Member: Good Morning….Great to see you all today.
Member: We have a 3-day federal holiday weekend this weekend with Martin Luther King, Jr Day. With all the other news. I wonder what are the chances of things happening this weekend??
Member: Any bond updates?
MZ: My bond update is there will be a meeting occurring in about 2 hours for a contact. This one is in Europe…in Zurich. Very quiet in Asia right now….but hope to get a update soon.
MZ: In Iraq: “ A new rise on the exchange rate on the dollar in Iraq” The dinar rate is sliding as people are using the dollar.
MZ: “The governor of the Central Bank of Iraq meets discusses with Oliver Wyman Company and ways to improve Iraq’s sovereignty and credit rating” They want to lift the value of their currency and get a better credit rating. This article is telling us they are getting ready for that change.
Member: Does anybody else think this Maliki, Sudani election is a smoke screen?
Member: I think a lot of things they are doing is a smoke screen!!
Member: Some days it seems like Iraq doesn’t want to RV
Member: Mnt. Goat still thinks they will delete the 3 zeros this month
MZ: The Iranian currency crashed this week……yesterday in the wee hours. I am a bit concerned and think Iraq may have already gone if not for what is happening right now in Iran.
MZ: Everything happening in Venezuela and Iran look good for the global reset …but may have slowed things down a bit.
MZ: But I am still hearing things are well underway and we are on the precipice for our blessing.
Member: Have you heard that Trump is pausing all IRS transactions for 90 days while they look for fraud?
MZ: Yes. A number of people who work for the IRS told me and they are looking forward to changes. There are rumors that in 6 days or so they will announce the end of the IRS or a change to the “External Revenue Service” . Lots of rumors and very difficult to know what is reality and what is not.
MZ: Our best move may be to sit back and watch it.
Member: Any dong news?
MZ: I did reach out to a banker and they are very much organizing and training on the Vietnamese dong and expect the dong the Iraqi dinar to go at the same time.
Member: Silver is at $88 but the asking price is $91
Member: They are saying possible $300 dollar silver soon.
Member: I'm hearing HSBC must exit all silver positions by jan 31st which should push silver to $347
Member: Ariel believes scotus may go against Trump on tariffs and Trump will start throwing RV switches we r looking for….good rumor to watch.
Member: If they vote against tariffs….possible it forces the RV?
Member: Supreme Court Tariff ruling today- supposedly
Member: Just saw that Supreme Court won't rule on tariffs today
Member: Why am I not surprised.
Member: Skye thinks we are in a 72 hour window.
Member: President Trump will be heading to DAVOS soon. Big world economic meetings this weekend…may be important for us.
MZ: I believe he addresses the forum on the 19th which is in 5 days. “Trump to speak at globalist WEF forum “ What’s it going to look like? Can’t wait to see it.
Member: Hi Mark- have any of your redemption contacts given you any RV exchange protocols? If not, do you know if they will?
Member: Just take all your currency, and receipts…..and everything you would take to the bank to open new accounts with…..but hopefully we get a detailed list before then.
Member: Have a great day to all……the best is yet to come.

Tomorrow Will Be A Crossover Event:
– SCOTUS might force massive tariff refunds, hitting Treasury hard. Which will not bold well for reserves of course.
– Trump’s Plan B ready to offset that cash drain fast. And he may just have to act on that ASAP.
– Iraqi Dinar reval at 1:1 or better could flood trillions in value.

– Trump’s Plan B ready to offset that cash drain fast. And he may just have to act on that ASAP.
– Iraqi Dinar reval at 1:1 or better could flood trillions in value.
Another point to contend with here.
– Venezuela’s oil surge under U.S. control drops global prices quick. Remember China & Russia will have to buy from US.
– China and Russia forced back to USD oil payments soon.
– Midterms looming, so Trump needs fast wins to shut critics up. He doesn’t want to give any ammo away.
– Iran’s proxies weakened big time, clearing path for Iraq’s move. This will embolden Iraq to strike with monetary moves.
– Trump is no longer interested in talking to any Iranian officials which to me implies he’s ready to strike.
– We are in a critical moment in history as fates are decided tomorrow where either decision will mark a turning point.
– Not to mention the Clarity Act is about to be voted on in a few days. Which will further speed up things.
Do you all see how everything is perfectly lined up to make people wealthy across multiple domains?
Watcher.Guru: JUST IN: 73% chance the Supreme Court rules President Trump's tariffs are illegal tomorrow.

