘Crypto Capital of the World.’ More to come at the Summit."
On March 2, President Trump outlined the composition and goals of a proposed U.S. crypto reserve on Truth Social. He claimed the initiative would revitalize the cryptocurrency sector, which he said was harmed under the Biden administration.
Trump stated that his executive order on digital assets directed the Presidential Working Group to develop a Crypto Strategic Reserve, including XRP, SOL, and ADA, aiming to position the U.S. as a global leader in crypto.
In a follow-up post, he confirmed that BTC and ETH would be central to the reserve, expressing support for bitcoin and ethereum. His statements indicate a push to integrate major cryptocurrencies into national financial policy.
Historically, President Trump’s stance on cryptocurrencies has evolved. Initially skeptical, he has recently adopted a more supportive position, aligning with his promise to establish the U.S. as a hub for cryptocurrency innovation. The issuance of Executive Order 14178 reflects this commitment, directing federal agencies to develop frameworks that support digital asset integration and regulation.
Sacks also announced on Feb. 28 plans for a significant industry event, stating on X: “President Trump will host the first White House Crypto Summit on Friday, March 7. Attendees will include prominent founders, CEOs, and investors from the crypto industry. Look forward to seeing everyone there!”
The summit is expected to facilitate dialogue between the administration and key stakeholders, further solidifying the U.S.’s leadership role in the global cryptocurrency landscape.

INSIDE THE WHITE HOUSE CRYPTO SUMMIT: TRUMP TO LEAD TALKS WITH 25 KEY GUESTS
This Friday, March 7th, marks the first-ever White House Crypto Summit, a key event that aims to shape the future of cryptocurrency policy in the U.S. According to Fox Business, the summit is part of a series designed to replace the previously proposed Crypto Advisory Council, giving the President’s Working Group on Digital Assets a chance to collaborate directly with the crypto industry on key issues.
“The White House announced today that President Trump will host and deliver remarks at the first ever White House Crypto Summit on Friday, March 7. Attendees will include prominent founders, CEOs, and investors from the crypto industry, as well as members of the President’s Working Group on Digital Assets,” the press release stated.
Around 25 invitees are expected to attend the summit, though the guest list is still under wraps. It’s anticipated that more details on who will be present will be released soon.
Some important figures, like David Sacks (the White House’s crypto czar) and Bo Hines, are expected to be involved, which signals a positive direction for crypto legislation and future policy clarity.
The shift from a formal advisory council to these summits suggests a more flexible approach to policymaking, allowing for direct engagement with industry leaders. This is seen as a step in the right direction for crypto, offering a clearer path forward and showcasing the government’s growing support for the industry.
The White House crypto summit is expected to spark important discussions that could influence future legislation and solidify the role of crypto in the U.S. economy. As crypto continues to gain mainstream acceptance, this summit is a strong signal that the government is committed to ensuring its place in the financial landscape.

DE-DOLLARIZATION: GLOBAL BANK PREDICTS FUTURE OF THE US DOLLAR
Despite de-dollarization, the US dollar rebounded in price as the DXY index, which measures its performance climbed above the 107 mark. The DXY index is now trading at the 107.40 level after surging 0.15% on Friday. The US treasury yields rose this month making the greenback strengthen in the charts. The move pushed gold prices below the $2,900 range making the XAU/USD index trade at $2,860 on Friday’s opening bell.
Leading investment bank Goldman Sachs predicted the future of the US dollar as de-dollarization looms. The global bank weighed the pros and cons of the currency markets and wrote in the latest note to stakeholders that the greenback will make a comeback.
Goldman Sachs Predicts the Future of the US Dollar Amid De-Dollarization
Global investment bank Goldman Sachs wrote in a note that the US dollar could get a boost despite de-dollarization as Trump’s tariffs could uplift the greenback. Goldman Sachs strategists Karen Reichgott Fishman and Lexi Kanter wrote that the US dollar looks attractive due to the tariffs.
Trump has vowed to protect the US dollar amid the onslaught of the de-dollarization agenda kick-started by developing nations. “Ultimately, not all tariffs are equal when it comes to FX,” the strategists wrote in a note. “But given the unwind of premium in key crosses in recent weeks, we once again think tariff risks look underpriced, making long dollar exposure now look even more attractive.”
Therefore, currency investors can take long positions in the US dollar now as its prospects look “more attractive”. Local currencies are under pressure due to tariffs and the USD is coming out on top. The Indian rupee has fallen to a lifetime low while the Chinese yuan and the Japanese yen have dipped to yearly lows. The development indicates that tariffs are working against de-dollarization and placing the US dollar on top.

