Militia Man  My view, parliament will never get anything until after the fact.  Once they expose that exchange rate parliament will finally get [the budget schedules]...The central bank is separate from the government.  That's my opinion.

Wall Street PANICS: Bond Market Collapses as Money Floods Gold [2025]

Daniela Cambone:  4-17-2025

“The secular bull market in bonds, which was in place from 1982 until 2020. That is over,” says Jordan Roy-Byrne, editor and publisher of TheDailyGold.com.

In an interview with Daniela Cambone, he explains that capital is flowing from the bond market into gold. He emphasizes that gold has recently broken out against the traditional 60/40 portfolio (60% stocks, 40% bonds), signaling a major shift in asset preference.

“This is a big sea change compared to the last few years, more money is now going to move out of conventional assets and into gold.”

Roy-Byrne also notes that before gold reaches a new high of $4,000 or more, it could experience a 10% to 12% pullback at some point this year.

 Watch the video now to learn how to capitalize on this “once-in-a-lifetime” gold opportunity.

Key Topics:

 -The gold and silver bull market has just begun.

 -Market corrections are expected in the gold price.

-Retail investors have not yet entered the gold market.

-The significance of gold breaking out against the 60/40 portfolio.

 -Bonds are in a bear market. -“A big sea change” is coming to the bond market.

 -Gold could experience a 10% to 12% pullback before reaching $4,000 or higher.

 -Gold miners are positioned to benefit from rising gold prices.

The Plan to Destroy Dollar and Reset System: Andy Schectman

The Plan to Destroy Dollar and Reset System

Liberty and Finance:  4-16-2025

While the stock market grabs headlines, a silent revolution is happening in the precious metals market. According to Andy Schectman of Miles Franklin, precious metals are quietly surging, with gold potentially hitting a historic high of around $3,300 per ounce.

Yet, this significant milestone is being largely ignored by the mainstream financial media. In a recent interview with Liberty and Finance, Schectman delves into the reasons behind this “stealth rally” and what it might signify for the future of the U.S. dollar.

Schectman argues that the lack of media attention is no accident.

He suggests the U.S. government might be strategically downplaying gold’s rise to pave the way for a drastic devaluation of the dollar, a move that could alleviate the crippling weight of the country’s massive debt.

But who is driving this surge in precious metals? Schectman believes it’s not the average investor. Instead, he points to the “big boys” – central banks, hedge funds, and sovereign wealth funds – as the primary forces behind the gold market’s upward trajectory.

 These institutional investors, with their vast resources and deep understanding of global finance, are strategically positioning themselves for what they foresee as imminent financial instability.

For those looking to protect their wealth and potentially profit from the coming changes, Schectman highlights silver as a particularly compelling opportunity.

 He positions silver as the most undervalued asset class, currently trading at a historically depressed price relative to gold. Investing in silver, he suggests, is a strategic hedge against systemic financial risk and a calculated bet on an eventual correction of the gold-to-silver ratio.

Schectman argues that silver’s undervaluation represents a significant opportunity for investors. He believes that as gold continues its upward trajectory, silver will inevitably follow.

 This is due to its industrial uses, which make it a more versatile commodity than gold, as well as its historical role as a monetary metal.

The implications of Schectman’s analysis are significant. If the U.S. government is indeed considering a dollar devaluation, it could have far-reaching consequences for the global economy. Inflation could skyrocket, eroding the purchasing power of ordinary citizens. Assets denominated in dollars could lose value, while those in alternative currencies or precious metals could see significant gains.

Schectman’s message is a stark warning, but also an opportunity. He encourages investors to take a proactive approach to protecting their wealth by considering precious metals, particularly silver, as a hedge against potential financial turmoil.

While the main stream media may be silent on this shift, the smart money is already making its move. It’s time for individual investors to pay attention to the quiet revolution happening in the precious metals market and consider their own strategies for navigating the uncertain financial landscape ahead.

 Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

RIPPLE VS SEC LAWSUIT UPDATE: 60-DAY COURT PAUSE EXPLAINED

▪️The Ripple-SEC case is paused for 60 days, sparking speculation of behind-the-scenes developments.

▪️A crypto lawyer suggests Ripple and the SEC might be negotiating a settlement and seeking clarity on private token sales.

▪️The case's future hinges on potential agreements, Judge Torres' rulings, and could extend into late 2026 if no deal is reached.

