~~~~~~~~~~

The RV process is structured in phases.

First comes preparation — assembling your documents, proof of address, IDs, project plans, banking info, and clear goals for your first 30, 60, and 90 days.

Then comes notification, with appointment details sent securely by email or announced through trusted intel sources.

Once booked, you (allegedly) present yourself at the Redemption Center to sign NDAs, complete post-redemption plan documents, and receive your allocations.

This is not just about money — it is about justice, sovereignty, and restoring what was stolen. The Redemption Centers are (allegedly) where the reset moves from talk to action, where God’s plan for abundance meets the readiness of those who came prepared. The door is opening, and those who are ready will step through first.

~~~~~~~~~

Tues. 12 Aug. 2025: NESARA & QFS REDEMPTION – THE PROCESS BEGINS … on Telegram

The NESARA and QFS Plan is no longer theory — the RV Redemption process has (allegedly) started. This is where the financial reset becomes real, where Redemption Centers replace the role of banks for the general public, and where the protocols of NESARA/GESARA are (allegedly) applied in full.

Redemption Centers are not ordinary banks. Here, higher exchange and redemption rates are (allegedly) offered, along with (allegedly) QPhones, QLaptops, Quantum Access Account Cards, Rainbow Currency, debit cards, and even temporary trusts for those with approved Humanitarian Initiative Trusts.

Those prepared with the standard template — approved during the Trump Administration — are (allegedly) positioned to benefit immediately.

The 4 R’s define this process. Reclamation restores what the cabal and banking elites stole over generations.

Restitution and reparation compensate for unconstitutional taxes, interest, and debts used to bind us as chattel through birth certificates, social security numbers, and other bonds.

Redemption comes in two forms: currency and ZIM bond exchanges at high gold-backed rates, with part allocated to humanitarian projects; and the XRP buyback, with a God-given fair market value of $1,000,000 per token already mirrored into Quantum Accounts.

Frank26 Alaq is no longer looking for security and stability because he has it. What he's looking for is the only reason why they have not lifted the value yet and that is the dinar mattresses. That is the reason now and can be solved very quickly...It was exciting for him to tell Iraqi citizens, 'we're going to come out with the rate better than 1980.' That's why this is a reinstatement.

Militia Man Article: "The Central Bank launches the security clearance platform." There is an estimated 80% of currency held outside the banking system. If we use the assumption that the SPP (security clearance platform) is an effort for post re-valuation or redenomination it is bolstered and supported by this action...It may trigger an influx of cash deposits as citizens exchange old notes for new notes. The platform...may be a critical tool in managing the transition, ensuring banks can handle increased volumes...The move by the central bank looks to support the assumption that the platform is part of preparatory measures...It is not surprising to see this type of action from the Central Bank. It would likely be expected.

Seeds of Wisdom RV and Economic Updates Friday Morning 8-15-25

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

Stablecoins Poised to Reshape U.S. Monetary Policy by 2030

New report projects $1 trillion annual payment volume and major impact on Treasury markets

A joint report from Keyrock and Bitso forecasts that stablecoins could reach $1 trillion in annual payment volume by 2030, representing 10% of the U.S. money supply and holding 25% of the U.S. Treasury bill market with a $2 trillion supply.

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

Stablecoins Poised to Reshape U.S. Monetary Policy by 2030

New report projects $1 trillion annual payment volume and major impact on Treasury markets

The research suggests stablecoins can process payments up to 13 times cheaper than traditional banks, with instant settlement, creating what it calls a “new financial operating system” that removes intermediaries and accelerates global value exchange.

Market Growth and Macroeconomic Impact

Stablecoin market surged from $4 billion in 2020 to over $280 billion in 2025.
Monthly settlements reached $1.39 trillion in the first half of 2025.
Major issuers now rank 17th globally in U.S. Treasury holdings — ahead of South Korea, Germany, and Saudi Arabia.
Stablecoin inflows can influence Treasury yields, making issuers active players in bond markets.

Evolving Payment Infrastructure

The report highlights the “stablecoin sandwich” model:

Fiat on-ramp
On-chain stablecoin transfer
Fiat off-ramp

This structure replaces correspondent banks with programmable, instant settlement bridges.
Other innovations include:

Virtual USD accounts — mimic U.S. bank accounts but run on blockchain.
Self-custody options reducing reliance on local banking.
Proprietary stablecoins launched by major fintech firms to control payment networks.

