Clare: Expectations are that the government's candidate will be decided after the framework meeting within days.

3/24/2026

Political analyst Haider al-Barzanji affirmed that the current circumstances present a significant opportunity for Iraq to take a firm stance regarding the formation of a government. Al-Barzanji told Al-Furat News Agency that "the Shiite political forces bear the greatest responsibility in moving towards the formation of a fully empowered government."

He explained that "expectations indicate that this issue will be resolved after the coordination framework meeting scheduled to be held within a few days, which will decide on naming the candidate and actually moving towards forming the government," noting that "there are no multiple options that allow for further waiting."

He added that "there is no connection between what is happening in the region and internal entitlements," stressing that "forming the government will give Iraq additional strength in dealing with important and sensitive issues, as well as strengthening the Iraqi position in economic aspects and dealing with the regional situation."

Clare: Trump touts ‘significant’ Iran ‘present’ linked to Strait of Hormuz as deal talks heat up

Trump says gift arrived Tuesday and was 'very significant,' with negotiations led by Marco Rubio, JD Vance

March 24, 2026

President Donald Trump on Tuesday announced Iran wants to "make a deal" with the U.S., noting the country's leadership gave the U.S. a "significant prize" related to the Strait of Hormuz and the flow of oil.

While speaking to reporters in the White House Oval Office, Trump said Iranian leadership sent the gift on Monday, and it arrived on Tuesday.

"They're going to make a deal. They did something [Monday] that was amazing, actually. They gave us a present," Trump said. "The present arrived today, and it was a very big present worth a tremendous amount of money."

Trump said he could not disclose what the gift was, but said it was "oil and gas-related" and was connected to the Strait of Hormuz.

The Iranian regime was previously charging some tankers millions of dollars to pass through the global shipping choke point, according to a report from Iran International.

Trump added the unspecified present was "very significant."

"That meant one thing to me — we're dealing with the right people," Trump said. "… It was a very nice thing they did. … They said they were going to do it, and it happened. And they're the only ones that could have done it."

When asked about control of the Strait of Hormuz, he said the U.S. will "have control of anything we want."

"They can't have certain things," Trump said. "It starts with no nuclear weapons, and they've agreed to that. … They're not going to have enrichment — any of those things. … We are in about the best bargaining position. We're way ahead of schedule."

Negotiations are being headed by Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Vice President JD Vance, according to the president.

This is a developing story. Please check back for updates.

Here’s What will Happen if the IQD Follows ZiG’s Success

Here’s What will Happen if the IQD Follows ZiG’s Success

Edu Matrix:   3-24-2026

In a remarkable turn of events, Zimbabwe has successfully tamed its notorious hyperinflation and stabilized its economy through the introduction of a new gold-backed currency, the Zimbabwe gold (ZiG).

This bold move has not only restored relative currency stability but also brought inflation down from triple digits to under 5% by early 2026.

Just a few years ago, Zimbabwe’s economy was on the brink of collapse, plagued by runaway inflation and a collapsing currency.

However, with the introduction of the ZiG, the country has made a dramatic recovery.

 The new currency is backed by gold and foreign reserves, which has helped to restore confidence in the monetary system. Tighter monetary policies have also played a crucial role in curbing inflation and stabilizing the economy.

According to Sandy Ingram’s detailed analysis in the Edu Matrix report, the ZiG’s success can be attributed to its robust backing by gold and foreign reserves.

This has helped to anchor the currency and prevent the kind of speculative attacks that can destabilize a currency. The Zimbabwean government’s commitment to monetary discipline has also been instrumental in bringing inflation under control.

Zimbabwe’s experience offers a glimmer of hope for other countries facing economic instability.

 In particular, Sandy Ingram draws parallels with Iraq, suggesting that if Iraq were to adopt a similar approach, it could also stabilize its economy. Introducing a new currency and managing a currency exchange period could be a viable solution for Iraq, which has struggled with economic instability in recent years.