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.

Ariel Thoughts on the RV
IMO: it's almost like I have been telling people that the revaluation of the Iraqi Dinar is for the 'New Republic' that basically starts on March 4th with an address from the president on that day with Kurdistan & Baghdad signing remaining paperwork and resuming oil exports through SOMO.
Why out of all these years you have been waiting that they decided to have this meeting on the exact day of the original inauguration day? Why do you think Donald Trump is closing 100s of IRS offices? Because he doesn't want your capital gains going towards an agency that will not exist after 2025. I told you all and I will say it again D. Trump is going to put his foot down on March 4th.
After that day you might as well prepare for the fallout. Because it's going to come fast. Corruption will be boxed in and have no choice but to show itself for the beast it is. And as I explained once the IQD reinstatement occurs Israel will become a shell of its former self. Peace in the Middle East will expose the domestic terrorist in our media, government, and banking industry.
Regarding the rate change. Will it be immediate? Unlikely. The CBI would need time to evaluate oil revenue projections and consult with the government, which has previously locked rates for multi-year periods (e.g., until 2025 per a 2021 parliamentary statement).
A decision might take days to weeks, with an announcement possibly delayed to mid-March or later to ensure data alignment. That said, if political momentum from the meeting is strong and Trump’s rhetoric signals U.S. support Iraq could expedite the process, perhaps signaling intent within days (e.g., March 5-7) and formalizing it later.
In short, I’d expect a new exchange rate release to follow days to a couple of weeks after March 4, not immediately, as Iraq balances oil-driven economic gains with currency stability needs. Keep an eye on CBI statements and parallel market trends post-meeting for clues. What are your thoughts on how these pieces might fit together?
I just love that it will be on or after March 4th because we will get to keep our money. Because once they resume there is no going back after that. And we will have our ROI.

Iraq BREAKING NEWS: Heads Up Changes Happening in Iraq - Former Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa al-Kadhimi has returned to Baghdad for the first time in over two years, despite ongoing security threats. After surviving an assassination attempt in 2021 and leaving office in 2022, al-Kadhimi has been living in London and the UAE.
His return comes amid a worsening Iraq financial crisis, increasing political tensions, and upcoming Iraq elections 2025. During his tenure, al-Kadhimi played a crucial role in Iran-Saudi Arabia relations, hosting talks that led to the restoration of diplomatic ties between the two regional rivals.

Baghdad (IraqiNews.com) – The Governor of the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI), Ali Al-Alaq, revealed on Wednesday that the bank is planning to create a digital currency to replace paper notes in transactions with central banks.
During his speech in the 9th edition of the Iraq Finance Expo, Al-Alaq said that fundamental changes will take place in the banking and financial systems, including the limited use of paper notes as they will be replaced by digital currencies in transactions between central banks.
Iraq is seriously examining establishing a data center, according to Al-Alaq, and the CBI has started working on this project as part of the digital transformation process.
Al-Alaq also indicated that Iraq’s financial inclusion rate increased to over 40 percent compared to 20 percent three years ago due to the CBI’s promotion of mobile phone-based electronic wallets that enable bill payment and money transfer.
Over 4,000 ATMs have been installed, and there are roughly 17 million bank cards in use, according to Al-Alaq, and there are now 1.2 million electronic wallets in Iraq.
Iraq’s electronic payment system has been connected to global payment networks, allowing Iraqi bank cards to be used abroad and bank cards issued by foreign banks to be accepted locally.

