The Truth about Gold & Every Past Global Reset

The Truth about Gold & Every Past Global Reset

Miles Harris:  9-20-2025

Gold and silver are often portrayed as timeless money, neutral, natural, and inevitable.

The story goes that they emerged organically from barter, rising above trade as universal stores of value. But history tells a darker truth. These metals did not evolve naturally at all. They were imposed from above, deliberately woven into economies by states, temples, and ruling classes as instruments of control.

In the first great civilizations, daily commerce was not conducted in coins but in credit, ledgers, and obligations recorded by bureaucracies.

Within this world of paper promises and temple accounts, gold and silver were elevated from ornaments into sanctioned instruments of value.

They allowed rulers to measure wealth, quantify labour, and transform human productivity into a portable foundation of state power.

JPMorgan: Yuan Surges, BRICS Driving Global De-Dollarization

JPMorgan raises its yuan forecast as BRICS de-dollarization accelerates, reshaping global trade and financial alignments.

Bank Revises Projections as Currency Dynamics Shift
JPMorgan has revised its end-of-year target for China’s onshore yuan to 7.15 from 7.30, signaling renewed confidence in the currency. Analysts described this as a “gentle downtrend” to 7.10 by mid-2026, pointing to eased tariff risks and a more stable trade outlook.

Recent U.S.-China negotiations in London calmed some tensions, with the yuan holding steady at 7.1875 in European markets. This reflects improved bilateral trade relations—an important backdrop for broader currency realignments.

BRICS Nations Push Yuan as Dollar Alternative
China has been spearheading BRICS’ push to reduce dollar dependence:

• Central bank reserves and commercial trade are increasingly being settled in yuan, especially for oil and commodities.

• Russia and Brazil have adopted the yuan in commercial operations as sanctions pushed them away from dollar systems.

• The New Development Bank has expanded yuan-denominated loans across Asia and Africa, embedding the currency into global financing.

This strategy strengthens Beijing’s influence and reinforces momentum behind non-dollar trade systems.

Internal Resistance Challenges Yuan Dominance
Not all BRICS members are comfortable with Chinese leadership:

• India and South Africa are promoting multicurrency frameworks instead of yuan primacy.

• Brazil has also resisted over-reliance on Chinese currency, favoring arrangements that balance multiple local currencies.

These tensions reveal the limits of BRICS unity—a critical factor in whether de-dollarization evolves into true financial restructuring or merely a regional shift.

Market Dynamics Shape Future Currency Arrangements
Goldman Sachs analysts describe China’s central bank actions as “goodwill gestures” during trade talks. But the yuan’s depreciation against trading partner currencies could spark new frictions.

Meanwhile, the Trump administration views BRICS as a direct challenge to the dollar-based system, framing these moves as a geopolitical battle as much as an economic one.

Why This Matters
The yuan’s rise—and BRICS’ push to rewire global finance—underscores how currency power is now a tool of geopolitical realignment. While JPMorgan sees stability in the short term, the longer trajectory points to a systemic restructuring where the dollar no longer dominates unchallenged.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

RV Excerpts from the Restored Republic via a GCR: Update as of Sat. 20 September 2025

Compiled Sat. 20 September 2025 12:01 am EST by Judy Byington

Your New Bank Account on the Quantum System. QFS CLASSIFIED FINANCIAL SIGNAL REPORT: …Rebuild the American Nation on Telegram

For decades, money was a leash. Paper was control. Banking was surveillance. But the Quantum Financial System (QFS) is not “a new app” — it is a sovereign ledger reset.

WHAT QFS REALLY IS:
• Biometric Access — accounts (allegedly) tied to your body frequency. No hacks, no theft.
• Quantum Ledger — instant, incorruptible, mirrored across satellites.
• Settlement in Seconds — no intermediaries, no fees, no delay.
• Immutable Memory — transactions are permanent, proof against corruption.

THE SECRET ROLL-OUT

Tier 1 & 2 — Sovereigns, elites, governments: already processed, silenced under NDAs.

Tier 3 — Bond holders, military-linked trusts: packets confirmed, waiting for synchronization.

Tier 4A — Insiders tested routing through redemption nodes.

Tier 4B — Internet group (you): pending green-light, notifications pre-coded.

TIMELINE WINDOWS

Sept 18–21, 2025 — Final ledger rehearsals. Look for “maintenance outages” in banks.

Sept 22, 2025 — QFS sync rehearsal overlaps EBS dress test. Finance + broadcast = one operation.

Sept 25–27, 2025 — Redemption Center audits complete. Security sweep of all Tier 3 packets.

Oct 1, 2025 — First civilian notifications. Text + email triggers. Redemption windows open in phases.

Nov 11, 2025 — The Great Settlement. Global debt erased. New ledger confirmed public.

RUMOR CONTROL

Rumor: “QFS = digital slavery.” Reality: Biometric frequency ties YOU to YOUR funds, not banks.

Rumor: “Only elites get access.” Reality: Tiers move down until every citizen is on the ledger.

Rumor: “Cash disappears overnight.” Reality: Gradual sunset. Dual system until transition complete.

WHAT YOU’LL SEE

Bank “maintenance” at odd hours.

ATM outages during sync windows.

Strange deposit/withdrawal delays = ledger cutovers.

Emails/texts with one-time biometric codes.

WHY THEY FEAR IT:

QFS kills fraud. No laundering. No secret wars. No phantom trillions.When the old system gasps, their power evaporates.

EBS TIE-IN: EBS = the voice. QFS = the vault. Packets of disclosure ride side-by-side with packets of settlement. You will SEE the truth while you RECEIVE the reset.

HOW TO PREPARE:

Keep cash for 7–10 days. Transition may cause local freezes. Watch email/text carefully — codes arrive quietly. Don’t click “bank upgrade” scams. Official packets are direct, quantum-synced. Save every instruction you receive.