Programmability and New Applications

Programmable stablecoins could enable:

Trustless escrow
Automated corporate liquidity management
Real-time payroll
IoT micropayments based on sensor data

FX Market Disruption

The $7.5 trillion daily foreign exchange market is a prime target:

On-chain FX enables instant, risk-free settlement (T+0, 24/7).
Could eliminate pre-funding inefficiencies that tie up $27 trillion in global bank accounts.
Stablecoin-powered platforms achieve far higher capital turnover than traditional money transfer operators.

Regulatory Tensions

U.S. banking associations warn that yield-bearing stablecoins could trigger $6.6 trillion in deposit outflows, destabilizing banks.
Banks are lobbying for tighter GENIUS Act restrictions.
Coinbase and PayPal continue to offer rewards programs, claiming they are not issuers.

Cross-Border Adoption

Stablecoins projected to facilitate 12% of global cross-border flows by 2030.
Visa partners with Yellow Card Financial for stablecoin payments in 20 African countries.
Mastercard integrates Chainlink to enable crypto purchases for 3 billion cardholders.

Bottom line: Stablecoins are rapidly evolving from niche digital assets to a core component of global finance, with the potential to reshape U.S. monetary policy, disrupt the FX market, and challenge traditional banking models.

U.S. Treasury Reaffirms Plans for Strategic Bitcoin Reserve

Secretary Bessent walks back earlier remarks that rattled markets

U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent clarified Thursday that the department is still exploring budget-neutral ways to purchase Bitcoin for the nation’s Strategic Bitcoin Reserve — reversing comments made earlier in the day that had triggered a $55 billion market sell-off.

“Treasury is committed to exploring budget-neutral pathways to acquire more Bitcoin to expand the reserve, and to execute on the President’s promise to make the United States the ‘Bitcoin superpower of the world,’”
— Scott Bessent, via X

Bessent reiterated that Bitcoin forfeited to the federal government would remain the foundation of the reserve.

Market Impact

Initial FOX Business interview was interpreted as Treasury abandoning Bitcoin purchases.
Within 40 minutes, Bitcoin’s price fell from $121,073 to $118,886.
Clarification later in the day eased concerns, but Bitcoin remained near $118,500.

Ongoing Strategy & Delays

Strategic Bitcoin Reserve established by Executive Order (March 6), alongside a Digital Asset Stockpile.
Reserve currently relies on seized crypto assets from criminal cases.
Additional purchases require budget-neutral funding — meaning no extra taxpayer cost.
Proposed funding ideas include:

Reevaluating Treasury’s gold certificates.
Using tariff revenue.

Treasury has been in the “exploration” phase for five months, frustrating some industry leaders.

Criticism from the Crypto Sector

Bitcoin mining firm Braiins CEO Eli Nagar criticized the slow pace:

“At some point, exploration without execution starts to look like avoidance.”

Concerns persist that other nations could front-run U.S. Bitcoin accumulation.

Congressional Role

Treasury may need Congressional approval for budget-neutral Bitcoin purchases.
Sen. Cynthia Lummis urged lawmakers to advance her BITCOIN Act to facilitate the process.

No Plans to Sell

Bessent confirmed that U.S. will stop selling its Bitcoin holdings.
Estimated current holdings:

198,012 BTC (BitBo data).
Valued between $15B–$23.5B depending on market price.

Bottom line: Despite market confusion, the Treasury’s Bitcoin strategy remains intact but slow-moving, with political hurdles and funding mechanics still unresolved. The U.S. remains one of the largest national holders of Bitcoin — but the pace of accumulation may determine whether it can meet its goal of becoming the world’s Bitcoin superpower.

Ripple CTO Says XRP Ledger Ready to Power the Future of Global Financial Infrastructure

Ripple CTO David Schwartz says the XRP Ledger (XRPL) is fully equipped to serve as a cornerstone of global financial systems, noting that Ripple has been building toward this vision for over 13 years.

In a detailed post on X, Schwartz addressed the recent wave of stablecoin and payment companies launching their own blockchains, viewing it as confirmation that blockchain has become essential to financial infrastructure. He stressed that while launching a blockchain is challenging, building a trusted ecosystem with liquidity, real-world adoption, and active developers is even harder — an area where XRPL has a long-standing advantage.

Key Differences and Advantages of XRPL

Unlike some blockchains that use permissioned validators — placing control in a few hands — XRPL is public and permissionless by default, offering greater resilience and global reach.
The network also supports optional permissioned features for regulated, compliance-driven use cases.
Low, predictable transaction fees with no separate gas token; transactions are paid in XRP, which also acts as a bridge asset for cross-border payments.

