Chris Real World: 4-21-2026
The global financial landscape is shifting beneath our feet. For those paying close attention, the signs of a massive transition—often referred to as the Global Financial Reset—are becoming impossible to ignore.
In a recent, high-stakes episode of the Jon Dowling podcast, returning guest and renowned researcher MarkZ joined the conversation to pull back the curtain on the geopolitical maneuvers, currency revaluations, and monetary shifts currently reshaping our world.
For years, the Iraqi Dinar has been a focal point for those watching the Global Currency Reset (GCR). MarkZ and Jon Dowling explored the intricate political dance currently happening in Baghdad. With the nomination of the Prime Minister caught in the crosshairs of Iranian influence and Western strategy, the stakes couldn’t be higher.
The discussion highlighted the strategy to reclaim Iraq’s sovereignty—both politically and financially—as a necessary domino to fall before the broader global reset can take full effect.
One of the most provocative segments centered on President Trump’s proposed shift toward a new U.S. currency. Moving away from the debt-based fiat system that has dominated since 1971, the discussion analyzed the move toward a dollar backed bygold and silver.
This isn’t just about economic stability; it’s about a dismantling of globalist control over currency. By tethering money to tangible assets, the goal is to end the “controlled demolition” of the current U.S. dollar and replace it with a system that rewards production and savings rather than inflation and debt.
We are witnessing a historic sell-off. China and Japan—traditionally the largest holders of U.S. Treasuries—are offloading their holdings at an unprecedented rate.
MarkZ explains that this isn’t accidental. It is part of a broader realignment of world orders. As the fiat U.S. dollar undergoes a managed decline, these global powers are repositioning themselves for a multi-polar world where the old rules of the Treasury-backed reserve currency no longer apply.
While the “when” is always the most difficult question to answer, the podcast highlighted two critical windows:
April 27th: A significant deadline regarding reset deals and international agreements.
July 4th: A date of high symbolic and strategic importance for potential major currency announcements.
While these dates serve as benchmarks, both the hosts and MarkZ emphasized that the process is already well underway, regardless of the specific day the “switch” is flipped.
Perhaps the most poignant part of the conversation was the shift from technical analysis to spiritual preparation. The transition into a new financial system will likely be volatile.
The overarching message was one of hope. The goal of this reset, according to the panel, is to facilitate a fairer, more transparent system that restores power to individuals and sovereign nations.
We are living through a transition that happens once in a century. While the “controlled demolition” of the old world can be frightening, it is a necessary precursor to building something better. As MarkZ and Jon Dowling reminded us, the key is to stay informed, stay prepared, and stay optimistic.

Iraq Is Wearing A Face That Doesn’t Belong To Them
The Claude Mythos Wild Card In More Detail
Claude Mythos isn’t some polite lab toy folks. Anthropic dropped this frontier beast in early April 2026 as a limited-preview monster under Project Glasswing. It autonomously rips through code like a chainsaw through wet paper discovering and chaining thousands of high-severity zero-day vulnerabilities across every major operating system and web browser.

Iraq Is Wearing A Face That Doesn’t Belong To Them
The Claude Mythos Wild Card In More Detail
Claude Mythos isn’t some polite lab toy folks. Anthropic dropped this frontier beast in early April 2026 as a limited-preview monster under Project Glasswing. It autonomously rips through code like a chainsaw through wet paper discovering and chaining thousands of high-severity zero-day vulnerabilities across every major operating system and web browser.
We’re talking decades-old rot: a 27-year-old bug in OpenBSD that survived endless audits, a 16-year-old slice in FFmpeg that fuzzers hit millions of times without spotting the exploit path, memory corruption in “secure” virtual machine monitors, and remote code execution flaws that hand root access to unauthenticated attackers.
The Direct Link to Currency Revaluation and Forex Migration
The global currency reset moving suppressed or distorted currencies toward tradable forex windows, tokenized rails, ISO 20022 migration, and on-chain auditability relies on exactly these vulnerable legacy systems for settlement, payroll processing, exchange mechanisms, and compliance rails. Mythos exposes the fragility at the worst possible moment for holdouts but at the best possible moment for the White Hat compression.
The Double-Dip Opportunity and Sequencing
Holders of other suppressed currencies (IQD, potentially IRR) watch closely.
A clean Venezuela forex window or rate adjustment doesn’t automatically “double dip” mechanically these are sovereign decisions tied to oil revenue, reserves, IMF/World Bank re-engagement (already resuming dealings with Venezuela), and bilateral U.S. licenses (recent GL 56/57 authorizations).
But it does compress timelines elsewhere by showing the reset path works when nodes are cleared: remove militia/government capture (Iraq-style dollar cutoff pressure), reclaim energy leverage (Hormuz/Iran playbook), force cyber hygiene (Mythos wildcard), and migrate to transparent mechanisms that starve old cutouts.
Bottom line, Mythos isn’t delaying the reset — it’s turbocharging the sequencing. Legacy opacity d--s faster when AI forces the world to patch or perish. Countries like Venezuela get the runway to deliver…