BRICS EXTENDS FRIENDLY TIES WITH EUROPE AS US TARIFFS HIT
Europe is extending friendly ties with the BRICS alliance as Trump’s tariffs hit the market in February. Several European leaders have expressed displeasure at Trump’s decision to impose tariffs on close Western allies. BRICS member China is making use of the escalating tensions between the US and Europe and extending cordial relations.
Some countries in Europe are reconsidering their relations with BRICS member China, while others are aiming to diversify their partnerships with Japan and South Korea. Many other European nations are reaching out to India to procure goods. The widening rift between the US and Europe stems out of tariffs and its stance in the Ukraine war.
US Tariffs: Will Europe Get Friendly With BRICS?
However, the European Union faces a mixed approach with BRICS member China as some advocate for partnerships while others take a cautious stance. However, China is making use of the situation and pushing cordial ties with Europe as US tariffs hit the market.
“Europe must take its own decisions, on its own. And we have to decide when China can be a partner and when China is a competitor,” said Spain’s Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares. Germany’s chancellor-in-waiting Friedrich Merz said that Trump “does not care much about the fate of Europe”. This gives BRICS a chance to build bridges with Europe as the US is looking to burn it.
“My absolute priority will be to strengthen Europe as quickly as possible so that, step by step, we can really achieve independence from the USA,” said Merz. If Europe extends ties with BRICS countries, the US will remain isolated, and other countries scheme for its downfall.
While Europe is grappling with a realignment, maintaining cordial relations with BRICS member China is not a friendly option. The Communist country aims to dominate the global financial sector and keep the West in the backseat. The US needs to maintain its relations with Europe and not let things fall apart.

Tishwash: The Federal Finance will begin funding February salaries for the region’s employees within two days
An informed source revealed, today, Sunday (March 2, 2025), that the Federal Ministry of Finance will begin financing the salaries of Kurdistan Region employees within the next two days.
The source told Baghdad Today, "The lists sent by the regional government have been audited, and the financing of employees' salaries in Kurdistan will begin within the next two days, after all the problems."
He added, "The Federal Ministry of Finance will send 950 billion dinars to finance February salaries, after which the regional government will announce a schedule for disbursing salaries."
Yesterday, Saturday (March 1, 2025), a responsible Kurdish source stated that the Ministry of Finance will send February salaries to the region’s employees in the middle of next week, confirming that there is a problem with the agreement between the region and the center.
It seems that the source expressed his fear to "Baghdad Today", saying, "The regional government did not abide by the terms of the agreement with Baghdad, and this may cause problems with salaries."

Tishwash: Sudanese Advisor: Digital currency is a qualitative leap that improves oversight and supports combating money laundering
The financial advisor to the Prime Minister, Mazhar Mohammed Salih, praised, on Saturday, the Central Bank of Iraq’s move towards issuing a digital currency, considering it a qualitative leap that enhances transparency and control over financial flows, improves oversight of capital and foreign transfers, and supports efforts to combat money laundering.
Saleh said in a statement reported by the official news agency, and seen by "Al-Eqtisad News", that "the Central Bank is moving towards issuing a digital currency as a gradual alternative to paper currency," indicating that "this trend represents a qualitative leap in the national digital payments system."
He added, "This step will achieve many benefits, including reducing cash leakage, lowering printing costs, and limiting the circulation of paper currency outside the banking system, in addition to reducing the need to print money repeatedly, which reduces the costs associated with its production and distribution, in addition to enhancing transparency and control over financial flows and the ability to track digital liquidity and spending trends, whether consumption, savings or investment, in addition to improving control over capital and foreign transfers, and supporting efforts to combat money laundering."
He pointed out that "digital currencies contribute to achieving financial inclusion, especially for groups less integrated into the banking system, which contributes to enhancing economic and social integration."
He stressed that "the transition to digital currency requires a strong technical infrastructure that includes reliable and advanced internet networks and advanced cybersecurity systems to protect data and transactions, in addition to promoting a culture of societal acceptance of digital currencies, starting with government agencies, through their use in collection operations and official transactions."
He explained that "digital cash will maintain its traditional functions as a unit of account, payments and savings, with the possibility of using it online and on smartphones, which will contribute to developing a more stable and efficient financial environment." link

