UK FREEZES MILLIONS IN CRYPTO SINCE IMPLEMENTING NEW POWERS

According to an investigation by MailOnline, UK authorities have frozen approximately £6 million ($7.7 million) in crypto since new enforcement powers came into effect last year.


The measures, introduced in April 2024, allow police, law enforcement agencies, and HMRC to freeze suspicious cryptocurrency wallets for up to three years.

Court documents reviewed over the past six months reveal the largest single freezing order was for £1.5 million worth of cryptocurrency held in a wallet hosted by US-based exchange Coinbase.

UK FREEZES MILLIONS IN CRYPTO SINCE IMPLEMENTING NEW POWERS

According to an investigation by MailOnline, UK authorities have frozen approximately £6 million ($7.7 million) in crypto since new enforcement powers came into effect last year.


The measures, introduced in April 2024, allow police, law enforcement agencies, and HMRC to freeze suspicious cryptocurrency wallets for up to three years.

Court documents reviewed over the past six months reveal the largest single freezing order was for £1.5 million worth of cryptocurrency held in a wallet hosted by US-based exchange Coinbase.

HMRC requested this order and issued it at Newcastle Upon Tyne Magistrates’ Court on March 18.

The total frozen amount could be higheras court data from Courtsdesk only covers the past six months due to legal restrictions. The new powers were designed to address the growing use of digital currencies for money laundering, tax evasion, and terrorism financing.

Legal expert says £6 million is a modest amount

Legal experts offer differing perspectives on the importance of these seizures. Nick Barnard, a cryptocurrency legal specialist and partner at Corker Binning, described the £6 million figure as relatively modest “in the grand scheme.” Barnard noted that the new enforcement regime started from scratch last April and needs time to develop fully.

However, lawyer Siobhain Egan told MailOnline that the government is directing increased resources toward freezing cryptocurrency assets. This is part of an aggressive strategy to combat money laundering and terrorism financingEgan adds.

The freezing process usually involves investigators applying for orders without notifying the alleged criminals. This prevents them from moving Bitcoin  or other crypto.

“If police have a major investigation into organized criminals laundering money through crypto, they will go in and seize the assets before they finalize the investigation,” Egan explained.

The UK government is improving its cryptocurrency enforcement actions through the Crime and Policing Bill. The legislation includes provisions for valuing cryptocurrency, implementing procedures for courts to recover illicit funds, and granting the Crown Court expanded powers to issue seizure orders.

BRICS TO GREENLIGHT CROSS-BORDER PAYMENT SYSTEM TO COUNTER US DOLLAR?

One of the biggest storylines to develop this year has been the ongoing turmoil between the West and the global south. Since his arrival, US President Donald Trump has targeted the group in an effort to end its de-dollarization plans. However, those may be set to take a step forward as the BRICS are lining up a new cross-border payment system that could counter the US dollar.

The bloc has continued to stand by its hopes of diversifying global finance. Although it has not targeted the greenback directly, its moves have sought to lessen reliance on the currency as a global reserve asset. Now, their latest plan may be forwarding that effort, and Trump’s interpretation could have massive ramifications.

BRICS to Launch Cross-Border Payment System: How Will Trump Respond?

At the start of the year, US President Donald Trump threatened BRICS nations with 150% tariffs. Specifically, the move was seeking to counter its promotion of local currencies. This was primarily driven by that promotion, resulting in a lessening of the US dollar’s status.

Although the bloc has capitulated since the warning was issued, things may be changing. Indeed, the BRICS bloc may be nearing a green light for a cross-border payment system that could affect US dollar reliance. Now, all eyes are on what that could mean for the greenback and how Trump will respond.

According to a recent reportRussian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov discussed the development of the payment system on Friday. “At the BRICS platform, we are considering our various financial innovations,” he said

Moreover, he added that this includes “a cross-border payment system, which can be based, in addition to bilateral settlements, on national currencies, taking into account digital technologies and digital financial assets.”

That highlights the system to be critically focused on alternative currencies to the US dollar. Moreover, that pursuit is nothing new to the BRICS members. It has long been subjected to harsh Western sanctions and has since sought to settle trades in alternative currencies. With the rising prominence of crypto, that could also be used in this new payment platform.

It will likely do what similar BRICS projects have done in the past: provide a key area of exploration for developing nations and align countries. It will threaten the US dollar, but not by much. The currency won’t be dethroned as the top global reserve asset. However, the question is now if President Trump will see it that way.

The Governor of the Central Bank, Ali Al-Alaq, said in a statement to the National Iraqi News Agency ( NINA ), "We are currently making arrangements to finance major industrial projects through coordination between the Trade Bank of Iraq and the Industrial Bank, by taking advantage of the liquidity available at the Trade Bank of Iraq and recycling these funds in the Industrial Bank to launch a major initiative to finance industrial projects in Iraq, which will see the light soon."

He added, "This initiative was recently proposed by the Council of Ministers, within the framework of the government banking sector reform program and government procedures with the Central Bank, indicating that the Council of Ministers agreed to have cooperation between government banks with a financial surplus to finance a package of industrial projects through the Industrial Bank."

He explained that "all other projects are financed according to their sectoral channels, within the general government direction to support industrial, agricultural, housing, education, health, investment and other projects."  LINK

MarkZ  [via PDK]   I continue to hear from bond contacts that they were told they would conclude their transactions this coming week. They have been telling me that now for about 3 days. They are exceptionally hopeful that this movie is coming to an end and the roller coaster ride is almost over.  I was always told when the bond holders get paid – currency folks...will go within 3-10 days.

Militia Man
 1310 is not a traditional currency.  What Iraq used to be is a 'previous era' from the old  'glory days', that was a traditional value.  Is it going to be something like that?  We're going to have to wait and see but obviously they're getting ready to show and launch a digital dinar in the country of Iraq.

Trump Says a ‘Disturbance’ Is Coming: 5 Things That Could Mean for Your Wallet

Trump Says a ‘Disturbance’ Is Coming: 5 Things That Could Mean for Your Wallet

G. Brian Davis  Fri, March 28, 2025     GOBankingRates

In an interview with Fox News, President Donald Trump agreed that American consumers may face some turbulence in the wake of his economic agenda. “There is a period of transition because what we’re doing is very big,” he said in the interview.

