Inside China & Russia's Basel III Gold Strategy

Inside China & Russia's Basel III Gold Strategy

Miles Harris:  7-10-2025

The global financial crisis of 2008 exposed vulnerabilities in the banking system, leading to the creation of Basel III.

Designed to fortify the global banking system, Basel III aimed to prevent future crises by imposing higher capital and funding costs on assets deemed riskier or less liquid. However, one surprising casualty of this rigorous framework has been the traditional role of gold within commercial banking portfolios.

At its core, Basel III sought to create a more resilient financial landscape. This meant increasing the stability of banks by ensuring they held sufficient capital to absorb potential losses and had adequate liquidity to meet their obligations.

This framework imposes heightened capital and funding requirements on assets deemed riskier or less liquid. Curiously, within this rigorous framework, gold found itself categorized as a “less liquid” asset. This classification immediately introduces significant liquidity costs, making it inherently more expensive for banks to hold.

The most impactful change, however, came with the Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR). Even when gold was securely allocated and held, Basel III assigned it a substantial 85 percent funding requirement under the NSFR. This marked a dramatic departure from its treatment under previous regulatory frameworks like Basel II, fundamentally altering the economics of holding gold.

 For any large commercial bank, maintaining significant gold positions essentially became economically unviable, if not “nearly unworkable,” due to these prohibitive costs and capital charges. The rationale being that even highly liquid assets require stable funding sources.

Yet, as major Western banks find themselves effectively deterred from accumulating substantial gold reserves, a contrasting trend emerges from the East. Gold-producing powerhouses like China and Russia have skillfully navigated these regulatory waters. Leveraging their unique positions as primary producers and perhaps national regulatory flexibilities, these nations have been actively amassing significant gold reserves.

This divergence creates a fascinating geopolitical dynamic, where the West’s financial regulations discourage gold accumulation by its commercial banks, while key players in the East are strategically strengthening their reserves.

The treatment of gold under Basel III presents a paradox: an asset historically viewed as a safe haven and store of value is now burdened with significant costs for banks.

This regulatory shift raises questions about the long-term implications for global financial systems, the role of central banks versus commercial banks in gold holdings, and the evolving power dynamics in the international monetary landscape.

For a deeper dive into these complex financial mechanics and their broader implications, watch the full video from Miles Harris for further insights and information.

BRICS+ are Big Enough to Dethrone the Dollar

BRICS+ are Big Enough to Dethrone the Dollar

Liberty and Finance:  7-9-2025

Financial expert Andy Schectman delivered a compelling address at the recent 2025 Rural Symposium on Natural Resource Investing, shedding light on major geopolitical and monetary developments centered around the burgeoning BRICS nations.

His presentation painted a picture of a rapidly evolving global financial landscape, one increasingly designed to operate independently of U.S. financial.

Schectman emphasized how strategic moves by key players are coalescing to form an entirely new financial infrastructure.

He highlighted the significant role of the Shanghai Metals Exchange and the groundbreaking launch of the M-Bridge settlement platform as foundational elements.

According to Schectman, these initiatives are paving the way for a financial system that is not only decentralized and gold-backed but also transparently audited via blockchain technology – a stark departure from the current U.S.-centric model.

The implications, Schectman warned, are profound. These developments, which include the expansion of multi-jurisdictional gold vaults and the accelerating internationalization of the Chinese yuan, pose a direct challenge to the U.S. dollar’s longstanding role.

 He cautioned that these initiatives threaten not only the dollar’s preeminent status in global trade settlement but potentially its critical reserve currency status.

Schectman underscored the strategic significance of these BRICS-aligned initiatives, noting their expansion to include an increasing number of non-member nations.

Critically, he pointed out that this emerging financial framework is being built specifically to circumvent transactions settled in the U.S. dollar, Euro, and British Pound. Schectman also took a moment to acknowledge and credit long-time investment strategist Rick Rule for his insightful guidance, suggesting these shifts align with broader, often overlooked, macro trends.

Concluding his address, Schectman issued a strong call to action, urging people to look beyond mainstream narratives regarding global finance.

He advised proactive engagement and informed decision-making, stressing that these monumental developments are progressing at an accelerated pace and will soon become too obvious to ignore for those who choose to remain uninformed.

Gold Surges Past Euro as Central Banks Brace for Dollar Crisis

Gold Surges Past Euro as Central Banks Brace for Dollar Crisis

Taylor Kenny:  7-8-2025

A significant tremor is reverberating through global financial markets, hinting at a profound shift in the very foundations of international trade and reserves.

Gold, the timeless store of value, has notably surged past the Euro, grabbing headlines and the attention of economists worldwide. But this isn’t just about price appreciation; it’s a symptom of a deeper, more strategic maneuver by central banks across the globe.

Why are these powerful financial institutions, traditionally anchored to the U.S. Dollar, loading up on gold at an unprecedented pace?

The answer, increasingly evident, points to a bracing for a potential Dollar Crisis.

For decades, the U.S. Dollar has reigned supreme as the world’s primary reserve currency, the backbone of international trade, and the preferred asset for central bank reserves. Its stability and liquidity were considered sacrosanct.