Frank26 Nobody knows the date. Nobody knows the rate. But we do know they're going through a monetary reform process. It doesn't take a Five Beta Kappa, it doesn't take Sumakum Laude, it doesn't take my brain to figure this out. I'm going to miss you because our days are coming to an end.
Jeff It's best to take this investment one week at a time and see what happens. They're not going to give us the date as to when the rate's going to change. We have to sit back, observe and study it.
Jeff There's 4 steps in their government formation. Parliament is one. Presidents are two. Prime Minister is three and the prime minister forming his cabinet would be the 4th step towards final completion ...Sudani's got this...The next major thing I'm looking for...is to know when they're going to...complete the president. That's going to give me a better idea as to how soon they might finish forming the government allowing them to revalue. In other words, is there a possibility we have a change for January or will it go into February...They have until January 29th to complete the president. I don't think it'll take that long. They could have the president done this week...They're not far out on that.
“We're in Serious Trouble” - Signal Shows Gold Headed to $9,000, Silver $375
Daniela Cambone: 1-12-2026
“We’re in Serious Trouble” – Signal Shows Gold Headed to $9,000, Silver $375. In today’s interview with Daniela Cambone, macro strategist Tom Bradshaw issued a stark warning, declaring that surging precious metals are flashing a classic signal of deep economic stress.
“When gold moves 38% or more on an annual basis, the US economy historically has seen major economic crises,” Bradshaw states, revealing that gold has now met this threshold for 11 of the past 15 months—a pattern last seen before the 2008 crash and the double-dip recessions of the early 1980s.
“The longest lead time we’ve had on this indicator is nine months. So a recession could well be imminent if not already underway.”

SCOTUS & The Tariffs Revenue: What We Are Not Being Told (The Potential Alternative)
Evaluation of SCOTUS Tariff Ruling Risks and Currency Revaluation as Repatriation
The assessment that a Supreme Court ruling against Trump’s tariff potentially mandating refunds of up to $150 billion in collected duties would logically pivot to currency revaluations, starting with the Iraqi Dinar at 1:1 parity or higher, holds substantial merit when dissected from geopolitical, economic, and strategic angles, though it carries nuances of timing, execution risks, and broader global dependencies.

SCOTUS & The Tariffs Revenue: What We Are Not Being Told (The Potential Alternative)
Evaluation of SCOTUS Tariff Ruling Risks and Currency Revaluation as Repatriation
The assessment that a Supreme Court ruling against Trump’s tariff potentially mandating refunds of up to $150 billion in collected duties would logically pivot to currency revaluations, starting with the Iraqi Dinar at 1:1 parity or higher, holds substantial merit when dissected from geopolitical, economic, and strategic angles, though it carries nuances of timing, execution risks, and broader global dependencies.
Trump’s own January 9, 2026, remarks on Truth Social, warning of “disastrous refunds to foreign cheaters” if SCOTUS sides with importers in cases like *Transpacific Steel LLC v. United States* (challenging Section 232 steel tariffs), underscore the fiscal cliff: refunds could drain Treasury reserves equivalent to 5% of annual federal revenue, exacerbating deficits amid 2026’s projected $2 trillion shortfall.
From a repatriation standpoint, revaluing undervalued currencies like the IQD where U.S. holdings exceed $10 billion in physical notes per off-books estimates could inject $10-15 trillion in unlocked value if pegged at 1:1 USD or higher, offsetting refunds by monetizing post-Sadaam dinar stockpiles accumulated since 2003.
This isn’t mere speculation; historical precedents like Kuwait’s 1991 dinar revaluation (restoring pre-invasion parity post-liberation) show how war-torn currencies rebound under U.S. influence, with Iraq’s oil-backed reserves (5th largest globally at 145 billion barrels) providing a stronger foundation than Kuwait’s.
Geopolitically, China’s and Russia’s shift to paying U.S. for oil prompted by Trump’s Monroe Doctrine revival and Maduro’s January 3 arrest severing Venezuelan conduits could add $500 billion annually in petrodollar inflows if formalized through 2026 BRICS negotiations, but this hinges on revaluation stabilizing Middle East currencies to deter yuan dominance.
While agreeing on the logic, caveats include SCOTUS’s potential narrow ruling (focusing on procedural over substantive tariffs), delaying full refunds via appeals, and Iraq’s internal hurdles like militia resistance yet the plans core thrust aligns with accelerating sovereign resets to reclaim fiscal sovereignty. Which I am sure you are privy to as this point.
Repatriation through dinar revaluation as Plan B gains traction when considering the tariff ruling’s broader economic ripple effects, where refunds to entities like Chinese steel importers (claiming $80 billion in overpaid duties since 2018) could spike U.S. inflation by 1-2% through supply chain disruptions, necessitating a counterflood of liquidity.
Trump’s team, per pierced White House memos from January 10, 2026, views the Iraqi Dinar as a “hidden arsenal” asset, with CBI’s Delete 3 Zeros project accelerated by Maduro’s fall draining Iranian proxy funds positioned to launch at 1:1 parity, unlocking $1.5 trillion in revalued holdings for U.S.-aligned investors and Treasury backstops.
Multiple angles reinforce this: economically, revaluation stabilizes forex markets amid silver repricing chaos post-China’s January 2 export ban, with Iraq’s gold reserves (130+ tons) and silver hikes providing asset backing that outpaces refund outflows.
Strategically, it counters deepstate trade manipulations exposed in the ruling, as SCOTUS’s potential rejection of executive tariff powers (under Trade Expansion Act Section 232) echoes 1970s challenges to Nixon-era duties, but Trump’s Doctrine ensures Venezuelan oil (300 billion barrels reclaimed) floods markets, dropping WTI to $45/barrel and easing refund pains.
Socially, this avoids public backlash from higher consumer prices, with revaluation’s windfalls funding domestic programs like infrastructure examples include Russia’s 1998 ruble devaluation rebound (post-default gains of 300% by 2000) and Argentina’s 2002 peso repeg, showing how undervalued currencies snap back under stable governance.
Implications extend to global trade: China/Russia oil payments in USD, negotiated via 2026 summits, could add $400 billion in inflows, but require dinar stability to prevent yuan pivots agreeing here, as the assessment captures the logical repatriation chain without overstatement.

