CRYPTO-BACKED CANDIDATES WIN FLORIDA SPECIAL ELECTION, HEAD TO U.S. HOUSE
Two Republican candidates supported by the crypto-funded political action committee Fairshake have secured seats in the US House of Representatives following special election in Florida, marking a notable win for the digital asset industry.
Jimmy Patronis emerged victorious in Florida’s 1st Congressional District, defeating Democrat Gay Valimont with 57% of the vote, according to Associated Press data.
Good Morning Dinar Recaps,
CRYPTO-BACKED CANDIDATES WIN FLORIDA SPECIAL ELECTION, HEAD TO U.S. HOUSE
Two Republican candidates supported by the crypto-funded political action committee Fairshake have secured seats in the US House of Representatives following special election in Florida, marking a notable win for the digital asset industry.
Jimmy Patronis emerged victorious in Florida’s 1st Congressional District, defeating Democrat Gay Valimont with 57% of the vote, according to Associated Press data.
Meanwhile, Randy Fine clinched the 6th District seat with 56.7% support, overcoming public school teacher Josh Weil. These elections filled vacancies left by Matt Gaetz and Mike Waltz, respectively—the latter recently taking up a post as White House national security adviser.
GOP Tightens Grip on Long-Held Florida Districts Amid Narrowing Margins
Both districts have traditionally been Republican strongholds for the past three decades, though recent cycles have shown narrowing margins. The latest victories further solidify GOP control in these areas.
Fairshake, a crypto-focused PAC backed by major industry players such as Coinbase, Ripple, and venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, spent heavily in support of both candidates.
The PAC invested approximately $1.16 million on behalf of Fine and $347,000 to bolster Patronis’s campaign.
Both incoming representatives have openly supported the cryptocurrency industry. In a January 14 post on X (formerly Twitter), Fine declared, “Floridians want crypto innovation!”
Fairshake has played an increasingly influential role in US politics, channeling roughly $170 million into the 2024 election cycle to support candidates aligned with pro-crypto legislation.
With Patronis and Fine entering the House, Republican representation rises to 220 seats, while Democrats hold 213. Two additional seats remain vacant following the recent deaths of Representatives Sylvester Turner (D-TX) and Raúl Grijalva (D-AZ) earlier this month.
While the GOP would have retained its House majority regardless of the Florida outcomes, the added support strengthens the likelihood of advancing crypto-related legislation in Congress.
Several bills are already in play, including the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for US Stablecoins (GENIUS) Act, which passed the Senate Banking Committee in mid-March with bipartisan support.
Rep. Ro Khanna Says Crypto Legislation Could Pass This Year
At the Digital Assets Summit on March 18, Democratic Representative Ro Khanna expressed optimism that Congress could pass both a stablecoin framework and a broader crypto market structure bill this year.
In addition, Senator Cynthia Lummis recently reintroduced a bill to establish a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, a move that aligns with ongoing Republican efforts to bolster U.S. leadership in digital asset infrastructure.

TED CRUZ INTRODUCES FLARE ACT TO REPURPOSE FLARED GAS FOR BITCOIN MINING
The Texas Senator’s Facilitate Lower Atmospheric Released Emissions bill aims to make the state “the number one place for Bitcoin mining.”
U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) has introduced a new bill aiming to turn waste energy into electricity for Bitcoin mining.
The Facilitate Lower Atmospheric Released Emissions (FLARE) Act, introduced on March 31, is geared towards making waste energy productive by capturing gas that would otherwise be flared or vented. The plan is to incentivise this capture by offering full expensing for property used to capture that gas.
Cruz specifically pointed to crypto mining as a direct output of this extra energy. In a statement announcing the bill’s introduction, he said that it, “takes advantage of Texas’s vast energy potential, reinforces our position as the home of the Bitcoin industry, and is good for the environment.”
The Senator affirmed his commitment to "making Texas the number one place for Bitcoin mining,” adding that the FLARE Act, “incentivizes entrepreneurs and crypto miners to use natural gas that would otherwise be stranded."
The U.S. focused bill specifically names competitive countries that shall not be allowed to participate in the scheme, including China, Iran, North Korea and Russia.
In a press release from Cruz’s office, Hailey Miller, Director of Government Relations & Public Policy at the Digital Power Network, praised the new bill, saying that Bitcoin miners are “uniquely positioned to help reduce emissions by harnessing stranded and wasted energy sources.”
Miller added that the FLARE Act “ensures that American energy producers have the tools to deploy cutting-edge solutions that make our energy markets more efficient and resilient."
The new Act would specifically, "amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to provide for permanent full expensing for property used to capture gas that would otherwise be flared or vented and to use such gas in value-added products."
This measure should also help to enhance grid resilience while offering new electricity and "other useful outputs."
Cruz’s bill comes after U.S. President Donald Trump pledged to ensure that “all remaining Bitcoin” would be mined in the U.S. as part of his reelection campaign. Bitcoin advocates have long held that mining the cryptocurrency could be a means of harnessing waste energy from natural gas flaring, the practice of burning off excess gas that can’t be economically captured or transported.