 However, a quiet but resolute shift has been underway, accelerating dramatically in recent years. Central banks, from emerging economies to established financial powers, are aggressively accumulating gold.

The collective actions of central banks send a powerful message: they perceive a growing vulnerability in the current dollar-centric system. The surge in gold prices, particularly its outperformance against currencies like the Euro, reflects this growing demand and the market’s acknowledgment of gold’s role as a safe haven in uncertain times.

This isn’t necessarily a prediction of an immediate collapse, but rather a prudent strategy to de-risk national balance sheets and prepare for a future where the dollar’s dominance may be significantly diminished.

By increasing their gold holdings, central banks are fortifying their reserves against potential currency volatility, geopolitical shocks, and a global financial reset.

The implications of this shift are profound. It signals a move towards a more diversified, and potentially more volatile, international monetary system. For individuals and investors, understanding these macro trends is crucial.

 The central bank gold rush isn’t just a financial headline; it’s a window into the strategies being employed at the highest levels of global finance to navigate a future where the rules of money may be fundamentally rewritten.

To gain deeper insights and comprehensive information on this unfolding global shift, it’s vital to stay informed.

 Watch the full video from ITM Trading with Taylor Kenney for further insights and expert analysis. Understanding why central banks are moving away from the dollar and towards gold is key to navigating the turbulent waters of the emerging global economy.

A Governing Council member from the European Central Bank says the ECB’s best unconventional instrument for steering monetary policy is a large-scale asset purchase. Here we go. These central bankers should just ask how large-scale QE has worked in Japan. Just a total circus.

Let’s connect the dots:

1. China is acquiring mineral assets globally at the fastest pace in over a decade.

2. China is also publicly hoarding gold… quietly, with many people questioning how much the country really has.

3. Gold is now the world’s second-largest reserve asset.

Globally?

4. Nations are calling for structural reform of the IMF and World Bank.

This isn’t random.

It’s a strategic realignment of the global financial order.

Gold is no longer on the sidelines; it’s moving to the center of the global financial stage. This shift has been telegraphed for years. The next chapter is now being written.

Seeds of Wisdom RV and Economic Updates Sunday Morning 7-6-25

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

 Europe Hopes To Avoid the Worst: A Possible Agreement With the USA This Weekend?
EU scrambles to avert tariff showdown as U.S. threatens up to 70% duties on exports

▪️ Europe faces a July 9 deadline from Washington to reach a trade deal or risk crippling tariffs by August 1.
▪️ Customs duties could rise to 70% on EU exports if no agreement is reached.
▪️ Brussels is pushing for a last-minute agreement to avoid a transatlantic trade war that could reshape global economic alignments.

As global trade dynamics continue to shift, Europe finds itself cornered by a hard deadline imposed by the U.S. administration. Former President Donald Trump—who is leading current trade policy—has issued an ultimatum: reach a bilateral deal by July 9 or face punitive tariffs beginning August 1.

Brussels is scrambling to de-escalate the situation. In a tense climate of accelerated diplomacy, an EU delegation is currently in Washington negotiating to prevent a tariff confrontation that could destabilize key European industries.

Tariff Escalation Threatens to Ignite Trade War

Trump’s unilateral move stems from an April proposal to reform U.S. foreign trade strategy. Since then, 12 official letters have been dispatched to major trade partners, including the EU, signaling a shift toward aggressive bilateralism. Key elements of the proposed sanctions include:

▪️ Tariffs ranging from 10% to 70% on EU exports, effective August 1, 2025,
▪️ Criteria based on trade imbalances, targeting countries with high export volumes to the U.S.,
▪️ Departure from WTO multilateral principles in favor of direct economic pressure.

“I hope we will have an agreement this weekend. Otherwise, Europe will probably have to show more strength in its response to restore balance,” said French Economy Minister Éric Lombard on Saturday.

Europe Braces for a Return to Protectionism

Facing an increasingly hostile trade environment, European leaders are debating whether to adopt more assertive protectionist policies. Lombard signaled that the EU should prepare to erect its own customs barriers, not only against the United States but also against China, which is often accused of unfair trade practices.

“It’s like a playground where everyone plays hopscotch with supervisors and rules. Then three bullies arrive and ignore all the rules,” Lombard said, pointedly referring to the U.S., China, and Russia.

This metaphor underscores Europe’s growing concern: a breakdown of multilateralism and the rise of a raw-power economic order, where strategic autonomy and hardline trade responses may be the only path to survival.

Crypto Markets Eye Opportunity Amid Geopolitical Shifts

As tensions mount, financial markets are beginning to price in geopolitical risk. Digital assets, especially Bitcoin (BTC), are gaining attention as a hedge against rising trade uncertainty and weakening trust in fiat currencies.

A full-scale tariff war could accelerate capital flows into decentralized assets, particularly if U.S.-EU monetary tensions fuel inflation or currency instability.

Institutional investors are keeping a close watch on this weekend’s negotiations, knowing that failure could trigger new volatility cycles and place crypto back at the center of global hedging strategies.