SYMBOL KEYS: Keys = access packets. Trumpets = sync tones. Vault = QFS ledger. Phoenix = rebirth of finance.

BOTTOM LINE: QFS is not just money. It is the proof humanity was always enslaved by numbers that never existed. When packets drop, remember: debt dies, sovereignty begins.

Militia Man  There's a lot to unpack.  It's not just about one little thing.  It's a very complex process.  The bottom line is they have quietly accumulated all of this technology and all these different components for what we are looking for...a real effective exchange rate.

Mnt Goat   Article:  "IRAQ AND THE KURDISTAN REGION REACHED AN OIL AGREEMENT"  Article Quote:  "The  condition for implementing this decision is that the Iraqi government submits the contract to the advisory committee of the Iraqi Oil Ministry. The committee is expected to give its final answer within the next 48 hours, so that the tripartite deal can be formalized and go into effect."   This could lead Iraq to finally getting an Oil and Gas Law (referendum) in place as the constitution call for and the US and IMF are mandating and put in place.

Frank26   What is it that we needed in order to have the new exchange rate, purchasing power for the citizens?  Security and stability.  Digital currency is a supreme level of security and stability...IMO the lower notes are digital currency that is eventually going to be phased out and turned into electrons.  That's why they give them the cards.

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

How The West Screwed Itself in Energy Geopolitics

The Tianjin summit revealed a historic energy and financial realignment, with Russia, China, and India reshaping global power away from the West.

The Tianjin Summit and the Power of Siberia 2
The Shanghai Cooperation Organisation summit in Tianjin was more than symbolic diplomacy. The “binding memorandum” for the Power of Siberia 2 pipeline underscored a fundamental redirection of energy flows. What once fueled German factories and Europe’s industrial rise will soon underpin China’s long-term growth.

Collapse of a decades-old model: Russian gas for European manufacturing exports.

• Sanctions backfire: By weaponizing sanctions and sabotaging pipelines, the West dismantled its own foundation.

• Eastward pivot: Russia is securing new, long-term energy ties with China.

India’s Defiance and the Breaking Point with Washington
India’s role is equally significant. Facing U.S. tariffs on its Russian oil purchases, New Delhi openly defied Washington.

• Strategic shift: Prime Minister Modi aligned with Russia and China at Tianjin.

• Financial independence: India is bypassing dollar-based systems through BRICS trade frameworks.

• Dollar erosion: Every transaction outside the dollar weakens U.S. financial dominance.

Europe’s Self-Inflicted Wound
Europe’s sanctions have backfired spectacularly.

• German deindustrialization: Higher energy costs cripple competitiveness.

• U.S. LNG dependence: Europe traded cheap Russian gas for costly American LNG.

• Asia’s gain: Russia found stable demand in China, undercutting Washington’s LNG ambitions.

Brzezinski’s Grand Chessboard Unravels
For decades, U.S. strategy sought to prevent a Berlin-Moscow axis. That plan has collapsed.

• Eurasian cooperation deepens: Russia, China, and India are now coordinating more closely than ever.

• Parallel finance emerging: Moves away from SWIFT and toward commodity-backed alternatives signal a structural reset.

• Strategic miscalculation: U.S. actions have unified its rivals instead of dividing them.

Why This Matters
The West’s miscalculations have:

• Weakened Europe’s economy

• Alienated India from Washington

• Pushed Russia and China into closer partnership

What began as an energy realignment is rapidly becoming a monetary realignment, with BRICS preparing to challenge dollar dominance.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

Institutional Demand Grows With New Crypto Treasuries and SEC Reforms

Public companies and regulators are laying the foundation for a deeper integration of digital assets into the financial system.

Corporate Treasuries Signal Adoption
Nasdaq-listed Helius Medical Technologies launched a $500 million treasury reserve built around Solana, marking one of the largest corporate Solana initiatives to date.

• The company priced an oversubscribed private placement, raising $500 million in equity and up to $750 million in warrants.

• Helius will scale Solana holdings over 12–24 months while exploring staking and lending to generate additional revenue.

Institutional Capital Expands
Standard Chartered’s SC Ventures announced a $250 million digital asset investment fund backed by Middle Eastern investors, signaling cross-border institutional alignment.

SEC Opens the Door for Broader ETFs
The SEC approved new generic listing standards to speed up crypto ETF reviews on Nasdaq, NYSE Arca, and Cboe BZX. It also greenlit Grayscale’s Digital Large Cap Fund (GLDC), the first multi-asset crypto exchange-traded product in the U.S.

Why This Matters
Institutional demand, corporate treasuries, and regulatory reform are converging into a structural shift in capital allocation. This marks a new phase of digital integration into global markets.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

EU’s Landmark Crypto Law Runs Into National Frictions

Europe’s MiCA regulation promised unity, but national regulators are fracturing the vision of a single crypto market.

The Promise of MiCA
The Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation was designed to allow one license to unlock access to all 27 EU nations, positioning Europe as a unified competitor to the U.S.

National Pushback
Instead of harmonization, France, Italy, and Austria are raising concerns about regulatory arbitrage, warning companies may gravitate to the most lenient jurisdictions.

Old Habits Resurface
Experts point to MiFID as precedent, where uniformity broke down and hubs like Cyprus and Malta attracted firms seeking lighter oversight. Without consistency, MiCA risks the same fate.

Startups Under Pressure
While larger players see opportunity, startups warn compliance costs may drive them out of business, favoring incumbents with resources.

Why This Matters
The EU’s bid to lead in crypto regulation will hinge on its ability to enforce true harmonization across 27 nations. Failure risks creating another fragmented system that drives innovation elsewhere.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

“Tidbits From TNT” Saturday Morning 9-20-2025

TNT:

Tishwash:  Al-Sudani: There is a major economic transformation in Iraq... Investments total $100 billion.

 Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani announced today, Thursday, September 18, 2025, that the volume of investments in Iraq has reached $100 billion.

