Member: Good morning Mark. Mods and all fellow Dinarians from around the Cosmos!!!
Member: My initials are RV. I’m having a strange sensation that I need to be released!!!
Member: Is February still the goal to release the RV?
MZ: I still think February or early March is still the goal. I still feel very good about it.
Member: Why the heck is it so quiet everywhere????
Member: Many Intel providers have been told to zip it.
MZ: I wonder who told them to zip it? Is this coming from a source that knows anything…or from a source who does not want to answer anything?
MZ: (From Wednesday) On the bond side its dead quiet. On the banking side….my contacts in Wealth Management have gone very quiet. When you ask them anything on timing or what they have been told they go dead silent. Maybe they are getting que’d up and possibly getting some details. But nobody wants to lose their chance at the trough. This is just a guess
MZ: (From Thursday) Quiet on the bond front. I am trying to find out what is going on. Was the possible exchange from a person that was offered $59,600 for a million dong still happening? Is the meeting still on? Is it not on? I am still trying to find out some details. The meeting was supposed to occur tomorrow.
MZ: In Iraq: (From Wednesday) “Trumps Envoy held secret meetings with parties affiliated with Iraqi factions mediated by the government to disarm” So Mark Sayova is there and they have been working quietly behind the scenes for weeks to get things done. They are still removing that Iranian influence.
MZ: (From Thursday ) “Sudani coalition threatens Constitutional escalation” This is a push to get the government sat and to get things done. The pressure is on to get the President and Prime Minister done by early next week. It is looking like it will be Sudani.
Member: the rumor is that the parliament has to be seated before Iraq revalues?
Member: The world is in chaos, people need help, it’s time to RV. Iraq has become irrelevant in this process. Just leave them behind
Member: Frank 26 had a bank story for a guy in Canada that says their bank only was interested in IQD not VND….
MZ: That makes sense for the “Oil for Dinar” program for coalition forces on the dinar…..IMO the VND will be just a simple exchange at the new rate…..so this makes sense to me. IMO they will still handle the VND….just no special hoops to jump through.
Member: Will 1-800 # be in a separate email from dinar recaps or within their daily email ?
Member: I believe they said it would be posted on their website for all to see…..and possibly be emailed in their usual daily emails to members. But all intel people will be posting it….you will not miss it.
Member: I hope everyone is have a great and blessed week. Thank you again for everything you do for us Mark

Clare: The Central Bank of Iraq launches a new initiative to expand the capacity of private banks to support international trade.
2/26/2026
The Central Bank of Iraq announced on Thursday the launch of a new initiative to expand the ability of private banks to support international trade by allowing them to resume cross-border transactions and issue letters of credit in several foreign currencies.
In a statement today, the bank indicated that it had completed the main step in the comprehensive reform process for commercial and Islamic banks and branches of foreign banks by submitting the documents required for review in accordance with the "minimum requirements," which were summarized as choosing one of three paths: "continuing in the market as independent banking institutions, merging with other banking institutions, or exiting the market."

The statement affirmed that “all Iraqi banks have submitted the required documents according to the path they chose, allowing the Central Bank to assess their level of compliance with the minimum requirements,” noting that “during the coming months, the banks will work to address any identified gaps and will strive to achieve full compliance with the reform standards.”
The Central Bank of Iraq also announced in its statement the launch of "a new initiative to expand the ability of private banks to support international trade for their clients, whereby banks that meet specific criteria according to the assessment of the Central Bank of Iraq will be allowed to resume cross-border transactions and issue letters of credit in several international currencies, including the Euro, the UAE Dirham, the Chinese Yuan, the Jordanian Dinar, and others," explaining that "this step comes as a continuation of the path drawn by the Central Bank of Iraq to enhance confidence in the future of the Iraqi economy and the global interconnectedness of the financial sector, and to lead sustainable growth for Iraq."