The interviewer asked him about the stock market and economic performance in the wake of tariffs, citing what he told Congress in a speech: “There will be a little disturbance, but we’re OK with that,” he said.

Trump Says a ‘Disturbance’ Is Coming: 5 Things That Could Mean for Your Wallet

G. Brian Davis  Fri, March 28, 2025     GOBankingRates

In an interview with Fox News, President Donald Trump agreed that American consumers may face some turbulence in the wake of his economic agenda. “There is a period of transition because what we’re doing is very big,” he said in the interview.

The interviewer asked him about the stock market and economic performance in the wake of tariffs, citing what he told Congress in a speech: “There will be a little disturbance, but we’re OK with that,” he said.

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

The turmoil surrounding the administration’s tariff policies and trade war talk have already rattled markets. The Motley Fool reported that the S&P 500 fell into a correction on March 13, defined as a fall of 10% to 20% from recent highs.

So what should you brace for as a consumer to prepare for a possible disturbance?

Inflation

Companies that import goods don’t just eat the cost when governments slap tariffs on their imports. They typically pass those costs on to consumers in the form of higher prices.

“Many big-budget items like cars and home renovation supplies will be hit with tariffs, resulting in instantly higher prices,” said Melanie Musson, personal finance expert with Clearsurance.

She added that many smaller items may hit Americans’ budgets even harder because we buy them more often. “Smaller items that aren’t on your radar will also get more expensive, such as insulated coffee mugs, produce and electronics,” she said.

As prices rise, the purchasing power of each dollar shrinks, and suddenly your nest egg isn’t worth as much anymore. It’s why people call inflation “the silent killer” of savings.

Shipping Delays

Trade wars don’t just cause prices to spike. They also disrupt supply chains and shipments, according to Gates Little of The Southern Bank Company.

“Surges in ordering before tariff hikes take effect can lead to traffic congestion, which slows delivery speed. As businesses update their sourcing, there can also be shortages in raw materials, delaying production times,” he said.

Some Goods Becoming Unavailable

Some companies may stop importing certain items altogether if they become too expensive to realistically sell in the U.S.

“Businesses pass that additional cost on to the consumer, leading to higher prices,” Little said. “Some may choose to discontinue affected products altogether, especially if they are unable to source the goods domestically.”

For example, the Trump administration has threatened 200% tariffs on European wines, per the Associated Press. But is there a market for paying $100 a bottle for Bordeaux that costs $30 everywhere else in the world?

Maybe not enough of a market to justify the hassle and cost of importing them.

CFTC FREES CRYPTO DERIVATIVES FROM EXTRA SCRUTINY

Crypto advocates scored big as the CFTC scrapped a directive singling out digital asset derivatives, easing scrutiny and marking a sharp split among U.S. regulators.

Barriers Drop—CFTC’s Crypto Retreat Sets Stage for Relentless Upside

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

CFTC FREES CRYPTO DERIVATIVES FROM EXTRA SCRUTINY

Crypto advocates scored big as the CFTC scrapped a directive singling out digital asset derivatives, easing scrutiny and marking a sharp split among U.S. regulators.

Barriers Drop—CFTC’s Crypto Retreat Sets Stage for Relentless Upside

Another win for crypto supporters arrived March 28 when the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) announced that its Division of Clearing and Risk (DCR) has withdrawn Staff Advisory No. 23-07, a directive that had previously signaled increased regulatory scrutiny for digital asset derivatives.

The advisory, originally released May 30, 2023, had focused on the risks tied to the expansion of derivatives clearing organizations (DCOs) into digital asset markets, prompting concerns among industry stakeholders that crypto-based products would be singled out for tougher oversight

The decision to pull the advisory took effect immediately. The CFTC explained the rationale behind its decision by referencing the accompanying withdrawal letter:

As stated in today’s withdrawal letter, DCR determined to withdraw the advisory to ensure that it does not suggest that its regulatory treatment of digital asset derivatives will vary from its treatment of other products.


Staff Advisory No. 23-07 had warned DCOs and applicants to anticipate closer scrutiny when introducing new business lines or clearing models involving digital assets. The advisory placed specific emphasis on compliance with system safeguards, management of operational risks, and rules surrounding the physical settlement of digital asset contracts.

Under the rescinded guidance, DCR had planned to focus reviews on areas such as cybersecurity, shared infrastructure between affiliated entities, and clear delineation of responsibilities in the case of physical delivery of digital assets.

The advisory also reminded DCOs to prepare for risk assessments tailored to the unique characteristics of digital products. While the withdrawal eliminates a standalone framework for digital asset clearing oversight, the CFTC noted it remains committed to maintaining robust standards while supporting “safe and sound, orderly, and fairly competitive clearing systems” through consistent regulation.

Meanwhile, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) have rescinded prior guidance that required banks to obtain regulatory approval before engaging in crypto-related activitiesThese efforts reflect a broader trend among U.S. financial regulators to reduce barriers and encourage responsible innovation in the digital asset space.

TRUMP PLANS WHITE HOUSE VISIT FOR EL SALVADOR’S PRO-BITCOIN BUKELE

President Donald Trump is set to host El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele at the White House in April.

The visit, reported by Bloomberg, follows Bukele’s agreement to detain hundreds of alleged Venezuelan gang members deported from the U.S., a move that aligns with Trump’s immigration enforcement agenda.

If finalized, Bukele will be the first leader from the Western Hemisphere to receive a formal White House visit under Trump’s administration
. While no official date has been set, discussions are ongoing, and plans could change.

Bukele has actively courted Trump in recent months, positioning himself as a key regional ally on security and migration.

Bukele has drawn international attention for his strict crime policies, particularly his crackdown on gang violence, which has significantly reduced crime rates in El Salvador. His administration’s cooperation with U.S. deportation policies could further solidify his standing with Trump, who has made border security a top priority.