However, Iraq faces additional hurdles, including security concerns and the closed status of the Iraqi dinar (IQD). These challenges will need to be addressed before any meaningful economic reform can take place.

 Nevertheless, the success of Zimbabwe’s economic reforms offers a compelling case study for policymakers in Iraq and other countries facing similar challenges.

For those holding Iraqi dinar, the Zimbabwean experience offers a valuable lesson.

A currency reform could require international travel to exchange old currency, so it’s essential to be prepared. Sandy Ingram advises IQD holders to obtain passports and stay informed about any developments related to currency reform.

 By being proactive, IQD holders can minimize the risk of being left behind in the event of a currency revaluation.

Zimbabwe’s economic turnaround is a testament to the power of strong policy measures and international cooperation. Despite the challenges that lie ahead, the country’s success shows that economic recovery is possible with the right combination of policies and support.

 As Sandy Ingram notes in the Edu Matrix report, Zimbabwe’s experience offers a beacon of hope for countries facing economic instability.

In conclusion, Zimbabwe’s economic miracle is a remarkable story of recovery and resilience. As the country continues to navigate the challenges of economic reform, its experience offers valuable lessons for other countries facing similar challenges.

We encourage readers to watch the full Edu Matrix report on YouTube to gain further insights into Zimbabwe’s economic turnaround and what it means for the future.

Rob Cunningham: XRP Best Case, Bridge Asset Becomes Core Rail Utility

Rob Cunningham: XRP Best Case, Bridge Asset Becomes Core Rail Utility

3-24-2026

Rob Cunningham | KUWL.show   @KuwlShow

XRP BEST CASE – Bridge Asset Becomes Core Rail Utility

What becomes true:

• Clear @CFTC, @SECGov classification as a commodity

• @Ripple expands institutional corridors materially

• Banks / payment providers use XRP for liquidity – #ISO20022

• Tokenized assets require interoperable settlement across ledgers – @Interledger

• Regulatory frameworks favor neutral bridge assets – #Clarity

What it looks like in reality with XRP used in:

• Cross-border settlement
• Treasury flows #RLUSD
• Tokenized asset transfers
• Liquidity pools deepen (not just exchange volume) – #AMM
• Spread compression (cheaper, tighter markets)

Outcome:

• XRP transitions from:
speculative asset → financial infrastructure component.

Price Behavior:

• Sustained repricing
• Lower volatility over time
• Institutional accumulation

Confirmation Signals to Watch:

• Bank-level usage disclosures (not pilot programs) as NDAs end
• Sustained growth in ODL & liquidity corridors
• Integration into regulated financial products
• Central bank, sovereign treasury, FinTech usage

Truth:

As XRP’s use at scale, as designed and opined since its’ June 2, 2012 birth, is adopted, regulated and deployed, amidst the magnitude of Quadrillions in global Real World Assets stampeding from decades old, antiquated processes into a DLT, Tokenized & AI facilitated infrastructure operating 24/7/365 with quantum computers processing trillions of calculations per second, the XRP skeptics, doubters, trolls, fear pornstars and economic a*******s dispatched by centralized, legacy era control freaks, will go silent.

And all who outsourced their trust to these jackals will weep.

The Crypto Capital of the World, the World’s AI Leader, the

@USTreasury and our GOAT @POTUS did not just happen to “coincidentally” be in place during America’s 250th Anniversary, celebrating our Declared Independence with Trust in God.

Freedom Fighter: This is a Currency Event that Needs to be Seen

3-24-2026

Freedom Fighter  @FreedomFight12

Attention: This is a currency event that needs to be seen

Watch what follows:

• revaluation across energy-linked economies
• pressure on USD corridors
• repricing of trade flows

Energy is the backbone of global settlement.
When supply breaks, liquidity shifts.

This is how energy → currency power actually moves.

Most will focus on energy prices.
Few will understand the global system is shifting.