Something Unprecedented is Happening with Gold—A Gold Monetary Reset is Happening Now
Something Unprecedented is Happening with Gold—A Gold Monetary Reset is Happening Now
Awake-In-3D February 28, 2025
Gold is reclaiming its role in the financial system, signaling a shift we haven’t seen in over five decades.
A Monetary Shift Unlike Any Other
For the first time since 1971, gold is no longer just a hedge against inflation—it is at the center of a financial shift that could redefine the global monetary system. The world has relied on a debt-driven economy for decades, but cracks are beginning to show. Now, a gold monetary reset is unfolding, and the implications could be historic.
Something Unprecedented is Happening with Gold—A Gold Monetary Reset is Happening Now
Awake-In-3D February 28, 2025
Gold is reclaiming its role in the financial system, signaling a shift we haven’t seen in over five decades.
A Monetary Shift Unlike Any Other
For the first time since 1971, gold is no longer just a hedge against inflation—it is at the center of a financial shift that could redefine the global monetary system. The world has relied on a debt-driven economy for decades, but cracks are beginning to show. Now, a gold monetary reset is unfolding, and the implications could be historic.
What’s driving this transformation, and what does it mean for the future of money? The answers lie in a series of economic and geopolitical moves that are reshaping the role of gold in ways we haven’t seen in over 50 years.
Text links highlighted in blue are informative things I read. You should too!
The 1971 Shock: The Last Time Gold Threatened the System
To understand why gold is now at the forefront of a potential monetary reset, we must look back to August 15, 1971, when President Richard Nixon suspended the dollar’s convertibility into gold.
Up until then, foreign governments could redeem U.S. dollars for gold at $35 per ounce.
But rising U.S. debt, inflation, and excessive money printing made this system unsustainable.
When France and other nations began demanding gold for their dollars, Nixon abruptly closed the gold window, effectively defaulting on the U.S.’s gold obligations.
Since that moment, the world has relied on a purely debt-based monetary system—one that has allowed governments to print unlimited money but is now reaching its breaking point.
The question is: What happens when the system can no longer sustain itself?
The Global Gold Puzzle: Why These Reserves Matter Now More Than Ever
For decades, the U.S. has claimed to hold 8,133 metric tons of gold—more than any other nation. Yet where this gold is actually stored is often overlooked:
Fort Knox: Allegedly holds 4,581 metric tons (~56% of total U.S. reserves). This is the site most people associate with U.S. gold holdings, but it has not undergone a full audit in over 40 years.
New York Federal Reserve: Stores roughly 6,190 metric tons of gold—more gold than Fort Knox—but most of this belongs to foreign governments, central banks, and international organizations rather than the U.S. Treasury.
Despite the New York Fed housing more gold than Fort Knox, its role in U.S. gold policy is rarely discussed. Some reports indicate that much of this gold is leased, swapped, or rehypothecated, meaning multiple parties hold claims on the same gold.
Why does this matter now? Because if the world begins to doubt the existence or accessibility of U.S. gold, confidence in the dollar’s credibility could erode rapidly—accelerating a shift away from the fiat-based system.
The Shocking Gold Disconnect: Markets Are Ignoring the Obvious
The financial world continues to ignore gold’s increasing significance. Consider this:
Central banks globally hold $3 trillion worth of gold, yet Microsoft alone has a market capitalization of $3 trillion.
The gold price (currently ranging between 42,850 and 42,950 per ounce over the past week) has failed to reflect its historical role in economic stability, despite rising debt and inflation.
The U.S. national debt now exceeds $36 trillion, making it mathematically impossible to repay without massive inflation or a currency reset.
This massive disconnect between gold and financial assets suggests that gold remains artificially suppressed—but history shows that suppression never lasts forever. When it breaks, it does so violently and suddenly.
The Acceleration Phase: Why This Gold Monetary Reset Will Be Unlike Any Other
For decades, gold has been dismissed as a relic of the past. But now, central banks are buying at record levels, signaling that something big is coming:
2022-2023: Central banks purchased more gold than at any time in history, even surpassing the Bretton Woods era.
The gold-silver ratio is 91:1, meaning silver is historically undervalued and could move 2-3 times faster than gold in an upcoming rally.
Interest rates are rising, making debt-based assets less attractive, while gold, which has no counterparty risk, is becoming more desirable.
Unlike previous gold bull markets, this one stems from structural cracks in the global financial system—not just investor speculation.
The Endgame: Is a Global Gold Monetary Reset Already Underway?
What if the real story isn’t about gold’s price, but rather its return to monetary dominance? There are growing signs that a new gold-backed system is being quietly prepared:
BRICS nations are increasing gold reserves, with China’s gold purchases accelerating significantly.
The IMF has hinted at a new global reserve currency based on a basket of assets and gold. The IMF currently holds over 2,800 metric tons of gold! Did you know that? I didn’t…
U.S. Treasury bonds are losing their global appeal, leading to speculation that a gold-backed alternative may emerge.
We may be witnessing the beginning of a financial transition where gold regains its place as a global standard.
The Gold Monetary Reset Reckoning Has Arrived
For the first time since 1971, gold is being forced back into the spotlight—not by choice, but by necessity. The world’s debt-driven system is crumbling under its own weight, and history suggests that when fiat money loses trust, gold becomes the default solution.
This isn’t just another gold rally. This is the beginning of a structural shift—a move toward a gold monetary reset where gold plays a defining role.
The question is no longer if gold will reassert itself, but when—and whether you’ll be prepared when it does.