Clare: Yazan Mishaan al-Jubouri was arrested on charges of impersonation and embezzling 41 billion dinars.
2/26/2025
Iraqi politician Mishaan al-Jubouri announced early Thursday morning that his son, Yazan Mishaan al-Jubouri, had been arrested by a special security force that raided his home and taken him to an undisclosed location.
Al-Jubouri indicated in a tweet on the “X” platform that the operation was carried out based on an arrest warrant issued by the judge of the Karkh Investigation Court.
In addition, an official document issued by the Supreme Judicial Council/Presidency of the Baghdad Al-Karkh Court of Appeal/Central Anti-Corruption Criminal Court, dated 2/25/2026, showed the issuance of an arrest and search warrant against Yazan Mishaan Rakan Damin Al-Jubouri.
According to the document, the type of charge against him is “impersonating a civil service position” and entering into public service work “without permission or a capacity that authorizes him to do so in order to achieve material benefits,” and taking a sum of money amounting to 41 billion dinars, in accordance with the provisions of Resolution 160 of 1983 as amended.
The order stipulated that he be brought in as a detainee to take legal action against him, as he is accused in the complaint filed before the Central Anti-Corruption Crimes Investigation Judge. LINK

Jeff Everything is up in the air. They're working towards revaluing the currency. They're working towards everything. The rate is very close to revaluing. There's just a small little delay in the mix.
Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY: Our Television showing the Iraqi citizens how to go from cash to digitization. They're calling it a quantitative step towards financial transparency. FRANK: That's big because...you got to bring in your foreign currency and become digitalized because that's how they're going to give you the new rate, the new lower notes...Your CBI is doing a final sweep of the American dollar in your country as they prepare to introduce the lower notes and the new rate...
Militia Man For those who have followed currency reforms you might remember this. Iraq's current phase mirrors Turkmenistan's transition back in 2009. Turkmenistan first reduced cash circulation...enforced official rates and built reserves. All those are things Iraq has done, reduced cash - Zane Cash, key card, electronic payments through the state - reduction. They enforced the official 1300 rates for three years...Three years of stacking reserves - gold, non-oil revenues, low inflation and note reduction...If all of this holds true, the data strongly suggests it does, the logical next step is a managed REER adjustment when the CBI deems prudent.

The Accelerating Collapse of the Petrodollar in 2026: Mechanics, Triggers, Iran/Iraq Nexus, and the Endgame for Dollar Hegemony
The petrodollar isn’t dying quietly in its sleep it’s being gutted alive, entrails spilling across the board as we speak. This isn’t some gentle “evolution” peddled by think-tank suits; it’s a structural hemorrhage that began decades ago and hit arterial spray in 2024-2025.

Things Are Coming Down To The Wire: The Birth Of A New Power (Removing The Access) You Are In Prime Position
The Accelerating Collapse of the Petrodollar in 2026: Mechanics, Triggers, Iran/Iraq Nexus, and the Endgame for Dollar Hegemony
The petrodollar isn’t dying quietly in its sleep it’s being gutted alive, entrails spilling across the board as we speak. This isn’t some gentle “evolution” peddled by think-tank suits; it’s a structural hemorrhage that began decades ago and hit arterial spray in 2024-2025.
The core mechanism: oil priced and settled exclusively in USD created artificial, perpetual demand for dollars every barrel bought forced nations to hoard greenbacks, recycle surpluses into U.S. Treasuries, and keep the American debt machine lubricated. That monopoly is fracturing at warp speed in 2026.
Non-dollar oil trades jumped from near-zero to 20%+ globally by late 2025, BRICS pipelines are pumping yuan/ruble/rupee settlements at scale, and the old 1974 Saudi recycling pact (informal but ironclad) has effectively lapsed without renewal pressure.
Venezuela’s seizure in January 2026 wasn’t humanitarian theater it was a desperate U.S. lunge to claw back pricing power and force a “Petrodollar 2.0” revival. But the math doesn’t lie: once Iran falls and Iraq breathes free, the system hemorrhages irreversibly.
Iraq is the kill shot. CBI Governor Ali al-Alaq publicly denies any imminent exchange-rate shift or massive RV (as of February 2026), but the undercurrents scream otherwise: aggressive de-dollarization via POS rollout, electronic platforms to choke dollar smuggling, SWIFT integration for transparency, and gold reserve buildup positioning Iraq as a regional heavyweight.
The “delete three zeros” redenomination project remains live structural prep for a stronger dinar once stability hits.
Trump’s Venezuela grab (seizing Maduro, eyeing PDVSA reserves) was the dress rehearsal: force a compliant regime, flood markets with dollar-priced barrels to buy time, but the real prize is Baghdad.
Post-Iran strikes, Iraq stabilizes, Development Road ($17B corridor) links to BRICS trade arteries, and digital dinar launches on XRPL-style rails backed by oil/gold. Dollar oil trades in the region crater.
BRICS expands the playbook: Russia-China 99% non-dollar bilateral, India rupee-Russian oil, Brazil-China yuan-real pacts all scaling in 2026.
The petrodollar’s recycling loop (oil dollars → Treasuries → U.S. deficit funding) snaps when 30-40% of global energy settles outside USD.
Endgame in 2026 is multipolar monetary carnage. No single BRICS currency dethrones the dollar overnight it’s death by a thousand cuts: tokenized payments, commodity-backed digital units, regional blocs settling in local currencies.
Oil glut forecasts for 2026 (Venezuela barrels flooding back under U.S. control) might temporarily prop prices, but the structural shift is irreversible. Dollar share in reserves already at multi-decade lows (~58%), forex transactions slipping, petroyuan creeping in.
The U.S. either adapts (proactive pivot to digital dollar dominance, alliances with BRICS outliers) or reacts defensively (more interventions, tariffs, weaponized finance) but the empire’s monetary backbone is cracked.
Iran removal + Iraq freedom = petrodollar funeral pyre. The deepstate knows it.