The legal battle between Ripple and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is taking yet another twist. While the U.S. Court of Appeals has agreed to pause the case for 60 days, this has sparked fresh speculation and raised new questions: Is something happening behind the scenes? Could a major shift be coming in one of crypto’s most closely watched legal fights?

Prominent crypto lawyer James Farrell has shared some insights that might offer clues – and they’re worth paying attention to.

Why the Pause?

According to Farrell, this pause may be a sign of major developments ahead. Both Ripple and the SEC asked for the pause together, which suggests they might be working on something behind closed doors.

Farrell says there are two possibilities in play: a potential settlement and an “indicative ruling” from Judge Analisa Torres. Ripple is hoping the judge will allow it to sell private tokens under certain conditions—something it’s currently not allowed to do because of past violations.

If Ripple isn’t allowed to sell tokens privately, it may not be able to go public any time soon. While other crypto companies might move ahead with IPOs, Ripple could be stuck waiting for years before launching its own.

Two Possible Paths Forward

Farrell explains that Ripple and the SEC might be considering two paths:

▪️Settlement Without Rule Change
Ripple could offer a settlement to the SEC. If the SEC accepts the deal but denies Ripple’s request to change the rules, the case would end. However, Ripple would still need Judge Torres to approve the rule change. That process could take another 3 to 6 months – and there’s no guarantee the judge would say yes.

▪️Full Agreement With Rule Change
In this option, the SEC agrees to both the settlement and Ripple’s request. The case would return to Judge Torres, who would then decide how to move forward. But even in this case, it could still take months, depending on how quickly the court acts.

How Soon Could This End?

If Ripple and the SEC reach a full agreement, the appeal could be dismissed as early as next month. But if Ripple has to file separately for rule changes, things could drag on much longer.

If no deal is made at all, the case could go back to the appeals court – possibly stretching the legal battle into late 2026 or even 2027.

The SEC is expected to make its next official move by June 15. Until then, both the crypto world and the legal community will be watching closely to see what happens next.

Ripple’s path forward might be uncertain, but the next few months could shape the future of crypto regulation in a big way.

CARDANO ENTERS BRAZIL THROUGH MAJOR UNIVERSITY COLLABORATION

The Cardano Foundation has formally announced a new partnership with the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro (PUC-Rio), a top-ranked Brazilian university renowned for its contributions to research and development.

The collaboration, revealed on April 15, will concentrate on the advancement and practical application of blockchain technology, specifically within the energy sector in Brazil.

Cardano Partners with Top Brazilian University

PUC-Rio is recognized as one of the top five private universities in the world for excellence in research and development, and it has a broad history of partnerships within the energy industry.

 The establishment of this collaboration follows previous cooperative efforts between PUC-Rio and the Brazilian state-owned enterprise Petrobras, as well as the Cardano Foundation’s own involvement with Petrobras on blockchain-driven initiatives.

Through this new endeavor, PUC-Rio’s Ledger Labs—a research group concentrating on the utilization of DLT in finance and business—will receive support from the Cardano Foundation to explore various aspects of blockchain implementation. 

According to official statements, the initial areas of focus will include blockchain economics, decentralized finance (DeFi), governance of decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs), and digital assets.

“At the core of blockchain advancement are education and innovation. Through our collaboration with esteemed academic institutions like PUC-Rio, the Cardano Foundation ensures that the next generation of developers, industry leaders, and regulators can harness this transformative technology to its fullest potential—creating solutions that address real-world challenges and drive positive global impact,” Cardano Foundation CEO Frederik Gregaard commented.

The immediate emphasis of this alliance will be directed toward developing blockchain-based solutions that enhance production, consumption, and overall value chains in renewable energy fuels. Joint research and pilot projects in cooperation with Petrobras are expected to delve into specific methods of applying Cardano’s blockchain infrastructure to processes such as tracking and verifying energy outputs, optimizing workflows, and ensuring robust data integrity.

Ledger Labs at PUC-Rio will serve as the operational base for these studies. Leonardo Lima, Vice-Dean of the university and head of Ledger Labs, noted that the scope of the partnership will also encompass philanthropic endeavors geared toward social impact.

“Our partnership with the Cardano Foundation marks the beginning of the development of a series of use cases, not only in the energy industry but also in the field of philanthropy, with a focus on social impact projects,” he said.

Beyond the technological and scientific research, the partnership aspires to enrich PUC-Rio’s blockchain ecosystem by hosting joint events, supporting student-led social projects, and inviting other organizations to collaborate on emerging blockchain strategies. 