PolyMarket: BREAKING: Goldman Sachs says current oil crisis is “the largest-ever supply shock for global crude markets.”

Currency shifts start here.

Militia Man  : I know the headlines are loud right now. The regional conflict is heating up.  Hormuz risks.  Oil price jumping around ...$112.  It's easy to feel the way all of us are feeling...But I think from what we are seeing, there should be no panic.  I know there's frustration...In my view Iraq is insulated from what's taking place in the region.  The system has been holding firm.  The progress...is still moving forward...The security blanket is strong and holding. The US has been crystal clear Iraq will not be pulled into the fighting... Their borders are secure...The conflict is serious.  I'm not discounting that.  But Iraq is not in the line of fire...That's why the economic side can keep running...They keep moving forward...

Jeff : 150+ laws, which [includes] the HCL, all come after the rate change.  All those laws have been waiting for the rate to change.  Don't let any other [gurus] confuse you by telling you when you see the HCL, you'll see the rate change.  The rate change comes first, then the HCL.  That's why they keep talking about the HCL because it's waiting for the rate to change. 

Mnt Goat   ...the Coordination Framework (an Iranian supported group) does not want al-Sudani as the next prime minister... He is bucking their control over Iraq. He wants Iraq to succeed while these others want status quo of an Iranian proxy puppet state. They liked the way it was and want the money to keep flowing. But if al-Sudani can get to the reinstatement their Iranian dream of a permanent Iraqi puppet state ends...But they may have to take al-Sudani as their candidate anyhow and this is the challenge that is going on. This is a pivotal point in Iraqi history...Can they break this Iranian stronghold in the politics of Iran? ...With al-Sudani running the government and president Trump supporting him, this is about the only way we are going to see the reinstatement any time soon...

Silver Crashes Again, But Here's What Market’s Missing

Arcadia Economics:  3-23-2026

We finally saw the long-awaited silver squeeze drive the price well past the long-heralded $50 mark last year, and eventually get as high as $121.76.

But while the price has come crashing down, have the issues that led the price to surge actually been resolved? Or is it just a matter of time before the silver supply runs into trouble again?

Fortunately, an executive from one of the world's largest primary silver producers joined me on the show to share what he's seeing first-hand, and what the market's still missing.

The IQD vs. GLE, How Countries Increase Value in their Currencies

The IQD vs. GLE, How Countries Increase Value in their Currencies

Edu Matrix:   3-22-2026

In a thought-provoking video on the Edu Matrix YouTube channel, Sandy Ingram draws a fascinating comparison between the economic and currency situations of Iraq and Georgia.

Georgia, a country that declared its independence from the Soviet Union in 1991, Sandy sheds light on the nation’s remarkable economic progress and contrasts it with the challenges faced by Iraq.

Georgia, a country with a relatively young history, has made tremendous strides in its economic development since joining the global economy in 1995.

With the support of institutions like the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank, Georgia has achieved significant milestones. Despite initial difficulties in tax collection, the country has managed to post positive GDP growth, curb inflation, and attract substantial international investment, particularly in the real estate and tourism sectors.

The Georgian currency, the Lari (GEL), has remained stable on the forex market, and the cost of living in the country remains affordable. This has made Georgia an attractive destination for retirees and tourists alike. The country’s tourism industry is thriving, with visitors drawn to its rich cultural heritage, stunning landscapes, and warm hospitality.

In stark contrast, Iraq continues to grapple with the challenges of economic modernization and public trust in its financial institutions.

The Central Bank of Iraq is attempting to introduce a new digital Iraqi dinar (IQD), but many Iraqis remain hesitant to deposit their money in banks due to a lack of confidence in the system. This lack of trust is a significant obstacle to the country’s economic development, and it is compounded by ongoing security issues.

Despite its rich historical and religious significance as the birthplace of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, and its ancient landmarks like Babylon and the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, Iraq’s economy remains stagnant.