You All Need To Understand The Implications Of What Has Occurred
Now that the tariffs are now ironclad and more robust than ever. You will see countries in a hurry to adjust their currencies going forward. Because this has opened the door for them to trade fairly without the USD being to high in artificial value.

Watcher.Guru: JUST IN: President Trump says Supreme Court "accidentally and unwittingly" gave him more power after tariffs ruling.
Something Donald Trump has repeatedly stated is the reason countries like Iraq can not export to the US at equal parity.
This is where you come in as a Iraqi Dinar investor.
Because once silver gets a floor price banks will be scrambling to readjust their books to acquire liquidity they no longer can just markup on spreadsheets with nothing in the vaults to support it.
The Iran situation will basically speed everything up in earnest within days.
Kalshi: JUST IN: Gold overtakes US dollar as "largest" global reserve asset
Do You Know The Implications Of This?
This is equivalent to the 2nd coming of Christ. Funny enough gold is none the less considered God’s currency.
I wonder what those ole’ folks are thinking right now who said America will never go back on the gold standard?

Dr. Scott Young: Banking Crisis of 2026
2-23-2026
In a recent, in-depth video analysis, Dr. Scott Young sheds light on the anticipated banking crisis of 2026, providing a comprehensive overview of its far-reaching economic and geopolitical implications.
Dr. Young also introduces his latest book, “Tribulation,” which delves deeper into these critical themes. At the heart of his discussion is the looming currency reset and systemic banking collapse, primarily triggered by unsustainable levels of national and commercial debt.
Dr. Young’s analysis underscores a significant shift in the traditional monetary system, which has long been dominated by the Federal Reserve and the US dollar.
He posits that a fundamental transformation is on the horizon, driven by a deliberate policy decision to cut interest rates despite the presence of inflation. This move, aimed at devaluing the dollar, is intended to manage and inflate away the substantial debt load that the nation is grappling with.
To contextualize this impending crisis, Dr. Young revisits historical financial crises, including the Dot-com bust, the 2008 Great Recession, and the economic shocks triggered by the 2020 pandemic.
His review highlights how interventions by the government and the Federal Reserve have consistently expanded national debt and manipulated monetary policy.
Notably, he points out the pattern of injecting trillions of dollars into the system at critical junctures, often in anticipation of financial shocks, suggesting a deliberate strategy of economic manipulation.
While cautioning against fraudulent crypto schemes such as QFS crypto, Dr. Young acknowledges the legitimacy of certain cryptocurrencies. This nuanced view underscores the complexity of the evolving financial landscape.
The most striking aspect of Dr. Young’s analysis is his prediction of a comprehensive overhaul of the current financial system.
He foresees the dismantling of the Federal Reserve, with the debt burden being forcibly transferred to the banking sector and financial elites.
Moreover, he anticipates the introduction of a new, gold-backed currency for the American people.
According to Dr. Young, this transition will be backed by military intervention, leveraging Executive Order 13818. This executive order targets corrupt actors by confiscating their assets and redistributing power to the people.
Dr. Young presents this impending transformation as a victory for the general public over entrenched financial and political corruption.
He suggests that this sweeping change, facilitated by an unprecedented governmental and military intervention, will recalibrate the balance of power in favor of the people.
For those seeking a deeper understanding of these predictions and the reasoning behind them, Dr. Young’s full video analysis offers valuable insights.
As the world stands on the precipice of potentially seismic financial shifts, staying informed and understanding the broader implications of these changes is crucial.