A significant part of this development will occur through A.L.B.A (Ada Labs for Blockchain Applications), an arm of Ledger Labs that is expected to integrate standards previously introduced at the Universidad Tecnológica Nacional (UTN) in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

The Foundation’s current expansion in Brazil reflects its growing footprint in the region. “Our partnership with PUC-Rio marks the Cardano Foundation’s second collaboration with a Brazilian entity this year. Last month, we announced our partnership with SERPRO, the world’s largest public IT company, and we have been collaborating with Petrobras, Brazil’s state-owned energy company, since 2023,” said Rafael Fraga, LATAM Business Development Lead for the Cardano Foundation.

Tishwash:  Iraqi government banks suspend loans and advances

An informed source stated on Thursday that some government banks, including Rafidain Bank, have suspended granting loans and financial advances to citizens.

The source told Shafaq News Agency, "Some government banks, particularly Rafidain Bank, have stopped granting loans and advances so far, despite the passage of five months of the current fiscal year. Others have issued loans and advances, but on a very limited basis."

He added, "The main reason behind banks' failure to perform their credit role, including granting loans and advances, is the lack of financial allocations."

The source also pointed out that "many citizens have called on Parliament, the Finance Committee, and the government to intervene to release loans, advances, construction loans, and home purchase loans."

Both Rafidain and Rashid Banks provided loans and advances to employees and citizens for various purposes, such as construction, land purchases, car purchases, and other purposes, at a specific interest rate and for a predetermined period.  link

Tishwash:  Reconstruction: World Bank financing of projects will create jobs and support the private sector.

The Ministry of Construction and Housing confirmed on Thursday that the World Bank's facilities will contribute to improving public services in remote and deprived areas, while explaining that the World Bank's financing of projects will create job opportunities and support the private sector.

“The World Bank’s provision of project financing facilities will contribute to expanding the scope of reconstruction with infrastructure services, such as the construction and rehabilitation of water purification plants and sewage treatment plants, as well as road projects, especially in areas that have not been previously implemented and that need these services,” said ministry spokesman Nabil Al-Saffar in an interview followed by “Al-Eqtisad News.” He pointed out that “they contribute to improving public services, especially in remote and deprived areas or those affected by wars and terrorist operations.”

He added, "These projects contribute to creating job opportunities and supporting the private sector by providing financing and supporting economic reforms in the country." He noted that "an agreement was previously concluded between the Iraqi government and the World Bank for Reconstruction and Development in 2015 to reconstruct areas affected by terrorist operations."

He explained that, "according to this agreement, 20 projects were completed, distributed among 20 districts and sub-districts within three governorates (Salah al-Din, Diyala, and Anbar), including the rehabilitation of water and sewage stations, with the number of beneficiaries reaching approximately 3 million people, in addition to a number of projects to equip specialized equipment for the municipal, water, and sewage sectors."  link

He added, "The recent period has witnessed remarkable progress in resolving the issues between Erbil and Baghdad, thanks to the commendable efforts of Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani, which deserve our appreciation." He added, "Al-Sudani's vision of strengthening commonalities and reducing differences is the correct vision for a solution, and I emphasize here the urgent implementation of the property restitution law and the activation of the committee to implement Article 140 of the Iraqi Constitution."

Nechirvan Barzani stressed that "we will continue constructive dialogue with the federal government to reach permanent solutions to all problems in a way that serves the interests of Iraq, with all its components, and guarantees and secures the constitutional rights and entitlements of all."

He stressed that "the Kurdistan Parliament must be activated in light of the current circumstances and challenges in the region. Therefore, the primary task of the Kurdistan Democratic Party, the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan, and the winning parties in the Kurdistan Parliament elections is to expedite the formation of the new government cabinet for the Kurdistan Region, and for it to be a government that responds to the aspirations of the citizens and is capable of dealing appropriately with developments and challenges."  link

Mnt Goat  ...No one knows the date of the RV...Our RV is coming but it is all attached to the reinstatement back to FOREX. This is a byproduct of all the reforms.  Iraq is now being methodically pieced back together and the goal is to have a booming economy...My guess, and this is ONLY a guess is that when this Iranian issue is resolved we can expect wonderful things to occur.