Bukele’s Bitcoin bet

Beyond security and migration, Bukele has made headlines for El Salvador’s bold embrace of Bitcoin Bitcoin. In 2021, his government made Bitcoin legal tender, positioning the country as a global experiment in cryptocurrency adoption.

The move has drawn mixed reactions, with supporters praising it as financial innovation and critics pointing to volatility and IMF concerns.

Bukele has remained a strong advocate for Bitcoin, using it to attract foreign investment and promote economic independence.

It is unclear whether Bitcoin will be a topic of discussion during his visit, but his meeting with Trump could signal potential shifts in U.S.-El Salvador financial relations.

Al-Mashkoor told Baghdad Today, "The Oil Minister informed Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani that oil companies have the funds to finalize all contracts, including Contract 315, and to close this file at the ministry."

He added, "The Ministry of Oil is awaiting government instructions to approve the completion of the stabilization or to include a paragraph in the 2025 budget tables, which are expected to reach Parliament in the coming period."

Tishwash:  The fate of 315 contract employees at the Ministry of Oil has been revealed - Urgent

Member of Parliament, Ali Al-Mashkoor, revealed today, Saturday (March 29, 2025), the fate of 315 contract employees in the Ministry of Oil.

Al-Mashkoor told Baghdad Today, "The Oil Minister informed Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani that oil companies have the funds to finalize all contracts, including Contract 315, and to close this file at the ministry."

He added, "The Ministry of Oil is awaiting government instructions to approve the completion of the stabilization or to include a paragraph in the 2025 budget tables, which are expected to reach Parliament in the coming period."

Al-Mashkoor expressed his "hope that the 315 contracts would be confirmed in all ministries to enhance their financial capacity to cope with the difficult living conditions."

According to statements by members of the Parliamentary Finance Committee, the 2025 budget schedules do not include any appointments due to the financial deficit it is suffering from, coupled with fluctuating oil prices, the mainstay of Iraq's revenues  link

***********

Tishwash:  The government completes the budget schedules amid a deficit that affects jobs and services in Iraq.

A government source reported on Saturday that the general budget schedules have been completed and will be submitted to the House of Representatives after the Eid al-Fitr holiday. The source indicated that it will be approximately $200 billion, with a large deficit that will reduce the operating budget and reduce service projects. 

The source told Shafaq News Agency, "The general budget schedules have been completed in a preliminary form and may be transferred to the House of Representatives immediately after the Eid holiday. If this is not possible, it may arrive before the first half of next April so that the legality of its paragraphs can be discussed by the relevant committees in a manner consistent with government spending and the requirements of the stage." 

The source explained that "the total budget amounts will be around $200 billion, with a significant deficit due to the significant decline in strategic reserves of gold and hard currency, in addition to the lack of financial liquidity due to the many projects that require significant spending."

The source indicated that "the operating budget will be reduced, and the pace of service projects launched by the government will be reduced. Consequently, we may witness an urgent budget, as the Independent High Electoral Commission is requesting its financial allocations by mid-April at the latest, to enable it to allocate its spending to prepare for the elections in October."

Economic experts have warned of the impact of delaying the approval of the general budget on economic activity in Iraq, given that it represents a strategic plan for economic development, job creation, and financial stability. At the same time, they emphasized the importance of disbursing the budget, rather than approving it without funding, as occurred last year. This comes amid government assurances that the economic situation is "stable."    

The "triennial" federal budget was approved in 2023, for the years 2023, 2024, and 2025. However, Parliament must approve the budget schedules for each year, and the current year's budget schedules are still with the government, which is currently amending them.   link

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

Tishwash:  PM's Advisor :The Strategic Framework Agreement between Iraq and USA established the foundation for stable bilateral relations

The Prime Minister's Advisor for Financial Affairs, Mudhar Mohammed Salih, confirmed on Saturday that the Strategic Framework Agreement contributed to strengthening Iraq's financial and banking integration. He also noted that Iraq's relationship with the United States contributed to achieving balance in foreign policy and the economy.

Salih told the Iraqi News Agency (INA): "The Strategic Framework Agreement signed between Iraq and the United States in 2008 formed the basis for the development of paths of stability in bilateral relations between the two friendly countries, and on many axes of joint cooperation, which is important in the relationship with a major country like the United States."

He explained that "the role and importance of the United States in the international coalition forces, through its significant participation in combating ISIS terrorism, is an important element in the process of preserving our country's sovereignty, security, and stability. It provided a solid signal to open the doors of the world to international trade and investment links for Iraq, at high levels, through a large gateway whose title is security, stability, and prosperity with the world."

Salih added, "The agreement was a positive channel for creating an atmosphere of financial and banking relations that charted Iraq's path to integration into the international financial and banking system without fears of international financing, while achieving a high degree of transparency and governance with the international banking market and the international financial and economic community."

He continued, "If the United States is the world's leading energy producer, Iraq is OPEC's second-largest crude oil producer, meaning that our country is a strategic international energy hub, and its security and economic stability will remain essential to international development."

He added, "Since the defeat of ISIS terrorism (and in cooperation with friendly major powers, specifically the United States), our country has been able to pursue a neutral and highly independent policy that seeks to build stable economies in a turbulent world. Iraq is a stable achievement that can be emulated in light of the highly complex regional and international geography and politics."

He pointed out that "the friendly and cooperative relations between Iraq and the United States have provided Iraq with two important paths over two decades. The first is achieving balance in Iraq's foreign relations with the United States and not relying on a single axis, or what is called engaging in the policy of axes."

He continued, "The other axis is the role of our country's peace strategy, which has led to reducing regional tensions by building balanced relations with international and neighboring powers, after our country became a highly important international and regional player, credited with providing elements of stability in the region and the world."

The Prime Minister's Advisor emphasized that "the continued improvement of the relationship between Iraq and the United States will continue to contribute to achieving stability and sustainable development, while ensuring that this relationship remains balanced and preserves Iraq's sovereignty and the independence of its national decision-making.

 This is currently achieved through mutual respect and America's appreciation for Iraq's positive positions and its commitment to building just regional peace, security, and shared development."  link

Greg Hunter (w/ Bill Holter): Gold in Hyperdrive in Hyper-Levered House of Cards

USA Watchdog:  2-29-2025

Precious metals expert and financial writer Bill Holter has long said there is a long list of financial trouble coming to America.  

