Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

BRICS Finds Its Voice: India’s Gold Shift, China’s Bold Vision, and the Bloc’s Balancing Act
As Trump’s tariffs weigh on global trade, BRICS leaders search for new strategies to safeguard growth, stability, and independence.

Caution at the Virtual Summit
At the latest BRICS virtual meeting, leaders from across the 10-member alliance presented a unified, but cautious, front. Hosted by Brazil’s President Lula da Silva, the summit highlighted the challenges of navigating escalating U.S. tariffs while preserving economic stability.

• The bloc criticized U.S. trade policy but avoided direct confrontation with Trump.

• India’s Foreign Minister S. Jaishankar, standing in for Prime Minister Modi, struck a balanced tone: “Increasing barriers and complicating transactions will not help, neither would the linking of trade measures to non-trade matters.”

• Notably absent were discussions on de-dollarization or the launch of a common BRICS currency, signaling that the alliance is still proceeding carefully.

In short, the summit revealed a defensive posture: BRICS wants stability, but is not yet ready to escalate against Washington.

India’s Pivot to Gold and Away From Treasuries
Behind the diplomatic caution, however, actions speak louder than words. India has quietly reduced its U.S. Treasury holdings by $8 billion in just two months, while stepping up its gold reserves to a record 880 metric tons.

Economists see the move as part of a broader trend across emerging markets: a strategic diversification away from the U.S. dollar.

• Gold is viewed as a hedge against asset freezes like those imposed on Russia in 2022.

• India’s finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman described the pivot as a “considered decision” to protect reserves amid rising geopolitical uncertainty.

• With U.S. deficits widening, sustained selling of Treasuries by BRICS members could eventually raise borrowing costs for Washington.

This quiet shift underscores how trade tensions are translating into monetary realignment.

Xi Jinping’s Strategic Playbook
China, meanwhile, is steering BRICS toward a more assertive global role. At the summit, President Xi Jinping laid out three moves designed to shake global markets and strengthen the bloc:

1. Defend Multilateralism & Reform Global Governance – Xi called for reforms that would give the Global South greater influence in shaping international financial and trade rules.

2. Back Open Trade, Resist Protectionism – By defending WTO principles, Xi positioned BRICS as a counterweight to tariff-heavy U.S. policy.

3. Strengthen Intra-BRICS Cooperation – Xi highlighted technology, infrastructure, and finance as key areas for deeper South-South integration, tying them to China’s Belt and Road Initiative.

For investors, these proposals suggest a future where capital and trade flows increasingly bypass Western systems, tilting toward intra-BRICS networks.

Why This Matters
Individually, the summit’s cautious diplomacy, India’s gold pivot, and China’s vision may seem incremental. But together, they signal a subtle yet profound shift:

• BRICS is building resilience against U.S. economic pressure.

• Reserve diversification is quietly reducing reliance on the dollar.

• China is setting the stage for BRICS to evolve from a defensive bloc into a proactive global economic force.

As the group finds its voice, the message is clear: BRICS is no longer content to be a passive participant in a U.S.-led order. The next phase will test whether words turn into coordinated action — and how global markets adapt to a more multipolar financial system.

$1.3T CRE MELTDOWN Sparks Bank Crisis the Fed Can’t Contain

$1.3T CRE MELTDOWN Sparks Bank Crisis the Fed Can’t Contain

Taylor Kenny:  9-9-2025

Commercial real estate is about to detonate and your bank might not survive the next shock.

With legal bank bail-ins on the table, this breakdown shows you how your savings could be seized to save a failing bank.

Are US banks truly stable? Or are we standing on the precipice of another financial tremor, one quietly building beneath a veneer of calm? A recent video from ITM Trading featuring Taylor Kenney sheds a stark light on the hidden fragilities within the American banking system, pointing to a looming crisis that could reshape our financial landscape.

According to Kenney, a dangerous confluence of factors – a shrinking Federal Reserve balance sheet, massive Treasury debt issuance, and banks holding razor-thin reserves – has left the system acutely vulnerable. But the immediate, glaring threat? Commercial Real Estate (CRE).

Imagine a massive debt wall, approximately $1 to $1.3 trillion in CRE loans, all maturing this year. These weren’t just any loans; they were often financed at historically low-interest rates, think 2-3%. Now, these same borrowers face refinancing at double, even triple, those rates. This isn’t just an inconvenience; for many, it’s an unsustainable financial burden.

Compounding this, the demand for office space and commercial properties is shrinking. Vacancy rates are on the rise as businesses continue to downsize and adapt to new work models. It’s a perfect storm: dwindling income potential meeting skyrocketing debt costs.

The data is already alarming. Delinquency rates on commercial real estate loans have now surpassed those seen during the 2008 financial crisis. Office delinquency rates, in particular, have hit a record high of 11.7%.

But even these figures might not tell the whole story. Banks, in an attempt to maintain an illusion of stability, are widely employing “extend and pretend” tactics.

This means delaying the official recognition of defaults by temporarily extending payment terms, without actually addressing the underlying financial woes of the borrowers. It’s a deferral, not a solution, and it masks the true extent of the problem.

The Federal Reserve has developed tools to manage these crises, often designed to quietly support banks without the public spectacle of large-scale bailouts.

The Bank Term Funding Program (BTFP): This allowed banks to borrow against assets at inflated values, essentially providing a temporary lifeline.

The Reverse Repo Facility (RRP): Once a robust liquidity buffer holding over $2.5 trillion, the RRP allowed institutions to park cash overnight with the Fed for interest. This acted as a critical backstop for the banking system.

However, the RRP has recently shrunk to near zero. Why? The Treasury’s issuance of record amounts of short-term debt offers higher yields, attracting money market funds away from the RRP. This means a crucial liquidity buffer, a safety net for banks, is rapidly drying up, leaving the system even more exposed.