Militia Man  They’re waiting for government submission.  That’s when showtime happens as far as I’m concerned.  The government, to me, will not expose the budget tables without being ready for inter-connectivity to the international financial system.  That’s my belief.  With all the things that were on the table…oil, non-oil revenues, Iraqi Stock Exchange, international exchange in dinar for cross border payments outside the dollar, it probably won’t happen.  I’m not saying it’s not going to happen I’m just saying they got to do this for it to happen…I can clearly see why the budget schedules are apparently…’delayed’.  I think it’s not delayed.  I think they’re ready to go, have been ready to go…for well over a month or more.  They just haven’t exposed that yet.  Why?  Because of timing and inter-connectivity.

SEC VS RIPPLE UPDATE: MOTION TO TEMPORARILY SUSPEND APPEAL GRANTED; WHAT NEXT FOR XRP PRICE?

▪️Closing the four-year legal battle opens a new chapter for XRP mainstream adoption, catalyzed by Ripple Labs’ payment products.

▪️XRP price must hold above the support level of about $2 to invalidate further market correction.

The Donald Trump administration has gradually fulfilled its promises made during the campaign period to the crypto ecosystem. The successful replacement of Gary Gensler with crypto-friendly SEC chair Paul Atkins has helped expedite the closure of several web3-related cases, including against Ripple and Binance exchange.

SEC vs Ripple Case Update

Earlier on Wednesday during the mid-North American trading session, James K Filan, a prominent defense lawyer, released court documents dated April 16 regarding the SEC vs Ripple appeal.

According to the court documents, Circuit Judge José A. Cabrenas granted a joint motion, filed by the U.S. SEC and Ripple to temporarily suspend their appeals amid the case closure.

“The parties jointly move to hold this appeal in abeyance, with the U.S. SEC directed to file a status report within 60 days of this order,” the court order noted.

Meanwhile, Ripple Labs agreed to pay a $50 million fine to settle the longstanding case.

XRP Price Analysis

After closing the first quarter in bearish sentiment, XRP has attempted to regain a bullish outlook in the past few weeks. The large-cap altcoin, with a fully diluted valuation of about $206 billion and a 24-hour average volume of about $3.45 billion, has been forming a potential reversal pattern in the daily timeframe.

The XRP price, against the U.S. dollar, has formed a possible inverse head and shoulders pattern, coupled with a bullish divergence of the daily Relative Strength Index (RSI). As a result, if the XRP price holds above the support level of around $2 and remains above the YTD falling logarithmic trend, a target of between $2.8 and $3 will be achievable.

PANAMA CITY TO ACCEPT CRYPTO FOR PUBLIC SERVICES

Panama City Mayor has said the Panama District municipality will become the first in the nation to accept cryptocurrency payments for services, following unanimous approval by the City Council.

Unanimous Approval

The Panama City Mayor Mayer Mizrachi announced on April 15 that the Panama District municipality will become the first in the nation to accept cryptocurrency as a form of payment for services. The decision follows a unanimous approval by the City Council.

According to Mizrachi, the new payment system will operate through an authorized bank that will handle the conversion of cryptocurrency payments into U.S. dollars for the Mayor’s Office. 

This mechanism aims to streamline the process and mitigate potential volatility associated with digital assets for the municipality’s finances.

“My dear City Council has unanimously approved an initiative initiated by the Mayor’s Office, which will allow all citizens to pay their obligations and taxes in crypto,” Mizrachi explained, highlighting the significance of this decision.

The mayor further stated that Panama, often considered Central America’s financial hub, was lagging behind in adopting this modern payment method. 

He clarified the legal framework, stating, “Legally, it’s simple: the Mayor’s Office receives dollars, but there’s an intermediary who receives the crypto, transforms it into dollars, and takes it to the Mayor’s Office.”

Mizrachi indicated that a formal announcement with further details will be made once the agreement with the partnering bank is finalized. He emphasized the broader implications of this decision, stating, “This allows for the free movement of cryptocurrencies throughout the economy and throughout government.”

Besides positioning itself as Latin America’s crypto hub, Panama introduced a draft bill aiming to regulate cryptocurrencies and establish a legal framework for blockchain-based services. The bill outlines licensing requirements for Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs) to register with Panama’s Financial Analysis Unit (UAF) and adhere to know your customer and anti-money laundering regulations.

If passed, this legislation could provide greater legal clarity and consumer protection while fostering innovation in Panama’s digital economy.