Trade Turbulence May Force Europe Toward Greater Sovereignty

If talks collapse, the resulting tariffs could cripple EU exporters and amplify imported inflation, especially in key sectors like machinery, automotive, and luxury goods.

In the medium term, this would likely strengthen Europe’s resolve to pursue industrial and monetary sovereignty—possibly accelerating moves toward:

• A more unified EU trade policy,

• Greater investment in European supply chains, and

• Broader exploration of digital currencies and decentralized finance to reduce reliance on U.S.-led systems.

A return to protectionism—if confirmed by Washington’s actions—could mark a turning point for global trade, ushering in a new era defined by sovereignty-first economic policy.

ECB President Christine Lagarde Warns Stablecoin Adoption Might Lead to ‘Privatization of Money’
Lagarde urges caution as stablecoins challenge central banks’ role in safeguarding monetary sovereignty

▪️ Christine Lagarde warns that stablecoins should not be treated as money, highlighting risks to financial sovereignty.
▪️ Privately issued stablecoins could undermine central banks’ ability to conduct monetary policy.
▪️ The ECB advocates for a public alternative through the forthcoming digital euro.

Speaking at a central bank forum in Portugal, European Central Bank (ECB) President Christine Lagarde issued a direct warning about the growing use of stablecoins. She argued that these digital assets, issued by private companies like Tether (USDT) and Circle (USDC), pose a significant challenge to public financial institutions and blur the line between money, payments, and infrastructure.

“I think that we are falling prey to some confusion between money, means of payment, and payment infrastructure… accelerated by the technology that is being used,” said Lagarde.

The Rise of Stablecoins: A Threat to Monetary Sovereignty?

Lagarde’s remarks reflect mounting concern within global central banks over stablecoins’ role as money substitutes. By mimicking the value of fiat currencies but existing outside of central bank control, stablecoins threaten to erode public trust in traditional monetary frameworks.

“My fear is that this blurring of the lines… is likely to lead to a privatization of money. I don’t think that this is the purpose for which we’ve been appointed… nor is it good for this public good that is money,” she emphasized.

Stablecoins, often used for digital commerce, cross-border payments, and DeFi transactions, operate independently of national monetary systems, which weakens central banks’ ability to implement effective monetary policy.

ECB’s Digital Euro: A Public Answer to Private Innovation

To counteract the growing influence of private digital currencies, the ECB is pushing forward with the digital euro—a central bank digital currency (CBDC) designed to retain public control over digital money.

Lagarde has long championed the digital euro as both a tool of sovereign economic policy and a technologically advanced public payment option. In June, she reaffirmed that the digital euro is nearly ready for launch, pending final regulatory clearance.

The digital euro aims to balance innovation with monetary stability, ensuring that digital transactions do not shift the power of money creation and policy away from democratic institutions.

A New Financial Paradigm: Who Should Control the Money Supply?

The ECB’s messaging marks a broader philosophical debate: Should money remain a public good managed by central banks, or shift toward private issuers in the name of innovation and convenience?

Stablecoins, which were originally introduced to simplify crypto trading, are increasingly used as real-world proxies for fiat currencies, raising profound regulatory and economic implications.

Lagarde’s warning comes amid growing international calls to regulate stablecoins, particularly as their adoption rises among retail and institutional users alike. The clash between centralized public finance and decentralized digital currencies is now a defining tension of modern monetary policy.

Musk Announces Formation of ‘America Party’
Tech mogul launches third-party bid, slams “uniparty” politics and GOP spending bill

▪️ Elon Musk announced the formation of the “America Party”, a new political faction aiming to disrupt the U.S. two-party system.
▪️ The move follows a poll on X (formerly Twitter) where users backed the idea of a third party by a 2-to-1 margin.
▪️ Musk, a vocal critic of both Democrats and Republicans, framed the party as a return to “freedom” and common sense, declaring the U.S. lives under a “one-party system.”

On Saturday, tech billionaire Elon Musk made headlines again—this time in the political arena. In a post on X, which he owns, Musk wrote:

“By a factor of 2 to 1, you want a new political party and you shall have it… Today, the America Party is formed to give you back your freedom.”

Shortly after, a live page for the America Party went public, gaining over 19,000 followers in hours. The page emphasizes a platform “built on common sense, not consultants.”

Tensions with Trump and the GOP Spark Third-Party Bid

The launch comes after Musk threatened to form a third party in response to the GOP's recent spending package. Musk criticized the legislation for stripping electric vehicle (EV) credits, a direct blow to Tesla, one of his core businesses.

“The way we’re going to crack the uniparty system,” Musk wrote, “is by using a variant of how Epaminondas shattered the myth of Spartan invincibility at Leuctra: Extremely concentrated force at a precise location on the battlefield.”

Musk, historically a Republican-leaning donor, is now shifting focus toward building a new base, appealing to voters disillusioned with both major parties.

Bannon Calls for Musk’s Deportation Over Third Party Move

The announcement sparked backlash from Trump’s former chief strategist Steve Bannon, who attacked Musk’s citizenship and motivations.