The Fed’s tools, while seemingly effective, maintain an illusion of stability that masks growing systemic risks.

The risk isn’t concentrated in a few big banks. Community and regional banks hold the majority of these vulnerable CRE loans. Furthermore, government-backed entities like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac hold over half of all multifamily loans, increasing federal exposure.

This widespread risk means any government intervention to stabilize the sector will likely be a stealth bailout, ultimately paid for by taxpayers, further devaluing the dollar.

But beyond bailouts, there’s an even more direct and chilling concern for individual savers: “bail-ins.”

Bail-ins involve the government or regulators seizing depositors’ funds to recapitalize failing banks, rather than relying on taxpayer money.

This mechanism is legal in the US and has already occurred on a small scale. It represents a direct threat to your individual savings and assets, effectively forcing you, the depositor, to rescue the banking system.

Taylor Kenney’s analysis suggests a fundamental truth: the current financial system prioritizes protecting itself over individual savers. In a world where your bank deposits can be seized in a bail-in, and your currency devalued through inflation and stealth bailouts, true wealth preservation requires stepping outside the traditional banking system.

The solution advocated is clear: physical gold and silver. These precious metals are “real money” that cannot be seized, devalued through inflation by central banks, or controlled by the traditional banking system. They offer a tangible, enduring hedge against systemic financial instability.

Some highlights by PDK-Not verbatim

MarkZ Disclaimer: Please consider everything on this call as my opinion. People who take notes do not catch everything and its best to watch the video so that you get everything in context.  Be sure to consult a professional for any financial decisions

Member: Gooood morning Mark, Andy , mods and fellow Patriots!

Member: How about 9-11 for a rv date, and it's on a Thursday

Member: Charlie Ward always liked Thursdays

MZ: Many believe 9-11 may be the date. Just remember no one knows the exact date.

Member: I’m still thinking pretty positively about this week/weekend…so many rumors!!!

Member: Remember the new fiscal year for the US and others happens on Oct. 1st….

Member: Good morning, Mark. What are your thoughts on it being completed by the end of the month?

MZ: I still think its very possible.

MZ: From the bond side its still exceptionally quiet

Member If they are under NDA’s- they have to be quiet….this is good

Member: What else does Iraq need to do so they can RV their currency?

MZ: “Uncertainty grows in Iraq over who will replace US troops after withdrawal from key bases”  Again- we were told our troops would leave when we got paid. They are leaving…so imo…there is much to watch right now.

MZ: “2027: electricity in Iraq is cut off or will they reach stability?”  It is going to reach stability. They are looking to have a first class electrical system ready by 2027. They have already made enormous progress.

Member: If they revalue the dinar…..they can pay for all the electricity they want…..imo

Member: I wonder with the Dinar going digital and the financial world turning upside down. What is the flip of the switch moment?

MZ: “Specialists: Decline in confidence in the dollar ignites gold prices” This is a good one to talk over with Andy today. Many Iraqi citizens and citizens worldwide  are holding physical gold.

MZ: this is a big one. “Rewrite the rules: $37 Trillion US debt sparks wild crypto and gold reset theory as bitcoin price soars.” We saw the video from the Economic Times as this Putin aide dropped this shocker that the plan is to write off the debt and devalue the US dollar using crypto/stablecoins to back it in gold. There it is- right out there in the open. Everything we have been talking about it our reset.l

MZ: Forbes is now reporting it as well. “US conspiring to dump debt into crypto-Putin aide drops shocker on US 37T debt”

Member: Andy and Zester has been telling us and showing us this long before the big boys and other economists did.

Member: I do not think we will see anything on the RV/reset until we go gold backed, that is just my opinion!! It makes sense to me

Member: Food for thought- Nesara Gesara was supposed to happen in that day 9/11 over 20 years ago…..maybe this year it will finally happen?

Member: I've talked to my bank manager and we have already discussed how my bank and me will handle things

MZ: I’m glad you found someone open minded and willing to talk about it.

Member: Anything new on rates…

MZ: I havn’t heard anything new on dong rates. 2 weeks ago I had a great contact tell me I have been off on rates …too low. Some believe the rate could be up to $7.90 on the dinar and maybe $5 on dong. I hope that is accurate.

MZ: Those rates would play into this one “Rewrite the rules: $37 Trillion US debt sparks wild crypto and gold reset theory as bitcoin price soars.”  And the devaluation of the dollar to make it work. That would make sense. If so, I would not be surprised if they were right.

Member: My things to do this week... 1- rv, 2- buy house...Hopefully

 Member: Have a great day to everyone. Thanks to all who keep us encouraged

Member: May God bless and keep everyone safe and healthy today.

Restored Republic via a GCR: Update as of Wed. 10 September 2025

Compiled Wed. 10 September 2025 12:01 am EST by Judy Byington

Tues. 9 Sept. 2025: A NEW DAWN — WHEN MONEY BECOMES FREEDOM

For most of your life, money has meant control. Control over where you live, What you eat, How much time you can spend with your loved ones, Whether you can rest when you’re sick, or even retire at all. Control that was never truly yours — no matter how hard you worked.

Behind every loan, every bank transfer, every “approval” there were silent systems designed not to help you, but to trap you in debt without dignity, labor without liberation, movement without meaning.

But here’s what they don’t want you to realize: That system is already breaking. And what’s replacing it will feel like breathing clean air for the first time.

What’s coming.

In Iceland, a cooperative digital wallet program now allows citizens to exchange services without using central banks. A neighbor can trade energy credits for groceries. Teachers are paid directly by the community for tutoring. No banks. No middlemen. It runs outside the fiat grid — but within a moral one.