Sandy Ingram questions whether Iraq can attract global tourists and investors given its current security challenges and lack of modernization.

The comparison between Georgia and Iraq implicitly highlights the crucial role that political stability, economic reforms, and openness to global markets play in determining a country’s currency strength and overall economic health. Georgia’s willingness to adopt economic reforms and engage with the global economy has been instrumental in its success.

In contrast, Iraq’s ongoing struggles with security and modernization have hindered its economic progress. The video suggests that a country’s economic fate is closely tied to its ability to create a stable and attractive business environment.

The video also touches on the cultural and generational divide in Georgia, where older generations retain a strong Russian influence, while younger citizens are embracing a distinct Georgian identity that is aligned with global trends. This cultural shift is likely to have a positive impact on Georgia’s continued economic development, as the younger generation is more likely to be open to new ideas and global best practices.

The Edu Matrix video offers a fascinating comparison between the economic situations of Georgia and Iraq.

While Georgia has made significant strides in its economic development, Iraq continues to face significant challenges. The key takeaways from the video highlight the importance of political stability, economic reforms, and openness to global markets in determining a country’s economic health.

As we watch the full video from Edu Matrix on YouTube, we are left with a deeper understanding of the complex factors that shape a nation’s economic trajectory.

The contrast between Georgia’s rise and Iraq’s struggles serves as a reminder that economic development is a multifaceted and ongoing process that requires careful planning, reform, and a willingness to engage with the global economy.

RV Excerpts from the Restored Republic via a GCR Update as of Mon. 23 March 2026

Compiled Mon. 23 March 2026 12:01 am EST by Judy Byington

Judy Note: “THIS IS THE BLACK SWAN: 23 March 2026 (03.23.2026). Remember this date. The 48 hours expire. The Strait closes or the grid falls. Either way, the fiat system collapses. Either way, the petrodollar dies.

“THE QUANTUM FINANCIAL SYSTEM IS NOT COMING. IT IS ALREADY HERE. WAITING. FOR THIS EXACT MOMENT. Gold. XRP. ISO 20022.

Sun. 22 March 2026 MAJOR ECONOMIC INTEL UPDATE — APRIL 2026 NESARA-ALIGNED OPERATIONS ARE NO LONGER HIDDEN. THEY ARE ACTIVE. …The Great Reset on Telegram

The financial shift that was once dismissed as speculation is now (allegedly) unfolding in real time.

Multiple high-level financial and institutional channels confirm that payout mechanisms tied to the transition framework have already(allegedly entered early execution phases under Treasury coordination and secured oversight structures.

April 2026 marks a critical acceleration point in what is now recognized as the largest financial restructuring in modern history.

What started as backend alignment in 2025 has now (allegedly moved into controlled public-phase integration.

Behind the scenes, the architecture of the old financial order is (allegedly being systematically dismantled while a new asset-backed framework is being activated in parallel. This phase includes:

• The controlled shutdown of legacy fiat dependency systems
• The reallocation of seized off-ledger assets into structured redistribution channels
• The unwinding of long-standing global debt mechanisms tied to central banking control
• The live integration of ISO20022 and asset-backed settlement layers

Every major institution is aware of the transition: Treasury, central banks, and global financial entities are already (allegedly operating within updated protocols. Public silence is intentional.

THE UNITED STATES IS NOW IN THE EXECUTION PHASE For decades, the system operated on inflation, debt expansion, and invisible extraction. That model is now reaching its endpoint.

Since early 2025, coordinated actions have been reshaping the financial core from within.

NESARA-aligned protocols are activating in layers:

• Internal systems are already processing debt-adjustment structures
• Gold-backed calibration models are running through Treasury-linked channels
• Recovered capital from international holdings is being redirected into controlled distribution pipelines
• Legacy banking clearance systems are being replaced by secure, next-generation financial rails

This infrastructure is already functioning — even if it is not being acknowledged publicly.