Influence on Newer Chains
Schwartz noted that newer blockchains are beginning to adopt XRPL-inspired features such as deterministic finality and the Proof-of-Authority (PoA) consensus mechanism, which ensure predictable and reliable settlement — key for institutional financial applications.

Looking Ahead
The Ripple CTO anticipates upcoming XRPL upgrades will enhance programmability, expand liquidity, and add compliance-grade capabilities for institutions. He welcomed new blockchain developers to “the party,” framing the industry’s rapid expansion as a positive sign of mainstream adoption.

Tishwash: Development Plan 2024–2028: Iraq moves towards a productive economy with revenues exceeding 700 trillion dinars.

In one of the most significant economic transformations in recent years, the Iraqi government has begun implementing the National Development Plan for 2024–2028. The plan aims to transform the national economy by diversifying sources of income and reducing dependence on oil, while also addressing unemployment and boosting investment in vital sectors.

The plan, supported by a clear government vision and political will, includes profound structural reforms and precise performance indicators that are monitored periodically. This comes at a time when projected revenues are estimated at more than 710 trillion Iraqi dinars and investments exceeding 240 trillion dinars are required to achieve its goals.

While the Ministry of Planning emphasized the importance of capital allocation and investment in priority sectors, government agencies viewed the plan as a true economic lever, while economic experts considered it one of the most realistic and comprehensive plans for addressing Iraq's development challenges.

For his part, the Prime Minister's Advisor for Financial and Economic Affairs, Mazhar Mohammed Saleh, highlighted the importance of the five-year national development plan for the years 2024–2028.

Speaking to Al-Eqtisad News, Saleh emphasized that the five-year plan reflects a genuine national determination to achieve significant goals in economic progress and prosperity, noting that it relies on population census data to accurately and efficiently guide its implementation.

The advisor pointed out that the success of the five-year plan requires a combination of institutional, financial, and executive components, most notably political will embodied in the government program, with direct support from senior leadership, which has worked to protect planning institutions from fluctuations.

He also stressed the importance of providing a binding legislative and regulatory framework to transform the plan into a law that defines objectives, resources, and responsible parties, in addition to ensuring sustainable and diversified funding consisting of oil revenues, private investments, and soft development loans.

Clear performance indicators and periodic monitoring

Saleh explained that the plan relies on precise governance and continuous monitoring based on key performance indicators (KPIs), which are reviewed semi-annually to ensure commitment and actual implementation of projects.

According to Al-Sudani's advisor, the most prominent targeted indicators include "annual GDP growth of no less than 5%, an unemployment rate of no more than 8% annually, an inflation rate of no more than 5%, and a petrochemical sector contribution of 5% to GDP."

He pointed to increasing oil production to 6 million barrels per day, utilizing associated gas by 90%, and increasing the contribution of non-oil sectors to more than 50% of national income. The plan also includes indicators related to the manufacturing, health, education, and infrastructure sectors.

Professional Management and Community Engagement

Saleh added that an important success factor is the formation of specialized implementation teams to manage projects according to international standards (PMI), without quotas or regional distribution. He emphasized the importance of civil society and private sector participation in formulating and implementing the plan, including chambers of commerce and industry and unions.

He concluded by stating that the five-year plan represents a fundamental pillar of sustainable development in Iraq, and requires concerted efforts and genuine national commitment to ensure its transformation into a tangible reality that is reflected in citizens' living standards and overall economic growth.

In addition, the Ministry of Planning announced that the total revenues expected to be achieved during the five-year development plan period (2024-2028) amount to approximately 710 trillion Iraqi dinars.

The ministry's official spokesperson, Abdul Zahra Al-Hindawi, told the official agency that the largest portion of these revenues will come from the oil sector, with oil revenues expected to reach approximately 631 trillion dinars, while non-oil revenues are estimated at approximately 79 trillion dinars.

Al-Hindawi added that the five-year plan estimated the volume of investments required to achieve the targeted economic growth rate of 4.24% during its implementation period at more than 241 trillion dinars.

Meanwhile, economic researcher Ali Daadoush asserted that the recently prepared five-year plan is one of the best studies to address the reality of the Iraqi economy, addressing key economic challenges and presenting future investment opportunities to advance the country's development.

In an interview with Al-Eqtisad News, Daadoush explained that the plan sets ambitious macroeconomic trends, most notably achieving a targeted growth rate of 5% to 6% on an annual average, in addition to targeting natural inflation, stabilizing the exchange rate, and reducing the general budget deficit.

