Good Morning Dinar Recaps,
The economic and political conditions of a country can also cause a currency's value to fluctuate. While investors enjoy high-interest rates, they also value the predictability of an investment. This is why currencies from politically stable and economically sound countries generally have higher demand, which, in turn, leads to higher exchange rates.

Big money is dropping out of their long positions in the market right now.
This is usually an indication that volatility is ahead and the movement into day trading will be more profitable since they can move in and out of positions quicker.
This is expected due to the fact that we are beginning our transition from an Old Market to a New Digital one.

Let's take a closer look at what's about to happen in 2024. The banking system is going to pull money from the future into the now.
What that means is a lot of money is tied up in crypto investments inside the new digital economy by institutions, governments, whales, and people like you and me.

This reintegration into the new digital economy will create volatility for some assets to the upside and to the downside. If you are inside the right assets, you will be fine.
It all begins in 2024. If you are not in a good position, be ready to change as soon as you can. Many of the assets we have discussed in this room are good positions. Even though I can't recommend any of them, I have talked about them.
Our transition into the new economy has been going on for some time through new legislative bills turning into laws to govern them, and the banking system is about to synchronize with these markets inside a gold standard position that will cause fluctuations across ALL markets.
This will take some time in 2024 to make these transitions convert over into a new digital economy, price changes on everything is expected to happen.

Watch what happens with the new spot Bitcoin ETF. This is a very protected asset. Look at the companies that are wrapping their assets to it. They are well known and well flushed with money.
These companies know that Bitcoin is going to grow exponentially in 2024 and 25. It is the top asset and bridge into the digital economy.
Countries around the world are doing the same with their spot Bitcoin ETF. This is why there are meetings these past two weeks before early 2024 begins to prepare for this transition.
Gold is the underlying support asset that will make all of this possible giving real value to all of our assets and standardizing digital protocols to level the playing field among countries around the world.

"India's first-ever payment in rupees for crude oil purchased from the UAE is helping the world's third largest energy consumer push for taking the local currency globally, as it looks for similar deals with other suppliers, officials said, adding internationalization is a process and there are no targets."
The Indian Rupee is taking their local currency global along with other countries starting the first week of January 2024.
They will be trading with countries like the US, Indonesia, Vietnam, Iraq, and more.
Each of these countries has the support of gold to back their currencies going forward through Basel 3, of which, the US will begin implementing theirs on January the 16th, 2024. The rest of the list above have already started this process.
These newly implemented changes inside the new digital asset-based trading system will put price pressures on gold to support these new assets. Look for gold to be transitioning to a real value very soon to meet these new demands.
All roads lead to gold, and gold will set us free.

More News, Rumors and Opinions Thursday Afternoon 12-21-2023
KTFA:
FCH1962: Frank, so you said the other night on your Utube 'Bank Story' phone call that you knew about this daily $5000.00 increment amount, but never wanted to discuss it with us? Even as you were telling the viewers that "You are Mr Clampet, and they're Mr. Drysdale". What was the reason for that? So, Capital Controls on people's money isn't a big deal to you! Am I going to be 'Kicked Off' for this question? I'd like to hear an explanation... This is a sincere question!
HarleyQuinC3: These employees are going by Chase’s current foreign exchange policy that’s in place for customers travelling to other countries.
When I travel overseas, I notify my bank of what currency I need. It takes a few days and they get up to $5,000 worth of pounds, for example, for when I go to England. They do it in $5,000 increments because there’s a special form that has to be filled out for transactions over $10,000.
When I come back and convert the leftover pounds back into dollars, it works the same way, if I pull out cash there’s a $5,000 limit. Digital deposit can be higher amounts (I’ve personally never done one for more than £15,000), but basically it’s just to control the amount of paper cash going in and out of the branch.