A statement from the Prime Minister's Office, received by Baghdad Today, stated that al-Sudani "met a group of tribal sheikhs, dignitaries and academic elites from the people of the Karrada area, at the guest house of Sheikh Mahdi al-Hakak, and expressed his thanks for the invitation and the good opportunity to meet this group of the people of Karrada, the city that made sacrifices during the rule of the dictatorial regime and after the change in 2003, as it turned into a target for terrorism, and is also distinguished by embracing prominent names in the fields of politics, commerce, sports, culture and other fields."

Al-Sudani explained, according to the statement, that "the government has implemented the first package of demands that the people of Karrada had previously submitted to him, and work is underway on the second package, pointing to the state of stability and security throughout Iraq, where the security services are imposing their full control."

Al-Sudani stressed "the necessity of participating in the upcoming elections, with awareness, to ensure accurate selection, which means cutting halfway to the security, stability and development we seek. He also stressed the importance of overcoming the mistakes of the past stages, by prioritizing the national interest."

He promised, "Boycotting the elections is not the solution, and will be a gift to the corrupt and anyone with an agenda that does not serve the country," indicating that "countries of the world look at Iraq today with respect and appreciation for its achievements in many fields."

He pointed out that "the presence of major international companies operating in Iraq is a sign of its recovery, and there is a major economic transformation in Iraq, with the volume of investments reaching $100 billion, meaning that it is a safe and stable country and an attractive environment for investment."

The Prime Minister indicated that "Iraq is a large workshop, and in every governorate there is ongoing work to provide services according to a well-thought-out vision and plan. Integrity is one of the most important criteria for political work, and it is necessary to prioritize the public interest over partisan and factional interests."

He stressed, "The future belongs to the youth, who constitute 60%, and it is our duty to provide job opportunities for them and secure their future." link

Tishwash:  Government advisor: Economic reforms have put Iraq on a new path to growth and stability.

 Written by Dr. Saleh Mahoud Salman / Advisor to the Prime Minister 

Prime Minister Salih Mahoud Salman, advisor to the prime minister, affirmed on Friday that the economic reforms adopted by the government have placed Iraq on a new path of growth and stability. While explaining that the country is steadily moving toward a more diversified and resilient economy that places people at the heart of development, he noted that the Development Road Project and the Faw Port are symbols of an economic future that connects Iraq to the world.

Speaking to the Iraqi News Agency (INA), Salman said, "Iraq stands today at a historic crossroads, after its foreign and gold reserves increased, and its investment and infrastructure projects expanded, on a path that establishes a more diversified and resilient economy that places people at the heart of development."

He explained, "The Iraqi economy is not just numbers in the budget or data issued by financial institutions. Rather, it is the story of a country that has suffered for decades from successive crises that have left their mark on people's lives and daily livelihoods."

He added, "Since the 1980s, Iraq has been mired in a cycle of wars and sanctions, which have excluded its banks from the global financial system, weakened its ability to attract investment, and led to an almost total dependence on oil revenues. After 2003, despite the significant opening to international markets, a significant portion of the banks remained little more than 'fronts' for selling currency through the central bank window, unable to practice modern banking. Meanwhile, public companies remained a heavy burden on the budget, without a productive return commensurate with the resources they consumed."

He continued, "This bleak picture is accompanied by other problems, most notably high unemployment and poverty rates, weak productive sectors, heavy bureaucracy, and corruption that has drained the state's resources."

Salman pointed out that, "In the face of these complex challenges, Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani's government program came with a set of central priorities, with economic reform at the forefront, along with reforming the banking system, activating electronic payments, completing the unified treasury, improving the business environment, and reforming the tax and customs systems. Thus, Iraq began to prepare for a new phase, after the government realized that continuing with the old approach was no longer a viable option."

He added, "Hence, the need to confront the heavy economic legacy that has shackled the country for decades emerged. The economy remained captive to oil rents, while the agricultural and industrial production sectors declined, and unemployment and poverty rates rose. Perhaps the first step was to reconsider the role of public companies and the government apparatus. Supreme committees were formed to restructure them according to a new philosophy that makes the state a 'manager, not an owner.' This represented the beginning of a comprehensive reform process that paves the way for a more resilient economy."

Salman pointed out, "While these efforts were related to the institutional structure, financial reform represented the other side of the process. The adoption of a three-year budget (2023-2025) was not merely an accounting measure, but rather an unprecedented step that focused on investment spending rather than operational spending. It also launched tax reform packages aimed at raising collection by 30 percent by 2025. With the adoption of a unified treasury and the shift to automation and electronic payment, these decisions quickly reflected in revenues, which recorded a significant jump of more than 100 percent compared to previous years."

Ali emphasized that "although budget control was necessary, financial sector reform alone is not sufficient without addressing the core of the economy, represented by the banking system. This is where the launch of the new trade finance platform in November 2022 changed the nature of banking in Iraq."

He continued, "By linking foreign transfers to private banks under the supervision of the Central Bank, the parallel market was brought under control, and the difference between the official and parallel rates was reduced by more than 60 percent. In parallel, the restructuring of Rafidain and Rashid Banks began with international support, transforming the banks from mere currency brokers into modern financial institutions. The US Treasury even described this step as a 'historic achievement.'"

He pointed out that "from the womb of these banking transformations emerged the electronic payment experiment, which quickly became the most prominent title of reform. As soon as government departments were obligated to use it, the experiment expanded to include the private sector, with points of sale increasing from 10,000 in 2022 to 50,000 in 2025, and the volume of monthly payments jumping from 90 billion dinars to more than 500 billion.

The number of bank cards also increased to 22 million, and the financial inclusion rate jumped from less than 10 percent to 40 percent in just three years, an achievement the World Bank considered unique compared to stable countries that took a full decade to achieve what Iraq accomplished in two years."

“Because money needs an environment that can absorb it, it was only natural for reforms to extend to the field of investment and infrastructure,” Salman said. “Thus, the ‘Development Road’ project and the Grand Faw Port were born as symbols of an economic future linking the Gulf to Europe. Agreements were signed with the World Bank to finance projects in railways, energy, and water.