He pointed out that the plan focused on productive sectors, particularly agriculture and food industries, by adopting modern irrigation systems and strategic crops with high water returns, and by establishing specialized logistics and manufacturing zones for dates, grains, poultry, and dairy products, with the aim of enhancing import substitution and increasing local added value.

According to Daadoush, the plan also addressed challenges in other sectors, such as the digital economy, payment systems, and financial sector reform, along with private sector development and increased employment opportunities. A "single window" approach was adopted to remove regulatory barriers (such as licenses, taxes, and industrial land allocation) within a period not exceeding 72 hours, in addition to linking technical education to the needs of priority sectors.

Regarding the components of the plan's success, the researcher stressed the importance of having clear governance and issuing a playbook for projects that includes the stages of selection, financing, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation, in addition to shifting from item budgets to program and performance budgets, so that each plan includes a program with performance indicators, a direct supervisor, a specific budget, and clear outputs.

The Ministry of Planning believes that the largest share of capital formation will be allocated to the oil sector, at 27.4%, followed by the housing ownership sector, at 22.5%, and then social development services, at 20.8%.

She pointed out that "the water and electricity sector will constitute 8.6% of the total planned capital formation, while the manufacturing sector's share will be approximately 7.8% link

Iraq Economic News and Points To Ponder Thursday Afternoon 8-14-25

Iraqi Banks Are Under Liquidation, And The Central Bank Remains Silent.

August 14, 2025 Last updated: August 14, 2025 Al-Mustaqilla/- The Governor of the Central Bank of Iraq recently revealed that 10 Iraqi banks are facing liquidation due to their inability to fully provide services to customers.

In addition, some banks are facing sanctions that prevent them from dealing in US dollars.

Despite the governor's announcement, the Central Bank has yet to publish an official list of these banks on its website, raising questions about why this information has not been disclosed to customers and relevant authorities.

An informed source confirmed that the number of banks subject to liquidation may increase in the coming days, given the   ongoing financial pressures and   operational difficulties facing some banking institutions.

This development comes at a time when the Central Bank is seeking to  enhance financial stability and protect customer funds, but it faces significant challenges in enforcing  transparency and accountability for struggling banks.

Analysts suggest that not announcing the names of the banks may be aimed at   avoiding customer panic or    speculation on deposits, but it also   raises investor concerns and   raises questions about the effectiveness of banking oversight in Iraq.

As these developments continue, citizens and customers await a detailed official statement from the Central Bank revealing the names of the affected banks and the measures taken to guarantee depositors' rights.      https://mustaqila.com/10-مصارف-عراقية-تحت-التصفية-والبنك-المر/

Compared To Last Year, Expert: Non-Oil Revenues Declined By 43.6%

Economy | - 08/14/2025 Mawazine News - Baghdad - Economic expert Nabil Al-Marsoumi revealed on Thursday that non-oil revenues in Iraq declined during the first half of 2025, reaching 4.951 trillion dinars, compared to 7.118 trillion dinars in the same period last year, a decrease of 2.167 trillion dinars, or 43.6%.

Al-Marsoumi said in a post on his Facebook account, followed by Mawazine News, that "this decline is the result of lower revenues from income and wealth taxes and fees," noting that "planned non-oil revenues in the three-year budget amounted to 27 trillion dinars, which means a large gap between planned and actual revenues by the end of the year, which will lead to an increase in the actual deficit in the general budget."

He added that "the data showed a decline in the contribution of non-oil revenues to general revenues to only 8%, compared to 11% in the first half of 2024, a percentage far from the government's target of 20%." https://www.mawazin.net/Details.aspx?jimare=265088

Why Have Non-Oil Revenues Declined In Iraq? Nabil Al-Marsoumi Answers.

August 14, 2025 Baghdad/Iraq Observer Economist Nabil Al-Marsoumi explained the decline in non-oil revenues in Iraq during the first half of 2025, after recording a modest figure of 4.951 trillion dinars, compared to 7.118 trillion dinars in the first half of last year, a decrease of 2.167 trillion dinars, or a decrease of 43.6%.

He attributed this decline to a decline in revenues from income and wealth taxes and fees.
He explained in a post on his Facebook account that planned revenues in the three-year budget amounted to 27 trillion dinars, and therefore the gap between planned and actual non-oil revenues will be large at the end of the year, thus increasing the actual deficit in the general budget.