Ariel: Majeed is on the Money here
4-21-2026
I Want To Further Expound Upon This
Majeed KSA: this is actually a solid scenario. Let’s walk through it logically, not politically.
The key constraint If Venezuela wants new wages paid on May 1 using a new rate, then:
* Banks
* Payroll systems
* Government payment systems
* Exchange mechanisms all need time to process the new rate before salaries are calculated and paid.
And historically, even in Venezuela, these changes are never same-day—banks need lead time to adjust systems and distribute changes .
So when should they do it? Realistic answer: They should change the rate at least several days to 2 weeks before May 1.
⸻Why? Think of the sequence:
1. Day 0 (rate change announced & activated)
* Central bank updates official rate
* Financial system begins adjusting 2. + few days
* Banks, ATMs, payroll systems sync
* Businesses update pricing and accounting 3. Before payroll cutoff
* Government calculates salaries based on new rate 4. May 1
* Salaries are paid correctly under the new system
The critical cutoff Most payroll systems don’t calculate salaries on the same day—they’re usually processed a few days in advance. So if salaries are paid May 1, calculation likely happens around:April 25–28 (rough estimate)
Conclusion (clean answer) To safely increase wages by May 1: The exchange rate should be changed no later than mid–late April (around April 15–20) Absolute latest (risky): ~April 25 Ideal (stable rollout): 2 weeks before → around April 15
Majeed Is On The Money Here
Especially given the recent urgent meetings regarding Claude Mythos virus that banks are preparing for. This will further expedite the revaluation process.
Any legacy payroll or banking software running on outdated OS/browser stacks (common in emerging markets under prior isolation) now faces accelerated risk of cascading exploits during the sensitive transition window.
Bad actors could weaponize zero-days to disrupt salary disbursements, manipulate exchange data, or siphon liquidity right as the “more bang for the buck” rollout hits. That forces faster hardening prioritizing defensive patching via Glasswing partners (Palo Alto, CrowdStrike, etc.) and migration to auditable, on-chain or modernized rails.
Now you understand why POTUS kept mentioning they need to flip the switch. This is exactly what this means for the new financial platform or system necessary to combat this exploit.
Also if Venezuela aims to roll out new wages or payments around May 1 (Labor Day timing for political punch) using an improved or revalued rate, the systems need lead time.
Banks, government payroll platforms, central bank exchange windows, and private-sector payment processors must update rate tables, test settlement flows, recalibrate compliance checks, and distribute changes without triggering runs, black-market chaos, or exploit windows.
Watching this play out in this manner is unbelievable.
The global currency reset moving suppressed or distorted currencies toward tradable forex windows, tokenized rails, ISO 20022 migration, and on-chain auditability relies on exactly these vulnerable legacy systems for settlement, payroll processing, exchange mechanisms, and compliance rails. Mythos exposes the fragility at the worst possible moment for holdouts but at the best possible moment for the US Military/White Hat compression plan.
One thing about this Claude Mythos thing and where Iraq is in their monetary reforms is extremely critical given that their current goal is to bring confidence to their currency. Well guess what Iraqi banking systems often run on patched-but-vulnerable OS stacks or outdated middleware.
Mythos is said to chain remote code execution to manipulate auction data in real time inflating/deflating bids, injecting ghost transactions, or draining liquidity during high-volume windows.
Which means a successful hit during a sensitive reform phase that they are now in triggers immediate black-market premium spikes and erodes trust in the dinar. This is why POTUS is pushing them to get this done because they are totally oblivious to the seriousness of what This can do. Because they are still moving aa if we didn’t invest billions into their new banking system that was created to help them face these types of challenges.
But they want to play politics and come out and deny what Washington did by pulling all USD shipments. Internally when it comes to State salaries, pensions, and military payouts rely on centralized platforms tied to legacy databases. Mythos finds auth bypass or destructive DoS flaws, then escalates to alter rate tables or freeze disbursements. In a redenomination scenario (removing zeros internally), this could corrupt conversion logic, create double-spend chaos, or leak sensitive holder data.
The dollar shipment suspension already starves liquidity add Mythos exploitation and you get cascading bank runs or militia-linked skims going haywire. This is why I keep telling you all we are on a unpredictable timeline.