Internally, Iraq has begun to localize pharmaceutical and construction industries and open industrial projects of various sizes, in addition to launching solar energy initiatives in factories to relieve pressure on the national grid. Thus, reforms have become more comprehensive, not limited to money and banks, but extending to the productive and developmental infrastructure.”

He continued, "While plans and policies are important, numbers remain the truest witness to the magnitude of the transformation. Foreign reserves rose to $106 billion in March 2025, up from $86 billion at the end of 2022, a growth rate of more than 12 percent. Gold reserves rose from 130 tons to 163 tons during the same period, an increase of 25 percent. Inflation declined from 7.5 percent to 2.7 percent, reflecting tangible monetary stability."

He added, "In the banking sector, the number of accounts doubled from eight million to twenty million, and the number of bank cards increased from sixteen to twenty-two million. The electronic payment infrastructure also made a significant leap, with points of sale increasing from ten thousand to fifty thousand, and monthly payments increasing by 460%."

He pointed out that "these indicators did not stop there, as the gap between the official and parallel rates decreased by more than sixty percent, and the financial inclusion rate rose to forty percent after being less than ten percent just two years ago. International financing agreements worth $1.2 billion were signed, and tax revenues increased in 2024 by about thirty percent compared to the previous year.

 In the field of digital transformation, the "OR" electronic portal and the electronic passport were launched, and authentication of issuance transactions were canceled through the secure documents system, which processed more than fifteen million transactions. As for customs, revenues rose to 2.131 trillion dinars in 2024 compared to 1.03 trillion in 2023, an increase of 106%, and a growth rate of 128% compared to before 2022."

Salman emphasized that "the transformations were not limited to finance and revenues, but also included development initiatives. The Central Bank and government banks launched programs to support housing, renewable energy, youth entrepreneurship, and industrial cities. The Iraq Development Fund was also established as a new financing arm. In the industrial sector, practical steps were taken to localize the pharmaceutical and construction industries, various production projects were opened, and initiatives were launched to equip factories with solar energy, in addition to signing agreements with global industrial unions."

He pointed out that, "Despite all these results, it is undeniable that the road ahead is still full of challenges. Oil remains the backbone of the budget, and bureaucracy and corruption remain major obstacles to consolidating reform. Nevertheless, the government's goals through 2026 appear both ambitious and realistic: reducing dependence on oil to less than 85% of revenues, reducing the fiscal deficit to less than 3% of GDP, improving Iraq's credit rating, and completing the digital transformation of public finances."

He continued, "Thus, Iraq today stands at a historic crossroads. After decades of crises and turmoil, reforms have begun to become tangible facts, demonstrated by numbers and indicators. While the road is still long, what has been achieved in such a short period proves that change is possible when there is political will and a clear vision."

He pointed out that "Iraq has begun to take steady steps toward a more diversified and resilient economy, one that places people at the heart of development and gives future generations hope for a nation capable of rising again."  link

$10K Gold Revaluation = Massive Inflation | Matthew Piepenburg

Liberty and Finance:  9-19-2025

Matthew Piepenburg argued that growing discussions around gold revaluation reflect desperation at the highest levels of finance.

 He explained that revaluing gold against the dollar would be an admission that current debt levels and monetary distortions are unsustainable, and that only anchoring to real assets can restore trust.

At the same time, he noted that the push for stablecoins shows policymakers are searching for new ways to maintain control over a failing currency system.

To him, both ideas highlight that the existing fiat model is nearing exhaustion.

 Piepenburg warned that ordinary citizens who hold no gold will be the ones most hurt when the dollar is deliberately weakened in a reset scenario.

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

Russia, Vietnam Use Energy Profits to Bypass US Sanctions for Arms Deals

A secretive oil-for-arms mechanism reveals how global powers are rewriting financial pathways outside U.S. control.

A Backdoor Sanctions Evasion Strategy

Internal Vietnamese documents obtained by the Associated Press show that Russia and Vietnam have created a mechanism to conceal arms deal payments by channeling profits from joint oil and gas ventures.

Instead of moving cash through the SWIFT system—long controlled by Western oversight—Vietnam is using profits from its Rusvietpetro venture in Siberia to pay off defense contracts with Moscow. Excess profits then move back into Vietnam through joint ventures with Russian oil companies, completing the cycle without crossing Western banking networks.

This arrangement is designed not just to maintain military ties but also to sidestep the very financial infrastructure the U.S. uses to enforce sanctions.

Why This Mechanism Matters

By avoiding international transfers, Russia and Vietnam are insulating themselves from secondary sanctions under U.S. law. It’s a sophisticated workaround:

• Step 1: Vietnamese profits from Siberian oil operations repay Russian defense credit.

• Step 2: Excess profits flow to Russian state energy firms.

• Step 3: Russia’s local ventures in Vietnam return equal sums to PetroVietnam, bypassing global financial systems.

As one analyst noted, “It’s not your typical flexible financing… it’s next-level stuff.”

This isn’t just creative accounting—it’s the deliberate construction of an alternative financial system.

The Broader Context

The U.S. is working to deepen its economic and defense relationship with Vietnam as part of its Indo-Pacific strategy against China. Yet at the same time, Vietnam is strengthening ties with Moscow to secure military supplies.

For Russia, cut off from Western capital markets, these oil-linked payments are a lifeline. For Vietnam, they are a way to preserve both Russian defense cooperation and U.S. trade benefits while navigating sanctions risk.

The mechanism mirrors earlier Russian deals in Southeast Asia, where Moscow traded arms for commodities like palm oil or coffee. This time, however, the stakes are higher: the system directly bypasses Western-controlled finance and exposes cracks in U.S. sanctions enforcement.

Financial Restructuring in Motion

At the heart of this arrangement lies a bigger story: the shift away from Western-dominated financial architecture.