Iraq's highest religious authority, Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani, called on Iraqis on Tuesday to adhere to their national principles and maintain hope for the future.

In a message conveyed by one of his representatives and monitored by the Video News Agency, Ayatollah Sistani said, "The country is moving toward recovery and stability," calling on everyone to "not fear and to cling to hope for a better future."
According to the letter, Ayatollah Sistani emphasized "the importance of Iraqis adhering to authentic customs, values, and principles, as they are the foundation that preserves the unity and identity of society."
According to the letter, Ayatollah Sistani specifically addressed the Shiite sect, saying, "Shias possess a great cultural heritage, and it is essential that they recognize and preserve it as part of their cultural and historical identity." link
Tishwash: One of them is in Iraq...American "BlackRock" acquires ports in the Middle East.
US asset management firm BlackRock and Italian shipping company MSC have acquired 43 ports owned by Hong Kong-based multinational CK Hucheng Holdings in a deal that will give the US asset manager control of 12 ports in the Middle East, located on strategic coasts stretching from the UAE and Oman to Iraq and Egypt.
In March 2025, a consortium of BlackRock and MSC reached a $22.8 billion deal to acquire 43 ports owned by CK Huzhen, a Hong Kong-listed company owned by one of Asia's richest men, 96-year-old billionaire Li Ka-shing.
The deal made headlines because it would give BlackRock and MSC control of two ports at each end of the Panama Canal, the strategic waterway that US President Donald Trump has threatened to seize to limit China's influence in the Western Hemisphere.
But the agreement's impact extends beyond Panama to the Middle East, where Arab countries, particularly the Gulf states, are seeking to diversify their economies away from oil. The shipping and ports sectors represent another source of economic diversification for these countries.
Which ports will BlackRock and MSC acquire in the Middle East?
Under the deal reached between the US-based BlackRock and Italy's MSC Group, the two companies are set to acquire 12 ports in the Middle East, distributed as follows:
Egypt (5): Alexandria - Dekheila - Abu Qir - Ain Sokhna - and the new B100 berth at Alexandria Port
Emirates (4): Ras Al Khaimah - Ajman - Khasab - UAQ
Sultanate of Oman (1): Sohar
Iraq (1): Basra