Dinar For Dummies: 4-21-2026
The geopolitical landscape in the Middle East is shifting, and for investors in the Iraqi dinar, these changes are more significant than ever.
A recent deep dive by Stephen, an entrepreneur and long-time investor in the dinar, sheds light on a high-stakes standoff between the United States and Iraq that could fundamentally alter the nation’s currency stability and sovereign future.
The US Just Turned up the Pressure on the Dinar
Dinar For Dummies: 4-21-2026
The geopolitical landscape in the Middle East is shifting, and for investors in the Iraqi dinar, these changes are more significant than ever.
A recent deep dive by Stephen, an entrepreneur and long-time investor in the dinar, sheds light on a high-stakes standoff between the United States and Iraq that could fundamentally alter the nation’s currency stability and sovereign future.
At the core of the discussion is a startling development: reports that the United States has halted shipments of U.S. dollars to Iraq. According to Stephen, this move is a direct response to the presence of Iranian-backed militia members within the Iraqi government and parliament.
For years, the U.S. has maintained a firm stance on Iraq’s sovereignty, but this latest maneuver signals a major escalation. By leveraging its financial influence—specifically the flow of physical U.S. dollars that Iraq relies on to pay government salaries, manage its budget, and stabilize its currency—the U.S. is effectively pressuring Baghdad to purge Iranian influence from its ranks.
The gravity of this situation cannot be overstated. Iraq’s economy is heavily dependent on this supply of U.S. currency. Stephen warns that a prolonged suspension of dollar shipments could have catastrophic repercussions.
While the Central Bank of Iraq has publicly denied rumors of a halt in dollar shipments, Stephen urges investors to look beyond official statements. In the murky waters of international finance and geopolitics, government denials are common, even when reports on the ground suggest an entirely different reality.
Stephen views these tensions as part of a broader, more aggressive U.S. strategy to restore Iraqi sovereignty. By using both economic pressure and military deterrence, the U.S. appears to be signaling that the status quo—where Iranian-backed elements hold sway over Iraqi policy—is no longer acceptable.
This is compounded by rising tensions between the U.S. and Iran. With a ceasefire agreement expiring and hostile rhetoric escalating, the potential for renewed military action is a factor that every investor needs to monitor closely.
Despite the potential for short-term chaos, Stephen offers a more optimistic long-term outlook.
He suggests that this intense external pressure may be the “tough love” required to force Iraq into genuine monetary reform.
By eliminating Iranian interference, the path could finally be cleared for a more stable, independent, and modernized Iraqi financial system—a prerequisite for any potential revaluation of the Iraqi dinar.
Geopolitics and currency investing go hand-in-hand when it comes to the Iraqi dinar. As the situation evolves, it is crucial to stay informed through independent verification and expert analysis.