“Only a foreigner could do this... Elmo the Mook, formerly known as Elon Musk... He should be deported,” Bannon said on his War Room podcast.

Bannon accused Musk of undermining American politics and suggested potential legal actions to challenge his role in forming a party he sees as un-American.

Trump Responds: DOGE Probe and Subsidy Accusations

In response, President Trump hinted at launching a federal probe into Musk’s businesses through the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE)—a department previously led by Musk.

 “Elon may get more subsidy than any human being in history… No more rocket launches, satellites, or electric car production,” Trump wrote, calling for DOGE to examine Musk’s government ties.

The president claimed Musk has profited from “BIG MONEY” in federal aid and subsidies, suggesting his companies are overly dependent on taxpayer funds.

What Comes Next?

With U.S. elections approaching, the America Party could draw support from independents and swing voters dissatisfied with traditional party politics. However, the move also opens Musk to intense political and legal scrutiny, particularly as tensions with Trump escalate.

Whether this initiative gains real traction or remains symbolic, it reflects a growing crack in America’s bipartisan system, now challenged by one of the most influential entrepreneurs in the world.

BRICS to Launch Guarantee Fund to Boost Investment and Lower Finance Costs
New BRICS Multilateral Guarantee Fund backed by NDB aims to challenge Western financial dominance

▪️ BRICS to announce a new guarantee fund backed by the New Development Bank (NDB) to reduce investment risk and financing costs.
▪️ The BRICS Multilateral Guarantee (BMG) Fund is modeled after the World Bank’s MIGA and will be a central theme at the 17th summit in Rio.
▪️ The initiative signals BRICS' push toward a multipolar financial order—but attracting institutional support will be key to success.

The BRICS alliance—comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa—is preparing to unveil a new financial tool: the BRICS Multilateral Guarantee (BMG) Fund, a mechanism designed to stimulate investment and reduce capital costs among its members.

According to Reuters, the fund will be officially announced during the upcoming 17th BRICS Summit in Rio de Janeiro, hosted by Brazil. The New Development Bank (NDB) will administer the BMG Fund, which is modeled on the World Bank’s Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA).

A Strategic Move Toward Financial Sovereignty

The guarantee fund represents a bold step by BRICS to counterbalance the financial influence of the West, particularly amid concerns over unpredictable U.S. economic policy shifts.

By offering in-house guarantees on investments made within the bloc, the BMG Fund aims to reduce reliance on Western-led financial institutions and cut the cost of borrowing for major development projects.

“This is a politically significant guarantee instrument,” said one source close to the matter. “It sends a message that BRICS is alive, working on solutions, strengthening the NDB, and responding to today’s global needs.”

Technical Approval Complete, Formal Launch Imminent

Insiders confirmed that the BMG Fund has already received technical approval from all BRICS member states. Its formal endorsement by finance ministers is expected to take place during the summit, which would make the fund operational.

The announcement could be a defining moment for the BRICS bloc as it positions itself as a global counterweight to institutions such as the World Bank and International Monetary Fund (IMF).

Challenges Ahead: Private Capital Participation Needed

While the BMG Fund is an ambitious initiative, its long-term viability depends on attracting institutional investors and major commercial banks. These players will be essential in helping the NDB manage risk and mobilize significant capital.

The fund’s success will hinge on whether it can convince private sector financiers that BRICS nations present secure and profitable investment opportunities.

This will require clear risk-sharing frameworks, attractive terms, and strong governance standards.

Toward a Multipolar Financial World

The launch of the BMG Fund reflects BRICS’ broader goal of reshaping the global financial order. As the bloc explores alternatives to dollar-based systems, it continues to build new financial architecture aimed at reducing dependency on Western financial institutions.

From the NDB’s expanding role to ongoing de-dollarization efforts, BRICS is methodically crafting a multipolar financial ecosystem.

The BMG Fund could become a cornerstone of this vision—if it gains sufficient backing from public and private sectors alike.

Physical Gold Rising as Basel III Bites

Physical Gold Rising as Basel III Bites

Kinesis Money:  7-4-2025

In a recent illuminating session of Kinesis Money’s “Live from the Vault,” renowned precious metals expert Andrew Maguire and market analyst Craig Hemke posed a compelling and controversial question: are escalating Middle East tensions being deliberately staged to divert global attention?

Specifically, from China’s burgeoning trade corridor initiatives and the upcoming BRICS summit – events that signal a profound shift towards physical asset settlement on the global stage.

The experts posited that while geopolitical flashpoints dominate headlines, the true tectonic plates of global finance are shifting beneath the surface.

These developments, ranging from China’s expanding economic reach to the BRICS alliance’s increasing influence, fundamentally challenge the existing fiat-dominated financial system by championing a return to tangible, physically-backed trade.

Adding another layer to this complex analysis, Craig Hemke highlighted the noticeable return of headline-driven market volatility, reminiscent of previous eras, particularly under the current political landscape with Donald Trump. This heightened responsiveness to breaking news, they argue, often obscures the deeper, more fundamental economic shifts occurring out of sight.

Maguire and Hemke then pivoted to their core thesis, reaffirming a long-held conviction among many in the precious metals community: the inexorable path towards fiat currency collapse.