He stressed that this decline in non-oil revenues led to a decrease in their contribution to public revenues to only 8%, while they contributed 11% during the same period in 2024. This percentage is far from the target number in the government program, which is 20%. https://observeriraq.net/لماذا-تراجعت-الإيرادات-غير-النفطية-في/

The plan, supported by a clear government vision and political will, includes profound structural reforms and precise performance indicators that are monitored periodically. This comes at a time when projected revenues are estimated at more than 710 trillion Iraqi dinars and investments exceeding 240 trillion dinars are required to achieve its goals.

While the Ministry of Planning emphasized the importance of capital allocation and investment in priority sectors, government agencies viewed the plan as a true economic lever, while economic experts considered it one of the most realistic and comprehensive plans for addressing Iraq's development challenges.

For his part, the Prime Minister's Advisor for Financial and Economic Affairs, Mazhar Mohammed Saleh, highlighted the importance of the five-year national development plan for the years 2024–2028.

Speaking to Al-Eqtisad News, Saleh emphasized that the five-year plan reflects a genuine national determination to achieve significant goals in economic progress and prosperity, noting that it relies on population census data to accurately and efficiently guide its implementation.

He added that the plan's fundamental objective is to implement profound structural reforms, transforming it from a mere written document into an economic lever capable of transforming the production and employment equation and transforming Iraq from a rentier economy to a productive and competitive one, provided it is managed efficiently as a comprehensive national mission.

The advisor pointed out that the success of the five-year plan requires a combination of institutional, financial, and executive components, most notably political will embodied in the government program, with direct support from senior leadership, which has worked to protect planning institutions from fluctuations.

He also stressed the importance of providing a binding legislative and regulatory framework to transform the plan into a law that defines objectives, resources, and responsible parties, in addition to ensuring sustainable and diversified funding consisting of oil revenues, private investments, and soft development loans.

Clear performance indicators and periodic monitoring

Saleh explained that the plan relies on precise governance and continuous monitoring based on key performance indicators (KPIs), which are reviewed semi-annually to ensure commitment and actual implementation of projects.

According to Al-Sudani's advisor, the most prominent targeted indicators include "annual GDP growth of no less than 5%, an unemployment rate of no more than 8% annually, an inflation rate of no more than 5%, and a petrochemical sector contribution of 5% to GDP."

He pointed to increasing oil production to 6 million barrels per day, utilizing associated gas by 90%, and increasing the contribution of non-oil sectors to more than 50% of national income. The plan also includes indicators related to the manufacturing, health, education, and infrastructure sectors.

Professional Management and Community Engagement

Saleh added that an important success factor is the formation of specialized implementation teams to manage projects according to international standards (PMI), without quotas or regional distribution. He emphasized the importance of civil society and private sector participation in formulating and implementing the plan, including chambers of commerce and industry and unions.

He concluded by stating that the five-year plan represents a fundamental pillar of sustainable development in Iraq, and requires concerted efforts and genuine national commitment to ensure its transformation into a tangible reality that is reflected in citizens' living standards and overall economic growth.

In addition, the Ministry of Planning announced that the total revenues expected to be achieved during the five-year development plan period (2024-2028) amount to approximately 710 trillion Iraqi dinars.

The ministry's official spokesperson, Abdul Zahra Al-Hindawi, told the official agency that the largest portion of these revenues will come from the oil sector, with oil revenues expected to reach approximately 631 trillion dinars, while non-oil revenues are estimated at approximately 79 trillion dinars.

Al-Hindawi added that the five-year plan estimated the volume of investments required to achieve the targeted economic growth rate of 4.24% during its implementation period at more than 241 trillion dinars.

Meanwhile, economic researcher Ali Daadoush asserted that the recently prepared five-year plan is one of the best studies to address the reality of the Iraqi economy, addressing key economic challenges and presenting future investment opportunities to advance the country's development.

In an interview with Al-Eqtisad News, Daadoush explained that the plan sets ambitious macroeconomic trends, most notably achieving a targeted growth rate of 5% to 6% on an annual average, in addition to targeting natural inflation, stabilizing the exchange rate, and reducing the general budget deficit.

He pointed out that the plan focused on productive sectors, particularly agriculture and food industries, by adopting modern irrigation systems and strategic crops with high water returns, and by establishing specialized logistics and manufacturing zones for dates, grains, poultry, and dairy products, with the aim of enhancing import substitution and increasing local added value.

According to Daadoush, the plan also addressed challenges in other sectors, such as the digital economy, payment systems, and financial sector reform, along with private sector development and increased employment opportunities.

A "single window" approach was adopted to remove regulatory barriers (such as licenses, taxes, and industrial land allocation) within a period not exceeding 72 hours, in addition to linking technical education to the needs of priority sectors.