Member: Any bond news Mark?
MZ: I spoke to a couple of bond holders and they say they get their full funding this week. They told them not to expect it until the middle of the week…..most likely Wednesday. Cross your fingers and hope.
Member: Still waiting for news that the Clarity act has passed
Member: Mark are we getting off stuck in terms of the PM being sat?
MZ: On Tuesday articles say there were behind the scenes meetings to confirm the Prime Ministers file. Confirming the withdrawal of Maliki and Abadi. The vote took place with 9 leaders out of 12. Sudani abstained form the vote. Tomorrow they will announce the official candidate for Prime Minister.
Member: If bonds are paid tomorrow and Sudani is official pm… hcl will follow closely behind. …our time might be very near.
MZ: Been some big happenings in Iraq: “Iraq has not received any dollar transfers for the last 72 hours” The US is tired of them playing games.
MZ: Cliff notes from articles. In Iraq now- you can only pay for real estate whether you are renting or buying with Iraqi Dinar. They can no longer use the US dollar. It has to be in dinar. This is huge. We were told they would do this. It took them a long time.
MZ: There was a real good piece out “ Iraq has been ready for 20 years” by Reset Intelligence over at Dinar Recaps. Its from a book titled “Head of the Snake- the hidden architecture of Iran: Wealth Extraction and Global Control” by David E. Attherton.
MZ: It talks about how Iraq has been ready for a long time. But they have not been allowed to because the Deep State has using them to funnel and launder funds through Iran. The author makes a very compelling case how Iraq may revalue in this process going on right now. Very interesting article.

Member: When did Kuwait RV?
Member: Kuwait went Sunday March 24, 1991…some people say Kuwait did not revalue their currency?
MZ: In Kuwait they devalued the old currency….printed new currency and then revalued it. Just like Iraq is expected to do. The devalued the old Sadaam Hussein notes and printed the notes we all hold.
Member: Other gurus said 4-20 was going to be big.
MZ: My bond contacts think the week of the 20th will be big……we will wait and see….

Militia Man Heavy crude topped up about $117 a barrel. That's a big big amount of money over the $70 budget, padding those reserves...They talk about their reserves. They talk about their gold. They talk about all these things. Saleh has been hammering it home. He's been giving reassurances for quite some time. Nothing has changed from that aspect...
Frank26The next step is to give the citizens of Iraq purchasing power. How are you going to give the citizens of Iraq purchasing power? By introducing a new exchange rate followed by redenomination with lower notes because the lower notes would replace the three zero notes...They're not printing a new currency but they are educating the Iraqi citizens about a new currency that they've never dealt with before so it's not a shock to the system. Tomorrow they'll tell them even more.
Jeff June 20, 2021 they set two conditions for deleting the currency. Article "Al-Kazemi's financial advisor: Deleting three zeros from the currency is an option" Quote "The first condition is price stability and global economic growth, and the second is appropriate stability in political life." They clearly tell you from the central bank, political stability is the number one thing you're looking for as a dinar investor to know when they're going to be ready to revalue the currency...That's why Iraq has been telling you they're going implement the banking reforms after the government is formed because they're going to revalue after the government is formed.
BREAKING: Venezuela Sanctions Lifted Iraq Hit With New Sanctions
Edu Matrix: 4-21-2026
BREAKING: Venezuela Sanctions Lifted Iraq Hit With New Sanctions - . What does this mean for the future of both currencies?
In this video, we break down the latest developments as Venezuela sanctions are lifted and how that is helping stabilize the Venezuelan currency over the past two weeks.
With the U.S. Treasury allowing transactions with certain Venezuelan banks, the country now has greater access to U.S. dollars, boosting confidence and supporting short-term economic stability.
We also discuss how Venezuela’s banking system is reopening to international activity, allowing more direct access to oil revenue and global financial systems.
Plus, renewed contact with the IMF (International Monetary Fund) is increasing investor confidence and pushing Venezuelan bonds higher.
At the same time, Iraq sanctions hit hard, targeting individuals connected to the Coordination Framework. We explain what these U.S. Treasury sanctions mean for Iraq’s financial system and how this could impact the Iraqi dinar moving forward.
When comparing the Venezuelan bolívar to the Iraqi dinar (IQD), there are key differences.
Venezuela has struggled with hyperinflation and currency devaluation, while Iraq has maintained relative stability, backed by strong foreign reserves and massive oil wealth.
Key takeaway: When U.S. banks allow transactions and global access improves, currencies can stabilize. The question is—can Iraq follow a similar path?