This systemic vulnerability, they contend, is now unequivocally exposing the inherent flaws and ultimate fragility of the “paper gold” system. Faced with this revelation, the global financial landscape is witnessing an accelerating pivot towards transparent, physically settled trading – a move towards assets with intrinsic value, free from counterparty risk and fractional reserve manipulation.

The insights from Kinesis Money’s “Live from the Vault” offer a crucial perspective, urging viewers to look beyond the immediate headlines and understand the underlying forces reshaping the global economy.

As nations and investors increasingly seek stability in turbulent times, the move towards physical settlement, particularly in assets like gold and silver, appears to be not just a trend, but a fundamental reorientation of global finance.

For a deeper dive into these critical discussions and further expert analysis, interested individuals are encouraged to watch the full video from Kinesis Money featuring Andrew Maguire and Craig Hemke.

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

The World Quietly Moves on From the US Dollar
Global powers begin de-dollarization amid growing distrust in U.S. financial policy

The U.S. dollar’s dominance—long upheld by geopolitical strength and economic influence—is now facing its sharpest challenge yet. But the erosion is not being caused by market collapse or foreign sabotage. Instead, it's being driven by what many call the overuse and weaponization of the currency by Washington itself.

From Russia to Iran and Belarus, the White House’s sanctions strategy has left a trail of crippled economies and frozen assets. The sweeping penalties have not only disrupted trade flows and revenue generation but also undermined the credibility of the dollar as a neutral global tender.

“The weaponization of the U.S. dollar has gone too far,” emerging economies have repeatedly warned.

Unlike the British pound—once the global reserve before the 1940s—the U.S. dollar has increasingly been used as a policy lever. While Britain wielded military might, it rarely applied financial tools to isolate nations. The dollar’s use as a strategic bludgeon has now led many central banks to quietly start moving away from it.

World Central Banks Begin Dollar Diversification

Despite remaining the most dominant currency on Earth—with 86% of international transactions settled in USD—the greenback is no longer viewed as universally reliable. Instead, the global financial community is beginning to reevaluate its role and risk exposure.

With the U.S. national debt surpassing $36 trillion, emerging markets are especially wary. Economic leaders are reacting by diversifying their foreign reserves, turning to gold, the Chinese yuan, and other regional currencies.

There’s also growing concern about the IMF and World Bank, which operate under a system deeply intertwined with U.S. financial control. These institutions offer little structural space for competing currencies, further solidifying the dollar’s dominance—but at the cost of fairness and inclusivity.

De-Dollarization Accelerates

Trust is the cornerstone of any financial system, and today, that trust in the U.S. dollar is fraying fast. The consequences of economic coercion are becoming clearer, and global leaders are moving not in protest—but in quiet determination—to reduce dependency.

“To rebuild trust, the U.S. must stop using the dollar as a weapon,” the article notes. “And it must foster global partnerships, not economic pressure.”

If the trend continues, the greenback may enter an accelerated path of decline, not through collapse, but through irrelevance—displaced by a multipolar reserve structure already taking shape in boardrooms around the world.

The world isn’t sounding an alarm.
It’s walking away—quietly.

Will Tether’s USDT Get Banned in the US When the GENIUS Act Becomes Law?
New stablecoin rules threaten Tether’s US presence amid rising regulatory scrutiny

▪️ The GENIUS Act gives stablecoin issuers 18 to 36 months to comply with new transparency rules—or face a market ban.
▪️ Tether must choose between compliance, withdrawal, or launching a separate U.S.-compliant stablecoin.
▪️ Circle’s USDC could gain ground if Tether exits the American market.

Once the GENIUS Act is signed into law, stablecoin issuers will face a ticking clock: they’ll have 18 to 36 months to fully comply with sweeping new regulations—or be banned from operating in the United States.

At the heart of this regulatory overhaul is Tether, the issuer of USDT, the world’s largest stablecoin. Known for its limited transparency and lack of audited reserves, Tether now stands at a crossroads.

A New Regulatory Era for Stablecoins

The GENIUS Act aims to integrate stablecoins into traditional finance, creating a framework of regulatory safeguards for what are often the least volatile digital assets. While the bill is a milestone victory for the crypto industry, not all players are likely to survive its scrutiny.

USDT—which controls more than 60% of the global stablecoin market—could become a casualty. The bill demands regular audits, reserve transparency, AML/KYC enforcement, and technological capabilities to freeze or seize assets under lawful authority.

The Senate version provides a 3-year timeline. The House version cuts it to just 18 months.

Tether’s Troubled History with Transparency

Even before the GENIUS Act, Tether faced long-standing criticism for its lack of independent audits and opaque reserve reporting.

In 2021, the company settled with the New York Attorney General, paying $18.5 million and agreeing to exit the New York market after being accused of misleading claims about its fiat backing. The case revealed that $850 million had gone missing, and Bitfinex had used Tether reserves to cover the loss—meaning USDT was not fully backed for a period.

Since then, Tether has begun issuing quarterly attestations—but these still fall short of what the GENIUS Act will require.

