BREAKING NEWS: THE TEXAS SENATE ADVANCED A BILL THAT WOULD ESTABLISH A STREAMLINED DIGITAL CURRENCY LINKED TO GOLD AND SILVER AS LEGAL TENDER
Poetry in motion.
“HB 1056 aims to allow Texans to make transactions using gold stored in the Texas Bullion Depository through a debit card system…”
One of the world’s largest copper mines remains partially offline, with 70% of its production halted. This mine is the third-largest copper producer globally.
As global copper supplies tighten, this is worth watching… Copper is the glue that holds the global economy together.
Never underestimate the power of the underdog. It’s been my mantra throughout my career and it’s the perfect way to describe gold.
You can dismiss it.
You can mock it.
You can try to break it.
But it always endures and when the world gets ugly, it roars back with a vengeance.
BREAKING NEWS: GERMANY’S TAXPAYERS FEDERATION SENT LETTERS THIS WEEK TO THE BUNDESBANK AND THE FINANCE MINISTRY CALLING ON THEM TO REPATRIATE THE GOLD STORED IN THE UNITED STATES.
Boom.
“Germany has stored gold in New York since Cold War…”
The CEO of America’s largest bank just warned that the U.S. bond market will crack under rising debt. Everyone’s sounding the alarm now. As I’ve said for years, QE helped inflate the greatest sovereign debt bubble in history. End scene.

Luke Gromen: US Braces for Capital Controls as Global Trade Reset Begins
Daniela Cambone: 5-30-2025
“If one believes that this is a restructuring of the global trading system, as a lot of people do, then it is fait accompli, the United States is no longer going to have open capital account,” says Luke Gromen, founder and president of Forest for the Trees (FFTT).
He explains to Daniela Cambone that if the US keeps its capital account open while China restricts capital flows, it risks becoming a source of funds for a heavily indebted global economy during trade disruptions.
“Everybody wants to get their money out of China. Chinese say no. Then they go... to the US, sell stocks, sell treasuries. And the US loses the trade war.” Gromen also highlights that the status of gold has been strengthened since the 2008 financial crisis, when it became clear that the US would not reform fiscal policy but instead print money to resolve crises.
“Gold is both preserving purchasing power and providing absolute national control,” he concludes.

OCC Calls for Stronger Financial Literacy on Crypto
The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), the federal agency responsible for overseeing national banks and federal savings associations, has taken steps to clarify the regulatory framework around digital assets in the U.S. banking system.
Acting Comptroller Rodney E. Hood, speaking at the Financial Literacy and Education Commission (FLEC) on May 29, 2025, highlighted the increasing importance of cryptocurrency and digital assets in financial services.
“Everyone in the financial ecosystem – including financial educators – should carefully monitor the rapidly changing financial marketplace and update financial education strategies accordingly.
For example, in 2023, almost 5 percent of all households owned or used cryptocurrency, with more than nine in 10 of those holding it as an investment,” Hood said, adding:
“Given the level of interest, expanding financial literacy resources to address digital asset investments may be useful.”
Hood’s comments reflect the OCC’s role in ensuring that banks can engage with digital assets in a regulated and secure manner.
The Acting Comptroller also discussed the need for financial educators to update their strategies to address the growing number of consumers engaging with digital assets — many of whom are first-time investors.
He suggested that financial literacy programs should help these new investors understand the risks and opportunities of digital assets. The OCC has long supported financial education, and Hood emphasized that these efforts should now include resources on emerging financial products like cryptocurrency.
This approach aligns with the OCC’s recent guidance, released in May, which confirmed that national banks and federal savings associations are authorized to provide cryptocurrency-related services, such as custody and execution, as long as proper risk management practices are in place.
“The federal banking system is well positioned to engage in digital asset activities,” the OCC recently said.
The OCC’s position shows a cautious but supportive approach to integrating digital assets into the banking system, while also stressing the importance of consumer education and safety.