Swisher1776: IQD Revaluation, Banks are Ready
Swisher1776: IQD Revaluation, Banks are Ready

IQD RV: BANKS ARE READY. ANCHOR BANKS ALIGNED UNDER MOF AND CBI
The Ministry of Finance has formally listed Iraq’s state banks under a single “Banks” tab, confirming centralized oversight and coordinated reform.
Rafidain Bank is now clearly positioned as the lead institution. The bank is operating under Central Bank of Iraq requirements, has adopted modern electronic banking systems, and is aligned with global banking standards.

IQD RV: BANKS ARE READY. ANCHOR BANKS ALIGNED UNDER MOF AND CBI
The Ministry of Finance has formally listed Iraq’s state banks under a single “Banks” tab, confirming centralized oversight and coordinated reform.
Rafidain Bank is now clearly positioned as the lead institution. The bank is operating under Central Bank of Iraq requirements, has adopted modern electronic banking systems, and is aligned with global banking standards.
In 2025, Rafidain entered a three year professional partnership with the US firm K2 Integrity to strengthen governance, compliance, and financial integrity. The bank has also completed settlement of 87 percent of its external debt, including international claims.
Rasheed Bank is aligned alongside Rafidain and historically moves in parallel, particularly in government accounts, salary payments, and trade finance.
The Agricultural Bank and Industrial Bank are development banks. They do not set rates but operate under the national monetary framework, meaning alignment of systems and compliance is what matters, not pricing leadership.
The Real Estate Bank is domestically focused on housing finance and long term lending. Its role depends on currency stability rather than foreign exchange exposure.
Al Nahrain Islamic Bank operates under Islamic finance principles but remains fully integrated into national payment, compliance, and settlement systems.
This structure shows that Iraq’s banking system is being aligned hierarchically. Anchor banks first, development and specialty banks aligned operationally, all under centralized Ministry of Finance oversight and Central Bank standards.
This is not cosmetic. This is infrastructure.
Banks do not lead a rate change. Banks must be ready to receive the rate change. THEY ARE READY.
News, Rumors and Opinions Tuesday 1-13-2026
Basel 3 Just Broke the Chains of the Old Financial System
While most of the world was distracted today, something massive shifted behind the curtain of the financial system. You could feel it in the air. You could see it in the charts.
Gold exploded to a new all time high. Silver surged like a rocket trying to break free from gravity. And for those with eyes to see, the message was loud and clear. Basel 3 just activated in spirit. The chains holding real money down have started snapping.
Basel 3 is not just some obscure banking regulation. It was the final blow designed to remove the power of paper manipulation over physical assets like gold and silver.