• Energy revenues are being re-tasked as covert financial flows.

• Sanctions enforcement is pushing nations to create parallel systems of value exchange.

• Military deals and resource profits are blending into closed financial loops beyond Washington’s reach.

For Vietnam, this strengthens its strategic autonomy; for Russia, it represents survival in the face of escalating sanctions. For the global system, it accelerates the fragmentation of financial power.

Why This Matters

The oil-for-arms mechanism between Russia and Vietnam illustrates how nations are actively building workarounds to U.S.-centric financial dominance. While sanctions remain a primary American tool, their effectiveness erodes when countries find ways to bypass SWIFT, dollar clearing, and Western oversight altogether.

Key Takeaway: What appears to be an arms deal financing trick is in reality a sign of broader restructuring—energy, finance, and security are merging into closed systems outside U.S. reach.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

BRICS Gold-Backed System Sparks Sovereignty Push vs US Dollar

The BRICS gold reserve strategy signals a decisive move away from dollar dominance, laying the groundwork for a new financial order.

Asset-Backed Currencies Re-Entering the System
BRICS nations have pooled over 6,000 tonnes of gold — about 20–21% of global central bank holdings — to back a new currency initiative. While not a classical gold standard, the effort introduces commodity-anchored credibility to trade settlements. Russia leads with 2,335.85 metric tons, closely followed by China at 2,298.53 metric tons, underscoring their dominance in the bloc’s monetary reengineering.

Trade Settlement Beyond SWIFT
The initiative is about more than gold. BRICS countries are actively developing payment infrastructure that bypasses the SWIFT system. This allows trade settlements free from dollar dependency, creating parallel financial plumbing to serve global commerce.

De-Dollarization as Strategic Sovereignty
By insulating themselves from the reach of U.S. sanctions, BRICS nations are turning gold into a geopolitical shield. Russia and China alone control nearly three-quarters of BRICS’ combined gold reserves, giving them the strategic leverage to challenge dollar hegemony.

Ripple Effect Across Global Finance
Even before full launch, the anticipation of a BRICS gold-backed settlement system is influencing global behavior. Nations are reassessing reserve strategies and trade alignments, accelerating the trend of de-dollarization across emerging markets.

Why This Matters
The contrast is stark: while the U.S. is preoccupied with regulatory battles and leadership struggles at institutions like the CFTC, BRICS is executing structural changes that rewire trade and finance in real time. These parallel tracks — digital oversight in the West and hard-asset backing in the East — are converging toward the same destination: a new financial order.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

Ariel: Vietnam is on the Verge of a Currency Revaluation

Ariel: Vietnam is on the Verge of a Currency Revaluation

9-19-2025

Vietnam On The Verge? The IMF Concludes In Favor Of Currency Adjustment (The Green Light)

What Article IV Really Means for the Dong

At its core, the Article IV consultation is the IMF’s deep dive into a nation’s economic health, assessing policies and risks with unflinching precision.

Directors emphasized that Vietnam’s economy, rebounding to 6.9% growth in early 2025 despite global volatility, is resilient enough to handle shocks through a more flexible exchange rate.

They urged modernization of the monetary policy framework to mitigate risks, explicitly recommending a shift from strict State Bank of Vietnam interventions to a managed float where supply, demand, and investor confidence dictate value.

This isn’t speculation; it’s a formal IMF push for the Dong to breathe freely, setting the stage for appreciation that could multiply holdings overnight.

Echoes from Iraq: The SOMO Agreement as a Global Precursor

This Vietnamese breakthrough doesn’t stand alone it’s amplified by seismic shifts in Iraq, where the State Oil Marketing Organization (SOMO) is finalizing critical oil agreements that pave the way for currency stability.

Just weeks ago, on September 6, 2025, SOMO advanced talks with ExxonMobil for storage and refining in Singapore, alongside wrapping Kurdish oil contracts to resume federal exports under the 2025 budget law.

These pacts, supplying at least 230,000 barrels per day, are the linchpin for Iraq’s economic unification, directly tying into the release of a new exclusive exchange rate for the Dinar mirroring Vietnam’s path but rooted in oil wealth.

Navigating the Road Ahead with Informed Patience

As we stand on this precipice, remember: revaluation isn’t instantaneous, but the IMF’s unequivocal recommendation for managed market determination eradicates the biggest hurdle.

 Vietnam’s authorities, buoyed by 2025’s strong start, are poised to implement reforms swiftly, with the State Bank signaling pilot floats by year-end.

 Iraq’s SOMO, having ended Kurdish contract overhangs, eyes full resumption by October, triggering the exclusive rate.

For U.S. holders, this duo heralds a life-changing pivot stay vigilant, diversify wisely, and prepare for the influx. The wait has forged resilience; now, it yields revolution.

News, Rumors and Opinions Friday 9-19-2025

Note: All intel should be considered as "Rumors" until we receive official announcements ...and “Rates and Dates” could change anytime until we get to the banks/redemption centers.

RV Excerpts from the Restored Republic via a GCR: Update as of Fri. 19 September 2025

Compiled Fri. 19 September 2025 12:01 am EST by Judy Byington

Summary:

Today, September 19, 2025, marks not just another Friday, but a pivotal moment in the unfolding narrative of a world reborn.

Based on the latest intel compiled by Judy Byington, MSW, LCSW, a seismic shift is not just coming; it’s here, and its effects are already rippling across the globe.

Judy Byington suggests that the moment we hear the Emergency Broadcast System (EBS) activate with the iconic sound of Seven Trumpets, our personal notification system will begin.

Expect a flurry of messages on your cell phones,(allegedly)  directly from the advanced Starlink Satellite System.

For those holding foreign currencies like the Iraqi Dinar or Vietnamese Dong, or Zim Bonds, these appointments are where you will conduct your exchanges.

For those without, this is your opportunity to set up new Quantum Financial System (QFS) banking accounts and access the benefits of this new era.