Regarding the components of the plan's success, the researcher stressed the importance of having clear governance and issuing a playbook for projects that includes the stages of selection, financing, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation, in addition to shifting from item budgets to program and performance budgets, so that each plan includes a program with performance indicators, a direct supervisor, a specific budget, and clear outputs.

Daadoush concluded his remarks by emphasizing the need to enact a law mandating the implementation of the national plan, in conjunction with the general budget and the government program. He considered this tripartite integration to be the cornerstone of sustainable development in Iraq.

The Ministry of Planning believes that the largest share of capital formation will be allocated to the oil sector, at 27.4%, followed by the housing ownership sector, at 22.5%, and then social development services, at 20.8%.

She pointed out that "the water and electricity sector will constitute 8.6% of the total planned capital formation, while the manufacturing sector's share will be approximately 7.8%." https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=58786

8 Smart Ways Frugal People Are Living Like There’s Already a Recession

July 17, 2025 Written by Emily Fowler Saving Money / Budgeting

Fears of a recession are growing louder, and many people aren’t waiting for an official announcement to make changes. Rising prices on essentials like rent, food and healthcare are already forcing tough choices, and these workers are finding ways to survive economic uncertainty long before a downturn becomes official.

8 Smart Ways Frugal People Are Living Like There’s Already a Recession

July 17, 2025 Written by Emily Fowler Saving Money / Budgeting

According to a study from Lance Surety Bonds, people are slashing spending, picking up extra work and moving to cheaper locations to stay ahead of rising costs. Their strategies show what it really takes to recession-proof a household when paychecks can’t keep up with inflation.

Cutting Personal Spending

More than half of frontline workers (58%) have cut personal spending to the bone. Eliminating non-essential expenses is a recommended first line of defense when paychecks don’t stretch like they used to.

Picking Up Side Hustles

More than half are bringing in extra income through side gigs. They’re not alone; 41% of U.S. consumers now have supplemental income streams, according to PYMNTS, as people try to close the gap between wages and cost of living.

FED Prepares Gold Revaluation as Debt Crisis Escalates

Taylor Kenny: 8-14-2025

The Federal Reserve is quietly preparing for a potential U.S. gold revaluation-a move that could instantly rewrite the value of America’s gold reserves, devalue the dollar, and shake the global monetary system to its core.

We are entering the final stages of the dollar’s life cycle. The question isn’t if the system changes-it’s how soon.

U.S. Debt Soars Past $37 Trillion, Years Before Expected, “Massive” QE Coming

Daniela Cambone: 8-13-2025

“We’re moving into another massive QE program,” warns Garrett Goggin, founder of Golden Portfolio and a leading gold and silver expert, in this exclusive conversation with Daniela Cambone.

Goggin sees a seismic shift ahead as the Treasury and the Fed work in lockstep to finance ballooning U.S. debt, driving rates lower and flooding the system with liquidity.

“This is truly gold’s time,” he asserts, pointing to a historic setup where overpriced growth assets give way to deeply undervalued cyclical plays like gold miners — some trading at up to a 70% discount to fair value.

With major producers “gushing cash” and retail investor exposure to gold still near decade lows, Goggin believes the sector is primed for a powerful revaluation.

“When Buffett can’t find value in growth, he’ll come for the miners,” he adds, emphasizing that record debt, political spending, and a weakening dollar are “the perfect storm” for gold and silver to go ballistic.

Ariel: Key Word “Pilot Revaluation”

Ariel: Key Word “Pilot Revaluation”

8-14-2025

“Pilot Revaluation” (Key Word)

Assuming you all didn’t know what this means is probably causing the confusion.

This is a trial phase. Where they can still come out with a rate before Q4 is over to test the waters. This would be for the people who wants to exchange a little just to cover bills. 1:1 so to speak.

Ariel: Key Word “Pilot Revaluation”

8-14-2025

“Pilot Revaluation” (Key Word)

Assuming you all didn’t know what this means is probably causing the confusion.

This notion posits that the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) might implement a preliminary revaluation potentially increasing the dinar’s value in a controlled manner before a broader rollout.

Such a phase could involve testing the new rate in select domestic or regional markets, with restrictions on trading volumes, capital flows, or international access to mitigate economic shocks like inflation or speculative bubbles.

They will choose what market is comfortable for them. But we know they have enough gold to reduce or eliminate any possibility of inflation. Which is why the announcement by the Federal Reserve is important when they spoke on a gold revaluation.

Again Iraq moves when America moves. When the Ripple-SEC case was over what did we see from Iraq? Cryptocurrency legislation.