Scott Bessent Talks about the Trade War and a Strong Dollar

Scott Bessent Talks about the Trade War and a Strong Dollar

Arcadia Economics:  4-15-2025

US Secretary of Treasury, Scott Bessent, appeared on Fox Business News to provide an update on the ongoing trade war and discuss the state of the dollar. Bessent, who served as the Chief Investment Officer for Soros Fund Management before joining the Trump Administrtion, is a respected voice in the financial world.

During the interview, Bessent discussed the administration’s stance on tariffs and the trade war. He reiterated the administration’s belief that tariffs are an effective tool in negotiating better trade deals for the United States.

Bessent noted that the tariffs have led to increased revenue for the US government and have helped to reduce the trade deficit.

However, Bessent also acknowledged that tariffs can have a negative impact on businesses and consumers, particularly if they lead to retaliation from other countries. He stated that the administration is committed to finding a resolution to the trade war that is beneficial for all parties involved.

Bessent also addressed the issue of the strong dollar, which has been a topic of concern for some investors. He noted that a strong dollar is generally a positive sign for the US economy, as it indicates confidence in the country’s economic outlook.

However, he also acknowledged that a strong dollar can make US exports more expensive and less competitive in global markets.

Bessent stated that the administration is monitoring the situation closely and is working to ensure that the strong dollar does not hinder the competitiveness of US businesses. He noted that the administration is committed to implementing policies that support economic growth and job creation, which will in turn help to strengthen the dollar.

Overall, Bessent’s comments provide a nuanced view of the administration’s stance on tariffs and the strong dollar. While the administration believes that tariffs can be an effective negotiating tool, it also recognizes the potential negative impacts of tariffs and is committed to finding a resolution to the trade war. Similarly, while the administration views a strong dollar as a positive sign for the US economy, it is also taking steps to ensure that the strong dollar does not harm the competitiveness of US businesses.

Investors will no doubt be watching the situation closely, as the outcome of the trade war and the strength of the dollar can have significant implications for financial markets.

However, with a seasoned financial expert like Scott Bessent leading the charge, the administration is well-positioned to navigate these complex issues and ensure the long-term success of the US economy.

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

OKLAHOMA KILLS BITCOIN RESERVE PROPOSAL IN SENATE COMMITTEE VOTE

Oklahoma’s attempt to become one of the first U.S. states to implement a Bitcoin reserve has come to an abrupt end.

In a tight 6-5 vote on Monday, the Senate Revenue and Taxation Committee struck down House Bill 1203, also called the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Act, despite late momentum and a surprise vote reversal from Sen. Christi Gillespie.

Gillespie, who had planned to vote no “up until this afternoon,” changed her mind after “a couple of constituents” reached out.

"A lawmaker changed their ‘No’ vote to a ‘Yes’ because they heard from their Bitcoiner constituents!" tweeted Dennis Porter, CEO and co-founder of Satoshi Action Fund, urging Bitcoin reserve advocates to keep pressure on legislators. “Your voice matters!”

Still, the effort fell short in Oklahoma. The "no" votes came from Republican Senators Todd Gollihare, Chuck Hall, Brent Howard, and Dave Rader, along with Democrats Julia Kirt and Mark Mann.

Sen. Christi Gillespie voted YES on Oklahoma's Bitcoin Reserve Bill.

She states that "up until this afternoon", she was going to vote no.

However, she was convinced to vote yes by "a couple of constituents" that reach out and persuaded her.

Introduced by Rep. Cody Maynard in January, HB1203 would have allowed Oklahoma’s state treasurer to invest in Bitcoin and other qualifying digital assets, defined as any with a market capitalization above $500 billion for the past year. At present, only Bitcoin meets that threshold.

An earlier committee passed the bill in February by a wide 12–2 margin, setting up Monday’s high-stakes showdown.

State Bitcoin reserve efforts

With Oklahoma now out of the picture, New Hampshire, Texas, and Arizona have emerged as the top contenders in the race to become the first U.S. state to establish a strategic Bitcoin reserve.

It also marks the latest blow to such proposals, following recent rejections in Montana, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, and Wyoming.

Meanwhile, on April 10, New Hampshire’s House passed HB302, a bill permitting up to 10% of the state’s general fund to be invested in Bitcoin and precious metals. The 192-179 vote sends the bill to the Senate for further consideration.

On the same day as New Hampshire’s vote, Florida’s House Insurance and Banking Committee unanimously passed HB487, which would allow up to 10% of certain state funds to be invested in Bitcoin.