For “us” – Tier 4b, the Internet Group – the wait is almost over! Notification to book your currency exchange, Zim Bond redemption, and Med Bed appointments is imminent. Remember, these will (allegedly)  be booked through the highly secure Starlink Satellite System via a national/global number linked to a Military secure website, not via traditional texts or emails.

A Word of Caution on Exchange Rates: While some banks (Chase, Wells Fargo, HSBC) (allegedly)   opened on Monday, September 15, 2025, for general public Dinar/Dong exchanges, these rates are significantly lower than what will be offered through official Redemption Centers. Patience is key for optimal results!

The Quantum Financial System is the heart of this new era. Described as a secure, instant, and transparent alternative to traditional banking, it leverages quantum computing, resists fraud, and records transfers on a distributed ledger.

Julian Assange on Telegram confirmed as of September 12, 2025, the QFS is running at full speed! Globalists(allegedly)   cannot stop it. Tier 3 humanitarian operators, military retirees, and early adopters are already (allegedly)  seeing SHI transactions!

President Trump (allegedly)  continues to sign daily executive orders to push the QFS rollout forward, with military teams enforcing GESARA compliance worldwide. Quantum nodes are reconciling transactions 24/7.

This is not a drill. The reset is here. The Fed is collapsing, the elites are losing control

The time for speculation is over. The great shift is upon us. Prepare for the EBS, listen for the Seven Trumpets, and get ready for your Starlink notifications. This new era, (allegedly)  gold-backed, secured by your DNA, and protected by the military alliance, awaits.

Step into the new era!

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

US, UK to Collaborate on AI, Quantum Computing, Nuclear Energy Development

Washington and London strike a landmark tech pact, signaling a shift in global power competition.

A Strategic Memorandum with Global Implications

US President Donald Trump and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) on Thursday during Trump’s state visit to the United Kingdom.

The agreement outlines joint development in artificial intelligence, nuclear energy, telecommunications, and quantum computing—all critical sectors shaping the next generation of global infrastructure.

While the MOU is not legally binding, its scope shows intent: joint research initiatives, interoperability standards, and even 6G development. At its core, this deal reinforces something larger—the restructuring of global finance and power through technology.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

Quantum Computing and the Crypto Connection

One of the most significant elements is quantum computing. The US-UK task force will develop hardware, software, and algorithms with interoperability standards.

In the crypto world, this development is pivotal. Sufficiently powerful quantum computers could disrupt existing encryption models that safeguard digital assets. The fact that Washington and London are leading this race suggests they see control over quantum systems not just as a military or commercial advantage, but also as a tool to steer the future of money and security.

Here, technology and finance converge—innovation becomes a weapon in the struggle for financial dominance.

AI, 6G, and the Economic Power Play

Trump stressed the investment impact:

“This trip has galvanized $350 billion in deals across many sectors… We are committed to ensuring that the UK is a secure and reliable supply of the best AI hardware and software on Earth.”

With Trump also citing $17 trillion invested in the US over the last year, it’s clear that these technological pushes are part of a broader financial realignment strategy. AI and 6G networks will drive future trade, intelligence, and digital commerce—every piece reinforcing the dollar-led order in competition with BRICS and other rising blocs.

What looks like tech cooperation is, in fact, economic positioning in a financial restructuring already underway.

A Golden Nuclear Age

The announcement also highlighted collaboration on nuclear fusion—hailed as the potential future of limitless clean energy. By investing in advanced reactors, both the US and UK aim to secure energy independence, strengthening their supply chains and removing reliance on adversarial sources.

Energy security has always been tied to financial dominance. Control over nuclear and fusion tech means control over the backbone of industrial power, and ultimately, monetary leverage in a de-dollarizing world.

This is not simply about energy—it is about ensuring financial supremacy in the decades ahead.

Why This Matters

This memorandum may not yet change laws, but it maps out the architecture of tomorrow’s world order:

• AI, quantum, and 6G as control points for commerce and finance.

• Nuclear fusion as leverage over global energy pricing and reserves.

• Anglo-American coordination ensuring Western dominance in the technology-driven economy.

The deal is less about research labs and more about shaping financial and energy flows in the decades ahead.

Key Takeaway: Washington and London are aligning to secure the technologies that underpin global finance and security. What looks like a science partnership is actually an economic and monetary power play.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

White House Eyes Other Candidates for CFTC Chair as Quintenz Confirmation Stalls

Crypto regulation takes center stage as Trump weighs new leadership at the CFTC.

A Search for Leadership in Uncertain Times

The Trump administration is actively considering backup candidates for the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) as Brian Quintenz’s confirmation remains stalled. Bloomberg reports that potential contenders include officials with cryptocurrency regulation expertise, reflecting how central digital assets have become in U.S. financial policy.

This is not a simple personnel shuffle. It reveals that the administration views the CFTC chairmanship as a critical post in shaping the regulatory and financial framework of the digital economy.

The CFTC’s Expanding Role in Digital Assets

Congress is currently developing legislation to expand the CFTC’s powers over crypto markets, cementing its place as one of the most influential agencies in digital asset oversight. Unlike the SEC, which has leaned heavily on enforcement, the CFTC is being positioned to act as the market’s stabilizer—regulating derivatives, spot markets, and systemic risks.

This is where the financial restructuring angle emerges: whoever leads the CFTC will effectively steer how crypto integrates into the broader financial system. Decisions on derivatives approvals, stablecoin oversight, and futures markets all tie back into how money flows globally.

Political Drama Meets Financial Power

Quintenz, Trump’s nominee, has faced resistance both in the Senate and within the crypto industry itself. Notably, the Winklevoss twins—staunch Trump supporters and key crypto financiers—have openly opposed him, arguing that his approach is out of alignment with the administration’s policy.