HarleyQuinC3 cont…….: Chase DOES charge a fee for this, anywhere from 1-5% depending on the amount, it’s usually right about 3%. This is their fee for offering the exchange service.
With that said, and IMO, this kind of exchange post-RI, will be treated as a special case. You won’t be dealing with a teller at the desk. It will be a pre-arranged appointment and they’ll do all the FinCen forms there.
I believe that’s why the wealth manager in Virginia mentioned he was waiting for ‘instructions’ on how to do the RI exchanges. It’ll be a special event.
I have talked to my private banker, Jose, here in Texas. He told me they would charge a flat $350 fee and exchange all at once. It will be a pending transaction for a couple of business days, and there will be limits on what can be spent till the transaction resolves.
He told me he thought it would take about an hour and a half to do the whole process, because they’ll be opening several holding accounts, which take a bit of time. Again, that’s just IMO based on what Chase told me.
Oh, and concerning the spread, Jose told me it WAS negotiable depending on how much money I left with Chase’s wealth management department. He said it might be waived entirely if I used their management services solely. In other words, it would be possible to negate the 3% (ish) spread if I left the money with Chase. Again IMO.
ToyVP: MAYBE I CAN HELP SHED A LITTLE LIGHT ON THAT SUBJECT, FOR "CASHING OUT" THEY CAN ONLY DO SO MUCH AT A TIME FOR SEVERAL REASONS.........
1) THEY DON'T CARRY THAT MUCH CASH AT BANKS ANYMORE SO THEY HAVE TO PUT IN A REQUEST FOR TRANSFERS TO THEM SO THEY CAN ACCOMODATE IT.............
2) THE FEDERAL RESERVE HAS PUT A LIMIT ON HOW MUCH CASH CAN BE REMOVED FROM YOUR ACCOUNT PER DAY..........................
.BUT TO EXCHANGE AND DEPOSIT IT INTO YOUR ACCOUNT IS NO BIG DEAL THEY WILL BE ABLE TO DO THAT IN THE SAME DAY "IMO" I HOPE THIS HELPS

Robert Lambourne: Why Is The BIS Doing Gold Swaps
Arcadia Economics: 12-20-2023
There's a corner of the gold market that gets very little coverage, as for years the The Bank for International Settlements (the BIS) has been conducting gold swaps.
Although as you may well have guessed, they're rarely very public about the motive behind the swaps or why they are being used.
Fortunately there's an analyst named Robert Lambourne who has been tracking their activity, and today he joins me on the show to explain what's being done with these swaps and why they are taking place.

"Swap data reporting is a US obligation on swap dealers and end-users to report over-the-counter derivatives transactions to swap data repositories. Reportable derivatives include “swaps” – defined as interest rate swaps, foreign exchange swaps and forwards, index-based credit default swaps, agricultural and commodity swaps, index-based total return swaps and all options based on a rate or commodity – and “security-based swaps."
So there we have it, swap data reporting as required by the "CFTC Approves Rule to Allow UPI Use in Swaps Reporting." The UPI mechanism for trading includes countries such as a Iraq, Indonesia, Vietnam, the US, and more.
The use of the UPI in the reporting of OTC derivatives (foreign currency exchanges) in the US will start on 29 January 2024. Everything will be recorded and reported in the new system.
Amazingly, this start date is just one day before Protocol 20 is voting to move forward with the new digital economy that unites all Quantum Technologies around the world through the Stellar Network.

The Common Domain Model (CDM) is a standardized, machine-readable and machine-executable mechanism.
This mechanism is what will move the financial products through electronic trades designed to complete transactions on both sides of a trade.
The CDM is being implemented early 2024 to automate trades and clearing them through electronic measures designed to move transactions inside new Quantum Technologies.
It is move from paper and pen to automatic computations run on the QFS.
The Repo Market is a repurchase agreement that fills 1 to 2 trillion dollars worth of trades each and every day. These are short-term executions of trade often done for government securities, but many banks can often use it in making investment conversions from a centralized location or electronic mechanism that is capable of handling trades between institutions.
The Repo Market has been slow to comply to the standardization process of the QFS. Now, they have been given the green light to move forward with these new changes.

The IMF just recently ended their latest consultation with Iraq. They have been given a year-long assessment of their findings and follow-up procedures regarding their new economic reforms enacted earlier this year of 2023.
At this time, they have been given the green light to do the following:
"passthrough from the exchange rate revaluation"
Let's take a closer view as to what this means. "Exchange-rate pass-through (ERPT) is a measure of how responsive international prices are to changes in exchange rates. Formally, exchange-rate pass-through is the elasticity of local-currency import prices with respect to the local-currency price of foreign currency."
Let's put this in more simple terms. Iraq is about to allow the markets to determine their new exchange rates. And, they are about to execute this new declaration beginning the first of January in 2024 in the use of Dinar currency only in International trade.
Watch the water.