In Ghana, rural farmers are now paid in blockchain-backed tokens — with stable value, backed by real goods, not manipulated by war or inflation. They no longer rely on banks. They rely on a field… and a phone.

In South Korea, programmable vouchers are being tested by retailers — tokens that can be used only on essentials, removing waste, corruption, and gate keeping. This is public service without bureaucracy. It’s early. But it’s real.

~~~~~~~~~~

What the World Will Look Like After NESARA. The shift won’t just be financial. It will be emotional, social, and deeply human. Here’s what it may soon look like — quietly, and then all at once:

Debts canceled, not refinanced

Basic income, not universal welfare

Affordable homes, not inflated mortgages

Health care access, not insurance bureaucracy

Time freedom, not life behind a clock

No hidden taxes, no invisible fees

Assets on your device, not locked in a vault

Local trade, global reach — no borders between you and value

True wealth, measured by impact, not credit scores

~~~~~~~~~~~

Tues. 9 Sept. 2025: GLOBAL CURRENCY RESET EXPOSED — PRECIOUS METALS & QUANTUM FINANCE IGNITE A DINAR AND DONG EXPLOSION! TRUMP’S MASTERPLAN UNVEILED: THE FUTURE OF WEALTH IS HERE! – amg-news.com – American Media Group Trump exposes plan to eliminate the IRS, collect taxes through tariffs. Trump just declared TOTAL WAR on the IRS! A plan to replace federal income tax with tariffs and restore America’s pre-1913 prosperity. The IRS is DONE — and the American people finally WIN.

~~~~~~~~~~

Global Currency Reset:

Tues. 9 Sept. 2025 Bruce The Big Call:

SS contacts say SS increases are locked in place for September.

DOGE payments, tariff dividends should also come in the month of September.

You will receive a Quantum Card and Credit Debit cards

If married couples go in together, one of you will be given the steps to access your Quantum Account. That account is only used to move monies into your bank accounts. The other partner will have access to the other bank accounts.

You can move one amount of monies out of your Quantum Account to the master account for the first 60 days. After they see how you spend it and that is ok, you will have no limit on what you can move.

If you don’t have a trust, they would like you to set up one within the first 30 days of your exchange.

We are close to getting notified. Bruce’s opinion is that we will receive a EBS notice on Thurs. 9-11.

We could get five days of disclosure that start on Thurs. 11 Sept.

‘US conspiring to dump debt into crypto, then…’: Putin aide drops shocker on America's $35T debt

The Economic Times:  9-10-2025

Russian President Vladimir Putin’s senior adviser, Anton Kobyakov, alleged that the United States may be attempting to offload its $35 trillion national debt by using cryptocurrencies and gold, a move he claims could rewrite the rules of the global financial system.

 Speaking at the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok, Kobyakov suggested that Washington could convert part of its massive debt into stablecoins, effectively 'starting from scratch' while addressing declining trust in the US dollar.

Seeds of Wisdom RV and Economic Updates Wednesday Morning 9-10-25

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

US Senate Democrats Offer Competing Framework for Crypto Market Structure
Democrats call for bipartisan cooperation as Republicans push to fast-track a market structure bill.

A Parallel Democratic Framework
A group of 12 Democratic senators has unveiled its own framework to guide crypto market structure legislation, stressing the need for a deliberate, bipartisan process. The timing comes as Republicans on the Senate banking committee prepare to advance their bill this fall.

Like the GOP’s draft released Sept. 5, the Democrats’ version calls for regulatory clarity and clearer rules for how the SEC and CFTC would oversee digital assets.

“We owe it to the millions of Americans who participate in this market to create clear rules of the road that protect consumers and safeguard our markets,” the senators wrote. “We also must ensure that digital assets are not used to finance illicit activities or to line the pockets of politicians and their families.”

Clarity vs. Politics
The Democratic framework lays out seven key pillars, including protections against illicit finance and closing regulatory gaps in the spot market. But it also openly criticizes President Donald Trump, accusing him of destabilizing regulatory agencies.

“Designing and enforcing a digital asset framework will require significant additional resources for the SEC, CFTC, and Treasury Department,” the proposal states. “In addition, President Trump has fired countless Democratic commissioners from independent regulatory agencies and shown little interest in nominating new officials.”

At present, the CFTC has just one commissioner — Acting Chair Caroline Pham — following widespread departures. Trump has nominated Brian Quintenz to replace Pham as chair, but the other four commission seats remain vacant.

Path to Passage by 2026?
Following the passage of the GENIUS Act on payment stablecoins in July, Congress is shifting focus to broader market structure rules. Republicans plan to move their bill — the Responsible Financial Innovation Act — through the banking committee in October, the agriculture committee in November, and into law by 2026.

Meanwhile, the House already passed its version, the CLARITY Act, with bipartisan support. But Democrats remain split, especially after their framework recommended new restrictions on lawmakers themselves.

Specifically, the proposal calls for prohibiting elected officials and their families from “issuing, endorsing, or profiting from digital assets while in office” and tightening disclosure requirements.

Trump’s Crypto Ties Add Friction
Democrats argue that Trump’s personal and family-linked ventures in crypto — including World Liberty Financial, a Trump memecoin, and a family-backed mining venture — complicate efforts to build consensus. Lawmakers such as Senator Elizabeth Warren have repeatedly criticized Trump’s crypto involvement as a conflict of interest.

Despite these tensions, both parties agree that establishing clear, stable rules for the digital asset market will be critical to protecting investors and enabling growth in the years ahead. Whether the two frameworks can be reconciled remains to be seen.

Why This Matters
The competing proposals highlight the political stakes in building the first comprehensive U.S. crypto market framework. With the GENIUS Act already signed into law, momentum is shifting toward legislation that defines the regulatory perimeter for exchanges, tokens, and digital asset issuers. A bipartisan solution will be essential for lasting stability.

U.S. Congress Demands 90-Day Report on Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Security