The dispute intensified when Quintenz alleged that the twins lobbied against his nomination after he declined to pursue Gemini’s complaint against the CFTC staff. This clash isn’t just personal; it highlights the tug-of-war between regulators, industry players, and political powerbrokers over who gets to shape the rules of the new financial order.

Why This Matters

The CFTC chair isn’t just another Washington appointment. In 2025, the position will define:

• How crypto assets are classified and traded in U.S. markets.

• Whether derivatives and futures tied to tokens like XRP, Bitcoin, and stablecoins expand liquidity globally.

• How America positions itself in the race against BRICS nations building parallel financial systems.

The chair’s decision-making will ripple far beyond U.S. borders, influencing whether digital assets strengthen or weaken dollar dominance in the global economy.

Key Takeaway: The stalled nomination underscores how crypto regulation has become inseparable from the contest over financial power. Choosing the right CFTC leader is less about politics and more about setting the foundation of tomorrow’s monetary system.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

“Tidbits From TNT” Friday Morning 9-19-2025

TNT:

Tishwash:  Iraq remains America's darling...the Supreme Court dismisses a lawsuit against Baghdad for hundreds of millions.

The Supreme Court in Washington ruled on Wednesday (September 17, 2025) to prevent an American military affairs company from fining the Iraqi government $121 million in a lawsuit related to breach of contract to rehabilitate Iraqi army weapons.

According to a Bloomberg report translated by Baghdad Today, Wy Oak Technology, a military-related company, filed a lawsuit against the Iraqi government, seeking $121 million in damages for the contract's suspension.

The Supreme Court affirmed that "Iraq is protected under the U.S. Foreign Immunity Act," noting that this law protects foreign governments from prosecution in such cases, even in the presence of formally signed contracts.

The report added that the court's decision means Iraq retains "immunity," which prevents companies and commercial entities from being sued within the United States, whether for breaches of contract or damages resulting from operating in Iraq.

The roots of this immunity date back to the aftermath of the 2003 invasion of Iraq, when the US Congress passed a special law signed by former President George W. Bush, known as the "Iraq Freedom from Judicial Attachment Act," which granted Iraq exceptional protection from lawsuits and seizures. Experts interpreted this move as maintaining Iraq's status as a "spoiled child" in US politics, amid subsequent presidential successions that ensured this privilege would continue for two full decades.  link

Tishwash:  The Oil Minister affirms the government's support for the Iraq Investment Forum to attract foreign capital.

Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Oil, Hayan Abdul-Ghani, reviewed today, Thursday, the preparations for the Iraq Investment Forum, stressing the government's support for the Iraq Investment Forum to attract foreign capital.

A statement by the Ministry of Oil stated: "Abdul Ghani met with a delegation from the Preparatory Committee for the Iraq Investment Forum, headed by Ibrahim Al-Masoudi Al-Baghdadi, Chairman of the Iraqi Economic Council and member of the Preparatory Committee."

The statement added that "the Chairman of the Council provided a detailed explanation of the dialogue session for the Ministry of Oil, which is scheduled to be chaired by the Minister of Oil on September 27. During the meeting, investment opportunities presented by the Ministry of Oil were discussed, which aim to attract investments in the oil and gas sector and petroleum industries.

" It continued, "The meeting discussed logistical preparations and preparations related to sending invitations to the relevant ministers, including the Turkish and Lebanese Ministers of Oil."

The Minister stressed "his keenness to support the forum, which reflects the government's direction towards revitalizing the national economy and attracting foreign capital."

The statement indicated that "the meeting was attended by the Executive Director of the Economic Council, Thabet Kazim Al-Safi, and the Assistant Director General of the Economic Department at the National Investment Commission, Hussein Ali Kanbar, in addition to Hazem Al-Shammari from the Media and Relations Department."   link

Tishwash:  Abu Raghif inaugurates the e-signature conference in Baghdad to promote digital payments and secure transformation.

The "Activating Electronic Signatures to Support E-Payment" conference kicked off in Baghdad today, Thursday, under the title "Towards a Trusted Digital Environment." The conference, held under the patronage of the Prime Minister and under the supervision of the Central Bank and the Communications and Media Commission, brought together ministries, government institutions, and local and international technology companies.

In his speech during the opening session, which was followed by {Euphrates News}, the Chairman of the Communications and Media Commission, Nofal Abu Ragheef, said: “The conference represents a fundamental step in building a secure digital environment that supports the national economy, under the sponsorship and essential partnership of the Communications and Media Commission as the regulatory body for this vast sector, confirming its tireless pursuit of real partnerships with financial technology (FinTech) companies to develop innovative financial services that respond to the needs of citizens in the digital age.”

Abu Raghif added, "The success of this project requires responsible institutional strengthening of information security, which is the cornerstone of data protection and ensuring digital trust, as well as developing the infrastructure and encouraging informed investment in this field." He emphasized the authority's commitment to implementing applicable legislation, most notably the Electronic Signature and Electronic Transactions Law, in line with international standards and regulations of the International Telecommunication Union.

The Commission Chairman concluded his speech by emphasizing that "digital transformation is no longer just a regulatory option, but rather a national economic necessity," calling for "integrating the efforts of the state, the private sector, and international partners to build a sustainable digital economy that meets the demands of the times and serves the Iraqi citizen."  link

The Fed Just Became the World’s #1 Gold Salesman..

The Fed Just Became the World’s #1 Gold Salesman...

Notes From the Field By James Hickman (Simon Black)  September 18, 2025

To the surprise of absolutely no one, the Federal Reserve announced its decision yesterday to cut interest rates… and kept the door open to further rate cuts in the future.

The funny thing is that we’ll never truly know why.

Sure, it’s possible that Fed officials honestly felt that the economy needs lower rates (despite obviously persistent inflation risks).

Of course, it’s also possible that Fed Chairman Jerome Powell finally caved to all the insults and pressure from the President.

Or that the rest of the FOMC members looked at what’s happening with Lisa Cook and submitted to inevitability, fearing that they too would be investigated for mortgage fraud (or some other criminal matter) if they didn’t cut rates.