Sanctions, Seizures & Scrutiny

Tether has also been under fire for enabling illicit financial activity. Accusations have included stablecoin usage by sanctioned entities in Russia and North Korea.

In response, Tether has increased cooperation with U.S. law enforcement. It froze $23 million in assets at the request of the U.S. Secret Service and has collaborated with the DOJ and FBI.

However, the GENIUS Act now makes such measures mandatory, not voluntary—requiring all stablecoin issuers to freeze assets, implement AML/KYC protocols, and comply with U.S. law enforcement across the board.

Can USDT Survive Without the U.S.?

Tether's dominance is undeniable, with a circulating supply of nearly 158 billion USDT—more than double that of second-place Circle’s USDC (62 billion).

Yet Tether’s core business isn’t U.S.-centric. Its largest trading volumes come from Asia, Latin America, and emerging markets—primarily through global platforms like Binance.

USDT trading volume exceeded $62 billion in a single day—mostly outside the U.S.

This raises the question: Would a U.S. withdrawal even hurt Tether? Perhaps not immediately—but it could send damaging signals to regulators, institutional investors, and traditional finance.

A Withdrawal Could Hurt More Than Help

Exiting the U.S. would sever access to a vital hub of financial innovation and liquidity. It would also invite loss of confidence, reinforcing the perception that Tether is unwilling—or unable—to meet robust standards.

Meanwhile, Circle’s USDC, which is fully compliant and actively adjusting to U.S. and EU regulations, would stand to gain significant market share.

However, even Circle’s advantage may not be enough to dethrone Tether without regulatory support or additional shifts in market dynamics.

Room for Compromise Still Exists

The GENIUS Act still needs to be reconciled with the House’s STABLE Act, offering room for negotiation on timelines and foreign issuer provisions.

A source close to the legislative process suggested both Congress and Tether may seek middle ground, noting that Tether’s massive U.S. Treasury holdings help support the dollar.

“Tether’s demand for U.S. Treasuries is larger than Germany’s. Forcing a full exit could destabilize demand for U.S. debt,” the source said.

A US-Based Tether Stablecoin in the Works?

Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino confirmed that the company plans to launch a separate, US-compliant stablecoin later this year—distinct from USDT and tailored to American regulations.

While this could offer a legal workaround, it also introduces operational headaches, regulatory duplication, and unnecessary complexity.

“They probably would prefer not to do that—it’s not ideal,” said the anonymous source.

What’s Next for Tether?

The GENIUS Act represents the most serious regulatory challenge Tether has ever faced. Whether it adapts, exits, or splits into separate compliant entities will define the next chapter of stablecoin evolution.

The world’s most widely used stablecoin must now choose: conform, divide, or retreat.

Iran, Part of BRICS, Threatens Brazil’s Push for Global Reform

Rising geopolitical tensions challenge Brazil’s leadership of BRICS ahead of Rio summit, as Iran’s presence tests unity and derails reform agenda.

As Brazil prepares to host the 17th BRICS Summit in Rio de Janeiro on July 6–7, escalating geopolitical rifts—particularly involving Iran—are threatening to derail President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva’s global reform agenda. The tensions are drawing new lines within the bloc just as Brazil takes the helm of the newly expanded BRICS alliance.

Brazil’s Reform Agenda Meets Iranian Resistance

Under Lula’s leadership, Brazil hoped to use its BRICS presidency to promote a platform centered on:

▪️ Democratic multilateralism
▪️ Inclusive global governance reform
▪️ Green energy transition
▪️ Expanded vaccine cooperation
▪️ Fair trade policies

However, Iran’s inclusion in BRICS has created immediate and unprecedented challenges to this vision. Following renewed Iran-Israel hostilities, tensions within the group have heightened significantly, shifting the spotlight from economic reform to geopolitical friction.

“Iran’s presence is fundamentally altering the group’s direction,” say policy analysts, pointing out that Brazil’s diplomatic agenda is now overshadowed by hardline sovereignty narratives and authoritarian alignment.

A Struggle for BRICS Unity Amid Autocratic Drift

The entrance of Iran—along with Russia, China, and other authoritarian-leaning members—has shifted BRICS further from the democratic ideals that Brazil hoped to promote.

▪️ Iran has confirmed it will send a delegation to Rio, prompting fears that summit discussions will lean toward anti-West sovereignty statements rather than constructive reform.

▪️ The growing autocratic tilt undermines Brazil’s inclusive agenda and raises doubts about BRICS’s capacity for collective action.

▪️ Global instability—spurred by Russia’s war in Ukraine and Middle East tensions—is being described as a “dangerous distraction” from the bloc’s stated priorities.

“Brazil’s challenge is managing reform in a club where several members are more focused on geopolitical posturing than economic collaboration,” said Dr. Christopher Sabatini, senior fellow for Latin America at Chatham House.

Strategic Realignment May Be Brazil’s Best Bet

Facing this friction, Brazil may be forced to forge smaller coalitions within BRICS—particularly with more aligned partners like India and Indonesia—to salvage aspects of its original reform plan.