Jeff: The government could form very quickly after the war and voting on a president...This is just a gut feeling...more of an opinion, doesn't mean I'm right, but I have a feeling they have the formation of the government more strategically planned than they're telling us because they've said about extending Sudani's term countless times...Those are the things you need to look for to see how this is playing out...

Militia Man Iraq's current phase mirrors the Turkmenistan  transition in 2009...I studied it very thoroughly, paid attention to it and I knew Iraq's model was mirroring it.  It's not exact because we have new technologies...but the psychological aspect of it is for the people.  They need to have the people on board to do reforms and they do...Al-Sudani has trust... Turkmenistan first reduced cash circulation, enforced official rates and built reserves.  It then removed 3 zeros from its currency...followed by a managed float...Iraq has followed a similar sequence. 3 years of stacking reserves...non-oil revenues increased, inflation significantly low and note reduction through electronic payments... [Post 1 of 2....stay tuned]

Militia Man  The delete the three zeros project is a technical cleanup and a managed REER...Managed REER is the logical next step to reflect actual economic strength...So what comes next?  If all of this holds true, and the data strongly suggests it does, the logical next step is a managed REER adjustment when the CBI deems it is prudent.  A clean political slate would help create the most stable environment for that move.  But the CBI independence means the monetary decision can proceed on its own timeline once internal fundamentals and regional calm are in place...The next phase is the one we've been watching for for many years...I think the quiet way they've done this is winning...

Clare: US forces plan to establish two new bases in northern Iraq

3/21/2026

Information / Sulaymaniyah...

A responsible source in Sulaymaniyah province revealed on Saturday that US forces intend to establish two new bases in northern Iraq, in a move aimed at repositioning their forces in the country.

The source told Al-Maalomah News Agency that “American forces intend to establish two bases in the Sulaymaniyah and Duhok governorates in northern Iraq, in order to tighten their control over the northern governorates and provide protection for the occupation forces from any external targeting, in addition to paving the way for a new plan whose features are not yet known.”

The source added that "the process of establishing the two bases was characterized by complete secrecy, and no local official in the regional government or the Baghdad government addressed the American project for security reasons."

He explained that "an American force, supported by light and medium vehicles and weapons, conducted ground reconnaissance operations to determine the security arrangements for the designated location.

 Additionally, an American airborne force conducted aerial surveys of areas in the Sulaymaniyah and Duhok governorates in preparation for deploying additional forces in the northern governorates."   LINK

The United States has moved to dismantle a global financial network accused of channeling millions of dollars to Hizbollah, in a sweeping sanctions action targeting individuals and companies across several countries.

On Thursday, the US Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) announced the designation of a network of 16 individuals and entities led by Hizbollah financier Alaa Hassan Hamieh.

According to the Treasury, Hamieh oversees a network of companies controlled through family members and close associates, which are used to launder and raise funds for Hizbollah’s finance team. The network spans Lebanon, Syria, Poland, Slovenia, Qatar, and Canada, and is estimated to have enabled the diversion of over $100 million since 2020.

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said: “Iran is the head of the snake when it comes to global terrorism, and its proxies, such as Hizbollah, carry out Tehran’s mission to sow chaos and destruction beyond its borders. Hizbollah continues to divert funds that rightfully belong to the Lebanese people to finance its terrorist operations. This action targets key actors within its global financial network that sustain its militant activities.”

The action was taken under Executive Order 13224, which targets individuals and entities involved in terrorism financing. Hizbollah was previously designated as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist under the same authority on October 31, 2001, and as a Foreign Terrorist Organization on October 8, 1997.

US authorities said Hizbollah uses a wide range of revenue generation and sanctions evasion schemes coordinated through its finance team to fund both its militant wing and social programs. The group has also used its influence within Lebanon’s government to divert funds for its own benefit.