Why This Boring, 5,000 Year Old Metal Could Become the Next Hot Commodity
Why This Boring, 5,000 Year Old Metal Could Become the Next Hot Commodity
Notes From the Field By Simon Black December 14, 2023
Over four thousand years ago in the early 2200s BC, the most dominant superpower in the world was the Akkadian Empire. The Akkadian Empire had conquered all of ancient Mesopotamia and brought the neighboring kingdoms under its control.
And the Emperor at the time, a man named Rimush, wanted to demonstrate to the world just how wealthy and powerful his Akkadian Empire truly was.
So he commissioned a statue to be built— a statue of himself, obviously. And he had it made from the most valuable substance in the world. But Rimush’s monument wasn’t made of gold. Or even silver.
Why This Boring, 5,000 Year Old Metal Could Become the Next Hot Commodity
Notes From the Field By Simon Black December 14, 2023
Over four thousand years ago in the early 2200s BC, the most dominant superpower in the world was the Akkadian Empire. The Akkadian Empire had conquered all of ancient Mesopotamia and brought the neighboring kingdoms under its control.
And the Emperor at the time, a man named Rimush, wanted to demonstrate to the world just how wealthy and powerful his Akkadian Empire truly was.
So he commissioned a statue to be built— a statue of himself, obviously. And he had it made from the most valuable substance in the world. But Rimush’s monument wasn’t made of gold. Or even silver.
Thousands of years ago, the most valuable resource in the world was actually tin... as in tin foil.
This was a period in history known as the Bronze Age, a point where ancient civilizations had grasped a basic knowledge of metallurgy.
Rather than use stone tools, people discovered that they could smelt copper with tin, and the resulting metal— bronze— was a very sturdy fit for tools, weapons, and building material.
Copper was incredibly abundant, and many copper mines existed in the ancient world. But tin was scarce, especially among proto-European and near-East civilizations.
Miners had to travel a very long way— to the mountains of Afghanistan, or across the British Isles, to find tin. And its scarcity made it extremely valuable.
Tin mines became critical assets. Tin trade routes became strategic resources worth fighting over. In fact it’s possible that the legendary Trojan War may have actually been fought over the tin trade.
So you can understand why it was such a tremendous show of wealth when Emperor Rimush chose to make a statue of himself out of tin.
Human civilization obviously progressed beyond the Bronze Age and eventually learned how to forge iron and steel, so tin became almost forgotten.
Yet surprisingly tin is still quite a critical metal today. In fact its most important use is in solder on electronic circuit boards. Literally every circuit, whether in an iPhone or standard kitchen toaster, contains tin; tin is effectively the glue that binds electron pathways and circuit components together.
But we’re talking very small amounts; every single iPhone, for example, contains just a couple grams of tin— which costs only a few pennies.
Think about that – in order to sell a $1000+ product, Apple requires a few pennies worth of tin. This makes tin extremely important… yet very cheap relative to its importance.
It also means that tin prices could skyrocket 5x, and Apple probably wouldn’t even notice.
Yet for tin producers, a 5x increase in prices would have them ROLLING in profits.
And this is what’s so interesting about tin. It’s not sexy. It’s a mostly forgotten metal. And as a result, there are only a handful of companies in the world that mine it.
Yet with so many more electronics being produced... much of this as a result of the AI revolution... tin supply is actually starting to dwindle.
Back during the Cold War in the 1950s, the US government actually stockpiled tin in an attempt to corner the market and prevent the Soviets from making advanced electronics.
The US didn’t really need all that tin at the time... so for the past several decades, the electronics industry has been slowly drawing down that stockpile.
Tin production also slowed down; after all, why bother with the expense of mining tin when the US government was selling off its stockpiles?
But now the stockpiles are almost gone. And yet tin production is still down... while demand (because of the booming electronics industry) is soaring.
All these conditions create a strong likelihood that tin prices could rise dramatically.
In fact a study conducted by MIT showed that tin was the metal most likely to be impacted by the advent of new generation technologies such as robotics, electric vehicles and AI.
It’s crazy to think about that a forgotten metal that hasn’t been ‘important’ for literally thousands of years since the end of the Bronze Age could stand to benefit the most from the AI boom.
And again, there are only a handful of tin suppliers in the world who mine the stuff. So they could really make a killing.
We recently sent some research to our premium members, for example, about a tin producer that already generates solid profits based on where tin prices are right now. They also pay a great dividend, and could even turn a profit if tin prices were to plummet.
But if tin prices soar, this company (which also has a great balance sheet) could see a dramatic rise in its profitability and value.
I write a lot about the importance of owning real assets, i.e the most important resources that the world truly needs, and the companies that produce them. Food. Energy. Productive technology. And, yes, certain metals like tin that play a prominent role in a coming boom.
Uranium is another great example— I’ve been talking about the importance of nuclear energy and uranium scarcity for quite some time, and saying that eventually the supply/demand imbalance will send uranium prices soaring.
That has now happened. Uranium prices are up more than 50% this year, and at their highest levels since 2008.
I think the same thing could happen to boring old tin, as it once again becomes an incredibly important resource.