Tishwash: Iraq and the Appeasement Strategy: A Difficult Balance in Times of Pressure
Iraq has recently faced a significant escalation in US economic and financial pressure, primarily targeting dollar transactions and Iranian gas imports, along with repeated demands regarding the future of the Popular Mobilization Forces.
These pressures come as part of Washington's efforts to isolate Iraq economically from Iran, with the aim of strengthening the effectiveness of sanctions imposed on Tehran to force it to reassess its nuclear program.
However, this policy presents Iraq with complex challenges as it attempts to maintain a delicate balance in its foreign relations.
Recent reports indicate that the United States has refused to renew the waivers that allowed Iraq to import gas and electricity from Iran. This was confirmed by Iraqi Foreign Minister Fuad Hussein on March 19, 2025, who noted that Washington described the decision as "irreversible."
This decision threatens to exacerbate the energy crisis in Iraq, which relies heavily on Iranian gas to power its power plants. Imported gas accounts for approximately 40% of the country's total energy needs, according to estimates from the Iraqi Parliament's Oil and Gas Committee.
On the financial front, the United States is seeking to restrict dollar transactions in Iraq to prevent its smuggling to Iran, which is suffering from massive economic pressures due to sanctions. According to a report, Washington believes that cutting off these financial arteries will directly weaken Tehran, thus strengthening the impact of the sanctions.
But this approach places the Iraqi government in a difficult position, as Iraq holds financial reserves exceeding $100 billion in the United States, making it dependent on Washington's goodwill to access its oil revenues.
Separately, statements by the Iranian ambassador to Baghdad, Mohammed Kazem Al-Sadiq, on March 27, 2025, sparked widespread controversy when he said that US President Donald Trump's letter to Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei included a request to dissolve the Popular Mobilization Forces and other armed factions.
However, Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani quickly denied any direct US request in this regard, stressing that any decision to dissolve the factions is linked to the end of the international coalition's presence in Iraq.
For his part, MP Alaa Al-Haidari defended the Popular Mobilization Forces Law, considering it an internal matter aimed at honoring those who sacrificed for the nation.
The Iraqi government is adopting a strategy of appeasement in its foreign policy, attempting to maintain a balance between the United States and Iran, two of its historical allies. However, this approach faces increasing challenges, especially with mounting US pressure to end economic and military coordination with Tehran. Analysts believe that Washington also aims to "undermine the unity of the arenas," the strategy Iran uses to connect its fronts in Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and Yemen.
Economically, Iraq is paying the price for its heavy reliance on Iran for energy. Iraqi lawmakers have called for exploring alternatives, such as Qatar and Turkey, for gas imports. However, this step requires huge investments and a long time frame, both of which may be unavailable given the current crisis. Conversely, experts believe that economic decoupling between Baghdad and Tehran could increase pressure on Iran, but it could also cause internal unrest in Iraq, especially if the electricity crisis worsens. link

The Fed Confirms Crisis as Hedge Fund Bailout Begins
The Fed Confirms Crisis as Hedge Fund Bailout Begins
Taylor Kenny: 4-1-2025
The Federal Reserve has quietly pulled back on its quantitative tightening policy.
While this may sound like an obscure financial adjustment, for those paying attention, it's a sign of something far more serious.
This shift is a clear indication that the foundation of our financial system is under unprecedented strain. The question isn't when to get out of the current system—it's why wait?
The Fed Confirms Crisis as Hedge Fund Bailout Begins
Taylor Kenny: 4-1-2025
The Federal Reserve has quietly pulled back on its quantitative tightening policy.
While this may sound like an obscure financial adjustment, for those paying attention, it's a sign of something far more serious.
This shift is a clear indication that the foundation of our financial system is under unprecedented strain. The question isn't when to get out of the current system—it's why wait?
The financial world is a complex web of interconnected policies and reactions. Often, the most significant shifts occur not with a fanfare, but with a hushed adjustment, a subtle tweak that speaks volumes to those who know where to listen.
That’s precisely what’s happening now as the Federal Reserve has quietly begun to ease back on its quantitative tightening (QT) policy.
For the uninitiated, quantitative tightening is the process of shrinking the Fed’s balance sheet by allowing previously purchased bonds to mature without reinvesting the proceeds. It’s essentially the opposite of quantitative easing (QE), which was used extensively to inject liquidity and stimulate the economy after the 2008 financial crisis and during the CovidD-19 pandemic. QT is intended to reduce inflation by decreasing the money supply and raising interest rates.
So, why is this seemingly minor recalibration a cause for concern? Because it suggests that the foundation of our financial system is showing significant cracks.
The Fed embarked on QT to combat inflation, a laudable goal. However, prematurely easing off the brakes suggests the economy, or more accurately, the financial system, is struggling to withstand the pressure.
Think of it as a doctor prescribing a medication and then, realizing the side effects are too severe, drastically reducing the dosage before the course is complete. The implication is clear: the patient is more fragile than initially anticipated.
In short, the Fed’s pivot is a signal that the system is under stress, struggling to cope with the very medicine intended to heal it.
While some may argue this is merely a prudent adjustment to navigate a complex landscape, others see it as a canary in the coal mine, warning of a potentially catastrophic collapse.
This raises a crucial question for informed individuals: If the very institutions designed to stabilize the financial system are signaling underlying fragility, should we continue to passively participate in the system as it is?
The question isn’t when to consider diversifying your assets, exploring alternative investment strategies, and understanding the risks and rewards of different financial landscapes. The question is: why wait?
The Fed’s quiet adjustment is a wake-up call.
Staying informed, understanding the risks, and taking proactive steps to protect your financial future is no longer a luxury, but a necessity. The time to act is now, before the system’s cracks widen into a chasm.