DOGE (Department of Government Accountability) has put the financial reckoning for massive debt and fraud into hyperdrive. 

Gold smells big trouble with another new record high just last week.  Gold is in hyperdrive in an economic hyper-levered house of cards.  Holter explains, “Gold is now considered a Tier 1 asset, but more importantly, gold cannot bankrupt. 

I think big money is looking at the financial system and understanding that it is a hyper-levered house of cards or Ponzi scheme.  Sovereign Treasuries from across the world can and, highly likely, will default in some cases. 

Gold and silver cannot default.  Gold and silver are money. 

This fiat experiment started off with dollars, European currencies, the yen, etcetera.  They were derivatives of gold. . . . They have had several suppression schemes to keep the price down, and they desperately have to keep the price of silver down because if silver runs, gold is going to follow. 

 High and rising gold process are basically a vote of no confidence by the international community.”

Don’t underestimate how disruptive DOGE cutting fraud and waste will be on the economy.  Holter points out, “The last time we interviewed, we talked about DOGE and all of this slush money being paid out.  Look at the 14 magic money machines that Elon Musk has found. 

All this money being spewed into the economy registers as GDP.  So, if you shut those spigots off, you are shutting off the money, and the real economy slows down.  There is less cash flow from that. 

 The real danger, and I am not so sure it is by accident, is this Trump’s idea of pulling the plug?  I have to believe he understands that by cutting the spending or cutting the capital that is going into the system, with the system as leveraged as it is right now, it’s going to take everything down.  

What you are doing is cutting off new money to the Ponzi scheme, and no Ponzi scheme can survive without continually getting new money coming into it.”

Holter also says, “The United States was considered for years and years the safe haven because of its pristine rule of law.  When you pull the curtain back and everything is rotten, confidence breaks.  You are not going to have money moving into the US for safe haven status.  You are going to have money leaving the United States. 

It’s not just the money that is not going to hit the streets because of DOGE, but mentally because of the corruption they are exposing.  DOGE is basically exposing that the United States is corrupt and a s****y place to do business.”

In closing, Holter says, “DOGE revealing that they just pay money out of thin air is a huge problem.  You can’t do the math if you don’t have good numbers. . . . If we can glean that they are going to cut $500 billion or $1 trillion or $2 trillion and we can figure out that is a problem for the real economy and the financial markets, don’t you think the people running the show know that? 

That tells me they are purposely pulling the rug out from under the system.  It’s game over.”

There is much more in the 53-minute interview.

$40 Silver Price In The Cards Says Wild West Miner

Daniela Cambone:  3-29-2025

If silver breaks through $33-$34 an ounce and stays there, we’ll see $40 silver by the end of the year,” predicts Giordy Belfiore, Investor Relations & Corporate Development Manager at Summa Silver Corp. In this interview with Daniela Cambone at PDAC, he shares insights on the future of silver and gold, the growing role of silver in the green economy, and what’s ahead for the mining sector.

He also addresses the common disconnect between high gold prices and lagging mining stocks, stating, “It’s well known: first the spot price moves, then the majors, then the mid-tiers, and finally the juniors. We’re nearing that inflection point.”

While tariffs currently have no impact, he suggests that a U.S.-centric approach to metals could become increasingly valuable in the future.

The long-running legal fight between Ripple and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is nearing its final chapter. With both sides dropping their respective appeals, attention has now turned to what comes next. ‘

However, a new claim from an XRP community member suggests that the SEC won’t make any official announcement on the case until August 7, raising questions about a potential delay.

Is a Settlement Really Happening?

Ripple’s legal chief, Stuart Alderoty, has hinted that all necessary paperwork for a settlement has already been prepared. The next step, however, lies in the hands of the SEC Commission, which is expected to vote on the matter within the next 30 days.

Once that vote is complete, the SEC will move to lift the injunction imposed on Ripple. If Ripple complies with the process, Judge Analisa Torres will then sign off on the motion, officially closing the case.

Will the SEC Remains Silent Until August 7?

Adding more fuel to the speculation, an XRP supporter named Brett recently made a bold claim on social media. He stated that the SEC would not make any official announcement on the lawsuit until August 7, citing a court document as his source.

His post quickly gained traction, with some in the community seeing it as a significant development. However, not everyone agreed. Many pointed out that the document he referenced was from last year, casting doubt on its relevance to the current situation.

Former SEC lawyer Marc Fagel even dismissed the claim outright, calling it “stupid and wrong.” This conflicting information has left the XRP community divided on what to believe.

No Official Announcement From the SEC

Although both the SEC and Ripple have withdrawn their appeals, the agency has yet to make an official announcement, leading to speculation that the case may already be settled. However, legal complexities could be causing a delay.

Fox Business journalist Eleanor Terrett suggested that the SEC might be waiting to ask Judge Torres to remove the injunction—a step that is different from how other cases have been handled.

For now, XRP holders are eagerly waiting for clarity, with hopes that the lawsuit’s resolution will bring long-awaited regulatory certainty to Ripple and its token.

BRICS: RUSSIA TO FOLLOW US, SEEK MAJOR UAE INVESTMENT DEAL?

The last several months have seen geopolitical tension hit a new high. Indeed, the United States has targeted the Global South with tariffs in an effort to secure the status of the dollar. Now, that has taken an interesting turn for BRICS, as Russia may be looking to follow the US and seek a major investment deal from the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

Both Moscow and the UAE are set to meet to discuss their strategic cooperation. Moreover, that meeting took place after the latter unveiled a monumental investment framework plan with the United States. With tensions still high, the development is one that may have massive implications.

BRICS See Russia UAE Talk Collaboration After Landmark US Deal

Since the start of the year, the BRICS bloc and the US have faced off. With his election win in late 2024, Donald Trump targeted the alliance with 150% tariffs. Specifically, he was seeking to deter their de-dollarization efforts and secure the global reserve status of the greenback.