Banks who are prepared to make their move in January 2024 will benefit greatly from this decision. They will be able to revalue their gold reserves.
Once this legislative bill is signed into law, it will create a market signal for gold to run to its real value.
It will begin creating price pressures on the Commodity Market, Cryptocurrency Market, and all Tokenized Assets in the Market backed by gold and other commodities.
This will begin to reset prices across all sectors of the Global Market.

"This bill grants exclusive jurisdiction to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission over activity involving digital commodities as specified by the bill.
The bill defines digital commodities as fungible digital forms of personal property that can be transferred from person to person without an intermediary. Excluded from this definition are securities, interests in physical commodities, and U.S.-backed digital currencies. The commission does not have jurisdiction over digital commodities used solely for the purchase or sale of a good or service.
Digital commodity platforms (including brokers, custodians, dealers, and trading facilities) must register with the commission and comply with risk management and good governance procedures. The bill also sets forth recordkeeping requirements, conflict of interest standards, and other consumer protections."
And more...
"Google will allow ads for U.S. based-crypto trusts from January, with the change seemingly coming in the same month that spot Bitcoin ETFs are predicted to be approved.
In a Dec. 6 policy change log, Google said its crypto and related products ad policy will be updated on Jan. 29, 2024, to allow ads from “advertisers offering Cryptocurrency Coin Trust targeting the United States.”
Cryptocurrency Coin Trusts were exampled as “financial products that allow investors to trade shares in trusts holding large pools of digital currency” — likely including ETFs.

“IBM applauds EU negotiators for reaching a provisional agreement on the world’s first comprehensive AI legislation. We have long urged the EU to take a carefully balanced approach, focused on regulating high-risk applications of AI while promoting transparency, explainability, and safety among all AI models. As lawmakers work through the remaining technical details, we encourage EU policymakers to retain this focus on risk and accountability, rather than algorithms.

About the Survey of Consumer Expectations (SCE)
The SCE contains information about how consumers expect overall inflation and prices for food, gas, housing, and education to behave. It also provides insight into Americans’ views about job prospects and earnings growth and their expectations about future spending and access to credit.
The SCE also provides measures of uncertainty regarding consumers’ outlooks. Expectations are also available by age, geography, income, education, and numeracy.
The SCE is a nationally representative, internet-based survey of a rotating panel of approximately 1,300 household heads. Respondents participate in the panel for up to 12 months, with a roughly equal number rotating in and out of the panel each month.
Unlike comparable surveys based on repeated cross-sections with a different set of respondents in each wave, this panel allows us to observe the changes in expectations and behavior of the same individuals over time. For further information on the SCE, please refer to an overview of the survey methodology here, the interactive chart guide, and the survey questionnaire

Things are beginning to heat up in the Forex Markets. Look for foreign currencies to begin lining themself up as they begin to establish their place in the new digital economy.
Programs are being rewritten at this time to establish new protocols and standards on local currencies instead of the use of the dollar as new trade agreements come into the forefront.

There may be a major development to keep people from watching this closely, so it is important for us all to stay awake.
Unless we get a nice surprise this month, don't look for any major changes just yet. Benchmarks have been pushed out in the banking system, but they can be pulled right back in...