Lawmakers push Treasury to assess feasibility, cybersecurity, and national security of a federal Bitcoin reserve.

Building a Digital Fort Knox
The U.S. Congress is moving forward with legislation that would require the Treasury Department to deliver a comprehensive report on the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and broader U.S. Digital Asset Stockpile within 90 days of enactment.

The measure, filed on September 5 by Representative David Joyce (R-OH) as part of the Financial Services and General Government Appropriations Act for FY2026 (H.R. 5166), directs the Treasury to assess the feasibility, security, and accounting of a federal digital asset reserve built primarily from seized cryptocurrencies.

The bill has already cleared the House Appropriations Committee, been assigned Union Calendar No. 193, and is awaiting a floor vote. Its ultimate passage, however, will hinge on broader budget negotiations later this year.

U.S. Treasury Report to Weigh Feasibility of a Bitcoin Reserve
Currently, the federal government holds an estimated 198,000–207,000 BTC (roughly $17–20 billion), mostly acquired through law enforcement actions against darknet markets, fraud schemes, and cybercrime. Historically, these holdings were sold off at public auctions, a practice now shifting toward strategic retention.

Under the new framework, however, Treasury would need to assess the practicability of establishing a strategic Bitcoin reserve and digital asset stockpile, including potential legal or operational barriers.

The bill also calls for clarity on how these assets would be valued on the federal balance sheet, how custody would be managed, and whether outside contractors would be used for safekeeping.

Notably, the report must analyze how consolidating seized Bitcoin and other assets into a reserve would affect the Treasury Forfeiture Fund, which currently receives proceeds from asset seizures.

National Security and Cyber Defense
National security looms large in the proposal. The legislation directs Treasury and the National Security Agency to jointly prepare a classified security assessment detailing how to protect federal digital asset reserves from cyberattacks, insider threats, and foreign adversaries.

It also requires the department to outline its legal authority, cybersecurity measures, and interagency protocols for moving digital assets securely.

The timing reflects a broader political push. In March, President Donald Trump signed an executive order establishing a framework for a national Bitcoin reserve, explicitly stating that the government would not buy coins on the open market but instead rely on confiscations.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has since reinforced the message, arguing that Bitcoin can serve as a hedge and an innovation signal, while taxpayers benefit from retaining high-value assets rather than selling them off prematurely.

Strategic Pragmatism, Not a CBDC
Supporters of the bill frame it as fiscal pragmatism and geopolitical strategy. Representative Joyce said the measure ensures that the government “remains fiscally responsible, leverages new technology, and is focused on national security.”

The legislation also includes a prohibition against funding a U.S. central bank digital currency, showing Republican resistance to a government-backed CBDC.

Counterweight to BRICS Digital Currency Push
The anti-CBDC clause also stands out against the backdrop of BRICS nations advancing digital currency initiatives. China has been rapidly rolling out the digital yuan, while Russia, Brazil, and South Africa are exploring their own central bank digital currencies.

By explicitly rejecting a U.S. CBDC, Congress is signaling that America will not follow the same path as its geopolitical rivals. Instead, Washington appears to be betting on Bitcoin and decentralized assets as a strategic hedge — a move that could create a stark policy divide between Western and BRICS financial architectures.

Global Momentum for National Bitcoin Reserves
Adding urgency to the need for proper reserve classification and reporting, some U.S. states advance their own measures. Particularly, Texas has already established a state-level reserve, while other states, including New Hampshire and Arizona, have passed digital asset investment laws.

Notably, the United States is not alone in exploring crypto reserves. This week, El Salvador advanced its Bitcoin accumulation with a 21 BTC purchase to celebrate Bitcoin Day despite the IMF directory. Likewise, Kazakhstan’s president, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, recently proposed a state crypto fund to accumulate digital assets.

In the Philippines, lawmakers have considered a proposal to establish a reserve of 10,000 Bitcoin, which would make it the first in Southeast Asia to adopt such a measure. Similarly, Brazil’s Congress is considering Bill 4501/24, a proposal to create a $19 billion Bitcoin reserve, known as RESBit, under the joint oversight of the Central Bank and Finance Ministry.

Notably, Bitbo data reveals that governments worldwide hold more than 517,000 Bitcoin, equal to 2.46% of the total supply. Holdings include nearly 194,000 Bitcoin in China, over 11,000 in Bhutan, and around 6,000 in El Salvador.

Why This Matters
The U.S. move to classify, secure, and potentially formalize its Bitcoin stockpile comes at a turning point in global finance. As BRICS nations accelerate gold buying and digital currency pilots, Washington is exploring a different hedge: strategic Bitcoin reserves. Whether this strengthens America’s financial resilience or sparks new geopolitical fault lines will be closely watched worldwide.

Experts Decipher If Ripple’s XRP Lawsuit Saved Crypto World Just in Time
Rate cuts, Wall Street adoption, and Ripple’s courtroom victory may have converged at a critical moment for crypto.

Rate Cuts Spark New Investor Momentum
The U.S. Federal Reserve is expected to cut interest rates after last week’s weak jobs data, a move already sending ripples through global markets. Gold surged to a record $3,600, and analysts say crypto could be next in line.

“If rates fall, more money flows into the system,” said James Rule on the Paul Barron Podcast. “That cash won’t just stay in banks. People will look to gold, metals, and crypto. We’re already seeing new, first-time users flooding in.”

For XRP in particular, lower borrowing costs may fuel fresh retail demand. Investors increasingly view the asset as both an inflation hedge and a cross-border payments tool.

Ripple’s Lawsuit Legacy
XRP’s current position cannot be separated from Ripple’s landmark legal battle with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The agency alleged that XRP sales were unregistered securities — a case that galvanized the entire crypto community.