MZ: I don’t know if we will see it this week but, we have seen a lot of interesting things happening already.
MZ: Eerily quit on the bond side though. I am surprised. I was expecting fireworks…but, may be I was premature.
MZ: No updates yet on the QFS and the rumors it was going live today. I was really hoping to hear something positive on that front. They are claiming this is the week we will see it.
Member: I thought the QFS was supposed to already be running parallel to the SWIFT system,,,,ready to take over????

Mod. Be careful ….There are a lot of QFS scammers out there. You cannot sign up for one now
MZ: There is no such thing as a QFS account now. Don’t fall for it. The scams are unreal right now.
Member: There is no such thing as a qfs account. The qfs is the operating system, run in the background of financial systems, replaces the old slow swift system
Member: Clarity act, should hit the desk by March 1
Member: Iraq is avoiding putting their government together
Member: They said they would have the Makiki thing over with last night….guess its not true
Member: When has Iraq ever done what they said they would?????
Member: They have to seat the President before they seat the Prime Minister. They are claiming they are pushing for a resolution in Iraq. I think they will soon remove Malikis candidacy. And Sudani is by far the most popular candidate with the Iraq people.
Member: Iran is moving to extend its railway connection with Iraq and transform it into an international corridor.
Member: I am less interested in IQD than i am Venezuela now ....with American control on their economy i believe in a VES revaluation to kick things off
Member: President Trump does the State of the union speech tonight
Member: IMO Tonight would be a great smoke screen for any event to take place.

Liên Chiểu container port to ignite Đà Nẵng's 'growth era’
February 23, 2026 - 09:05 Compiled by Công Thành
The 22-berth port, designed to serve as the main logistics centre for the north-south railway and road systems and the East-West Economic Corridor 2 (EWEC2) linking Thailand, Myanmar, Laos and Việt Nam via Đà Nẵng’s port system, will be developed as an international gateway port.