Arizona, meanwhile, continues to lead in terms of legislative momentum. On March 24, the state’s House Rules Committee approved two complementary bills, SB1373 and SB1025, that proposed the Arizona State Treasurer invest public funds in Bitcoin.

The bills now await a full floor vote in the House. If they pass, the legislation will head to Governor Katie Hobbs for final approval.

On March 6, the Texas Senate passed SB-21, a Bitcoin strategic reserve bill, in a 25–5 vote after a contentious debate on the Senate floor.

At the moment, 47 State Bitcoin Reserve (SBR) bills have been introduced across 26 states, with 40 active bills still live in 20 states, as per the reserve tracker Bitcoin Laws’ data.

China is doing everything possible to advance the de-dollarization agenda and dim the lights on the US economy. BRICS members China and Russia recently sidelined the US dollar to settle oil and gas payments in 2025. The development adds pressure on the US economy as developing nations are using new modes of payment and not the dollar.

Reducing dependency on the US dollar will lead to the currency facing deficits and bring inflation into the homeland. The USD needs to maintain its demand and supply mechanism in the forex markets and failing to do so can bring its doom.

BRICS: China & Russia Settle Oil Trade in New Currency

Trillion-dollar asset management firm VanEck recently confirmed that BRICS members China and Russia have settled oil payments using the leading cryptocurrency Bitcoin. This is a major step in advancing the de-dollarization agenda where the US dollar had a command in the oil and gas industry. “China and Russia have reportedly begun settling some energy transactions in Bitcoin and other digital assets,” wrote VanEck.

VanEck also wrote that the new payment method using BTC for oil settlement “might be bullish for Bitcoin.” BRICS members China and Russia could usher into a new era where Bitcoin is the new payment method and not the US dollar.

The trillion-dollar management firm noted that even Bolivia is following the route of using cryptocurrencies for trade and transactions. “Bolivia has announced plans to import electricity using crypto. And French energy utility EDF is exploring whether it can mine Bitcoin with surplus electricity currently exported to Germany,” they wrote.

De-dollarization is now a major concern as the White House has imposed tariffs on over 185 countries. However, the Trump administration has now announced a 90-day pause in tariffs but the damage has already been done. The BRICS bloc is now more focused on bringing the US dollar down by not using it for oil transactions.

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

2 MAJOR KEY EVENTS ON APRIL 16: RIPPLE VS SEC SETTLEMENT AND POWELL’S SPEECH IMPACTING CRYPTO ASSETS

April 16, 2025 – Today marks a potentially pivotal moment in the crypto market as two high-stakes events unfold: the long-awaited conclusion of the Ripple vs SEC lawsuit and a key speech by Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. Together, these developments could significantly influence investor sentiment and shape the near-term direction of crypto assets.

Ripple vs SEC lawsuit Update

After nearly a decade of legal wrangling, the Ripple vs SEC case may finally be over. April 16 was Ripple’s final deadline to file its appellate brief. With no extension granted, the only options were to either submit the filing or reach a settlement.

Sources close to the matter suggest that a settlement has been reached between Ripple and the SEC. As part of the reported agreement, the SEC has dropped its appeal, while Ripple has agreed to pay a $50 million fine and also withdraw its own counter-appeal.

Crucially, there will be no official declaration labeling XRP as a security, which many in the XRP community view as a significant win for the cryptocurrency.

According to Attorney Fred Rispoli on X, Ripple has only two options by April 16. He explained that Ripple cannot ask for more time, so they have only two options. Either they go ahead and file their appeal, which he believes has just a 10% chance, or they announce a settlement or withdrawal, which he thinks is much more likely, with a 90% chance.

 FED Chair Jerome Powell’s Speech

Later today, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell is set to deliver a speech at the Economic Club of Chicago. With U.S. inflation easing and election-year pressure building, Powell’s comments may hint at the Fed’s outlook on future rate cuts.

The market currently expects:

▪️Two rate cuts in 2025

▪️Possibly starting in June or September

However, Powell has repeatedly emphasized caution, citing persistent inflation risks and global uncertainty.A dovish or hawkish tone could significantly influence Bitcoin, altcoins like XRP, and broader equity markets.

SOUTH KOREAN PRESIDENTIAL CONTENDER VOWS TO PUSH CRYPTO 'AS MUCH AS' TRUMP: REPORT

▪️South Korea’s presidential primary candidate for the right-wing party said he would reform crypto regulations “as much as” the Trump administration.