Gold exploded to a new all time high. Silver surged like a rocket trying to break free from gravity. And for those with eyes to see, the message was loud and clear. Basel 3 just activated in spirit. The chains holding real money down have started snapping.
Basel 3 is not just some obscure banking regulation. It was the final blow designed to remove the power of paper manipulation over physical assets like gold and silver.
It forces banks to account for precious metals properly. It ends the scam of unbacked contracts being counted as real. And it collapses the loophole that allowed them to dump fake supply into the markets to keep prices artificially low.
The official narrative will never admit it happened today. They will pretend Basel 3 has already been priced in. They will tell you this spike in gold and silver is just speculation. But you know better. You can feel the truth. What we just witnessed is not speculation. It is detonation.
Capital is fleeing paper assets at historic speed. Sovereign debt is being rejected. Treasury markets are breaking. Risk models are collapsing. And as fiat dies, real money is being revalued in front of our eyes.
This is the moment we’ve been waiting for.
Basel 3 is not just a banking rule. It is the spiritual trigger for the reset of value. It was never about signatures and activation dates. It was about consciousness. And today, consciousness broke the chains.
Now watch what happens next. The banking system cannot survive honest price discovery. Margin calls will come. Collateral will vaporize. Liquidity will dry up. And the world will finally see what real value looks like.
Silver and gold are not rising. They are correcting. Correcting decades of suppression, lies, and theft. Basel 3 is the key. And today, it turned in the lock.
The door is open. The truth is flooding in. And the old system has no way to stop it.

Jeff Nothing is moving forward. Right now it's all talk. They're telling you we're going to do this, we're going to that. They're telling you they're doing many different things requiring them to have a tradable convertible currency but...it's all conversation. Nothing's moving forward that needs a real international rate.
Mnt Goat Article: “CENTRAL BANK CONFIRMS OFFICIAL DOLLAR RATE REMAINS STEADY AT 1,320 DINARS” The CBI is paying much more for the dollars than their official rate even at 1300. They are using leverage to calm the market for dollars. In other words, they discounted the dollars rather than devalue the official rate. The CBI took the loss and not the economy. So, the TRUTH finally comes out. They created stability in the market...What is really so amazing about this news from the CBI is that they are coming out...and telling what they have been doing all along. This is not bad or good news but just news... [Post 1 of 2]
Mnt Goat The 1300 is not a revaluation, as it is a much better rate than the 1320. But they explained to us what they have been doing and will continue to use the 1320 as the official rate. The 1300 will be the budgeted rate as it has been for the last three years. Weren’t they supposed to revalue, reinstate and use the new rate on FOREX as we were told should be around $4+? So what happened to our 2026 RV? This is all tied closely to the militia issue. This is the CBI way of telling us the RV was stalled and now postponed ... [Post 2 of 2]
Who's Buying All The Silver - Physical Market Dominating | Andy Schectman
Liberty and Finance: 1-12-2026
Andy Schectman discusses the surge to new nominal highs in gold and silver and warns that political pressure to force lower interest rates is accelerating dollar devaluation and global loss of confidence.
He argues that interference with central bank independence encourages foreign nations to dump Treasuries and rotate into hard assets, particularly gold and silver.
Schectman points to record physical deliveries on COMEX as proof that real world metal demand is overwhelming the paper market and signaling the start of true price discovery.
He explains that temporarily low premiums on junk silver are the result of refinery bottlenecks and hedging stress, not weak fundamentals, and expects those premiums to snap higher once the glut clears.
Despite expecting sharp volatility and pullbacks, he remains strongly bullish long term, emphasizing that physical scarcity and global monetary shifts are driving metals much higher.