Notes From the Field By James Hickman (Simon Black) April 1, 2025
Tomorrow is being billed as Liberation Day— where tariffs will supposedly free America from those pesky, parasitic foreign markets.
But what’s actually going to happen?
This is the subject of today’s podcast.
We discuss:
How odd it is that no Liberation Day details have leaked... which makes us wonder if there actually are any plans or details to leak.
If this administration truly believes tariffs are so obviously great for the economy, why would they wait until now instead of doing it day one, as they did with so many other executive actions?
What might actually unfold, and what it means for markets that are already jittery.
Questions any rational investor should ask themselves about their goals— for example, are you speculating on share price, or investing in a company’s long term prospects?
Will tariffs make successful companies immediately and permanently less valuable?
To answer these questions, we bring up examples of well managed, value companies we present to our investment research subscribers, particularly undervalued real asset businesses.
One example’s entire market valuation is less than the cash it has in the bank. Plus it’s profitable and pays a dividend.
Finally, we discuss:
The long shot scenario of what would need to occur for tariffs to actually work as intended.
The very plausible scenario that America could become a manufacturing powerhouse again—not thanks to tariffs, but technology.
The surprising company we identify which likely stands to gain the most from this AI/ automation/ robotics boom.
If tomorrow is “Liberation Day,” then today is the day to be rational.
I encourage you to give it a listen. You can listen in here.

MASTERCARD WORKING ON BLOCKCHAIN TO CONNECT TRADFI AND CRYPTO: REPORT
Mastercard is developing a blockchain-powered Multi-Token Network to connect traditional financial institutions with the digital asset space.
The initiative, led by Raj Dhamodharan, Mastercard’s executive vice president of blockchain and digital assets, aims to provide a compliant, user-friendly experience for moving digital assets, similar to Venmo or Zelle, according to Business Insider
Mastercard is positioning itself as a key infrastructure provider in the growing blockchain ecosystem. By integrating its vast payment network with blockchain technology, the company seeks to enable seamless transactions between fiat and crypto markets.
Dhamodharan highlighted that financial institutions are increasingly interested in blockchain due to its potential to create new business models.
Mastercard partnerships
The network has already secured partnerships with JPMorgan and Standard Chartered, focusing on cross-border payments, tokenized deposits, and carbon credit transactions.
Mastercard has also introduced over 100 crypto-focused card programs worldwide, allowing its 3.5 billion cardholders to interact with digital assets.
Since 2015, Mastercard has filed over 250 blockchain-related patents and backed 43 startups in the sector. Recent collaborations include a November 2024 integration with JPMorgan to improve cross-border settlements and a February 2025 partnership with Ondo Finance to bring institutional financial assets on-chain.
Mastercard’s blockchain expansion comes as U.S. regulators provide more clarity on digital assets, encouraging traditional finance firms to engage with crypto. Dhamodharan believes the company is well-positioned to capitalize on this momentum, leveraging its scale to drive broader blockchain adoption.

UK DIGITAL ASSET EXCHANGE ARCHAX EXPANDS TO US WITH ACQUISITION
UK digital asset exchange Archax has acquired Globacap Private Markets Inc. (Globacap PMI) a US regulated broker dealer and alternative trading system (ATS). It bought the US company from fellow British startup Globacap which provides workflow solutions for private markets and is also active in the digital assets sector.
"The acquisition of Globacap PMI in the US builds on the strong partnership we already have with them in the UK, and is a part of that global strategy," said Graham Rodford, CEO and co-founder of Archax.
“In particular, we want to help support institutional market participants transition from traditional to digital assets and give them the regulated tools and services they need to do that. The US is an enormous and important global market – and with the recent change of government and new, clearer and more open regulated landscape, it is important for firms in our space to have a clear US strategy – and this transaction gives us just that.”
Archax has a multilateral trading facility (MTF) license in the UK and recently acquired a Spanish broker to give it a footprint in the EU. It trades both cryptocurrencies and tokenized securities, targeting institutions. It grabbed headlines when it revealed the big UK asset manager abrdn as an investor in 2022.
To date its tokenization efforts has especially focused on funds, but also bonds and carbon credits. In January it announced plans to tokenize existing equities and government debt so they are usable as DLT-based collateral.