Guess what?

This will also be the case once gold revalues. And they will get to adjust the price on the 130 tons of precious metals they have which will be used to support the Iraqi Dinar. All of this can happen this year. Full implementation can begin 1st qtr for Iraq in 2026.

They haven’t been on the International market in decades. We can’t push them off into the deep end of the pool without some safety gear on if it’s their 1st time swimming. They can start off in the shallow part of the pool 1st. They feel more in control there.

This trial phase can last a weeks, or a couple of months. I just know they are definitely positioned.

Washington Extends 90-Day Trade Truce With Beijing

The United States has extended the 90-day tariff truce with China, with President Biden signing a decree on August 11 to set a new deadline of November 10. While the extension prevents an automatic increase in customs duties, existing surcharges remain in place. This move provides more time for both sides to continue negotiations.

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

Washington Extends 90-Day Trade Truce With Beijing

Washington and Beijing extend the 90-day trade truce until November 10, maintaining current surcharges

Gold remains exempt from taxes, but other surcharges stay in effect
Discussions continue, with the U.S. pushing for more Chinese purchases of agricultural products

Content and Scope of the Extension

On August 11, the United States officially announced, via presidential decree, the 90-day extension of the trade truce. The suspension of tariff hikes will now last until November 10.

This measure halts planned increases that were set to take effect at the original deadline and keeps current tariff rates unchanged:

30% on Chinese imports
10% on American exports

The move builds on the May agreement reached in Geneva, which initially implemented a 90-day pause in tariff escalation.

China’s state news agency, Xinhua, confirmed that Beijing will apply the same extension, aligning its trade position with Washington. Both sides will continue using the dialogue framework set up in the spring, which has helped freeze tariff increases while keeping pressure on unresolved issues.

Importantly, no changes have been made to the existing tariff framework, offering short-term commercial stability.

Negotiations and Market Impact

Since May, multiple rounds of talks have taken place in Geneva, London, and Stockholm. U.S. officials note that China has taken “significant steps” toward addressing American economic and national security concerns. Negotiations remain constructive, though the U.S. is pressing for concrete concessions, especially in agricultural trade — with soybeans as a top priority.

Beijing has signaled its desire for a “positive outcome based on equality and mutual benefit.”

The extension provides businesses and markets with temporary clarity. Importers and exporters can plan operations under the current tariff structure until November 10, reducing uncertainty in the short term.

The U.S. decision to keep gold exempt from new duties has eased investor concerns, stabilizing gold prices after speculation about possible taxation.

However, other surcharges — including those on steel, aluminum, and select industrial goods — remain in place. If no agreement is reached by November 10, new tariffs could be implemented, forcing companies to prepare for multiple trade scenarios.

De-Dollarization Accelerates: Russia, China & India Embrace Crypto for Oil Trade

A new chapter in global energy commerce is unfolding as Russia, China, and India abandon U.S. dollar payments in favor of cryptocurrency settlements for oil transactions. This shift—driven by sanctions pressure and technological innovation—marks a significant step in the BRICS de-dollarization strategy, reshaping both trade mechanics and global finance.

A New Payment Architecture

Russia has developed blockchain-based payment systems enabling energy exports to be settled in Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Tether (USDT).

Buyers convert local currencies such as Chinese yuan or Indian rupees into crypto.
Payments bypass the SWIFT banking network, reaching Russian exporters directly.
The approach is already being applied in an “experimental regime” for a portion of Russia’s $192 billion in annual energy exports.

Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov confirmed:

“It is possible to use bitcoins mined here in Russia for foreign trade transactions. Such transactions are already occurring… they should be expanded and developed further.”

Strategic Consequences for Global Finance

Petrodollar Erosion – Moving oil trade away from USD undermines the traditional dollar-dominated settlement system.
Sanctions Workarounds – Direct crypto payments weaken U.S. control over energy trade flows.
Blockchain Integration Pressure – Global finance may need to adapt to crypto-native settlement rails.

This model could evolve into blockchain-native commodity platforms, where tokenized physical assets—like oil—are traded entirely on-chain.

Risks & Challenges

Despite its potential, the crypto oil trade carries:

Price volatility in crypto assets.
Regulatory fragmentation and legal uncertainty.
Cybersecurity threats to large-value international transfers.

A Precedent for Future Energy Commerce

If successful, the Russia-China-India crypto oil trade could inspire other nations to adopt non-dollar settlement models, accelerating the transition toward multi-currency, blockchain-powered energy markets—and marking one of the sharpest challenges yet to U.S. financial dominance.