▪️He also vowed to increase investment into other disruptive technologies, including AI.

A candidate in the South Korean right-wing party's presidential primary pledged to revamp local regulations on blockchain and cryptocurrencies, according to local news agency Yonhap.

"To foster blockchain and virtual assets as an industry, I will reform regulations as much as the Trump administration in the United States," Hong Joon-pyo, a candidate for People Power Party's presidential primary, said during a policy announcement meeting on Wednesday, according to the report.

Hong, who served as mayor of Daegu city up until last week, said that he would work to incorporate blockchain technology into the public sector and administrative services.

Outside of blockchain and crypto, Hong also pledged to invest at least 50 trillion Korean won ($35.1 billion) over five years in research and development for AI, quantum technology and room-temperature superconductors, the report said, as part of his "growth driven by disruptive tech" initiative.

The prominent politician, with nearly 30 years of experience, had previously urged the South Korean government to adopt friendlier policies and regulations on crypto.

In 2021, Hong openly criticized the government's decision to tax cryptocurrency at the time, labeling the move retrogressive and urging the establishment of legal foundations to institutionalize emerging technologies, according to local news outlet Financial News.

South Korea's 20th President, Yoon Suk-yeol, was removed from office on April 4 after the Constitutional Court unanimously upheld the National Assembly's impeachment vote, prompted by his controversial declaration of martial law on Dec. 3, 2024.

With the June 3 presidential election less than two months away, neither of the two major political parties has yet nominated its candidate.

Hong is among eight candidates vying for the People Power Party's nomination. Meanwhile, Yoon's impeachment has given the opposition Democratic Party of Korea an advantage heading into the upcoming election.

Tishwash:  Oil Price Reset in Budget" Bloomberg: Salaries in Iraq Under "Pressure"

 Bloomberg , the international economic network, revealed today, Tuesday, April 15, 2025, the existence of what it described as "Iraqi government efforts" to reset the price of a barrel of oil in the 2025 budget, after it lost about 13% of its total value during the current month as a result of fears of an economic recession following the trade war declared by US President Donald Trump.

The network reported, as translated by Baghdad Today, that Iraqi officials confirmed to it that the government is currently considering "resetting the price of a barrel of oil" in the remaining 2025 budget, with the aim of determining the government's ability to cover operating costs, most importantly salaries, based on the new oil prices.

She continued, "The decline in oil prices places additional pressure on countries that rely on oil for their revenues, especially Iraq, which relies almost entirely on oil revenues to cover its operating budget and finance the reconstruction of its infrastructure destroyed by years of war."

The network also noted that adjusting the price of a barrel of oil in the budget will help the Iraqi government develop a realistic picture of its ability to cover operating costs, in addition to exploring ways to reduce spending as global prices continue to decline.  link

Sat. 12 April 2025: DOSSIER: THE SIGNAL THEY WON’T NAME – Inside the Tier 1 Blueprint for a Silent $500 Trillion Reset as Global Financial Realignment Is Already in Motion

Sat. 12 April 2025: CLASSIFIED MILITARY INTEL: STARLINK, QFS, GESARA — GLOBAL DEFENSE & FINANCE UNDER STRATEGIC RESET

Global Currency Reset:

Tues. 15 April 2025 Bruce: (RUMORS)

Tier4b didn’t go today because three states Maryland, California, Mass and some Asian countries had banks that didn’t want to comply and get into the QFS system. If the banks don’t comply by tomorrow they will be sold.

Today President Trump had a closed meeting with Tier 1 Banks at Mar a Largo. He told them the Iraqi Dinar has revalued in Iraq at an international rate at a little over $6. It will trade up, plus have a Contract Rate. The banks are ready for us. The Dinar went live today and will be exchanged within 48 hours.

There are 5 crypto coins that are gold backed.

Tier4b (us, the Internet Group) could get notified tomorrow or Thursday.

DOGE payments will also start this week.

The R&R will be in accounts at the Redemption Centers.

17 currencies are going up in value. The Dinar, Dong, Bolivar are going up substantially ($4-$7 for Bolivar).

Tues. 15 April 2025 Global Currency Reset …EBS Activated With Trump on Telegram

Sat. 12 April 2025 The U.S. just triggered the Global Currency Reset (GCR) and the Revaluation (RV), shattering the corrupt system that’s enslaved the world for decades.