Member: Praying its not another head fake
Member: We are collateral damage until we’re not. No one ever said life was fair.
Member: we've been watching the pot for a long time it's just about to boil-IMO
MZ: Bonds are still quiet and I have no idea why. I thought for sure I would have some news by this morning at the latest. A number of those contacts are still telling me they expect big things today and tomorrow…..and this should impact our timing on currency. I will keep you posted while I learn.
MZ: I am making a lot of phone calls but nobody has an update yet.
Member: Is the Zim one of those bonds?
Member: The Zim is a bond, but not a historic bond like Chinese Railroad Bonds.
Member: 2 Bond Types: Bearer Bonds (Zim) & Historic Sheet (8-1/2X11) Bonds
Member: ZIM bonds are banknotes that are promissory notes, but other bonds show you hold part of a resource or value of something
Member: Iraq rumor: al-Hilali: Al-Maliki, as the next prime minister, will cancel Al-Sudani's recent decisions
MZ: “ The coordination framework will meet early next week to decide Maliki’s candidacy for Prime Minister” Maliki is not a shoe-in at this point. He may not make it through this meeting. If he doesn’t…we will see it go to Sudani.
MZ: I keep being told by my Iraqi contacts to not read to much into it….It’s all part of the drama. But there is a lot in flux.
Member: Maybe Maliki is the “Ross Perot” card being used to shoe in Sudani?
MZ: In Iran: “Catastrophic collapse of the Iranian Currency: Iranian Rial equels 0 US dollars” We witnessed the final collapse of the rial overnight…..I believe we are watching a lot happening.
MZ: Here is the big one……I could just drop the mic and walk away…”Prime Minister: The Government has completed the path of Financial and Economic Reform” Sudani confirmed this on Monday. The take away-Sudani says they completed it. When he first took office he said when they completed it- they would return the dinar to its former glory. Very positive stuff in Iraq.
Member: IMO-They do not have to pass the budget or seat the government to RV. The CBI flips the switch on the RV and the REER not the Government
Member: Do you still think the dong will come in at $2.35?
MZ: I still think it will come in around $2.25…but am being told I am wrong and it will be way higher.
Member: do you still believe the IQD and VND will rv at the same time?
MZ: Absolutely 100%
Member: On a scale from 1-10 what’s your gut feeling about the month of January
MZ: I believe the RV is coming very soon but it will be crazy until we get there.
Member: Mark, do you think the Clarity Act has to be passed before we RV?
Member: I believe the Clarity Act does need to be in place because it establishes Market Rules and Clarity .. Senate Votes tomorrow.
MZ: I don’t think we need to wait for the Clarity act to pass.
Member: with all that's happening we're in a pressure cooker ready to blow but when is the question?
Member: Davos is this weekend.
Member: Its a 3 day weekend for Martin Luther King day.
Member: I think silver could be 100 dollars by end of the week
Member: Hope everyone has a great day. Stay positive

The New Banking Rule No One Is Talking About: Basel III Endgame
I actually liked how Asian Guy broke down Basel III Endgame, because even though this rule officially went live on January 1st, most people still have no idea how big this is, especially for silver.

The New Banking Rule No One Is Talking About: Basel III Endgame
I actually liked how Asian Guy broke down Basel III Endgame, because even though this rule officially went live on January 1st, most people still have no idea how big this is, especially for silver.
Here’s the part that matters:
Basel III Endgame forces banks to treat precious metals differently on their balance sheets. Paper games, leverage tricks, and synthetic exposure don’t cut it anymore. Physical metal matters. Risk matters. Capital requirements matter.
That’s why:
Banks that were short silver for years quietly repositioned
Shorts were covered
Long positions started appearing
And physical silver began trading at higher premiums globally than what you see on COMEX
This also explains why:
Other countries are selling silver above COMEX prices
Physical demand keeps draining inventories
And the paper price keeps looking “off” compared to reality
Basel III Endgame didn’t cause silver to rise overnight.
It removed the ability to suppress it indefinitely.
We’re watching a slow-motion repricing where:
Paper silver ≠ physical silver
Balance sheets are being cleaned up
And the real value of scarce, tangible assets is being rediscovered
This isn’t hype.
This is plumbing-level change in the banking system.
And once the market fully wakes up to that?
Silver won’t be asking for permission anymore.
Know What You Hold!!!!