▪️ Limited cooperation on climate change, infrastructure, and trade reform could still emerge through bilateral or trilateral deals.

▪️ Lula’s administration may have to lower expectations for sweeping multilateral consensus at the summit due to widening internal divisions.

▪️ Still, Brazil’s presidency could be considered a success if it sidesteps ideological gridlock and instead champions tangible, issue-specific outcomes.

While the BRICS summit in Rio was envisioned as a platform for emerging market leadership, it has become a test of whether the bloc can maintain cohesion in the face of mounting internal contradictions. Iran’s role in BRICS—once viewed as symbolic—is now central to the debate over the organization’s future identity and global credibility.

The World Quietly Moves on From the US Dollar
Global sentiment shifts as currency weaponization fuels reserve diversification

Decades of U.S. dollar dominance are quietly unraveling—not through manipulation or market failures, but through currency weaponization. The White House’s overreach with economic sanctions has pushed even long-standing partners to reassess their reliance on the greenback.

From Russia to Iran, Belarus, and beyond, the U.S. has levied sanctions that have crippled national economies, isolating them from global trade. Despite repeated warnings from emerging economies, the U.S. continued to treat its currency as a tool of coercion. This has now sparked a widespread—but quiet—departure from the dollar.

Historically, the British pound, the global reserve currency before the 1940s, maintained its role without resorting to weaponization. In contrast, the U.S. dollar—though still dominant—is increasingly perceived as a liability, rather than an asset.

Central Banks Begin Diversifying Reserves

While the U.S. dollar remains central to global finance—involved in over 86% of transactions worldwide—confidence is eroding. Nations are no longer viewing the dollar as a financial solution but rather a growing problem, particularly in light of America’s $36 trillion national debt and its role in enforcing economic punishments.

In response, central banks are diversifying into gold and local currencies, hedging against the risks tied to U.S. fiscal policy and dollar-dependency. Officials are openly questioning the neutrality of global institutions like the IMF and World Bank, which operate firmly within the dollar-based framework.

Weaponization Accelerates De-Dollarization

The most alarming trend? The U.S. dollar is no longer viewed as neutral. The perception of its use as a geopolitical weapon has undermined the trust required to sustain its global supremacy.

Experts warn: unless the U.S. changes course, it could face a historic decline in dollar hegemony.

"To restore trust, the United States must stop using its currency as a weapon and instead support fair economic development globally," the article notes.

The de-dollarization movement is gaining traction—not as a loud rebellion, but as a strategic recalibration. The rest of the world is moving on. Quietly. Deliberately. And possibly, permanently.

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

House GOP Declares ‘Crypto Week’ to Advance Landmark Digital Asset Bills

House Republicans launch a coordinated push to transform U.S. crypto regulation—while halting central bank digital currency plans.

The U.S. House of Representatives is set to make cryptocurrency a legislative priority during the week of July 14, as House Republicans declare “Crypto Week”—a focused legislative campaign aimed at reshaping digital asset regulation and blocking the issuance of a Federal Reserve-backed central bank digital currency (CBDC).

The effort is part of former President Donald Trump’s broader policy strategy to establish the U.S. as a global leader in blockchain innovation and crypto competitiveness.

Three Key Bills Take Center Stage

During Crypto Week, House leadership will spotlight three critical pieces of legislation:

• The CLARITY Act

• The Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act

• The GENIUS Act

“After years of dedicated work in Congress on digital assets, we are advancing landmark legislation to establish a clear regulatory framework,” said Rep. French Hill (R-AR), Chair of the House Financial Services Committee.

The bills aim to deliver regulatory certainty, protect consumer rights, and prohibit the Federal Reserve from issuing a CBDC—a digital version of the U.S. dollar that critics argue would endanger financial privacy.

Legislative Milestones Already Achieved

The groundwork for Crypto Week has already been laid:

• In April, the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act passed out of committee with a 27–22 vote.

• In June, the CLARITY Act was approved by both the House Financial Services and Agriculture Committees. The bill seeks to remove the SEC’s current oversight authority over crypto.

• That same month, the GENIUS Act cleared the Senate and now awaits a House vote.

“Time and again, we have heard the calls for regulatory clarity,” said Rep. GT Thompson (R-PA), Chair of the Agriculture Committee. “It will soon be time for the House to deliver for the American people and send CLARITY to the Senate.”

Crypto Week Signals a Turning Point

Rep. Tom Emmer (R-MN), a leading crypto advocate in Congress, said that the legislation represents a commitment to financial privacy and free-market innovation.

“American innovators are one step closer to having the clarity they need to build here at home,” Emmer said, “while ensuring the future of the digital economy reflects our values of privacy, individual sovereignty, and free-market competitiveness.”

Senator Cynthia Lummis (R-WY) emphasized that this federal momentum mirrors the trailblazing work already done at the state level.

“In Wyoming, we’ve worked for nearly a decade to embrace digital assets. It’s exciting to see the federal government beginning to follow in the Cowboy State’s footsteps.”

Lummis confirmed she is working closely with Rep. Hill and Rep. Thompson on comprehensive stablecoin legislation, adding:

“We must ensure any CBDC respects Americans’ privacy and financial freedom.”