Liên Chiểu container port to ignite Đà Nẵng's 'growth era’
February 23, 2026 - 09:05 Compiled by Công Thành
The 22-berth port, designed to serve as the main logistics centre for the north-south railway and road systems and the East-West Economic Corridor 2 (EWEC2) linking Thailand, Myanmar, Laos and Việt Nam via Đà Nẵng’s port system, will be developed as an international gateway port.
ĐÀ NẴNG — The development of Liên Chiểu Port and its shared infrastructure is expected to deliver major economic benefits and become a powerful driver for Đà Nẵng’s sustainable growth, positioning the city as an international gateway port in central Việt Nam and integrating it more deeply into global maritime transport chains in the decades ahead.
Lê Thành Hưng, head of Đà Nẵng’s management unit for priority infrastructure projects, highlighted the strategic importance of the Liên Chiểu deep-sea port after a series of key works for the port’s infrastructure project were completed by the end of December 2025. These included a 1.17km breakwater dyke system and the dredging of a 7.3km shipping channel, paving the way for preparatory works ahead of the construction of the first two container berths, scheduled to begin in the first quarter of 2026.
“The construction of Liên Chiểu deep-sea port will be one of the key pillars in the city’s master plan to 2030, with a vision to 2045, when Đà Nẵng’s socio-economic development will be based on three main pillars: tourism, high-tech industries and the sea-based economy. The port has been designed on an area of 450ha, including water space, with a total handling capacity of 50 million tonnes of cargo per year,” Hưng said.
“Liên Chiểu Port will serve as the main logistics centre for the north-south railway and road systems, and as an international gateway for the central coastal region. The port will become an international gateway and a logistics hub for Việt Nam, ASEAN and the Asia-Pacific region, as well as a key entry point to the East Sea from the sub-Mekong region.”
“It will be capable of accommodating vessels of up to 100,000 DWT, with a system of berths for container ships, bulk cargo, liquid and gas carriers, barges and public port authorities, while also ensuring defence and security services,” he added.
The first phase of construction will include two to four berths and piers, providing services with a capacity of between 7.5 million and 11.9 million tonnes of cargo to meet international transhipment demand by 2030.
The port has been designed with 22 berths, including eight container berths with a capacity of 18,000 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs). Construction of the first two berths will focus on international container shipping services, reflecting Liên Chiểu’s role as a major commercial port in the region and one of the key gateways to the East Sea from the sub-Mekong region.
He revealed that two investor groups had submitted bids. One is a partnership between local Hateco Group and the Netherlands’ APM Terminals B.V., while the other brings together Việt Nam Maritime Corporation and Terminal Investment Limited Holding of Luxembourg. Their bidding documents were submitted at the tender closing and opening on December 24.
“We are working with consultancy firms and relevant agencies to review the bidding documents of the two consortiums for approval by the city’s authorities in January, and a ground-breaking ceremony for the construction of the first container berths is expected to take place in the first quarter of 2026,” he said.
“It is expected that the first two container berths will be put into operation in the fourth quarter of 2028, while two more berths will start construction from the first quarter of 2029 to the fourth quarter of 2032, with operations planned from the first quarter of 2033,” he said.
He added that the final three berths would be built between 2033 and 2035 for use in 2036.
“The early operation of the Liên Chiểu container port would help Đà Nẵng City improve cargo clearance capacity, reduce logistics costs and attract import-export demand from the city and the central region," he said.
“Liên Chiểu container port would also help lure investment into industrial parks, the planned Free Trade Zone, international logistics centres and port services.”
Liên Chiểu Port is regarded as one of the most important projects in the Master Plan, linked to the newly established Free Trade Zone. It will be built on a total area of 450ha with an investment of VNĐ3.4 trillion (US$130 million).
The 22-berth port, designed to serve as the main logistics centre for the north-south railway and road systems and the East-West Economic Corridor 2 (EWEC2) linking Thailand, Myanmar, Laos and Việt Nam via Đà Nẵng’s port system, will be developed as an international gateway port, the third in Việt Nam after Lạch Huyện Port in Hải Phòng City and Cái Mép-Thị Vải. — VNS