However, the ongoing tension between both sides took a rather interesting turn this month. Now, they may be set to get even more complicated for BRICS, as Russia is set to meet with the UAE and may be seeking a deal similar to the one it struck with the US.

In a rather surprising development, the UAE announced a mammoth 10-year, $1.4 trillion investment framework in the United States. The move was going to inject increased capital into the US and fortify what is a rather fragile economic standing. Interestingly, the UAE is a BRICS nation, the same one that has been clearly in the crosshairs of the alliance.

Now, a new report highlights that Russian President Vladimir Putin and UAE President Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan are set to hold a telephone meeting this week.

According to the report, both sides discussed the partnership between both nations and gave “a positive assessment” of the dealings so far. Time may tell if they come to an agreement similar to that of the US.

TRUMP PARDONS BITMEX CO-FOUNDERS CONVICTED OF FINANCIAL CRIMES: REPORT

Former President Donald Trump has pardoned BitMEX co-founders Arthur Hayes, Benjamin Delo, and Samuel Reed.

The three had previously pleaded guilty to federal charges related to money laundering and regulatory violations, according to CNBC reporting.

The three executives were convicted for failing to implement anti-money laundering measures at BitMEX, which prosecutors labeled a “money laundering platform.

Reed admitted to violating the Bank Secrecy Act in 2022 and agreed to pay a $10 million fine. Despite BitMEX’s claims of withdrawing from the U.S. market, authorities alleged that the move was a “sham.”

Buckle up for April 2, Liberation Day to Spark a Market “Demolition”

Buckle up for April 2, Liberation Day to Spark a Market “Demolition”

Daniela Cambone:  3-28-2025

Hold onto your hats! According to David Stockman, a former Republican U.S. Representative and the Director of the Office of Management and Budget under President Ronald Reagan, we’re headed for some serious turbulence in the financial markets.

 Stockman is predicting a major “explosion” in both the stock and bond markets leading up to April 2nd.

Buckle up for April 2, Liberation Day to Spark a Market “Demolition”

Daniela Cambone:  3-28-2025

Hold onto your hats! According to David Stockman, a former Republican U.S. Representative and the Director of the Office of Management and Budget under President Ronald Reagan, we’re headed for some serious turbulence in the financial markets.

 Stockman is predicting a major “explosion” in both the stock and bond markets leading up to April 2nd.

In a recent interview with Daniela Cambone on ITM Trading, Stockman didn’t mince words about the economic forces he believes are at play. He argues that the root of America’s massive trade deficits isn’t flawed trade agreements, but rather a deeply flawed monetary policy orchestrated by the Federal Reserve’s relentless money printing.

Beyond just criticizing the Fed, Stockman offered a compelling perspective on other political events. He even suggested that the fentanyl crisis wasn’t the primary motivation behind former President Trump’s strained relationship with Canada, hinting at deeper, underlying issues.

While Stockman’s predictions are certainly alarming, they’re rooted in his analysis of the current economic landscape and the Federal Reserve’s actions.

 To understand more about his rationale and the potential implications for your investments, viewers are encouraged to watch the full interview on ITM Trading for a deeper dive into Stockman’s economic outlook and his predictions for what lies ahead.

Trump Declares Wed. 2 April 2025 as Liberation Day?

= Release of Nesara/Gesara Monies to The People???
= Global Currency Reset To Gold/Asset-Backed Currencies Saves Economy???
= Fall of Corrupted Banks = Stock Market Collapse???

Judy Note: Trump has declared Wed. 2 April 2015 as Liberation Day. Why? – because April 2 was the anniversary of the April 2 1792 birth of the US Dollar under a gold and silver standard. Back then the US Dollar was Real. Valid. Honest – before the Central Banks corrupted it into worthless debt paper.

A few days ago on Tues. 25 March 2025 President Trump (allegedly) activated the new gold/asset-backed Global Quantum Financial System (QFS) powered by XRP.

So, next week on April 2 Liberation Day, gold/asset-backed monies of Nesara/Gesara could be released to The People of the World. With that, corrupted banks all over the Globe were expected to fall, the Stock Market, collapse; the Federal Reserve with their criminal IRS would be no more; plus it would mark the eventual demise of the large Global corporations at the Vatican that were only held up by stolen US Taxpayer now-fiat dollars.

A Trump Executive Order had already (allegedly) linked the QFS to the U.S. Treasury Reserve, cutting off all Globalist control. Yes, Liberation Day was the Beginning of the End for that Globalist control, and America’s fiat-based economic deception.

Deepstate Bureaucrats had been screeching for some time about the changeover from their fiat Federal Reserve Note that was worth nothing; privacy groups howling and the Deepstate safety net was unraveling with the birth of a new gold-backed US Treasury Note – which were (allegedly) sitting in bank vaults ready to be distributed.

In addition to the new gold-backed financial system, Deepstate Globalists were protesting Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) Investigations where trillions of US Taxpayer monies have been saved from waste and Money Laundering. In just the past three weeks alone, DOGE vaporized over seven million fake Social Security records — many showing “immortal” citizens aged 130 to 160+.

~~~~~~~~~~

What We Think We Know as of Sat. 29 March 2025:

DOGE Investigations = Trillions Saved in Waste, Money Laundering = Tax Revolt = IRS Collapse = Thousands to be given back to The People. In just three weeks, Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) vaporized over 7 million fake Social Security records — many showing “immortal” citizens aged 130 to 160+. Bureaucrats are screeching, privacy groups are howling, and the deepstate safety net is unraveling.

Tues. 25 March 2025 Trump destroys the Globalist Banking Cartel – the QFS (allegedly) is live, XRP is the weapon. The Fed is dead.

Trump Declares Tues. 2 April 2025 as Liberation Day = Is it the Release of Nesara/Gesara monies to The People = Fall of corrupted banks = Stock Market Collapse = Demise of Vatican Global Corporations = Beginning of End for Globalist control & America’s fiat-based economic deception?

Wed. 26 March 2025 Musk deletes seven million “immortals” from Social Security – Bureaucrats scream, DOGE doesn’t flinch! …Steve Bannon on Telegram

DOGE did in 3 weeks what the swamp couldn’t do in 30 years. The files are gone. The rot is exposed. And now the system is howling in pain.

Musk’s words? “We’re cleaning up the dead people database.” That’s leadership. That’s war.

THE PANIC: Lawsuits exploded. Judges blocked access. The media cried “tyranny.” But why? Because Elon cracked open the fraud machine. And what spilled out was $71.8 billion in failure.

THE NEXT STRIKE: Musk’s not done. 5 million more “impossible-age” files are under review. The next purge is coming — and it won’t be pretty.