Gold Reset On The Horizon | John Rubino
Liberty and Finance: 3-31-2025
The global economic landscape is anything but tranquil, and in a recent interview with Liberty and Finance, financial expert John Rubino dissected the key factors driving market volatility, from soaring gold prices to the potential for a currency reset and the surprising movements in the silver market.
Rubino offered a stark yet insightful perspective on the interplay between central bank actions, geopolitical tensions, and the surge of retail investors influencing previously established market dynamics.
The surge in gold prices has been a major talking point, and Rubino points a finger directly at central banks as a primary driver. Their voracious appetite for gold, accumulating reserves at an unprecedented pace, is fundamentally altering the supply-demand equation.
This central bank accumulation, often driven by a desire to diversify away from the dollar and hedge against geopolitical risks, adds significant upward pressure on the precious metal. Rubino suggests this trend signifies a growing unease amongst global institutions about the stability of the current financial system, potentially foreshadowing a larger shift.
Beyond central bank buying, Rubino emphasizes the crucial role of geopolitical instability in fueling gold’s rise. From the ongoing conflict in Ukraine to rising tensions in the South China Sea, the global political landscape is fraught with uncertainty. This instability drives investors towards safe-haven assets like gold, further accelerating its upward trajectory.
Rubino doesn’t shy away from discussing the possibility of a currency reset, a scenario where the existing international monetary system undergoes a significant overhaul.
He argues that the unsustainable levels of debt in many developed nations, coupled with geopolitical pressures, could force a realignment of global currencies. In such a scenario, gold would likely play a crucial role as a stabilizing force and a store of value.
The conversation also delves into the often-overlooked silver market, where retail investors have attempted to orchestrate a “squeeze,” aiming to drive up prices by overwhelming short sellers. While the initial attempts saw limited success, Rubino highlights the potential for retail investors to exert increasing influence on market dynamics, particularly in smaller, more volatile markets like silver.
This signals a democratization of investing, where ordinary individuals can collectively challenge established market participants.
Rubino is critical of government interventions in markets, arguing that they often create distortions and unintended consequences. He points to instances where governments have attempted to manipulate currency values or artificially suppress interest rates, arguing that these actions ultimately undermine market efficiency and create long-term instability.
He believes that allowing markets to operate freely, while potentially leading to short-term volatility, is essential for long-term economic health.
The discussion extends beyond the purely financial realm, exploring the evolving political landscape in Europe. Rubino notes the rise of populist movements across the continent, driven by concerns about immigration, economic inequality, and the perceived erosion of national sovereignty.
He suggests that these political shifts could have significant implications for European economies, potentially leading to increased fiscal spending and further instability within the Eurozone.
Finally, Rubino addresses the current state of the real estate market, warning of potential risks amidst rising interest rates and affordability challenges. He suggests that investors should exercise caution and carefully assess the fundamentals of individual markets before making investment decisions. While opportunities may exist, the overall outlook for the real estate market appears less favorable than in recent years.
John Rubino’s insights paint a picture of a global economy facing significant challenges. His analysis underscores the importance of understanding the interplay between central bank actions, geopolitical risks, and market dynamics.
Ultimately, he advocates for a prudent and prepared approach to investing, emphasizing the value of diversification, sound money principles, and a critical assessment of the information driving market narratives. In a world of increasing uncertainty, Rubino’s perspective offers a valuable framework for navigating the turbulent waters ahead.