Infrastructure development for digital, green transformation promoted
February 23, 2026 - 10:03
The Ministry of Construction has officially put into operation the national database on construction activities along with key digital systems and platforms of the sector, giving concrete form to the Party’s and the State’s policies on accelerating the development of science and technology, innovation and national digital transformation.
HÀ NỘI — Developing infrastructure, particularly serving digital and green transformation, is one of the Ministry of Construction's key tasks in 2026, aiming to enhance the effectiveness of state management in the construction sector.
This transformation provides a foundation for connecting and sharing data with ministries, sectors and localities, promoting the development of digital government, the digital economy and smart cities.
Recently, the Ministry of Construction officially put into operation the national database on construction activities along with key digital systems and platforms of the sector, giving concrete form to the Party’s and the State’s policies on accelerating the development of science and technology, innovation and national digital transformation.
These policies include the Politburo's Resolution 57 on breakthroughs in science and technology development, innovation and national digital transformation; the Government's Resolution 71 on amending, supplementing, and updating the Government’s action programmes implementing Resolution 57; and directives from the central steering committee on science and technology development, innovation, and digital transformation.
Nguyễn Việt Hùng, Deputy Minister of Construction said: “The establishment of the national database on construction activities marks an important shift in management, and builds a unified data foundation, creating effective supports in direction and administration, while providing official and transparent information to citizens and businesses.”
According to Lê Thanh Tùng, director of the Information Technology Centre under the Ministry of Construction, the national database on construction activities is integrated with specialised databases of many fields, including infrastructures of railway, road and aviation, professional ability in construction sector, seagoing vessels and seafarers in the maritime sector, vehicle inspection, urban clean water supply and drainage, housing and the real estate market, and urban development.
The synchronised operation of these databases and information systems has formed a unified, consistent and interconnected digital data infrastructure from the central to local levels.
This is a foundation for modern, transparent, and data-driven management, improving the efficiency of administrative procedures and reducing time and costs for citizens and businesses.
These databases and information systems also help strengthen supervision, monitoring and evaluation of the quality of public services provided by state agencies, while supporting leaders in forecasting and policymaking in construction, urban development and technical infrastructure.
They provide a basis for data connectivity and sharing with ministries, sectors and localities, promoting digital government, the digital economy and smart cities.
Đông Minh Tiến, a representative of Đông Tiến Transport Enterprise in Nghệ An Province, noted that sharing digitised and stored database among citizens and businesses would eliminate repeated submissions, making administrative transactions among agencies, organisations and enterprises more convenient and time-saving.
At the conference reviewing the Ministry of Construction’s performance in 2025 and outlining tasks for 2026, Prime Minister Phạm Minh Chính emphasised that one of the construction sector’s breakthroughs would be the development of science and technology, innovation, digital transformation, green transformation and the circular economy with a focus on green transport and smart urban development.
The PM said that 2026 would be a year of special significance as it is the first year of implementing the resolution of the 14th National Party Congress and the socio-economic development plan for the 2026–2030 period.
One of the three strategic breakthroughs is the development of synchronised and modern infrastructure, especially multimodal transport infrastructure, technology infrastructure, infrastructure serving digital transformation, green transformation and energy transition to achieve double-digit growth.
In 2026, the Ministry of Construction aims to implement a project to establish an innovation centre to carry out tasks in the new phase associated with digital transformation.
In addition, the ministry will implement the project on developing a national key laboratory system for railways (high-speed rail and urban railways) and smart infrastructure to serve research, transfer and mastery of technologies for deploying key national railway projects.
According to statistics from the Government’s monitoring system, the Ministry of Construction completed its assigned tasks in 2025 relating to building e-government and digital transformation, with a satisfaction rate of 93.3 per cent from citizens and businesses using public services provided by the ministry. — VNS

Militia Man There's a lot of misconceptions out there. Not a lot but some. One of the things is that the Central Bank of Iraq is absolute in this regard. Under Iraq Central Bank Law #56 o 2004 Article 2 the CBI has bull operational independence in monetary policy...Decisions on exchange rate regime, digital dinar roll out, reserves management, parallel market controls or a future managed REER adjustment are not subject to political, religious or seasonal calendars, including Ramadan.
Jeff Historically Iraq [dinar] has always been above Kuwait [dinar] value...Today the value of the Kuwaiti dinar against the US dollar is $3.26...Historically Iraq was always a higher currency value than Kuwait...Undo what was done to lower the value of Iraq's currency...OFAC sanctions, take the sanctions off, the currency value reinstates back to $3.22, put some inflation on that over 22 years, probably somewhere in the the high $3 range, just shy of $4.
Mnt Goat Hang on to your seats because the next couple weeks are going to be explosive, but right now we are in waiting mode until these Iranian issues are resolved...The Iraqi speaker of parliament has put all sessions on hold...until these issues are settled...my CBI contact... assures me that unless the Iranian influence in Iraq is addressed, along with tensions from Tehran, there will not be a reinstatement. The US will not sign off and will hold it up...Many of us may look at what is happening in Iraq as gloom and doom with this Iranian issues...Let’s keep looking at the glass as half full and not empty....things in Iraq are known to change suddenly and pivot...
Texas Becomes First State With Sovereign Bullion Supply Chain
Lynette Zang: 2-23-2026
Texas just made history. It’s now the first U.S. state with a full sovereign bullion supply chain — manufacturing, distributing, and vaulting state-branded gold and silver through the Texas Bullion Depository.
Citizens can now buy gold and silver directly from a state-run system!