~~~~~~~~~~

March 25, 2025 — President Trump unleashes the economic kick start. The Quantum Financial System (QFS) is 9allegedly now ACTIVE. It’s real. It’s running. And it’s powered by XRP.

The Federal Reserve is finished. The Rothschilds are OUT. The banking mafia? Disconnected. Forever.

A new dollar has been born — and it’s not theirs.

Trump’s Executive Order links QFS to the U.S. Treasury Reserve, cutting off globalist control. No more SWIFT. No more fiat scams. No more middlemen. This isn’t a policy tweak. It’s a financial coup.

The fractional-reserve racket is OVER. No more printing fake dollars. No more debt-based slavery. No more central bank leeches draining our future.

Every dollar will be traceable. Every transaction accounted for.

QFS = 100% traceability, real-time settlement, total transparency. It’s the digital sword that cuts straight through the deepstate’s economic illusion.

And the heart of it all? XRP. Yes — the same XRP they tried to destroy. The asset banned, ridiculed, and feared by central banks. That’s what powers the new U.S. Treasury Dollar. The people’s dollar.

The Treasury now controls our money — not foreign banks. America has taken back the wheel. We’re no longer a colony of elite parasites.

STABLECOIN LEGISLATION SHOULDN’T FORCE ISSUERS TO COMPLY WITH BANK SECRECY ACT: REP. TOM EMMER

House Majority Whip Tom Emmer thinks stablecoin bills under discussion on Capitol Hill should remove language forcing issuers to comply with stringent anti-money laundering laws.

In a potential sign of brewing tensions regarding key language in multiple stablecoin bills circulating in Congress, House Majority Whip Tom Emmer (R-MN) said this week he doesn’t believe stablecoin issuers like Tether should have to comply with the anti-money laundering Bank Secrecy Act—a major sticking point of both the Senate’s stablecoin-focused GENIUS Act, and the House’s parallel STABLE Act.

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

STABLECOIN LEGISLATION SHOULDN’T FORCE ISSUERS TO COMPLY WITH BANK SECRECY ACT: REP. TOM EMMER

House Majority Whip Tom Emmer thinks stablecoin bills under discussion on Capitol Hill should remove language forcing issuers to comply with stringent anti-money laundering laws.

In a potential sign of brewing tensions regarding key language in multiple stablecoin bills circulating in Congress, House Majority Whip Tom Emmer (R-MN) said this week he doesn’t believe stablecoin issuers like Tether should have to comply with the anti-money laundering Bank Secrecy Act—a major sticking point of both the Senate’s stablecoin-focused GENIUS Act, and the House’s parallel STABLE Act.

Including such a provision in the legislation could box out foreign issuers while favoring U.S. companies, since U.S.-based entities are currently better equipped to meet stricter demandsThe lawmaker believes stablecoin issuers, regardless of jurisdiction, should not be subject to the stringent anti-money laundering rules under the Bank Secrecy Act.

“The protections the so-called Bank Secrecy Act is supposed to provide were drafted for cash, and this is blockchain-driven,” Emmer told Decrypt Wednesday evening. “And guess what, everything on the blockchain is open and transparent to people who understand how to follow code.”

“It's pretty interesting to say that the Bank Secrecy Act—which doesn't even contemplate this type of technology, a digital asset—should be what we're using,” the congressman added.

Stablecoins are digital assets typically pegged to the U.S. dollar and designed to keep a steady price. They're used by cryptocurrency traders to enter and exit positions without the need for dollars, and used as dollar equivalents in markets where dollars are restricted or inaccessible.

The latest drafts of the GENIUS Act and STABLE Act treat all stablecoin issuers as financial institutions under the Bank Secrecy ActThe law, enacted in 1970, established a stringent set of proactive anti-money laundering rules that American banks must comply with in order to operate.

The Bank Secrecy Act, for example, obligates regulated institutions to engage in suspicious activity monitoring, undergo routine audits, hire compliance officers, and adopt a customer identification program mandated by the Patriot Act—the controversial law that expanded government surveillance powers shortly after the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

Such requirements would pose quite a hurdle for existing foreign stablecoin issuers like Tether, the company behind USDT and the market’s undisputed leaderTether, whose USDT stablecoin boasts a market capitalization in excess of $144 billion, is based in the U.S. Virgin Islands, and plans to move to El Salvador—but nonetheless is one of the world’s biggest purchasers of U.S. Treasuries, which it uses as collateral to back its U.S. dollar-pegged stablecoin.

In its current setup, Tether enjoys much less strict regulation than the Bank Secrecy Act would mandate, and the company's leadership has implied that moves to force all stablecoin issuers to comply with such rules would hurt the firm and aid its competitors.

By contrast, Circlethe issuer behind the market's second-largest stablecoin USDC, is already based in the United StatesThe company is regulated as a money transmitter by the New York Department of Financial Services and as such must already comply with the Bank Secrecy Act.

Circle is also already in compliance with the European Union's elaborate MiCA regulatory framework, a move Tether has resisted.

As stablecoin legislation in the U.S. nears a crescendoquestions have emerged regarding whether Tether would come to the United States if it had to comply with the Bank Secrecy Act—or, alternatively, what would happen if the stablecoin market’s top player was boxed out of American financial markets.

Emmer does not want to risk locking Tether, or any other foreign issuer, out of the burgeoning U.S. stablecoin sector.

“We've got to let everybody compete in this space,” he said.

That doesn’t mean Tether wouldn’t have to comply with certain rules in order to operate in the United States. To Emmer, the sticking point is proof of reservesshowing the government that your token is backed up with sufficient collateral to keep its value pegged to the dollar even in periods of market volatility.