Attorney John Deaton led thousands of XRP holders in challenging the SEC’s claims, turning the case into a referendum on crypto’s future in the U.S.

“We all fought that fight,” Rule reflected. “And it wasn’t just about Ripple. It set the tone for all of crypto.”

The outcome, widely seen as a win for Ripple, provided legal clarity and boosted confidence among both retail investors and institutions.

Wall Street, Nasdaq, and Institutional Adoption
Signs of mainstream embrace are growing rapidly:

• Nasdaq has floated plans for tokenized securities.

• Stripe is exploring its own blockchain infrastructure.

• Ripple’s Swell conference is attracting major institutional speakers, a signal of rising corporate interest.

Together, these developments mark a turning point. “From Capitol Hill to Wall Street, the groundwork was laid by Ripple’s fight,” analysts noted.

Why This Matters
Ripple’s victory against the SEC helped clear a path for broader digital asset adoption at a time when monetary policy is loosening. With Wall Street now leaning into blockchain and institutions showing up at Ripple’s events, XRP’s dual legacy — as both a payments utility and a legal precedent — may prove decisive in shaping crypto’s future.

How To Protect Your Financial Windfall

How To Protect Your Financial Windfall

Mike Crisolago Updated Sep 6, 2025 Money Wise

The (PCH) Publisher’s Clearing House saga is a cautionary tale for anyone who comes into a large sum of money — whether it’s a sweepstakes giveaway, a lottery win or an inheritance. Without a plan, that money can dry up faster than you think.

Oregon man won ‘$5K a week forever’ in 2012, spent cash like he was set for life — but Publishers Clearing House went bankrupt. Now he might lose home

An old sweepstakes TV commercial once promised, “Only Publishers Clearing House can make you so rich, so fast!”

But, as some unlucky winners discovered this year, the opposite is also true: Publishers Clearing House (PCH) can make your fortune disappear just as quickly.

That’s what happened to John Wyllie, a 61-year-old Oregon man who won $5,000 a week for life from the PCH Prize Patrol in 2012.

According to NBC affiliate KGW8 [1], Wyllie received an annual check for $260,000 every January. The money let him retire and buy a house on six acres in scenic Bellingham, Washington. But this year, the checks suddenly stopped. A few months later, Wyllie learned why: PCH had filed for bankruptcy without warning him or other winners.

Wyllie told KGW8 the turn of events “feels like a nightmare,” made worse by the fact that he hasn’t worked in more than a decade and can’t find a job now. With bills piling up, he’s sold off big-ticket items like a jet ski and trailer, but still expects to lose his home.

For anyone who’s ever daydreamed about a life-changing win, Wyllie’s story is a harsh reminder that easy money isn’t always forever. It’s a reality check that could strike anyone who finds themselves scrambling to offset the loss.

From bankable to bankruptcy

KGW8 reported that Wyllie is one of at least 10 winners still owed money they’ll likely never receive.

That’s because ARB Interactive, which paid $7.1 million to buy PCH, announced it would only honor prizes won after it took over in July. For past winners still waiting on payments, The Wall Street Journal [2] noted they’ll “have to seek payment from the bankruptcy estate.”

“Tidbits From TNT” Wednesday Morning 9-10-2025

TNT:

Tishwash:  Is Washington's refusal to grant a Sudanese visa a political message or a diplomatic slap in the face?

An informed political source confirmed to Al-Mustaqilla on Wednesday that Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani has not yet obtained an entry visa to the United States, despite the start of the UN General Assembly meetings in New York.

The source, who spoke on condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity and accuracy of the information, stressed that the Prime Minister's Office had not received any official notification from the US embassy in Baghdad or the Iraqi embassy in Washington regarding the issuance of visas to the Iraqi delegation.

This has raised widespread questions about the reasons for this unusual delay, especially since participation in UN meetings is an international protocol open to world leaders.

The source added that the lack of clarity from Washington has prompted many observers, followers, and media outlets to raise several possibilities, most notably that the delay reflects an undeclared political stance by the US president's administration toward the current Iraqi government, or a pressure message linked to thorny and complex domestic and regional issues, amid escalating disagreements over the US military presence and relations with Iran.

Others believe the matter may be merely technical or procedural, but its timing raises questions about Washington's willingness to treat al-Sudani's government as a genuine partner, or to limit it to the status of an "international observer."

The question remains: Will Washington grant al-Sudani a visa at the last minute, or is Iraq facing a new diplomatic crisis at the United Nations?  link

Tishwash:  International praise for Iraq's balanced policies

Several NATO members, including the United States, France, Italy, and the United Kingdom, have commended the Iraqi government's policies and its efforts to address security challenges.

The delegates' praise came during a session of the North Atlantic Council, which hosted Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani yesterday, Monday, in the Belgian capital, Brussels.

Al-Sudani delivered a speech in which he noted that this meeting is being held amidst the turmoil and fundamental transformations taking place in the Middle East, the violation of the principles of the international order, the perpetration of crimes against humanity, and the threat to regional security. He emphasized the establishment of a constructive partnership with NATO based on a sovereign decision, aiming for comprehensive, long-term relations in various fields.

The Prime Minister explained that Iraq is no longer a security concern, but rather a reliable strategic partner.

Representatives from ten NATO member states, including the United States, France, Turkey, the Netherlands, Italy, the United Kingdom, Slovakia, Greece, Hungary, and Latvia, delivered interventions and expressed their positions.

Some delegates also represented the positions of several other NATO member states. International praise was paid to the Iraqi government's policies and its efforts to address security challenges, particularly those positions that have helped Iraq avoid the repercussions of the escalation currently taking place in the region.

These interventions included an emphasis on the long-term partnership between the member states of the Atlantic Council and Iraq, as well as an emphasis on the fact that Iraq represents a fundamental pillar in enhancing regional security and stability, in addition to praising Iraq's role, its balanced foreign policy, and its wise management of situations in events. 