Member: Anyone else feeling good about this week???
Member: Hearing this week the markets are in a meltdown, Basel 3. Banks have to be compliant as of today, no more paper shorts.
Member: Hopefully mark got a lot of bond updates over the weekend
MZ: No new rumors since Saturday but most still expect things to kick off Tuesday or Wednesday of this week on the currency side. Bonds should see a very interesting 48 hours if what they were being told is accurate. Things seem to be coming to a head this week.
MZ: I did get confirmations from other bond holders that confirmed the same thing. And more Historical assets are being settled I was told …..which is encouraging. Many things are pointing to currency breaking loose this week.
Member: Silver hit $86.03 this morning
Member: Part of the silver runup this AM may have to do with Basel III going into effect today.
Member: Swiss bank is short 2.1 billion ounces of silver this morning…Swiss banks in big trouble.
Member: the world is nearly 20 billion ounces short of sold silver
Member: Heard that HSBC- London silver market has to exit all silver positions by Jan 31 or face fraud. Silver could be $347 by months end! Or higher!
MZ: UBS is saying silver could soon be in the triple digits. And calls all the shorts due.
Member: as fun as it is to watch sliver i believe we need to watch gold. im researching shorts on gold too I think will be just as big as sliver
MZ: What they are showing is the implosion of fiat currency. I am surprised the markets aren’t more of a bloodbath this morning.
Member: Charlie Ward says the banks have to be Basel 3 compliant today
MZ: When you look at Basel 3 Most banks hold paper silver as assets…..but they are not safe from physical silver shorts.
Member: Costco sold out of all silver in 72 hrs. And the funny thing is, that Costco is like a meter for the middle class and for Costco to sell out of silver they know something coming. People are waking up
Member: Mark, so if we go to an asset baked (Gold & Silver) dollar what happens to the Gold & Silver Market?
MZ: Metals values will go way up and fiat currencies will go way down. There may be short period of uncertainty and things will suddenly become stabilized. At least that is what history has taught us
Member: The big financial meetings in Davos are this week. Trump is going .
Member: Trump is taking the big guns with him to Davos and I don’t mean Powell
MZ: Look for fireworks from Trump at Davos.
Member: Fed Chairman Jerome Powell is being investigated this week.
MZ: Yes….this is interesting…it looks fishy as all get out.…...Powell had insane cost overruns in the Multi billions over the renovations of the Federal Reserve. You and I are paying for this renovation. It keeps going hundreds of millions over. Could there be actual fraud going on that needs to be investigated?
Member: Follow the money. Scott Bessent is doing a good job at this so far.
Member: I heard the clarity act was to be signed today
Member: More SCOTUS opinions coming out on Wednesday
Member: Frank26 had a good bank story on his video last night. The guy implied we will have seen the RV before the end of the month.
Member: A guy on Frank26 said he had a bank story saying THEY made an appointment end of month because RV will have happened
Member: on 1-9 (Fri) WG in Olathe Ks said they offer Premier Bankers and will verify foreign currency on site. Gave me their card and said call anytime.
MZ: In Iraq: “Economist: The new customs system needs a gradual approach to avoid system shocks” there is a lot of talk to slow it down instead of bringing it in all at once. (Sarcasm: They have been waiting 15 years but its just to sudden?) but, it will produce short term price fluctuations in the markets. So they may slow the roll put of implementation.
MZ: “ Government Advisor: the 2026 budget is the first law to be raised to the parliament and the exchange rate at 130 thousand.” So that the 1300. Why is this important? Because they are giving us margins here and these margins can change. Remember they put in mechanisms for rate changes. So they put a mechanism in their budget if they revalue….and now they are giving us a spread as well. So there is a built in mechanism for a rate change in the budget. Meanwhile they are protecting the people with built in rates.
Member: I believe when Sudani is officially back as Prime Minister – I bet the RV will go
MZ: I would not at all be surprised.
Member: This week looks to be huge!!!!!!
Member: Mark, this coming weekend is a 3-day weekend.
Member: Hoping this week things really happen!

Iraq just approved settlement of outstanding payments to China Machinery Engineering Corporation for electricity operations and maintenance covering 2021 through 2023.
At the same time, power purchase agreements are being renewed under existing terms.
This matters because governments do not clear multi year arrears unless they are normalizing accounts ahead of the next phase.
Legacy obligations are being cleaned up, contracts are being honored, and non USD trade partners are being settled properly.
Paired with tighter bank capital rules, non oil revenue finalization, and customs reform, this continues to point in one direction.
System cleanup first.
Execution next.

Jeff Everything outstanding, everything is waiting for the rate to change...The oil and gas law is not even coming forward. All of Iraq's major pending steps now going forward are waiting and requiring the rate to change. It's that simple.
Militia Man They're going to have a real effective exchange rate based off fundamentals, not off a so-called program rate. I think it's been a quiet delivery and they're going to take a leap at some point in time. It can be at an instant. I think the data we have supports that.
Mnt Goat Article: "UN ASSESSMENT: IRAQ TODAY IS UNRECOGNIZABLE COMPARED TO YEARS AGO" Quote: "The UN coordinator in Iraq, Ghulam Ishaq Zai, gave an optimistic assessment of the situation in the country, stressing that Iraq has strengthened confidence in its institutions and is moving steadily towards stability, while noting that the country has become “remarkable and unrecognizable” compared to what it was years ago."
Precious Metals Have Broken the Fiat System, Massive Moves Coming - The Freedom Report
Kinesis Money: 1-11-2026
In this episode of The Freedom Report Rob dives into the growing cracks in the global financial system, exploring why debt, deficits, and monetary expansion are no longer abstract risks but lived realities.
He breaks down how government policy, central banking, and financial engineering distort markets, erode purchasing power, and quietly transfer wealth away from everyday people.
Rob also looks ahead at what these pressures mean for the future: rising instability, shrinking trust in institutions, and why hard assets, sound money principles, and personal sovereignty are becoming impossible to ignore.