To that end, Emmer believes Tether is, broadly speaking, doing well. In 2021, the company partnered with Wall Street firm Cantor Fitzgerald to help custody some of the $92 billion worth of U.S. Treasuries it claims to currently hold in reserve.

“Tether has done a great job straightening itself out in the last four years,” Emmer said.

The House Financial Services Committee is set to mark up the STABLE Act during a session next week. Meanwhile, the GENIUS Act already passed out of the Senate Banking Committee earlier this month with strong bipartisan support—Bank Secrecy language intact. It is likely to face a full vote on the Senate floor in the coming months.

US BANKS GAIN CRYPTO ACCESS AS FDIC REVOKES APPROVAL RULE

▪️The FDIC has reversed its 2022 policy requiring banks to get pre-approval for crypto activities.

▪️This policy shift, driven by new leadership and industry advocacy, signals a move towards clearer regulatory guidelines.

▪️The FDIC's action, along with similar moves by the OCC, reflects a broader regulatory adjustment in response to the maturing crypto industry.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) has officially scrapped its 2022 rule that required banks to get approval before engaging in crypto activities. For years, banks interested in digital assets were stuck in limbo, waiting for approvals that never came. Now, that roadblock is gone.

With fewer regulatory hurdles, will banks finally embrace digital assets, or will caution still hold them back? Here’s what the new guidance means and why it matters.

FDIC Gives Banks the Go-Ahead for Crypto

In its updated guidance, the FDIC stated that banks under its supervision can engage in crypto-related activities as long as they properly manage the risks involved.

“FDIC-supervised institutions may engage in permissible activities, including activities involving new and emerging technologies such as crypto-assets and digital assets, provided that they adequately manage the associated risks.

Like any financial activity, banks must assess potential risks, follow consumer protection and anti-money laundering rules, and consult with regulators when needed.

FDIC’s Role in the Crypto Banking Crackdown

The FDIC oversees many smaller banks and plays a key role in protecting the financial system. However, it was also involved in what many call a crypto banking crackdown. A lawsuit involving Coinbase revealed that the FDIC had quietly warned banks to avoid working with crypto companies while drafting new rules—but never actually put those rules in place.

A Shift Under Trump’s Administration

This policy change comes after President Trump appointed leaders who support the crypto industry and encouraged regulators to take a more open approach. FDIC Acting Chairman Travis Hill said this move corrects the agency’s flawed approach over the past three years.

“I expect this to be one of several steps the FDIC will take to lay out a new approach for how banks can engage in crypto- and blockchain-related activities in accordance with safety and soundness standards,” he noted.

Regulators Easing Restrictions on Crypto

Bo Hineshead of the White House’s Digital Assets Advisory Council, called the decision a “huge step forward” in a social media post. Previously, the FDIC, Federal Reserve, and Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) all required banks to get pre-approval before working with crypto.

The OCC recently reversed its 2022 guidance, which was introduced during a time of instability in the digital asset industry. That period saw major company failures and high-profile fraud cases, including the collapse of crypto exchange FTX. These recent regulatory changes signal a shift in how US regulators view the crypto industry, possibly paving the way for more mainstream adoption.

Tishwash:  Iraq prepares for the largest leap in electricity production: historic contracts with GE and Siemens and plans to compensate for gas shortages.

Minister of Electricity Ziyad Fadhil revealed on Friday that Iraq is about to sign two historic contracts with the American company General Electric and the German company Siemens to boost electricity production. The first contract will provide 24,000 megawatts, while the second will add 10,000 megawatts to the national grid.

The minister confirmed in a statement received by Al Furat News that "the issue of importing Iranian gas has not yet been resolved, explaining that the ministry has not received any official notification of the suspension of supplies, while discussions on the matter are still ongoing." 

In the face of any potential gas supply shortage, Fadel noted that "the government has alternative plans, including the use of kerosene, taking advantage of electricity interconnection projects with neighboring countries, solar power plants, combined-cycle units that do not require fuel, and the establishment of a floating gas platform at the port to enhance energy sources." 

The minister noted that "the ministry is currently implementing the largest campaign to resolve power grid bottlenecks in all governorates, by upgrading and creating new lines and installing transformer stations, with the goal of achieving greater stability in supply hours." 

Regarding warnings of an electricity crisis next summer, Fadel confirmed that "there is an exaggerated hype," emphasizing that the government is well aware of the challenges and has clear plans to address them and ensure stable electricity supply in the coming months.  link

Tishwash:  Al-Sudani: Restrictions are useful, and I asked the Americans about their silence on the dollar chaos before me!

Answered about selling 300 million daily

Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani asserted that US sanctions were the best way to eliminate “rogue shops” and that the punitive measures imposed on Iraqi banks were a result of the previous government’s failure to fulfill its commitments to the US. He also said that the Treasury described the progress in reforming the banking system as “the revolution we dreamed of.” During a lengthy interview, al-Sudani justified the increase in the Central Bank’s dollar sales by the acceleration of construction activity and the import of building materials.

 He also promised to launch a reform plan to correct the banking sector, which is “the most important in Iraq’s history.”

 Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani, during an interview with journalist Samer Jawad:

There is an exaggeration of the problems facing Iraq, even though countries face many similar challenges, even on the security level. During the ISIS crisis, they said that Iraq was finished, and on the economic level, they said that the economy was finished, but things later proceeded normally.

After assuming the premiership, I faced the issue of the agreements between the previous government, the Treasury, and the US Federal Reserve, which were two years old at the time, regarding a roadmap for Iraq to enter the global financial compliance circle. However, the previous government did not implement any of them, and the deadline expired at the beginning of my government.

My government was able to transform the challenge and commitment to the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve into an opportunity to reform the Iraqi financial and banking system. This came at a social and political cost, which our opponents exploited. However, we leveraged the issue to end the anomalous situation of dollar-selling shops, which we all complained about, and we were able to implement the imposed obligations.

The sanctioned banks were sanctioned for violations committed during the previous government's term. The sanctions imposed by international institutions were related to that period, but there are no violations in this regard now.