Twenty Years. That’s How Long Iraq Has Been Ready For The Reset.
By David E. Atterton | Reset Intelligence | @EXIT_FIAT
The infrastructure has been live since 2018. The constitutional framework was signed in 2005. Every technical component for a dinar that reflects Iraq’s actual economy has existed for close to two decades.
The rate didn’t move for one reason. And it is documented in $17.7 billion of signed court records.
If you have been in dinarland for any length of time, you have heard the same question asked ten thousand times. Why is it taking so long?
The answer is not incompetence. Not instability. Not “Iraq isn’t ready.”
Iraq’s banking system was running the largest sanctions evasion and money laundering network in the Middle East on behalf of Iran. You do not move the exchange rate of a currency that is the pipeline for billions of dollars in sanctioned flow. You shut the pipeline down first, then you move the rate.
That shutdown is now on the record. Public. Documented. Finished.
The $17.7 Billion Paper Trail
Between 2009 and 2023, seventeen Western banks paid $17.7 billion in US government fines for processing Iranian money through the dollar system. Not a---------s. Fines paid. Consent orders signed. Statements of Facts admitting specific wire transfers, specific dates, specific Iranian counterparties.
• BNP Paribas – $8.9 billion (2014) – $8.8 billion in sanctioned Iranian, Sudanese, and Cuban transactions over seven years
• HSBC – $1.9 billion (2012) – Iranian and Mexican cartel laundering
• Standard Chartered – $1.1 billion across two settlements – Iranian transactions cleared through New York
• Commerzbank – $1.45 billion (2015) – Iran and Sudan violations
• Société Générale – $1.34 billion (2018) – Iran and Libya sanctions breaches
Every one of those settlements traces back to Iranian counterparties. And a significant portion of those counterparties cleared through Iraqi correspondent accounts at institutions like Trade Bank of Iraq, Al-Bilad, Al-Taif, and Warka Bank.
Iraq’s banking sector was not a bystander. It was the Middle East node of the Iranian dollar workaround. That is why the rate was locked.
Why The IMF Wouldn’t Let It Move
The International Monetary Fund conducts what is called an Article IV consultation with every member country. It is a compliance review. For Iraq, Article IV reviews between 2015 and 2022 consistently flagged the same thing: money laundering and t-------m financing risk tied to the informal banking sector and private bank correspondent relationships.
Stated position of the IMF, repeated in every consultation: Iraq must complete banking sector reform before monetary policy normalization.
Monetary policy normalization. That is the technical term for the thing dinarland has been calling “the RV” for twenty years.
What Got Done
The reform is on paper and in the record:
• Approximately 400 currency exchange houses running hawala for Iranian entities were shut down between 2023 and 2025
• Iraq’s private banking sector was consolidated from 40-plus institutions down to a supervised core
• Electronic payment infrastructure was rolled out to make shadow transactions traceable
• US Treasury and the Central Bank of Iraq signed joint statements in 2023, 2024, and 2025 transitioning from “compliance remediation” to “monetary policy coordination”
• The 2024 IMF Article IV consultation removed the money-laundering-risk language that had been in every prior review since 2015
Each of those is a public document. Each has a date. Each is searchable.
The Signal
Iraq sits on approximately $16 trillion in proven natural resources. Fifth-largest oil reserves on Earth. Second-largest phosphate deposits globally. Gold reserves past $21 billion. Its current exchange rate of 1,310 dinars to the dollar was set by an occupying authority in 2003 and was never designed to be permanent.
What changed in 2024 is not Iraq’s wealth. Iraq’s wealth has been there the entire time. What changed is the sanctioned-money plumbing that required the rate to stay artificial. That plumbing is gone.
When Central Bank of Iraq Governor Ali Al-Alaq and US Treasury officials sit down in the same room in 2025 and talk about “monetary policy coordination,” that is not a throwaway phrase. It is the language that historically precedes an official realignment.