RUSSIA WANTS TO REVERSE DE-DOLLARIZATION: WHAT IT MEANS FOR THE US DOLLAR?
The US dollar has always been surrounded by serious foes and enemies, the ones that want to derail its reserve currency status.
To expedite the de-dollarization concept, Russia and China have always been quite vocal about their ideas, adding how they both want to derail the US dollar hegemony by putting forth the idea of the multi-polar currency world.
This roughly sparked the promotion of local currencies on an international scale, jeopardizing the dollar’s supremacy. With the US and EU sanctioning Russia and expelling it out of the SWIFT system, Russia opted for yuan, all while promoting the narrative of de-dollarization at a rapid pace.
But now it seems that things have started to take an interesting turn, with Russia showing a softening stance against the US. What is this all about? Let’s find out.
Tables Turning Around: Trump Supporting Russia
With Donald Trump assuming the role of the US president, his ideas of bolstering the US economy via tariffs have been gaining widespread momentum. Apart from that, another significant development that has caught the world’s attention is Trump’s increased effort to conclude the ongoing Ukraine-Russia war.
The US president has often been noted stating the gruesome repercussions of the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, adding that Zelensky should have made a deal to end the war earlier, showing a supportive stance towards Russia.
“I hear that they’re upset about not having a seat. Well, they’ve had a seat for three years and a long time before that. This could have been settled very easily… Russia wants to do something. They want to stop the savage barbarism.”
"You should have never started it. You could have made a deal…I could have made a deal for Ukraine… That would have given them almost all of the land, everything. Almost all of the land—and no people would have been killed, and no city would have been demolished.”
Trump earlier shared how he has the power to end the war.
“I think I have the power to end this war,” he added.
De-Dollarization To End: Russia Praises Trump
On the other hand, Russian PM Vladimir Putin has notably praised Trump’s effort to resolve the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war.
“Let me note that the first contacts with the American administration instill hope. They too are willing to work towards resuming our ties, solving a colossal amount of strategic problems in world architecture.”
In addition to this, Putin also acknowledged how certain external forces are trying to disrupt the budding Russian-US sense of friendship and commitment.
“I understand that not everybody is pleased with the resumption of Russian-American contacts. Some of the forces are interested in keeping hostilities, and they will try to disrupt the emerging dialogue. We will need to use all the possibilities of diplomacy and special forces to firmly defend our national interests.”
With such developments taking place, the Russia-US fostering relationship could ultimately result in a lasting resolution thwarting BRICS efforts of derailing the US dollar. This development can ultimately put a stop to the rising de-dollarization concepts and ideations.

RUSSIA DELAYS DIGITAL RUBLE CBDC ROLLOUT
A year ago, the Bank of Russia set July 2025 as the date for the first launch phase of its digital ruble central bank digital currency (CBDC). Now the central bank is delaying the roll out. It follows resistance from merchants, a major banking association, and its largest bank, Sber.
The big bank was excluded from the first wave of banks involved in the pilot, so it only joined this January, a year later than planned. Perhaps its inclusion was delayed to avoid it dominating trials, but that’s speculation. The reality is that six months from the first pilot to launch is rather short for a bank.
Central Bank Governor Elvira Nabiullina announced the delay at a meeting with the Association of Russian Banks (ASROS). However, she said that the pilots are progressing well.
“Our intention is to move on to the mass implementation of the digital ruble somewhat later than originally planned, namely after we have worked out all the details in the pilot and held consultations with banks on the economic model that is most attractive to their clients – for businesses, for people,” the Governor said, as reported by the Association.
The central bank first shared details about the planned business model late last year.
A new schedule has not yet been set, and the central bank did not mention the delay on its website. However, the launch postponement was also reported by the Interfax news agency.
Digital ruble: addressing bank concerns
When banks raised their concerns in the State Duma in December, they highlighted several issues. The main ones were worries about deposit outflows and the costs of implementation.
On the first point, from the start the central bank has appeared unconcerned about this impact. This may be partly because it plans a three phase rollout. Initially larger banks and merchants will join, followed by other banks and mid-sized merchants. The final phase will require non bank providers and all merchants to participate, but that will be two years later.
Regarding the expense, the banking association estimated the cost to a bank could be up to Rubles 100 million ($1.1m). The central bank says it will provide some technical elements to banks free of charge, to help smaller banks.
“For those components that are mandatory from the point of view of information security, we (will) provide these solutions to banks free of charge. This software module for embedding is created and transferred to organizations, and in three different forms, so that banks can choose the most optimal one for their landscape,” said Deputy Governor of the Bank of Russia, Zulfiya Kakhrumanova.
“We provide free cryptographic information protection tools for subordinate certification centers that are deployed by banks, and this is also a significant cost aspect for banks,” she added, according to Interfax.