Investigations found that Hamieh owns or controls multiple companies linked to procurement and money laundering, including firms based in Lebanon, Poland, and Slovenia. Through his brother, Muhammad Hasan Hamieh, he tracks financial flows tied to these projects in coordination with other members of Hizbollah’s finance network.

In early 2025, Hamieh was involved, through his former position as Vice President of the Investment Development Authority of Lebanon (IDAL), in the disbursement of funds from a trade agreement between Iraq and Lebanon intended to support reconstruction. According to the Treasury, Hamieh personally received millions of US dollars for projects linked to Hizbollah under this arrangement. As of December 2025, he is no longer affiliated with IDAL following the appointment of a new board of directors.

Authorities also said Hamieh and Lebanese national Hamdan Ali Al Lakis established a money exchange business that allowed him to access funds while avoiding oversight tied to his former government role. The operation was used to support financial activities linked to the network.

Several individuals connected to the network were also designated, including Bahaa Addin Hashem, Mohamad Jamil Salami, and Raoof Fadel, who were described as providing material support to Hizbollah through business, financial, and logistical activities. Companies linked to these individuals, including telecommunications and logistics firms, were also targeted.

Additional designations include Mohamad Hasan Wehbe, Daniel Hamieh, Hala Muhammad Tarshishi, and Maya Boustany, who were identified as assisting in financial operations, acting as proxies, or facilitating transactions tied to the network.

The Treasury stated that these individuals and entities played roles in procurement, money laundering, and sanctions evasion schemes designed to sustain Hizbollah’s financial operations.

The action underscores ongoing US efforts to disrupt financial networks linked to Hizbollah and limit its access to global funding channels.   LINK

Militia Man  We all should be calm, cool and collected...even though there's some turmoil.  Iraq is still doing their monetary reforms and they're still showing they're consistent with it.  With everything happening in the region it's natural to feel uneasy.  It seems pretty daunting but the data from the last few days show something very clear to me.  Iraq is steady, resilient and moving forward with a purpose.

Frank26  Many things are lining up that point in the direction of adding value to the currency of Iraq.  It's too obvious...You're going to have the formation of Iraq's government.  Hopefully in the same venue, you would have the formation of Iran, although that's going to be more secondary.  The formation of Iraq is what's important first. Then you can go into the budget and look for that new rate...I feel extremely good in what I'm seeing.

Mnt Goat   We have seen so much success from the years of al-Sudani as the prime minister in spite of the efforts from the Iranians to hold it back. Yes, quite amazing! The point I need to make is that Iraq does not really need to make any more progress in any banking reforms etc... What they need is to get rid of the Iranians in their politics and in the PMF.   Reform the government, then watch this reinstatement go. My CBI contact tells me they are more than ready to go global with their dinar. I also want to remind you that they must first go through the process and conduct the Project to Delete the Zeros and collect all these stashes of money back into the banks. WOW what this will do to the economy alone.

Rob Cunningham: Truth is the Gold Standard

Rob Cunningham: Truth is the Gold Standard

TRUTH Is The Gold Standard

What made gold “gold”?
Was it the metal… or the properties it represented?

• Scarcity → could not be easily manipulated
• Verifiability → could be tested and trusted
• Finality → settlement meant done
• Neutrality → no ruler could arbitrarily redefine it
• Integrity → weight and measure mattered

The Real Question is:

Was gold the standard… or was truth the standard, with gold as its proxy?

The Limitation of the Old Frame

When people cling to physical gold bars as the only answer, they often miss something deeper:

Gold stored value well,
… but it did not move value efficiently.

• Settlement was slow
• Verification required trust layers
• Ledgering was fragmented
• Scale was limited

So while gold preserved honesty, it did not fully deliver functionality at a global, real-time level.

Let’s Reframe: “Golden Principles”

Let’s elevate the conversation from object → principle.

A true “Gold Standard” becomes:

A system that enforces truth, not one that just stores metal.