Regional. The interventions also commended the Iraqi government's success in building the defensive capabilities of its armed forces, noting that a stable Iraq is a guarantee of regional security. They also emphasized the Atlantic Council countries' commitment to supporting Iraq's security, and emphasized that Iraq today is a force for regional peace.  link

Tishwash:  The Central Bank's fruitful efforts to achieve the comprehensive banking reform project.

Samir Al-Nusairi

The Central Bank's actions and efforts, in partnership and consultation with private banks, have been fruitful in facilitating the implementation of the objectives, mechanisms, and standards of the comprehensive banking reform project, in cooperation with the government and the global consulting firm Oliver Wyman, and the objectives and initiatives of its third strategy.

Given that economic reform begins with banking reform, the challenges facing the Iraqi economy and the opportunities for reform in the banking and financial sector are highlighted in the government's program, as are the prospects for the Central Bank's future vision for the role of the banking sector in achieving sustainable development and investment.

 The efforts currently being made to activate and revolutionize productive economic sectors other than oil to diversify sources of national income, achieve financial sustainability, and accelerate the growth of the national economy are also highlighted, as is the role of the Central Bank in regulating foreign trade financing, completing infrastructure projects to achieve comprehensive digital transformation, and expanding the use of electronic payment tools to achieve financial inclusion.

Opportunities exist to reform and develop the banking sector during 2025-2028 in accordance with the following objectives:

First: Developing the Iraqi banking system and its compliance with international banking and accounting standards.

Second: Building a sound, modern, comprehensive and flexible banking sector.

Third: Enhancing citizens' confidence in the banking sector locally and internationally, and acknowledging its transparency, progress, and strict commitment to international standards, and gaining the trust of reputable correspondent banks to deal with it.

Fourth: Rehabilitating restricted and weak banks to return to activity in the banking market with full internal and external activities.

Fifth: Transforming banks to their primary function, which is financing and bank lending for development, and enhancing financial inclusion and increasing its current rate as planned.

Sixth: Strengthening the procedures and decisions for the transition from a cash economy to a digital economy, withdrawing funds outside the banking cycle, which constitute approximately 80%, and introducing them into the banking system.

Although all the above objectives have a three-year implementation period according to the banking reform project and the Central Bank’s strategy, what was achieved in 2023 and 2024 and up to June 30, 2025 in terms of building foundations, rules and pillars formed a supportive pillar in building the mechanisms and paths of the desired reforms, and they constitute ambitious percentages as announced, which will lead to the evaluation and classification of banks based on their achievement of the planned objectives in the reform project according to the internationally approved standards and criteria  link

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

India Drives BRICS Trade Solutions, Trump Warns It Won’t End Well
New Delhi pushes for reforms inside BRICS while facing mounting pressure from Washington.

India’s Direct Challenge to Partners
At the latest BRICS virtual summit, India’s External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar, representing Prime Minister Narendra Modi, delivered a blunt message: India’s biggest trade deficits are with its BRICS partners.

Jaishankar argued that reform within the bloc is overdue, stating:
“The BRICS itself can set an example by reviewing trade flows among its member states.”

His remarks highlight the growing strain as India navigates tariff battles with the Trump administration while balancing partnerships with China and Russia.

Massive Trade Deficits Exposed
The scale of India’s trade imbalances is striking:

• India’s trade deficit with China hit a record $99.21 billion in FY 2025, with Beijing’s surplus climbing 16% this year to $77.7 billion.

• With Russia, bilateral trade reached $68.7 billion, but India’s reliance on oil imports created a $59 billion deficit.

These numbers add urgency to India’s call for BRICS reforms, especially as Trump’s tariffs complicate negotiations.

Trump Administration’s Harsh Warnings
Trump’s trade advisor Peter Navarro escalated tensions, warning India that its policies “won’t end well” if New Delhi resists cooperation in new trade talks.

Navarro criticized India’s tariffs as the “highest in any major country against the U.S.” and defended Washington’s 50% tariff on Indian goods—even harsher than the 30% levies on Chinese imports.

On energy, Navarro said bluntly:
“India never bought oil from Moscow before Russia invaded Ukraine, except for like little tiny drops of it.”

He also issued a geopolitical warning:
“If India doesn’t come around, it’s lying down with Russia and China, and that won’t end well for India.”

BRICS Alliance Under Fire
Navarro didn’t stop with India. He attacked the entire BRICS bloc, labeling its members as “vampires” draining U.S. wealth with unfair trade practices:
“None of these countries can survive if they don’t sell to the United States. Their exports are like vampires sucking our blood dry.”

China’s President Xi Jinping responded by warning that tariff wars “severely disrupt the world economy and undermine international trade rules.”

Signs of Reconciliation
Despite the heated rhetoric, Trump has also signaled a softer side, praising Modi as a “great prime minister” and emphasizing the “special” U.S.-India relationship. Modi, for his part, responded positively, suggesting that diplomacy may still offer a path to resolution.

Why This Matters
India’s push for BRICS trade reforms—and the Trump administration’s aggressive tariffs—are testing global alliances at a critical moment. Whether diplomacy or confrontation prevails will shape the trajectory of BRICS, U.S.-India relations, and broader trade stability in the years ahead.

Metals Going Parabolic: "This Is The Time" | Andy Schectman

Metals Going Parabolic: "This Is The Time" | Andy Schectman

Liberty and Finance:  9-8-2025

Miles Franklin president & CEO Andy Schectman returns to discuss why gold’s surge to record highs is less about gold rising and more about currencies collapsing.