Fiat US Dollar Collapsing, Global Currency Reset Activated
And Power Shifting Back To The People
Summary:
According to the latest report from Judy Byington, dated April 20, 2026, the transition from a fiat-based system to a gold-backed Global Currency Reset (GCR) has reached a critical flashpoint.
The update suggests that the traditional banking corridor, long dominated by the “global elite,” is currently being dismantled as institutions fail to meet Basel III compliance standards—meaning they lack the physical gold or assets necessary to back their holdings.
This has allegedly led to the freezing of over 143,000 individual bank accounts in a single day, prompting urgent warnings for citizens to secure cash reserves before the traditional system becomes inaccessible.
Central to this transition is the implementation of the Quantum Financial System (QFS), which reportedly took control of the global SWIFT system earlier this month.
The report indicates that the QFS is a gold-backed global financial framework that operates outside the reach of corrupt entities.
As the “Old World” structure collapses, 209 nations have supposedly synchronized their currencies with gold, effectively ending the era of fiat slavery.
For the average citizen, this shift is expected to manifest through “Redemption Centers,” where individuals will set up digital wallets on the Starlink Satellite System. These wallets are intended to mirror existing bank balances, though the report emphasizes that personal accounts in the United States must be managed through these specific centers rather than traditional banks.
One of the most significant aspects of this update is the imminent announcement of NESARA and GESARA. These protocols are described as a “Debt Jubilee,” a massive financial reset where illigal mortgages, credit card debts, and student loans are excused.
This redistribution of wealth is reportedly funded by seized “Cabal” assets and global trust funds that have been redirected into the QFS. The report suggests that humanity is moving toward a system of “sovereign fund dashboards,” where every citizen will have access to their own funds and notification of their debt-wipe status via secure texts and emails.
The timeline provided for the remainder of April 2026 is tight and high-stakes. The update warns of a “Ten Days of Darkness” beginning around April 21, during which banks will close, and ATMs and credit cards will cease to function.
This period is intended for the “GESARA wealth drop” and a 48-hour blackout to facilitate the final transition. By April 23, Zim redemptions are expected to flood humanitarian projects, and the QFS is slated to (allegedly)go live for the general public.
This transition is framed as a move toward a sovereign treasury system that eliminates income tax in favor of a simplified 14% sales tax and various tariffs.
For those involved in humanitarian efforts, often referred to in the report as Tier4B, the instructions are specific. Potential “project managers” are encouraged to have their project budgets and impact statements prepared in both fiat and grams of gold.
The report notes that “Green Bar” notifications are already being sent to those who have passed final reconciliation, signaling that appointment slots for currency exchange are being populated.
The overarching message of Byington’s report is one of preparation and vigilance—urging people to move away from traditional banking institutions and toward a new era of digital, asset-backed financial sovereignty.

StephenThis is a very real investment that I think is going to pay off in a very large way for all of us who are invested. That's why I have stuck in it for so long...I do believe we are closer than ever before for it happening. But stay grounded. Have realistic expectations.
Frank26 Once [Iraqi's] government is formed, then we are going to push for the new exchange rate because we want fairness with the American dollar. If not Trump will leave Iraq. That's the last thing Iraq wants...
Mnt Goat Article: “Minerals and “white gold” put Najaf on the investment map in Iraq” This...article...solidifies to us once again the importance of Iraq and its wealth...get out of their ‘rentier’ economy of sole 95% of oil revenues. Is this part of what we all have been waiting for? Yes... A dinar rate of 132? I don’t think so...silica mining (white gold) and other projects like it in part is what is going to get the reinstatement at a higher rate once it goes back on FOREX. We don’t go the bank until its back on FOREX. Of course, we all know that the reinstatement is being intentionally held back. Iraq could easily sustain a rate of about $3.22 right now as it was prior to the 1991 war...