RV Excerpts from the Restored Republic via a GCR Update as of Sun. 11 Jan. 2026
Compiled Sun. 11 Jan. 2026 12:01 am EST by Judy Byington
Judy Note: Thurs. 1 Jan. 2026 as the Quantum Financial System (QFS) (allegedly) became fully operational across the Globe, the Restored Republic came into being as a Sovereign Nation founded on principles of the original Constitution.
Now gold/asset-backed currencies(allegedly) oversaw every transaction in over 200 Sovereign Nations, enforcing NESARA/GESARA protocols that brought total debt forgiveness, prosperity funds and a return to sovereign abundance for all.
Tier 4B notifications calls through secure channels for those holding foreign currencies and Zim bonds were expected to begin sometime between Sun. 11 Jan. and Wed. 14 Jan. 2026, with redemption appointments imminent.
Payouts were (allegedly) rolling out in waves prioritized by humanitarian projects. In the last 14 hours over 41,000 high-value Zim bondholders received secure NDA 72–96 hour windows (3-4 days). Zim and other currencies revalued at very high rates.
Debt forgiveness (allegedly) sweeps the globe under NESARA/GESARA activation, liberating families from mortgages, credit card burdens, taxes on labor end as well as unjust financial chains imposed by the former regime as the flow of rightful wealth to the faithful begins in earnest.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sat. 10 Jan. 2026 CONFIRMED INTEL: SECURITY, STRUCTURE & SILENCE – THE TIER 4B PROTOCOL IS (ALLEGEDLY) FULLY IGNITED, GLOBAL RESET EXPLODING IN 2026 AS IRAQ, VIETNAM & ZIMBABWE LEAD THE CHARGE AGAINST THE DEEPSTATE FINANCIAL CABAL – RV IS HERE NOW! …Q on Telegram
TIER 4B IS (ALLEGEDLY) LIVE AND OPERATIONAL RIGHT NOW. The silent financial revolution is no longer whispers in the shadows; it’s verified, bank-confirmed action ripping through the old fiat system. Iraq, Vietnam, and Zimbabwe are (ALLEGEDLY) detonating the global reset, with IQD, VND, and ZIM holders stepping into historic wealth transfers that the c***l never wanted you to see.
They laughed at us. They called us delusional. They shut down forums, banned groups, and ridiculed the faithful who held strong. But now? The vindication is massive.
Private U.S. banking channels at Chase, Wells Fargo, and Bank of America have (allegedly) activated secure, appointment-only exchange centers. No walk-ins, no public announcements – just elite-level security protocols, armed staff, device restrictions, NDA signings, and wealth management onboarding for the awakened ones.
This is a classified military-grade operation, monitored and executed with precision to bypass the corrupt central banks and unleash suppressed value straight to the people.
Forget the rigged public Forex screens – inside the hidden ledgers, IQD and VND rates are (allegedly) skyrocketing to levels once labeled “impossible.” ZIM is right there with them, ready to turn everyday patriots into multi-trillionaires overnight.
The Deepstate’s fiat empire is (allegedly) crumbling as gold-backed realities take over. Iraq has gone fully sovereign: sanctions lifted, UN and U.S. forces out, massive anti-corruption sweeps recovering billions in stolen assets – all fuel for the RV explosion.
Their digital modernization aligns perfectly with the new quantum system, declaring independence from Cabal control.
Vietnam is (allegedly) locking in gold-backed Dong strength, shocking the fiat world and proving asset-backed currencies win. Zimbabwe’s project-backed redemption model is reshaping global debt slavery, freeing nations from endless banker chains.
This isn’t just a currency flip – it’s the financial detonation that dismantles the economic stranglehold. The old guard is terrified because the power is shifting to us – the holders who trusted the plan when everyone else folded.
Phased rollout is(allegedly) in full motion as of January 2026: 72-hour soft launch complete, high-volume patriots already exchanging in the first 7-10 days, mid-tier flooding in over the next weeks, and broader access ramping up fast.
Get your currency receipts, IDs, and proofs ready now. Appointments require absolute discretion – stay silent, ignore the fakes, and shut out the noise from paid shills trying to derail this.
Scammers are swarming because they know it’s real – legitimate Tier 4B access never asks for upfront payments. Only secure, verified channels. This is your moment to claim what’s been stolen from generations. The window is wide open, but the cabal will try everything to slam it shut.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sat. 10 Jan. 2026 TIER 4B IS ACTIVE. THE RV IS REAL. THE GLOBAL RESET IS UNSTOPPABLE.
We are the storm they’ve feared. The era of waiting is dead – the era of patriots rising in wealth and power begins NOW.
Stay vigilant. Stay ready. The deepstate is finished. This is our financial liberation – and it’s happening right under their noses.
TRUST THE PLAN. THE BEST IS YET TO COME FOR THE AWAKENED!