Trust The Plan
God Wins!
Judy Note: On Tues. 24 Feb. 2026 President Trump will give his State of the Union Address to the nation. A president normally gives the address before Congress, but Congress has closed down because they didn’t approve a funding budget.
With Mon. 23 Feb. 2026’s (allegedly) activation of the Gold/asset-backed Global Currency Reset (GCR) and Global Quantum Financial System (QFS), banks across the World not Basil III compliant were being forced to close. They could (allegedly) no longer print fiat money, nor could they even function.
The new QFS system was engineered to run independently from legacy banking structures powered by physical gold reserves recorded in real-time.
What this meant across the Globe for the common person was there would be no more endless debt, no more banks controlling your life. Your bank account balance was already mirrored onto the new system. Though, would not be accessible to you until you(allegedly) personally set up your new wallet at an official Redemption Center that has already been located near you.
Redemption Centers were scheduled to be open to the general public around mid March. It was strongly advised to have cash on hand during this transition period of fiat currency to gold/asset-backed. Withdraw what you can from your bank NOW. There will be a period of ten days when banks will (allegedly) be closed and ATMs not working.
Prepare for the Global Currency Reset, the full-scale activation of the gold/asset-backed Quantum Financial System.
As of Sun. 22 Feb. 2026 4am EST Gold and asset-backed currencies (allegedly) went active in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Germany and Australia.
On Mon. 23 February 2026, the Quantum Financial System (QFS) will(allegedly) officially transition into full operational control over all 209 nations.
On Wed. 25 February 2026, a 48-hour blackout for GCR/GESARA wealth redistribution was scheduled to begin. (In other words, those worldwide holding foreign currencies and Zim Bonds could schedule exchange/redemption appointments at their local official redemption center).
On Fri. 6 March 2026, the first wave of wealth redistribution will (allegedly) go live.
On Mon. 16 March 2026, President Trump will (allegedly) host a monumental Independence Day–style global celebration symbolizing the rebirth of a free republic under GESARA law. The event will merge with worldwide QFS announcements and unveilings of new sovereign infrastructures.
Military sources confirm that QFS Accounts were (allegedly) in full sync. Prosperity Packages primed for Tier4b Humanitarians.
Tier4b (Us, the Internet Group) Redemption Centers were on standby. IQD, VND and Zim rates aligning rapidly.

Sun. 22 Feb. 2026 Now The Currency Revaluation Is Official We Are In The Money People. …Nesara/Gesara Activate on Telegram
With IEEPA’s non-tariff powers “FULLY CONFIRMED” and no doubt remaining, Trump can now (allegedly) impose targeted restrictions on Iranian proxies disrupting Iraq’s economy without legal overhang.
This clears the primary obstacle to Iraq’s dinar redenomination (zero-drop/program rate), as stable trade corridors become enforceable.
Coupled with the Section 122 tariff’s USD-weakening effect, the RV gains inevitability: CBI’s February 17, 2026, Temenos-Ripple integration for tokenized exchanges aligns perfectly, enabling seamless post-RV liquidity. 1:1 Parity Is Coming.

Militia Man Things are taking place showing Iraq's integration into the financial system...We can see all those things taking place...
Guru Jeff You've got to retrace your steps in this. What brought the value of the dinar down in 2003? It's called US sanctions. Right now the only remaining sanctions on Iraq are the US Treasury OFAC sanctions. So, if sanctions automatically brought the value of the the dinar down, what happens when you take sanctions off? ...Wouldn't that suggest it maybe reinstates, putting it back in the $3+ range? ...You take the US OFAC sanctions off, it puts it back to $3.22...
Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY: On the television it is showing the CBI is sending to all the banks inside Iraq and financial institutions a memo that says, 'Do not discriminate against any older or new denominations of the American US dollar when they are exchanging dinar.' FRANK: IMO I think it's just a preparation to tell the citizens of Iraq we've got a new rate coming and when you get it you got to bring in those 3 zero notes... those American dollars you're still using...and any other foreign currency... Because when it happens... you are going to pour into the banks... The moment this happens it's going to be insanity, it's going to be an amazing influx of people that are all over our banks. They want the lower notes...This is very good news.