"...the Bank of England is set to collaborate with international counterparts to ensure a coordinated and harmonized approach to stablecoin regulation. Recognizing the borderless nature of cryptocurrencies, such collaboration is deemed essential to prevent regulatory arbitrage and maintain the integrity of the global financial system. As part of this initiative, the Bank will also explore the possibility of developing a central bank digital currency (CBDC)."
Look for 2024 to be the year of integration for digital and paper currencies through Stablecoins and CBDC networks.
Tighter regulatory protocols will determine which digital networks will move forward in the transference of currency tokens that will represent foreign exchange opportunities.
The Protocol 20 vote on January 30th of 2024 will determine programmable prices on the digitization of currencies through tokenizing these assets and supporting them with gold.

Let's take a good look at why Protocol 20 is so important. We're moving into a time where programmable money is controlled by a Central Authority such as a Government or Financial Institution.
Digital money can be programmed to follow through with transactions when certain conditions are met.
Self-executing contracts known as smart contracts to secure both sides of a trade are capable of going through will be done through artificial intelligence. The self executing contracts are written into the code of a computer program to facilitate sequences moving digital money.
Programmable money includes CBDCs, Stablecoins, and digital versions of traditional assets that are Tokenized into a digital format.
When protocol 20 is voted and approved on January the 30th 2024. It will create a new starting point for digital tokenized asset values. It will synchronize banks and shipping ports with the markets at the push of a button. New monetary values will begin to form from these starting points in all sectors of the market including Forex.
These new standard protocols backed by gold, algorithmic demands, and other commodities will create global computations that will level the playing field. Everything will reset.
Watch the banks.
Watch the markets.
Watch the water.
Watch gold.