On Fri. 11 April 2025 a classified Tier 1 operation quietly began. A financial i*******n of $500 trillion is now moving through the global system through perfectly timed veils of tariffs.

Trump’s trade war was about taking down the rigged currency game. The U.S. Trade Representative is now enforcing currency revaluations as part of new deals. No more mamipulation. No more fake valuations. No more China cheating the dollar.

The Federal Reserve plans to print $9.5 trillion to buy out global gold. But the moment they move, the dollar hits ZERO. Gold will shoot to infinity.

Inside the Tier 1 Blueprint for a Silent $500 Trillion Reset as Global Financial Realignment Is Already in Motion

Over $500 trillion in frozen or hidden assets is now being introduced back into circulation under humanitarian cover. This structure prevents manipulation, bypasses corruption, and protects the mission: 80% of the funds directed toward humanitarian infrastructure, 1% for logistical discretion, and 19% anchored in U.S. Treasury bonds to stabilize the sovereign narrative and avoid inflationary shocks.

Tariffs provide the smokescreen. Governments declare economic wins as hidden financial pathways quietly funnel resources through redemption frameworks unknown to the public.

This operation will never be called a reset. It will be labeled as “liquidity flow alignment,” “sovereign debt stabilization,” or “post-pandemic optimization.” But make no mistake: this is a reverse-engineered correction of economic plunder. The theft of wealth, time, and global potential is being quietly reversed—without ever admitting the theft occurred.

Tues. 15 April 2025 QFS GLOBAL TAKEOVER: 209 NATIONS. 97 OF TOP 100 BANKS. IT’S HAPPENING. …Carolyn Bessette Kennedy on Telegram

Boom. What we’ve been warning about is now undeniable. The Quantum Financial System (QFS) is no longer a theory. It’s rolling out—right now.

97 out of the world’s top 100 central banks are in the middle of a silent transformation. Not tomorrow. Now. They’re being hardwired into the QFS + RTGS architecture—the final phase before full activation.

What does this mean? It means the current monetary regime—the fiat parasite system run by Deepstate bankers—is being dismantled. Fast. Quiet. Global.

An inside source from military intelligence confirms:

179+ central banks are either already linked or in the final stages of integration. Another 80 regional banks are next. That’s 209 total. The entire planet is being absorbed into a new digital command grid—not controlled by governments, but by something far more powerful.

This isn’t about “faster payments.” It’s about total surveillance. Total control. Total reset. No transaction left unseen. No asset left untagged. The financial panopticon has arrived.

Banks involved include: People’s Bank of China – $5.1T assets, Bank of Japan – $5.2T assets, Deutsche Bundesbank – $2T assets, Bank of England – $758B assets, Swiss National Bank, Reserve Bank of India, Bank of France, Bank of Italy — all are in. Even the Federal Reserve regional branches in the U.S. are locked in.

Why aren’t you hearing this on the news? Because once the public connects the dots, it’s over. This isn’t just a financial shift—this is the backbone of the New World order.

The RTGS system ensures real-time, unstoppable transactions. Combine it with QFS and you get a weaponized, blockchain-driven grid with the power to erase wealth, deny access, or approve purchases—based on your compliance.

Gold-backed currencies. Centralized digital IDs. Total obedience. The BIS, IMF, and WEF want one network to rule them all.

This is the storm. If your country’s bank is on that list, you’re already in the system.

Frank26  Security and stability, do we have it?  Seems like it because the whole place is beautiful.  But where is the problem?  Where's the origin of the lack of security and stability?  The answer is Iran...We know the problem is Iran and we know once they are under control, we have security and stability for that new exchange rate to come out.  Can it come out right now?  Yes.  But you said we're waiting for security and stability.  I believe we are very well secured and stable with the 9th floor of the CBI.

Militia Man  Iraq doesn't have a whole lot of purchasing power at 1310.  But they have an expectation of purchasing power...The deletion of the zeros project is definitely on their minds, especially the tribal leaders in Iraq, which includes politicians.  They're concerned about the deletion of the zeros project but they're fully aware of it and that's where the purchasing power is.  The average guy on the street doesn't have a whole of dinars.  They want purchasing power because they want prices to come down so they can afford to live.  The wealthy, tribal leaders perhaps, have a lot of cash and they put that cash in the banks.  They think they could get more money in and out of the country...Those folks over there are concerned about their purchasing power.