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: Good Morning…..last of February…..clock is ticking
Member: GM Mark and friends.... new week ... new hope
Member: MarkZ is really scaling us back on podcasts, maybe it’s almost time!
Member: Is today the day? I still have great hope for February…how about you Mark?
MZ: I also still have great hope for February…..there are sure a a lot of rumors running around.
Member: Friday you described yourself as bubbly and excited ....the movement of certain people has your undivided attention...so what are we waiting for now?
Member: Sure are lots of crazy rumors over the weekend..
Member: The Confusion Is Intentional & 'Could' Mean We Are Close, Very Close ...
MZ: The rumors are running crazy and obscene….They are up, down and conflicting. It is difficult to figure out what is real and what is not. We are getting different stories from different groups. To me there is a extreme level of disinformation going on.
MZ: I have a couple of bond sources that very much believe that the QFS opens completely tomorrow and we get announcements…..sounds great….right? I hope they are right.
MZ: To me its very interesting that from some of the same groups…. on the bond side some claim some have been paid….and when I reach out to some of the key people they tell me they have not been paid…so we are getting conflicting information.
MZ: What I am also hearing from some bigger bond and currency groups attached to sovereigns (Tier 3) that they have great expectations for this week.
MZ: It is only Monday morning and getting this much information and rumors is highly unusual. Stay calm…getting this many rumors at once makes vetting difficult…..so stay calm. Its odd that so many groups were told QFS releases tomorrow…and other groups were told when the QFS is live – that when they get to go…..and QFS is expected to go tomorrow…..guess we will see…..just stay calm
Member: There was so much that was prerequisite to the RV. Drip, drip, drip, flood! You are seeing it. It's all good!
Member: I wonder- does the QFS and the asset backed $ have to be announce publicly together before the RV?
MZ: I still think it will go about the same time
Member: Maliki back out this morning saying he absolutely will NOT withdraw!
Member: WHY?? Did Sudani not revalue the IDQ before the election???
MZ: “ After Tom Barack’s visit to Baghdad- did Al Sudani get the green light for a second term?” The US is definitely pushing. Evven Suadi Arabia is pushing and sent a message against Maliki’s return and is pushing for a return of Al-Sudani.
MZ: There is a lot happening this morning in Iraqi politics. We may see the end of Maliki’s political career this week….at least for now.
Member: If HCL is approved this week…will the RV immediately or wait a couple weeks or months?
MZ: I would say just days after the HCL is approved.
Member: US forces begin the largest withdrawal from northern Syria towards Iraqi Kurdistan
MZ: They are moving out- at least 100 trucks,….accompanied by air support. Some very interesting movements. Are we re-positioning these troops because of Iran? Or do we not care about Syria anymore? I think there is something deeper in these troop movements that happened all of a sudden.
Member: Mark- Friend of a friend stationed in Iraq says they are on the move and will be out of contact for 2 months
MZ: In Iraq “Central bank warns of fraud in various bank notes “ This is very interesting. They are claiming almost all the bolivar there ..they are getting inundated by bills that don’t even exist. Iraq is getting an influx of fake Venezuelan bills being sold to Iraqis.
MZ: A person on the ground in Venezuela says they had a conversation with a friend of his wife. He has high knowledge what is happening there in banking in general. He claims starting in Mrch there will only be 2 types of money in Venezuela and that they are transitioning their money. They will use US money and the new Venezuelan money….and they will be worth 1 to 1. So that is the new bolivar….nobody panic …we are watching and trying to find answers on the bolivar a lot of hold right now.
MZ: They may be handling this like Kuwait and Iraq did it. They got rid of their old currency and the new rate applies to the new currency. Kuwait did that. Iraq did that with the old Sadaam Hussein bills. Now the important part for us….if they do this…how do we exchange the old venezulan currency for the new Venezuelan dollars? There are a lot of rumors. I will let yu know what we find out when I know…..we are chasing it.
MZ: It is possible we will have to change our old bolivar for the new Venezuelan dollar…..and then exchange it for USD or whatever your national currency is at the reset.
Member; Will we have to go to Venezuelan to exchange or can we do it here in the US?
MZ: No part of me thinks any of us will have to go to Venezuela to exchange. Its possible we will be able to exchange the old bolivar for SKR’s (safe keeping receipts) or deposit it digitally . Like in a multi currency account. That would not surprise me.
Member: I believe President Trump has a State of the union speech tomorrow night.
Member: President Trump says Supreme Court "accidentally and unwittingly" gave him more power after tariffs ruling. It's all very good!
Member: “Tarriff 232” might be “Plan B” that switches the value of our currency. Bessent mentioned this .
MZ: it very much could be.
Member: Alien disclosures, cartel wars, Iran strike, Epstein files. Other than that should be a pretty slow week in the news lol
Member: Fingers crossed this is our big week……stay safe and warm everyone.