Another Central Banker Admits The Truth About The US Dollar
Another Central Banker Admits The Truth About The US Dollar
Notes From the Field By Simon Black November 28, 2023
On March 20, 1602, after a few years of painstaking negotiations, a deal was struck amid the cobblestone streets and legendary waterways of Amsterdam that changed the world of finance forever.
The Dutch Republic (as it was known back then) was already a major economic power in the early 1600s; Dutch merchants boasted enormous fleets of thousands of ships and lucrative trading posts around the world. Money was pouring in to the economy.
But at the same time, competition was fierce. England, Spain, Portugal, etc. all wanted in on the vast wealth that Dutch merchants were minting from the spice trade.
Another Central Banker Admits The Truth About The US Dollar
Notes From the Field By Simon Black November 28, 2023
On March 20, 1602, after a few years of painstaking negotiations, a deal was struck amid the cobblestone streets and legendary waterways of Amsterdam that changed the world of finance forever.
The Dutch Republic (as it was known back then) was already a major economic power in the early 1600s; Dutch merchants boasted enormous fleets of thousands of ships and lucrative trading posts around the world. Money was pouring in to the economy.
But at the same time, competition was fierce. England, Spain, Portugal, etc. all wanted in on the vast wealth that Dutch merchants were minting from the spice trade.
So in an effort to fend off international competition, Dutch traders unified their operations; merchants in Amsterdam merged in 1601. And, the following March, the remainder of the country’s prominent merchants joined.
They called their new venture the Verenigde Oostindische Compagnie (VOC); it is known to history as the Dutch East India Company.
What made VOC so innovative is that investors could buy shares in the company, and hence enjoy a piece of the profits proportionate to the number of shares they owned.
But on top of that, they also launched a stock exchange… creating a secondary market where investors could buy or sell shares of VOC.
This was game changing.
These innovations by themselves were not new; other ‘joint-stock’ companies had been formed in the past. And other rudimentary financial exchanges had already been in existence.
But the Dutch put the two together, combining a major business enterprise with a formalized stock exchange. It had never been done before… and the idea marked the beginning of the country’s economic dominance, known as the Dutch Golden Age.
Naturally, as the Dutch Republic became Europe’s most powerful economy, its currency-- a gold coin known as the guilder-- became the unofficial reserve currency around the world.
From Eastern Europe to Japan, Indonesia, and parts of India, traders often exchanged goods and services for Dutch guilders because they had confidence that the coins would be universally accepted.
And the guilder’s status as a de facto reserve currency lasted for centuries.
But history is very clear that no empire, and no reserve currency, lasts forever.
Eventually the dominance of the Dutch republic was displaced by the British Empire, and the guilder by the British pound. Britain, in turn, was eventually displaced by the United States and the US dollar.
But only someone willfully ignorant of history would believe that America’s and the dollar’s dominance will last forever.
And this should hardly be a controversial assertion anymore.
Politicians within US government have routinely demonstrated an outrageous level of pettiness, incompetence, and the inability to solve even the most basic problems.
They have absolutely no control over abhorrent deficit spending. They go into debt to pay people to NOT work. They ignore downgrades of their sovereign credit rating. And they actually cheer themselves when the deficit is “only” $2 trillion.
America’s central bankers, meanwhile, conjured trillions of dollars out of thin air without any clue of the repercussions. They failed to predict inflation. They failed to diagnose it. They failed to do anything about it.
And when they finally did take action, they failed to anticipate any negative consequences of raising interest rates so quickly.
Literally two days before Silicon Valley Bank went bust earlier this year, the Chairman of the Fed told Congress that “nothing about the data suggests we’ve tightened [raised interest rates] too much.”
These people are clueless. And everyone has noticed.
Confidence in the dollar is waning, and foreigners are starting to diversify to other assets. Data from the IMF showed that the US dollar’s share of foreign exchange reserves had fallen to a multi-decade low.
Similarly, foreigners’ appetite to own US government bonds is dropping rapidly. A decade ago, foreigners happily owned 43% of all US government bonds. Today foreigners’ share is 30%, and falling.
These trends show very clearly that the dollar is simply not as dominant as it used to be.
In a recent interview, Aerdt Houben, a senior official at the Dutch central bank, said the quiet part out loud, and explained that the Netherlands was already preparing for a world in which gold (and NOT the US dollar) is the primary global reserve currency.
“The beauty of gold is that it’s stable in value, it retains its value. That's one of the reasons why central banks hold gold... Gold is like solidified confidence for the central bank... If we ever unexpectedly have to create a new currency or a systemic risk arises, the public can have confidence in [the Dutch central bank] because whatever money we issue, we can back it with the same value in gold.”
The Dutch understand this concept very well; after all, they once held the world’s #1 reserve currency position… and then lost it. So they know the same thing will happen to the dollar. It’s inevitable.
I agree entirely with this view and have written about it extensively: I believe there is a very high likelihood that the dollar loses its reserve dominance within the next 10-years, and probably sooner.
The Congressional Budget Office has already forecast (rather optimistically) that interest on the debt, plus mandatory entitlements like Social Security, will consume 100% of US federal tax revenue by 2031.
This means that everything else, including the military, will have to be financed by debt.
Two years later in 2033, Social Security’s primary trust fund will run out of money, according to the program’s annual trustee report.
These are not conspiracy theories; rather, these are the government’s own forecasts. And I believe that either event could trigger a reset of the global financial system in which the US loses its dominance over the rest of the world.
Personally I don’t think that anyone trusts China enough to anoint its yuan as the new global reserve currency.
But gold is an asset that has a 5,000+ year history of trust and confidence.
And if gold does become the global reserve once again, you can likely bet that gold prices will go to the moon.

"Key players in the global container freight transport market include:
Maersk
Hapag-Lloyd AG
Evergreen Marine Corp.
MSC Industrial Direct
COSCO Shipping Development
CMA CGM
APL Logistics Americas
Kuehne Nagel
Hanjin Group
The container freight transport market is driven by a number of factors, including:
The growing volume of global trade
Increasing globalization of supply chains
The growth of e-commerce"
The shipping industry is growing into more volume along with more efficiency through digitizing this new trading sector. These factors will go into play as new price determinations are coming into view.
This is where the rubber meets the road on the formation of exchange rates around the world.
Protocol 20 will determine new tokenized asset prices, and the shipping industry will support the determination of these values through volumes being priced because of it.

Everybody was wrong about the amount of damage that an artificially suppressed price of silver could cause.
Next month 200 Countries will announce through the United Nations the need to TRIPLE Green Energy production and 5X SOLAR POWER INSTALLATIONS by 2030!
This will HAVE to be done to SAVE THE WORLD!
The Problem is that there's not enough silver on the planet to do that.
Here's what went wrong...the price of silver was suppressed for so long that alternatives to silver in solar panels was NOT necessary so not invented...BIG MISTAKE!
Now the #1 CHOICE to End Climate Change is creating massive amounts of solar farms eating up every ounce of silver on the planet...at $24/oz.
By the way...they have no alternatives!