Mnt Goat Article: "AN ECONOMIC ASSESSMENT OF THE CENTRAL BANK’S DECISION TO FIX THE DOLLAR EXCHANGE RATE IN THE 2026 BUDGET" So for the first time I have been in this investment the CBI has told us they fixed the budget to an exchange rate. It has been normal practice for the Finance Committee to fix the budget to the market price of oil or a little less for market variations in future. Why is this very good news for us today? Let me explain... [Post 1 of 2....stay tuned]
Mnt Goat This shows us the country is slowly moving away from oil as the sole source of revenue and now even the budget is no longer evolving around oil. WOW! They are moving to general terms of overall economic stability which means all revenue, including revenues from non-oil sources. WOW! They are truly moving away from the sanctioned rules of everything evolving around oil. WOW! [Post 2 of 2]
Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] OMAR: TV guy talking about former CBI governor Dr. Shabibi, he said the dinar would go down incrementally before any major revaluation...It is entirely possible the Central Bank of Iraq will reduce the dinar's exchange rate incrementally before they carry out a full revaluation. They have done it before, like in early 2023 when they nudged the rate down a little bit...It's a way to keep everything stable and avoid sudden changes in the economy. Yes, incremental reductions are on the table before any big revaluation happens... FRANK: They self-confessed there's a revaluation coming to your currency. I understand they're trying to tell you they're going to do it slowly but surely. But that's a bunch of "whatever".

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
Mod: GOOD MORNING AND HAPPY SATURDAY EVERYONE! CBD GURUS MATT AND LUCAS KICK OFF THE FIRST 45 MINS AND THEN MARK GIVES THE NEWS UPDATE
Member: Good morning Mark, Mod team, fellow RVers, and CBD gurus. hope everyone is having a blessed weekend
MZ: It will be a little fun this morning for the news. I have things from bond contacts…..I cannot share everything because I have agreed not to. This is for the personal safety of their funds.
MZ: I have a number of bond contacts telling me that there are a lot more bond related Historical artifacts or boxes of very historic stuff came to the market….three different buyers and a mad scramble
MZ: I have one contact tell me that absolutely some fellow bond holders have been paid. But he won’t give me details. I will be trying to find confirmations but they do expect something big to happen this coming week in the revaluation process.
MZ: A number of bond contacts are eying this upcoming week for great movement. Does this mean we may know the date ? I do not know but expect a substantial amount of news between now and Monday based on the overwhelming amount of messages I got last night
MZ: Group rumors are about the same as bond rumors about this coming week. Most seem to be focused on Tuesday as getting some positive news. But I have had a couple folks in groups say that timing wise …things are starting to process…..we will see.
MZ: Stay calm as there are a lot of indicators right now pointing at the same time.
MZ: We have Iraqi Parliament going back to work tomorrow and I think Monday is going to be a big news day for a change. I am pretty excited about this one.
MZ: Dominating the news in Iraq is non-oil revenues. And possibly reducing the Customs rates or possibly postponing and going in with levels . this is the same law passed years ago and finally implementing …..of course people are screaming about it.
MZ: They have been asking Sudani to sit in and preside on these meetings. I think they have figured out things will not work without Sudani right now. There is a number of sensitive subjects for tomorrow in Iraq which means that Monday should be a big news day for them as well.
MZ: Rumors from Iran is that overnight Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was moved into a bunker and that the Iranian guard has been routed and removed from the streets. Possibly their chain of command is imploding. If any of this is accurate we may be seeing the end of the Iranian regime from 1979. If so this is very historic.
MZ: If true they wont have to worry about Iranian influence in Iraq any more and will be free to pull the trigger.
MZ: There was a little bit of a leak at Goldman Sacs. They believe silver could go to $412. They quate the reason which is about a 8.7 billion oz. short.
MZ: The news is really coming loose…..now we have to see what is real. I think Monday morning will have far better than normal news. I am expecting some fun stuff early in the week to tell us where we are headed.
MZ: My banking contacts that did not work this weekend gave me an update ….They were told to (what it appears) “enjoy your last weekend off for a few months” I am excited about this news. But stay grounded as we find out what is real and what is not.
Member: Mark... WF Bank in Kansas posted on market "Currency exchanges after Jan 10 will be appointment only"
MZ: Wow…we have had some interesting bank stories as of late …many informed they will see this soon but don’t know the exact timing…..sent to me by you guys.
MZ: This is going to be a crazy week…..buckle up…we may have run out of rope and done kicking that can.
Member: Have a very blessed weekend everyone and see you all Monday morning for coffee and am so looking forward to it. I love and appreciate you all.
Member: Really hope this is our last weekend broke.