Let’s define Golden Principles clearly:

1. Honest Weights & Measures
→ No hidden dilution, no counterfeit claims

2. Mutual Consent
→ No coercion, no forced participation

3. Immediate Settlement
→ No IOUs masquerading as value

4. Immediate Ledgering
→ Reality recorded as it happens

5. Permanent, Transparent Verification
→ Truth that can be independently confirmed by all

The Deeper Question

If a system perfectly enforces these principles… does it matter what backs it?

Because at that point:

• Truth replaces trust
• Verification replaces authority
• Consent replaces coercion
• Finality replaces debt

That system begins to mirror something far older than gold…

The Tension Most People Miss

Here’s the uncomfortable but necessary question:

Can a system built on deception coexist with a system built on truth?

Or does one inevitably expose – and replace – the other?

Because:

• Debt thrives on delay
• Control thrives on opacity
• Power thrives on asymmetry

While your Golden Principles require the opposite of all three.

The Clean Distillation

We’re not abandoning the Gold Standard.

We’re fulfilling it.

Gold was the shadow.
Truth is the substance.

An honest system is not defined by what it holds…

It is defined by what it cannot hide.

When weights are true,
when consent is real,
when settlement is final,
when records are immutable –

We no longer need to trust the system.

Because the system is forced to tell the truth.

End of Week RV Report and Financial Updates for March 20, 2026

End of Week RV Report and Financial Updates for March 20, 2026

Jon Dowling:  3-20-2026

As we welcome the arrival of spring and observe significant religious celebrations, the world is witnessing a complex dance of geopolitical maneuvers, particularly in the Middle East.

The latest Weekly RV Report, dated March 20th, 2026, sheds light on the intricate developments surrounding Iraq, Iran, and their implications for the global commodities market and currency revaluation

The report highlights a series of strategic moves by Iraqi banks, including restrictions on cash withdrawals and limitations on dinar inflows for workers’ salaries.

This development is perceived as a deliberate attempt to stir public frustration, potentially paving the way for political action and regime change. The anticipation is that a shift towards a Sunni regime, reminiscent of Sadaam Hussein’s era, could bolster the dinar’s value, given its historical strength during that period.

The Kurdish factions, being the largest political block in Iraq, play a crucial role in this scenario, especially with the implementation of digitized salary payments and supportive legislation such as the HCL oil and gas law. These developments are seen as positive indicators for Iraq’s economic future.

The US is exerting significant pressure on Iraq to appoint an independent candidate for government formation within a tight two-week deadline, with the threat of sanctions looming large.

The report underscores that the forthcoming revaluation of the dinar will be contingent upon a synergy of factors, including regime change, legislative advancements, and the status of nuclear power plants, rather than a single event.This multifaceted approach suggests a cautious and coordinated strategy towards currency revaluation.

Iran is on the cusp of entering the revaluation arena, marked by ongoing US Treasury talks about potentially lifting sanctions on Iranian oil shipments. This development could have far-reaching implications for the global energy market and the revaluation process.

A significant shift is underway in the financial sector, with major banks adopting stablecoins and programmable blockchain settlements for foreign currencies, metals, and tokenized assets.

This transition indicates a move away from traditional currency systems towards a digital asset-backed framework, expected to be implemented by the second quarter of 2026. The adoption of digital finance infrastructure is poised to revolutionize the way transactions are conducted globally.

The report warns of escalating global turmoil, with the potential invasion of Taiwan by China being a significant concern that could drive silver prices sharply higher. Despite current downturns in silver and gold prices due to margin calls and speculative sell-offs, a rebound is anticipated in response to geopolitical shifts.

The Weekly RV Report concludes with a poignant tribute to the late Chuck Norris, a renowned actor and Christian, and Shel Marie Smith, a respected figure in the dinar investor community who succumbed to cancer.

As we navigate these complex and rapidly evolving developments, the host urges viewers to remain vigilant for breaking news and to stay safe amidst erratic weather patterns.