We have been able to implement the standards, and now the Iraqi banking system operates transparently, in accordance with international compliance standards and certified by international institutions. During my last visit to New York, the US Treasury representative informed us that Iraq has achieved a revolution we had dreamed of in previous periods. International compliance standards have been applied to all Iraqi financial transfers, via correspondent banks and the US audit firm. Not a single dollar is spent without passing through these bodies.

The only cash dollars exchanged are for travelers, and are spent at the plane door. Therefore, not a single dollar is exchanged outside of improper transactions and procedures. The Central Bank's increased dollar sales have a different interpretation related to construction and development in the country, unlike what used to happen in the days when the process was conducted through receipts and chaos. Thirty percent of the value of our annual imports goes to construction materials, and this reflects the scale of construction and development.

The Iraqi banking system has reached such a level of reliability that international banks have begun opening credit lines here. We have contracted with Oliver Wyman to reform the private banking system, and we will launch the reform plan after Eid. It will be the most important plan since the founding of the Iraqi state. The government banking sector will be reformed under the supervision of Ernst & Young. link

Disclose.TV:  JUST IN - United States has suspended financial contributions to the World Trade Organization — Reuters

Huge News For America And The World

Let’s go through some quick bullet points as to why. Shall we?

1. Shatters the Globalist Leash: Cutting WTO funds snaps a chain that’s tethered U.S. sovereignty to a faceless bureaucracy, freeing America to forge trade deals that don’t kneel to 164 nations’ consensus deals that prioritize its own steel, farms, and factories.

2. Starves the Paper Tiger: The WTO’s $232 million budget (2024) is a bloated hog—m 11% from U.S. pockets feeding endless debates while China skirts rules. Starving it forces a leaner, meaner system or its collapse, either way ending the charade of “fair trade” theater.

3. Unmasks Hidden Players: With the U.S. out, shadow influencers—m think corporate lobbyists and state-owned enterprises lose their Geneva puppet strings, exposing who’s really been rigging the game behind WTO’s marble facade.

4. Ignites Regional Power Blocs: No WTO cash flow sparks a scramble NAFTA 2.0, EU trade forts, Asian pacts reshuffling global alliances into tighter, more accountable units, not some utopian one-world mess that never worked.

5. Kills the Arbitration Farce: The WTO’s dispute system, crippled since 2019 by U.S. judge blocks, gets a mercy k**l. Nations now settle trade scores bilaterally, mano-a-mano, cutting the middleman who couldn’t enforce jack anyway.

6. Boosts the Underdog Hustle: Smaller nations, freed from WTO’s rigid script, can barter directly with the U.S., leveraging raw deals think rare earths from Africa or lithium from South America over China’s chokehold, shaking up global supply chains.

7. Defangs China’s Dodge: Beijing’s “developing nation” status at WTO long a loophole for subsidies and dumping crumbles without U.S. dollars propping the system. America can now hit back with tariffs that bite, not beg for Geneva’s nod.

8. Reclaims Tech Edge: The WTO’s stalled digital trade rules (U.S. dropped demands in 2023) kept tech giants caged. Suspension lets America unilaterally lock down data flows and IP, shielding its silicon crown from foreign poachers.

9. Lights a Fire Under Congress: No WTO safety net forces D.C. to get off its a*s craft trade laws with teeth, not just react to global edicts. It’s a wake-up call for a legislature that’s sleepwalked through decades of outsourcing.

10. Unleashes Economic Darwinism: Without WTO’s nanny-state rules, markets turn b****l l survival of the fittest. U.S. industries either adapt fast innovate, retool or die, purging the weak and forging a harder economic spine.

This isn’t about cheerleading it’s about seeing the dominoes fall, the masks drop, and the game reset. For Americans, it’s clawing back what’s theirs; for the world, it’s a mirror to its own grit or lack thereof.

11. Cracks the Green Agenda: WTO’s limp climate trade talks (stalled since 1995) lose steam without U.S. funds. America can now push bilateral green tech deals think solar with India, wind with Brazil skipping the eco-preaching gridlock.

12. Frees the Dollar’s Muscle: Less tied to WTO’s trade web, the U.S. can wield its currency like a sledgehammer sanctions, incentives, whatever works without Geneva’s red tape slowing the swing.

13. Sparks a Trade Renegade Wave: Other big players EU, Japan might follow, ditching WTO’s sinking ship. A fractured system births a new order, one where power, not bureaucracy, dictates terms, shaking the world out of its trade coma.

14. Ends the Fentanyl Excuse Game: WTO’s paralysis on d**g precursors (China’s exports untouched) gets no more U.S. cover. Suspension lets America hammer direct trade bans, targeting the flow that’s killing its streets, no diplomatic dance required.

15. Reveals the Void’s Hunger: If the WTO folds, the gap it leaves unregulated trade chaos shows the world what the Ark felt like: a force unbound, eating control. Nations either step up or get devoured, proving order’s price in real time.

Today’s Guest: Bob Kudla

Bob begins the conversation discussing net zero in Germany and the EU. We have two situations as of right now, US, China moving towards fossil fuels and Germany and the EU moving towards net zero.

The people will see the difference. Gold might be revalued to where Bitcoin is, this has been done before during the 1930s.

Trump sent a message to the Fed by choosing April 2, this date is when the coinage act came into existence.

Frank26    I see so many things that are not for 1310... We could make a long list and we still wouldn't complete the list.  What's the listAll the things that are waiting for the new exchange rate? ...1310 is not for what Sudani is going to do.

Militia Man  Article quote:  "Sudanai...said the United States Treasury described the progress in reforming the banking system as the revaluation we dreamed of."  That's the United States Treasury saying that.  Quote: "He also promised to launch a reform plan to correct the banking sector which is the most important in Iraq's history."  This doesn't sound like things of the past.  I've never seen this type of language before, especially coming from a prime minister... Quote: "We will launch the reforms after EID."  That's huge.  If he sticks to his guns and sticks to what he says that's not very far off.  Quote:  " He says it will be the most important plan since the founding of the Iraqi state."  Really...?  Have you ever hear that before?  I don't think so.  I haven't...This is a Wow! Wow! Wow!