He warns that U.S. debt levels and money printing are destroying confidence in the dollar, while central banks are hoarding gold instead of Treasuries. Heavy COMEX deliveries and short squeezes in silver highlight the growing stress in paper markets. With global bond markets rejecting rate cuts and U.S. jobs data showing weakness, Schectman sees stagflation ahead.

Are you feeling the tremors in the global financial landscape? What many consider normal market fluctuations might, in fact, be the early signs of a profound monetary reset, a once-in-a-half-century rotation of capital that could dramatically reshape our economic future.

A recent, comprehensive discussion featured on Liberty and Finance, with Andy Shakman, CEO of Miles Franklin Precious Metals, unpacks these critical shifts. His insights paint a vivid picture of a world where the US dollar’s dominance is waning, and precious metals are emerging as the ultimate safe haven.

Forget the headlines that simply cheer gold’s near-record highs. Shakman clarifies that this isn’t merely a bullish rally for gold itself; it’s a stark reflection of widespread currency depreciation worldwide.

The value of the US dollar, alongside other fiat currencies, is eroding, and gold is simply holding its own as a true store of value.

This phenomenon is dramatically underscored by the actions of foreign governments and central banks. They are increasingly divesting from US treasuries and accumulating gold at an unprecedented pace. This isn’t just a strategic shift; it signals a profound and growing lack of confidence in the dollar’s stability and the sustainability of US debt.

This isn’t just about the dollar; it’s about the questionable stability of traditional asset classes. Stocks, bonds, and even real estate, once considered pillars of wealth, are facing unprecedented volatility and inflation risks.

 In response, Andy Shakman points to a growing trend: the physical hoarding of silver and gold. Individuals and institutions are seeking tangible assets that can weather an inflationary and unstable economic environment.

The mainstream financial media, Shakman argues, has largely failed to adequately address these transformative monetary trends. Yet, the signs are all around us, pointing to a converging series of economic shifts that demand attention.

The message is clear: diversified investment strategies emphasizing gold and silver are no longer niche; they are increasingly essential wealth preservation tools.

 This isn’t just another market cycle; it’s a fundamental re-evaluation of value and risk on a global scale.

Ariel: The Wild Card Scenario

Ariel: The Wild Card Scenario

9-9-2025

The Wild Card Scenario: No Straight Lines

Do not rest on assumptions about the process.

Do not expect this to go in a straight line.

Do not think political sensitivities are concrete.

Do not place any importance on policy tweaks.

This is not going to go how we have been told.

I did a long informative article on the many variables at play. And even then I still do not think I have covered other unexpected things that can turn this entire event on its head.

Majeed:  BREAKING - Elections in Iraq may be postponed due to an upcoming "major event." An Iraqi official says the government has received information from regional and international countries—which he did not name—indicating that the elections will not be held on schedule due to a "major event" taking place in the region. https://almadapaper.net/412842/

If this event involves escalated conflicts affecting oil exports 95% of Iraq’s revenue the CBI might advance a rate adjustment to 1:1 or 3:1 USD, leveraging $150 billion in reserves and gold holdings to attract foreign investment and mitigate capital flight.

Which would be a natural reaction to what can possibly happen during this critical time. This is why I tell you all to not pay too much attention to the political theater. Bechtel as long as Iraq can they will. And you know what I mean.

This situation directly intersects with previously discussed wild card scenarios, such as a cyberattack disrupting financial networks or a political purge accelerating reforms, as the “major event” could manifest as a regional crisis forcing the Central Bank of Iraq to expedite a dinar revaluation to stabilize the economy amid chaos.

Nobody wants to be caught with their pants down in this scenario. Iraq, investors, or shareholders.

We Are About To Enter Another Phase At A Much Faster Rate Of Acceleration

Plausible Trigger Mechanisms

The initiative could commence with an executive order issued by Trump by mid September 2025, directing the declassification of quantum decryption algorithms developed at Sandia National Laboratories.

These tools, capable of breaching 256-bit AES encryption within hours, would target international banking networks, revealing $2 trillion in illicit funds diverted through offshore entities linked to historical U.S.-Iraq financial arrangements.

This exposure, including manipulation of Iraq’s $35 billion reserves held in U.S. accounts, would erode confidence in the petrodollar system, prompting a 20-30% USD depreciation over 48 hours.

Iraq’s Central Bank, safeguarding $150 billion in reserves and 162.7 tons of gold, would respond with an emergency rate adjustment this month (IMO) Utilizing XRP-integrated systems for seamless Forex entry.

The acceleration stems from the decryption’s unforeseen efficiency, outpacing traditional cyber threats and forcing immediate action to prevent capital flight.

Iraq Economic News and Points To Ponder Tuesday Afternoon 9-9-25

Parliamentary Call To Establish A "Petrodollar Fund"
 
Second and third 09/09/2025  Baghdad: Janan Al-Asadi Basra MP Asaad Al-Bazouni  called for the establishment of a special fund known as the  "Petrodollar Fund," to address  environmental pollution and the  significant rise in cancer rates in Basra, given the province's  heavy reliance on oil revenues in the general budget.   Without any real plan to address the negative impacts of oil extraction operations.

Basra MP and member of the parliamentary investment committee, Asaad Al-Bazouni, told Al-Sabah:
 
“Iraq’s revenues depend on oil for more than 90 percent of its revenues, and  most of these revenues come from Basra province,  especially after the halt in exports from the Kurdistan region.

” He explained that “despite the allocation of five dollars for every barrel of oil extracted for the benefit of the province,  these funds have not been  transferred or  received in full,   which has left approximately 27 trillion dinars owed to the province that have   not yet been disbursed.”

Al-Bazouni added,  "The efforts have not yet succeeded in providing serious solutions to the problem of environmental pollution  resulting from oil extraction operations, nor have they addressed the    rising rates of cancer among citizens.