4 Recession-Proof Money Habits for 2025 and Beyond

John Csiszar Tue, August 12, 2025 GOBankingRates

No matter what the state of the economy is, it seems there’s always talk of a looming recession ahead. And recessions are indeed a normal part of the business cycle, and it’s highly unlikely they’ll ever go away.

But in reality, recessions normally occur many years apart, with the economy often growing a decade or more between contractions. According to data from the National Bureau of Economic Research, for example, there have only been six recessions since 1980, a span of 45 years.

4 Recession-Proof Money Habits for 2025 and Beyond

John Csiszar Tue, August 12, 2025 GOBankingRates

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

That being said, there hasn’t been a major recession in 16 years, not counting the shortest recession on record that occurred at the onset of the coronavirus pandemic. With high interest rates, markets at peak valuations and prices on everything from groceries to cars remaining elevated, it could be a good time to implement some recession-proof money habits in 2025.

Best of all, these sound financial practices will also help you preserve and grow your wealth even if a recession never comes.

Build Your Life Around Having Excess Cash

When it comes to staying out of trouble financially, cash flow is king. No matter how much money you earn, if you spend all of it, you’ll never be financially secure.

This is why financial advisors always caution about lifestyle creep. If your income jumps from $50,000 to $60,000 per year, for example, it’s extremely common for your spending to increase by $10,000 per year also. Resist the temptation to spend every last dollar you earn or else you’ll always live paycheck to paycheck.

What are some ways to accomplish this? Setting aside money for savings and investments before you even pay your bills is a great way to build long-term wealth while learning to live beneath your means. Paying off high-interest credit card debt — or never getting into debt in the first place — is a great way to get a handle on your finances and free up your cash flow.

Tishwash: The Governor of the Central Bank of Iraq meets with the International Finance Corporation's representative in Iraq.

His Excellency the Governor of the Central Bank of Iraq, Mr. Ali Mohsen Al-Alaq, met with Mr. Bilal Al-Saghir, the Resident Representative of the International Finance Corporation (IFC) in Iraq.

During the meeting, they discussed strengthening bilateral relations between the Central Bank of Iraq and the IFC and the importance of cooperation between the two parties, particularly in the field of training banking personnel in Iraq. The two parties intend to sign a memorandum of understanding in this regard in the coming period.

His Excellency the Governor discussed the proposal to establish a leasing company with local and foreign participation. This is a financial system used to provide financing to projects and individuals without the need to directly purchase assets such as machinery and industrial equipment, vehicles, offices, and warehouses. This proposal supports emerging projects and small and medium-sized enterprises seeking easy and flexible financing.

The two parties discussed the importance of implementing the banking reform plan being implemented by the Central Bank of Iraq with the assistance of Oliver Wyman, within international standards that will enhance the soundness of the banking sector internationally and restore the ability of a group of Iraqi banks to conduct international transactions.

The Prime Minister blessed "the holding of the conference to review the projects of the IFC, which is an important partner with Iraq in joint work and the implementation of many projects in various stations and sectors," appreciating "its efforts in completing the work in a manner befitting Baghdad International Airport, given its importance to Iraq, which is witnessing a state of recovery, stability, development and reconstruction movement in all governorates."
He stressed that "Iraq's distinguished geographical location has prompted us to invest in air transport, aircraft transit and service to passengers," noting "the existence of many government projects in this field."

He stressed that "Iraq is currently attracting significant Arab and foreign investments in various sectors, exceeding $100 billion over the two years of the government's term." He explained that "Baghdad Airport is a showcase for the capital, and must receive the necessary rehabilitation and development, as well as management that provides services and generates revenues."

He indicated that "there is a real and clear opportunity to increase the number of passengers from abroad to Baghdad," pointing to "the need to reconsider the management style of the government sector, in airports and most sectors."

He stressed that "the opportunity is available at Baghdad Airport, and at the airports of Najaf, Basra, Nasiriyah and Mosul, and we have chosen successful experiences in the region for managing and operating airports," noting that "we have contracted with the International Finance Corporation (IFC) to work as a specialized advisory body to prepare the investment portfolio for the development and operation of Baghdad Airport."

The Prime Minister welcomed "all Arab and foreign companies in Iraq, as a message that it is a safe and attractive environment for investment," noting that "the government will provide support, assistance and all facilities for the companies' work."

He explained that "the project to rehabilitate, develop and operate Baghdad Airport is based on a desire to find the best coalition, company or investor that can provide a successful model for the airport." link