One central argument revolves around the constitutionality of the IRS and its interpretation of the 16th Amendment. This amendment, ratified in 1913, grants Congress the power to “lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several states, and without regard to any census or enumeration.”
Critics argue that the IRS has overstepped its bounds in interpreting this amendment, leading to an intrusive and overly complicated tax system that exceeds the original intent.
The debate often centers on the terms “External Revenue Service” versus “Internal Revenue Service.” While the latter is the official name, some argue that the IRS’s reach extends beyond purely internal matters, impacting individuals’ economic freedoms and personal liberties in a way that aligns more closely with an “External” revenue agency. This distinction, though subtle, reflects a deeper concern about the agency’s power and scope.
Beyond constitutional and political arguments, some also bring a religious perspective to the debate. While a direct biblical mandate against taxation is difficult to find, proponents of abolishing the IRS often cite passages that emphasize personal responsibility, limited government, and the right to property.
They argue that the IRS’s extensive taxation practices conflict with these principles, hindering individuals’ ability to provide for their families and contribute to their communities.
However, it’s crucial to consider the counter-arguments as well. Proponents of the IRS argue that it is a necessary tool for funding essential government services, such as national defense, infrastructure, and social programs. They argue that without a centralized tax collection agency like the IRS, the government would be unable to fulfill its responsibilities to its citizens. They also point to the potential for increased inequality and social instability if the tax system were dismantled.
Moreover, the complexity of modern society necessitates a sophisticated tax system that can adapt to changing economic realities. Abolishing the IRS, they argue, would create chaos and undermine the financial stability of the nation.
The complexities and nuances of the debate surrounding the IRS are undeniable. It encompasses constitutional interpretations, concerns about individual liberties, and differing perspectives on the role of government. While the call to abolish the IRS may be gaining momentum, it is important to engage with the issue thoughtfully, considering both the potential benefits and the potential consequences of such a radical change.
Ultimately, the future of the IRS and the American tax system will depend on a robust and informed public discourse that weighs the competing perspectives and considers the long-term implications of any proposed reforms. This is a conversation that demands careful consideration and balanced judgment.

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,
US LAWMAKER WILL REINTRODUCE CRYPTO RETIREMENT BILL TO HELP TRUMP AGENDA
Senator Tommy Tuberville introduced the Financial Freedom Act in 2022 and 2023. Both times, the legislation failed to get out of committee.
For the second time, Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville is set to reintroduce a bill aimed at allowing Americans to add cryptocurrency to their retirement savings plans.
Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,
US LAWMAKER WILL REINTRODUCE CRYPTO RETIREMENT BILL TO HELP TRUMP AGENDA
Senator Tommy Tuberville introduced the Financial Freedom Act in 2022 and 2023. Both times, the legislation failed to get out of committee.
For the second time, Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville is set to reintroduce a bill aimed at allowing Americans to add cryptocurrency to their retirement savings plans.
In a March 31 Fox News interview, Tuberville said he planned to reintroduce his “Financial Freedoms Act” legislation after two failed attempts to get the legislation through Congress in 2022 and 2023. In announcing the bill, the Alabama senator said he wanted to help US President Donald Trump’s perceived role as a “crypto president.”
“Give people a chance to breathe for once [...] let them do what they do best [which] is invest their money,” said the senator.
The Financial Freedom Act, which Tuberville first introduced in the US Senate in May 2022, proposed scaling back regulations with the Department of Labor over the types of investments used in 401(k) retirement plan fiduciaries. The senator said he would reintroduce the bill on April 1, but congressional records showed no movement at the time of publication.
Wyoming Senator Cynthia Lummis was a cosponsor of the 2023 bill, but at the time of publication, it was unclear whether she intended to support it again. In a 2022 interview, the Republican senator said she was “very comfortable with making sure that people can include Bitcoin in their retirement funds.”
Crypto legislation in the 119th session of Congress
The crypto retirement bill came as members of the Republican-controlled Congress considered legislation to establish market structure rules for the industry and stablecoin regulations. Proponents of the legislation have suggested that lawmakers get the bills to Trump’s desk to sign into law before the August recess. After that time, they could become more politically charged issues.
On April 1, Florida voters will decide on their House representatives in the state’s 1st and 6th congressional districts. Republicans Jimmy Patronis and Randy Fine have support from the crypto industry through media buys financed by the Defend American Jobs political action committee. As of March 22, the PAC has spent roughly $1.5 million to support the two candidates.