" He explained that "serious solutions begin by directing the allocated funds of five dollars per barrel  to a 'special fund' whose mission is to  address environmental pollution and cancer in the governorate,  similar to reconstruction funds in other governorates.
 
This provides a transparent and effective mechanism for managing these funds and investing them in necessary health and environmental projects.

" He pointed out that "the establishment of this fund will  address environmental and health imbalances in the governorate and  provide direct economic and social support  to residents suffering from the effects of pollution resulting from the oil industry."
 
This demand comes at a time when local and international reports indicate a significant increase in cancer rates in Basra Governorate   due to emissions from oil gas flaring and oil extraction.
 
Hundreds of cases are recorded in the governorate each month, and   medical sources have confirmed that the number of infections exceeds official statistics,  with warnings that  this situation will continue and that  infection rates will increase in the future.    https://alsabaah.iq/120221-.html  

Iraq's Non-Oil Revenues Jump To 7 Trillion Dinars Thanks To Reforms.
 
September 9, 2025 Last updated: September 9, 2025 Al-Mustaqilla/- The Prime Minister's Advisor for Economic and Financial Affairs, Mazhar Mohammed Salih,    announced a significant jump in Iraq's non-oil revenues this year,thanks to the reform packages adopted by the government.
 
Saleh explained in a statement to the official newspaper, which was followed by Al-Mustaqilla, that 
non-oil revenues increased    from 420 billion dinars in the first half of 2023  to more than 7 trillion dinars in 2024.

He pointed out that   this growth was the result of implementing eight reform packages that included   expanding the tax base,  activating digital governance, and  developing electronic payment mechanisms, which contributed to  reducing the shadow economy and  enhancing the transparency of financial performance.  

He added that  the three-year general budget law increased the contribution of non-oil revenues  to approximately 20% of total revenues, an important step toward  reducing dependence on oil as the primary source of economic revenue.

Saleh explained that  these reforms were not limited to the financial aspect alone, but also included strengthening partnerships with the  private sector and  supporting youth entrepreneurship through the launch of the Riyada Bank,  which aims to   finance productive projects and  encourage innovation.
 
Experts believe that these indicators represent a   strategic shift in the structure of the Iraqi economy,particularly as   the government seeks to   diversify sources of income and  promote sustainable development, independent of the fluctuations in global oil markets.        https://mustaqila.com/إيرادات-العراق-غير-النفطية-تقفز-إلى-7-تر/  

 Strengthening Digital Infrastructure
 
Economic 09/09/2025   Dr. Nabil Rahim Al-Abbadi Electronic signatures are   a cornerstone of banks' digital transformation,   providing a   reliable technical and legal basis  for electronic transactions.
 
This aligns with Iraq's efforts to improve its digital infrastructure,  as stated by the Minister of Communications.
 
Relying on electronic signatures will reduce the need for paper documents, lowering operational costs associated with printing,  torage, and   ransportation.
 
It will also speed up transaction procedures such as opening accounts and  issuing loans,    reducing waiting times from days to minutes in some cases. Furthermore,  it uses advanced encryption technologies,  reducing the chances of forgery and fraud.
 
This enhances customer confidence in digital banking services, a vital step in an environment marked by increasing cyber risks. 

Having an internationally recognized electronic signature  means that Iraqi banking documents and transactions  will be accepted internationally, opening doors for cooperation with international banks and  making Iraq more attractive to foreign investment.
 
Digital signatures are the fuel for accelerating digital banks  (or digital branches of traditional banks), enabling the provision of complete services online without the need for a physical presence, such as  opening accounts completely remotely,  signing contracts and agreements securely, and completing lending and financing transactions seamlessly.
 
With a solid legal and technical foundation, banks can  develop and  offer innovative financial services such as mobile banking with a more secure experience,  crowdfunding platforms  that require authenticated signatures on agreements, and  Wealth-Tech (digital wealth management) services  that rely on secure electronic contracts.
 
Electronic signatures eliminate geographical barriers,  allowing banks to reach  customers in remote areas or those who prefer a fully digital banking experience.
 
This aligns with the digital transformation vision that aims to include all citizens.
 
Despite the significant advantages, the  success of e-signatures in the Iraqi banking sector  faces some challenges, most notably   digital infrastructure.
 Gaps in internet coverage and  reliability remain in some areas of Iraq, potentially  limiting the effectiveness of e-signatures.

 Culture and trust are also key here, and both customers and employees need to be educated about the importance and security  of e-signatures.
 
Intensive training programs are also needed,  as is cybersecurity.
 
With increased reliance on digitization, banks increasingly need to invest heavily in advanced cybersecurity systems  to protect  customer data and transactions   from attacks.
 
The launch of e-signatures in Iraq  is a step in the right direction and  could be a powerful catalyst for the banking sector.
 
To realize the full benefits,   collaboration between the  public and  private sectors  is essential:
 
Banks should work closely with the  Ministry of Communications and  regulatory authorities to  ensure that e-signature systems comply with international standards,   invest in infrastructure and security, and  adopt technologies such as  cloud computing and    blockchain    to enhance security and efficiency.
 
I see the imperative of organizing comprehensive awareness campaigns    to educate customers  on the benefits and use of electronic signatures  to build trust and drive adoption.

 I also believe  it is imperative to conduct ongoing training for staff  to develop the skills of bank employees to navigate new technologies and  manage digital platforms efficiently. 

 In short, this decision is not just a technical addition, but a strategic shift   that lays the foundation for the Iraqi banking sector to compete regionally and globally, and to enter the era of digital banking with confidence and security. https://alsabaah.iq/120203-.html