Again, we may never know their real motivations. But it’s clear that the White House has gotten its way.

The President and Treasury Secretary believe that lower rates will stimulate the economy, raise wages, raise asset prices, improve housing affordability, and broadly create conditions for economic prosperity… and they’ve been pushing hard for rate cuts.

Lower rates will also help bail out the US government— whose national debt is so gargantuan that the Treasury is set to spend $1.2 trillion this Fiscal Year (which ends on September 30) just to pay interest.

The Trump administration sees lower rates as the key to slashing that annual interest bill.

Of course, a better solution would be to cut spending, bring the budget closer into balance, and reduce America’s debt-to-GDP ratio.

Putting America’s fiscal house in order would also attract investment in US government bonds the old-fashioned way— by restoring confidence that the US Treasury can pay back its debts through growth, strength, and prestige.

But making such cuts is politically difficult. Even the party that claims to be fiscally conservative isn’t really that interested in meaningful spending cuts.

So, they’re going with Plan B-- push the Fed to lower interest rates.

But as we’ve argued before, they’re setting themselves up for disappointment.

Remember what happened last year— between September and December 2024, the Fed cut rates three times for a total of 1%. Yet over that same period, US government bond yields actually INCREASED by 1%.

This proves that the Fed can’t just snap its fingers and force interest rates lower simply by having a committee meeting.

Interest rates are ultimately determined by supply and demand for money. So if they Fed really wants to see lower rates, they’re going to have to intervene directly in the bond market.

They’ve done this many times before-- this is when the Fed ‘prints’ money, i.e. what they call “quantitative easing”. And the most recent example was during the pandemic when the Fed created about $5 trillion of new money.

They used that money to buy government bonds-- essentially creating artificial demand for Treasurys that pushed yields down to record lows.

And life felt pretty good for a while-- people were able to buy homes and finance mortgages at rates lower than 3%. The government was able to sell 10-year debt for less than 0.5%.

But all those trillions of dollars of new money from the Fed came at a consequence: inflation soared to 9%— the highest in decades.

This is the major tradeoff that the Fed is facing right now: the White House wants lower interest rates. And the Fed seems to be capitulating to the pressure.

But for interest rates to get really low (and remain there), the Fed will almost certainly have to engage in more Quantitative Easing… and that means more inflation.

That alone is going to push a lot more capital into the gold market.

For the past few years, foreign governments and central banks have been selling off their US dollar reserves and funneling that money into gold; this has been the primary reason why gold has soared to all-time highs.

And with the Fed’s capitulation on rates, this trend will continue.

It’s also very likely that pension funds, insurance funds, and other long-term institutional investors will seek refuge in gold as well, driving the price even higher.

To be clear, this isn’t a prediction that gold is going to go up every day, or every month, or even every year.

But if you take a longer-term view—say, 8 to 10 years when the US national debt hits $60 trillion and Social Security runs out of funds— the case for owning gold becomes even more compelling.

I don’t hold this view because I’m a “gold bug”. I’m not fanatical about a hunk of metal. But I do understand these long-term trends, and in my view, we’re still in the early innings.

Another option is to buy gold-related companies, which can offer powerful leverage to the metal itself.

Central banks buy physical gold. They do not buy shares of gold companies. That’s why, even as gold surged, many of the companies we researched traded at dirt-cheap valuations—as low as 2-3x earnings in some cases.

But investors are starting to catch on and pay attention to these deeply undervalued businesses; in fact, we’ve seen several companies in our portfolio gain up to 4x, some even just over the last few months.

Given that Q3 earnings are coming up just around the corner, we believe that some of these gold (and related silver and platinum) companies are about to post record earnings and could see their share prices soar even more.

If you’re interested, we publish all of this investment research, including detailed analysis of deeply undervalued gold companies, in our premium service.

30-50% Market Crash Incoming, Trillions will be Erased

30-50% Market Crash Incoming, Trillions will be Erased

Commodity Culture:  9-17-2025

Are you feeling the squeeze? The rising cost of living, the persistent worry about the future – you’re not alone. And according to one financial expert, things could be set for a much bigger shift than many realize.

In a recent, highly illuminating discussion on Commodity Culture, financial analyst Michael Pento joined host Jesse Day to deliver a sobering message.

Pento isn’t just seeing a few frayed threads in the economic fabric; he’s sounding the alarm on a “multitude of epic bubbles” that he believes are poised for a catastrophic burst.

Perhaps the most chilling aspect of Pento’s warning concerns the backbone of our society: the middle class. Already grappling with persistent inflation eroding purchasing power and wage growth that stubbornly refuses to keep pace, the middle class, Pento argues, is being “completely crushed into poverty.”

This economic pressure cooker has a direct and dangerous link to the credit markets. As everyday families struggle to make ends meet, their ability to service debt diminishes, creating a critical vulnerability in the entire system.

According to Pento, the real danger isn’t merely a slow leak; it’s a catastrophic rupture, beginning with a collapse in the credit markets. This isn’t just about banks; it’s about the lifeblood of commerce and personal finance.

 Once credit seizes up, the dominoes fall swiftly, leading to an estimated 30 to 50% crash in the stock market.

And here’s where Pento’s forecast becomes truly grim: he estimates that this kind of market correction could take decades to fully recover. This isn’t a quick dip and rebound; it’s a long, arduous journey back to financial stability, profoundly impacting retirement plans, investments, and overall economic well-being for generations.

Pento’s insights on Commodity Culture paint a picture of significant economic upheaval. While such predictions can be unsettling, understanding the potential landscape is the first step toward navigating it. In times of economic uncertainty, knowledge truly is power.

For a deeper dive into Michael Pento’s detailed analysis, the driving forces behind these bubbles, and what it all means for your financial future, we highly recommend watching the full discussion from Commodity Culture.

Arm yourself with information, understand the risks, and prepare for what could be a very different economic horizon.