BRICS PRESIDENT EYES INCREASED DE-DOLLARIZATION AS US TRADE WAR LINGERS
The ongoing tensions between BRICS and the United States continue, with the bloc’s 2025 president eyeing increased de-dollarization as a US trade war lingers. Indeed, the West and Global South have been caught in a faceoff regarding the latter’s treatment of the US dollar.
Yet, the bloc has remained steadfast in its commitment to limited exposure and reliance on the greenback. Now, it appears all the more focused on that pursuit amid a plethora of global tariffs levied by an increasingly aggressive Trump Administration.
BRICS Eyeing Increased Local Currency Trade Amid US Tensions
For years, the BRICS bloc has sought to challenge the global status quo. Specifically, it has targeted the continued dominance of the US dollar in economics, with the asset becoming far and away the predominant global reserve currency. However, with the country’s penchant to weaponize the asset, the alliance saw de-dollarization as a method to secure its best interests.
That has drawn the ire of a returning US President Donald Trump, who threatened the bloc with 150% tariffs. With aggressive economic policy becoming a hallmark of the administration, those tensions may only fast-track. Indeed, the BRICS 2025 president is seeking increased de-dollarization amid a brewing US trade war.
The alliance operates on a rotating presidency, with Brazil taking up the mantle this year. According to a recent report, the country is in favor of expanding local currency trade. Indeed, the country’s Secretary of the Finance Ministry, Tatiana Rosito, recently confirmed as much.
“The trade in local currencies is already underway, for example, between Brazil and China,” she said. “No obstacles exist to that on the side of Brazil,” she added. “Therefore, the goal of BRICS is to expand the use of local currencies in any way that will make it possible to reduce costs and will be of interest for association members.”
The questions are, will the act be seen as advancing what is in the best interest of members of the bloc? Or as an affront against the greenback? Indeed, how it is interpreted will be critical in how Trump responds.

APRIL 2: THE DAY THE SYSTEM STARTED TO CRACK …Anon
April 2 is not just a date—it’s a battlefield. In 1792, the Coinage Act established the U.S. dollar, backed by gold and silver. That day, our currency was real—not the garbage fiat they print today. Washington knew what he was doing. He knew freedom required sound money.
Fast-forward to NOW. President Donald J. Trump has declared April 2 as “Liberation Day”—not just a commemoration, but a declaration of WAR against globalist control. This is no coincidence. Trump is sending a message: we’re taking our economy BACK.
Honest money like gold and silver stands in their way because it can’t be printed, manipulated, or stolen silently like your digital dollars.
And now, they want more control. Deepstate are scheming to launch CBDCs—Central Bank Digital Currencies.
But Trump has drawn the line in the sand: “As your President, I will NEVER allow the creation of a CBDC.” He knows what it is: total surveillance and control over your money. One click, and you’re cut off. They’ll own you.
Meanwhile, Putin just dropped a bomb. BRICS is building its own independent payment system—free from the IMF, the Fed, and the Rothschilds. No more dollar. No more Western blackmail. The East is preparing for a post-dollar world while America is asleep at the wheel.
Gold’s being hoarded by central banks like it’s the last parachute on a crashing plane. They KNOW what’s coming. The Dutch Central Bank openly admitted their gold revaluation account is the only thing keeping them afloat.
This isn’t theory. It’s collapse. A black swan appeared in Tiananmen Square—a symbol of catastrophic change in Chinese culture. And guess what? Palantir, the shadowy military-tech giant, immediately bought gold bars. They’re bracing for impact. Are you?

DOGE Investigations:
Mon. 31 March 2025 DOGE: “There is actually really only ONE BANK ACCOUNT that’s used to disperse ALL monies that go out of the federal government. It’s a big one — A couple weeks ago it had $800 billion in it, it’s the treasury general account. We’re serving 580+ agencies. And up until very recently, effectively they could say, make the payment and Treasury just sent it out as fast as possible. NO VERIFICATION. There’s a $500 billion of fraud every year. There’s hundreds of billion dollars of improper payments and we can’t pass an audit. The consolidated financial report is produced by treasury and we cannot pass an audit.” …Julian Assange on Telegram