ARIZONA APPROVES BITCOIN RESERVES, BUT WYOMING AND MONTANA ARE SAYING NO – HERE’S WHY
▪Arizona advances crypto legislation - two bills, one establishing a digital asset reserve and another focused on Bitcoin investment
▪While Arizona embraces crypto reserves, other states like Wyoming and Montana reject them due to volatility concerns.
▪Bitcoin's recent price drop fuels skepticism, while predictions suggest federal crypto legislation is forthcoming.
Arizona is pushing ahead with cryptocurrency investment as two Bitcoin reserve bills have passed the Senate, setting the stage for final approval in the state’s House of Representatives.
While states like Wyoming and Montana are rejecting similar measures over concerns about crypto’s volatility, Arizona is doubling down on digital assets.
If these bills pass in the state’s House of Representatives, Arizona could become one of the first states to officially hold Bitcoin in its reserves.
Senate Approves Bitcoin Reserve Bills
On Feb. 27, the Arizona Senate approved the Strategic Digital Assets Reserve bill (SB 1373) in a 17-12 vote, sending it to the House for final approval. Sponsored by Republican Senator Mark Finchem, the bill aims to create a Digital Assets Strategic Reserve Fund, which will be managed by the state treasurer. The fund will include legislative appropriations and crypto assets seized by the state.
To limit risk, the treasurer would be allowed to invest no more than 10% of total fund deposits per fiscal year. However, the state could loan out digital assets to generate returns as long as it doesn’t add financial risk.
Another Bill Aims to Allow Bitcoin Investments
A second Bitcoin-related bill is also moving forward. The Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Act (SB 1025), co-sponsored by Republican Senator Wendy Rogers and Representative Jeff Weninger, passed the Senate with a 17-11 vote.
Unlike Finchem’s bill, which focuses on managing seized crypto assets, SB 1025 allows the state to invest public funds directly into Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. This signals Arizona’s growing commitment to incorporating digital assets into its financial strategy.
Crypto Legislation Gaining Momentum Nationwide
Dennis Porter, founder of Satoshi Action Fund, believes federal regulation of cryptocurrencies is inevitable. He predicts lawmakers will first regulate stablecoins, followed by broader market structure rules, and eventually, Bitcoin reserves.
While Arizona and Utah are leading the push for crypto reserves, 18 other states are still waiting for approval. However, not all states are on board—Montana, Wyoming, and others have rejected similar plans, calling Bitcoin too risky.
Trump Weighs Heavy on the Markets
Despite increasing political support for crypto, Bitcoin’s price has taken a hit. The asset dropped below $80K, and analysts fear it could fall further to $70K–$75K. Bitcoin is down 17% this week, with Trump’s tariff policies adding to market uncertainty.
Amid the panic, Michael Saylor jokingly told investors to “sell a kidney if you must, but keep the Bitcoin.” While Saylor continues to advocate for a U.S. Bitcoin reserve, the recent price drop has given skeptics more reason to doubt Bitcoin’s long-term stability.

ITCOIN NOT FIT FOR SWISS NATIONAL BANK RESERVES, SAYS PRESIDENT
▪The Swiss National Bank president dismissed the idea of holding Bitcoin in reserves due to volatility, liquidity concerns, and security risks.
▪The SNB views cryptocurrencies as a small, volatile "niche phenomenon" unsuitable for central bank reserves.
▪A Swiss initiative is pushing for a public vote to mandate the SNB to include Bitcoin in its reserves.
The Swiss National Bank (SNB) has made its stance on Bitcoin crystal clear—it’s not interested. Despite growing global adoption and a push from Swiss crypto advocates, SNB President Martin Schlegel has firmly rejected the idea of adding Bitcoin to the bank’s reserves.
In a recent interview, he explained why digital assets don’t make the cut, pointing to volatility, liquidity concerns, and security risks.