Member: Good Morning – Welcome to a new week
Member: But, is it the week we have been waiting for???
MZ: I am expecting a crazy week. I hear rumors that this is our week….but they also said that last week and we did not get it.
MZ: On the bond side- we are still waiting for updates today. Updates usually start flowing Mon. afternoon to Tuesday morning.
Member: Rumor -Melanie Hines says a not public but supposedly IQD is on the Forex where the rate is at $4.81...
Member: Mike Bara said the IQD would be about $5.81
MZ: There has not been a rate change yet. But lots of misinformation on rates out there.
Member: Frank26 hearing Iraq will take the full 15 days to decide on the PM. Typical Iraq stalling. The US really needs to have a come to Jesus meeting with Iraq to get this done.
Member: Frank26 also said Alak is being replaced because of his ties to Iran. But who knows if that is true.
MZ: I have not seen that from any of my sources.
Member: sudani in , sudani out, sudani in, what the heck is iraq doing, they are a mess
MZ: More people and groups came out this weekend in support of sudani. They are dropping support of Maliki. They allegedly delayed the vote from this weekend until today. I am told they are trying to seat Sudani today. But it has not happened yet.
Member: Sudani seemed SO resistant to changing the rate. Do you think he'd still drag his heels in he gets reelected? Not to mention his love affair with the abusive Iran…
Member: Amir Tsarfati reporting that US has suspended its security coordination with Iraq until a new Gov't is formed and those responsible for attacking American targets in country are identified.
Member: In the Newsweek Article Sudani talks about a new age in Iraq and new relationship with US going forward and says They are ready now
MZ: “Currency printing in Iraq: Between financial need and Economic risk on the dinar” a bit of fear mongering from Iraq. This is normal and happens in every country due to politics. Saleh of course is very reassuring.
MZ: “Iraq seeks solutions to revenue shortfall” Here is saleh giving us his common sense version that the government has lots of options.
Member: May 1st All Venezuelan people get pay raise ....sounds like a rate hike to me
Member: I'm literally blown away with all the news I'm receiving about what we're all waiting for on so many levels. Not even Currency related but from different directions that confirms that we are close.
Member: I feel good about this month for us. Lots of prophetic words pointing to now for it to happen.
Member: Something big is supposed to happen at the end of April I hope it's the Rv...
Member: Enjoy your day everyone…..God Bless

Attention:
XRP is about to make a lot more sense to people.
Global currencies require speed, liquidity, and settlement.

Attention:
XRP is about to make a lot more sense to people.
Global currencies require speed, liquidity, and settlement.
The Clarity Act isn’t about hype — it’s about currency infrastructure.
When regulation forces clarity, banks don’t fight it…
they integrate with systems built for cross-border value movement.
That’s where XRP fits.
Not price.
Use case.
Watch the shift.

Majeed KSA@majeed66224499
Venezuela’s president last week asked US to lift the sanction on their central bank saying, removing them would help the country’s economy and would help increasing citizens/workers income.
And in the quote post from today … saying removing the sanction will help Venezuela to re-enter the global financial system.
All that indicates one thing.

The rate has to be on Forex BEFORE May 1.
In order for Venezuela to increase workers income by May 1.
MajeedKSA: This article from April 14 Talking about the eased sanction on Venezuela Central bank and why it matters “Why it matters: Venezuela's government-run bank and other large financial institutions can now begin legally using U.S. currency, directly receive billions of dollars in oil sales and re-enter the U.S.-controlled global financial system to help its damaged economy.” Forex

This comprehensive update from the host, fresh from his move to Middle Tennessee, underscores a vital principle: approaching unfolding geopolitical, economic, and financial developments with logic, not emotion.
The report paints a vivid picture of a world on the cusp of significant transformation, driven by strategic political maneuvers, shifting economic landscapes, and a volatile geopolitical climate.
At the heart of this report lies a detailed look at President Trump’s strategic timeline for peace negotiations and sweeping economic reforms, culminating around April 27th.
This date isn’t just arbitrary; it’s pegged as the potential moment for the passing of the pivotal Clarity Act and the appointment of Kevin Warsh as the new Federal Reserve Chair, replacing Jerome Powell.
This move is presented as more than just a personnel change; it’s a fundamental restructuring of the financial system, with significant implications for global markets.
The April 18th, 2026 RV report paints a picture of a world on the cusp of significant transformation. From fundamental shifts in U.S. financial leadership to intricate currency revaluations across the globe and the ever-present specter of geopolitical tensions, the message is clear: understanding these intricate connections is paramount. As the host rightly emphasizes, logical analysis will be key to navigating these evolving landscapes.