As Crypto Week approaches, momentum continues to build for a comprehensive redefinition of how the U.S. treats digital assets—shifting the country’s position from reactive oversight to proactive leadership.

US Senator Cynthia Lummis Drafts Standalone Crypto Tax Bill

Wyoming lawmaker seeks to overhaul digital asset taxation—cutting red tape, ending double taxation, and boosting U.S. innovation.

Senator Cynthia Lummis (R-WY) introduced a standalone draft bill on Thursday to modernize the U.S. tax code for digital assets—after previous attempts to include crypto reforms in the federal budget package failed.

The new legislation is designed to provide regulatory clarity and eliminate double taxation on crypto transactions involving staking, mining, and lending.

Key Provisions:

▪️ A de minimis exemption for crypto capital gains under $300 per transaction, with an annual cap of $5,000
▪️ Tax deferral on staking and mining rewards until the underlying assets are sold
▪️ Exemptions for crypto lending agreements and charitable donations involving digital assets

“This groundbreaking legislation is fully paid for, cuts through the bureaucratic red tape, and establishes common-sense rules that reflect how digital technologies function in the real world,” said Lummis.

“We cannot allow our archaic tax policies to stifle American innovation. My legislation ensures Americans can participate in the digital economy without inadvertent tax violations.”

The standalone bill is now the primary legislative vehicle for Lummis to fulfill her pro-crypto policy promises, particularly after Congress advanced the 2025 budget without incorporating any digital asset tax reforms.

Crypto Taxation Remains a Flashpoint

Across the U.S. crypto landscape, unclear and inefficient tax rules continue to frustrate investors, developers, and businesses.

A particular area of concern is the treatment of decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols and non-custodial platforms, where developers do not hold user funds or control consensus. Without updated tax code language, these actors risk being misclassified as money transmitters and subjected to reporting obligations designed for centralized financial institutions.

In June, lawmakers introduced an amendment to the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025—exempting DeFi developers from these requirements. That amendment, if retained in the final version of the bill, would protect innovation by distinguishing between centralized and decentralized projects.

A Race Against Time

U.S. lawmakers are working urgently to finalize crypto-related language in the upcoming federal spending bill, now headed to President Donald Trump’s desk. Whether Lummis’s proposals make it into law through this new standalone bill or are folded into broader packages remains to be seen.

But with bipartisan attention intensifying around crypto taxation, Lummis’s bill may mark a pivotal shift toward fairer, innovation-friendly tax treatment for U.S. digital asset holders.

Grotesque Debt Crisis Set to Explode

Grotesque Debt Crisis Set to Explode

Commodity Culture:   7-3-2025

In a recent illuminating discussion on Jesse Day’s ‘Commodity Culture,’ financial strategist Matthew Piepenburg delivered a stark warning about a looming crisis born from the convergence of escalating global conflict, unprecedented levels of government debt, and dangerously overinflated financial markets.

Piepenburg’s analysis paints a grim picture of a future where a massive debt crisis could erase wealth in the blink of an eye, urging investors to consider unconventional strategies for survival.

Piepenburg posits that these three seemingly disparate elements are inextricably linked, forming a feedback loop of instability. He argues that the “insane levels of government debt” accumulated globally are not merely an economic burden but a systemic weakness, making nations more prone to geopolitical tensions as they scramble for resources or face internal pressures.

This fragility, he contends, is exacerbated by financial markets that have soared to unsustainable heights, decoupled from underlying economic realities, creating a “bubble” vulnerable to the slightest tremor.

The consequence of this precarious balance, according to Piepenburg, is an impending debt crisis unlike any seen before. He warns that this isn’t a slow-burn recession, but a rapid, wealth-destroying event.

“Trillions of cracks” are forming within the global financial system, he explains, waiting for the right catalyst – be it a geopolitical shock, a market crash, or a sovereign debt default – to shatter the entire edifice. Such an event, he stresses, would not discriminate, potentially wiping out a lifetime of savings for those unprepared.

Amidst this dire forecast, Piepenburg offers a lifeline: precious metals. He makes a compelling case for gold, describing it as the “last asset standing” when traditional markets crumble. Its historical role as a store of value, independent of government solvency or corporate earnings, makes it a critical hedge against systemic collapse.

 Intriguingly, Piepenburg also highlights silver, suggesting it could “speed past gold” in a crisis scenario. Its dual role as both a monetary metal and an industrial commodity could give it explosive upside as demand for tangible assets surges and supply potentially tightens.

Piepenburg’s insights on ‘Commodity Culture’ serve as a crucial wake-up call for investors and citizens alike. His detailed breakdown of the interdependencies between global conflict, sovereign debt, and market overvaluation offers a chilling, yet vital, perspective on the current economic landscape. While the future remains uncertain, his analysis strongly suggests that a paradigm shift in wealth preservation strategies may be not just advisable, but essential.

For a deeper dive into Matthew Piepenburg’s comprehensive analysis, including the specific ‘cracks’ he identifies and the catalysts he monitors, viewers are urged to watch the full discussion on Commodity Culture.