BRICS: US Risks Losing $7.5 Trillion Worth of Asian Assets
The BRICS alliance and all Asian countries combined have an investment worth $7.5 trillion in US assets, including bonds. For decades, the global financial gameplay was simple and easy to understand. Asia had an effortless strategy: sell goods to the US, and in return, invest the proceeds into American financial assets.
Things are now changing under the Trump administration, after the US President disrupted the smooth flow of global trade.
The tariffs and trade wars have rubbed emerging economies the wrong way, and things could turn worse if BRICS and other Asian countries put their own nations first and stop depending on US assets for financial benefits. The unwinding of the $7.5 trillion has already begun on a small scale, according to some of the world’s biggest money managers, speaking to Bloomberg.
These money managers warned that if the US fails to halt the outflow, the future could be bleak.
BRICS: $7.5 Trillion Asian Assets Sell-Off Could Shake the US Markets
For those unfamiliar with this financial shift, the sell-offs in US assets have already been initiated by BRICS. Since 2024, China alone has dumped $150 billion worth of US Treasuries and bonds, choosing to diversify its reserves.
Not just China—many developing nations have sold US assets and purchased gold to diversify their central banks' holdings. Hoarding the US dollar is seen as increasingly risky, especially as the debt ceiling has surged past $36 trillion.
“We are in a shifting world order and I do not believe that we will go back to the state of things as we had before,” said Virginie Maisonneuve, Chief Investment Officer at Allianz Global Investors.
“It is an evolution from the World War Two order and is partially triggered by China rivaling the US in economic and technology terms,” she added.
If BRICS and Asian countries pull the plug on their $7.5 trillion investments in Treasuries and bonds, the US financial markets could be severely shaken.

XRP LAWSUIT: NEW MYSTERIOUS ‘DECISIVE EVIDENCE’ TO CHANGE RIPPLE OUTCOME?

XRP LAWSUIT: NEW MYSTERIOUS ‘DECISIVE EVIDENCE’ TO CHANGE RIPPLE OUTCOME?
▪️ Mysterious Filing Resurfaces: Justin Keener submits an emergency motion claiming “decisive evidence” that could aid Ripple in its lawsuit.
▪️ Ripple vs. SEC Drama Continues: Legal experts weigh in as the XRP community watches how this filing might impact the case before June 16.
The XRP lawsuit never “fails to entertain” and it just got interesting. A mysterious filing by Justin W. Keener with an emergency motion has resurfaced again.
Decisive Evidence to Change the Outcome?
Keener says that he has “decisive evidence” which could change the outcome of the Ripple vs. SEC case in favor of Ripple. This unexpected move invited comments from experts like Bill Morgan and Marc Fagel.
“XRP Case Never Fails to Surprise”
Bill Morgan shared that he expected some kind of filing, especially with the 60-day deadline for a status update nearing on June 16. He didn’t expect a lengthy, emotional rant against the Howey Test and its court interpretations, especially about “investment contracts.” The rant also criticized the SEC’s actions over the past 90 years.
“This case never fails to entertain or end,” he said, which shows how unpredictable the lawsuit has become.
Marc Fagel also pointed out that this is the second time the same individual has submitted documents. The SEC even responded to the first one but questioned why the court hasn’t shut down the person’s PACER account yet, given the unauthorized filings.
Keener’s first attempt to submit his “decisive evidence” in the Ripple case was shut down back in April, but he’s now trying again. Keener was recently fined $10 million for illegally trading penny stocks without registering as a dealer.
Will This Impact the Lawsuit?
The XRP community is watching closely to see if this would have any impact on the lawsuit. Most expect the court to reject it again, but how the judge and SEC respond this time will show whether it has any real impact.
In a recent letter to the SEC, Ripple said that fungible crypto assets like XRP aren’t securities in secondary sales. Citing legal expert Lewis Cohen and a 2023 court ruling, Ripple argued that these tokens don’t carry the legal traits of securities and requested the SEC to adopt clearer rules, noting that XRP itself was ruled not a security in public trading.

BRICS: 44 COUNTRIES ALIGN WITH DE-DOLLARIZATION AGENDA
A total of 44 countries are aligning with the de-dollarization agenda kick-started by the BRICS alliance. The 11-member bloc is rewriting trade policies to benefit their national economies and currencies while ignoring the US dollar.
The shift against the greenback is accelerating as emerging economies are bringing investments back home. Developing countries are cutting ties with the US-based financial investments such as bonds, and accumulating gold and local currencies in their reserves.
The economic policies of the White House have caused extreme financial distress in developing countries. From Trump initiating tariffs to trade wars and global dominance, emerging economies are siding with BRICS as the bloc advances the de-dollarization agenda.
The US now stands alone on the global stage as even the European Union, which is its close ally, is considering the euro for transactions. Several leaders have openly called to reduce dependency on the USD and focus on European assets.
44 Countries Align With BRICS De-Dollarization Agenda
Vietnam became the latest country to show interest in the BRICS de-dollarization agenda in 2025. Around 44 countries are interested in BRICS expansion and officially taking part in the de-dollarization policies. The nations who are on the sidelines want to dismantle the US dollar’s dominance and replace it with local currencies.
The upcoming 17th summit in Rio de Janeiro will signal how fast the process will gain shape next. BRICS made it clear that the long-term goal of the alliance is to fast-track de-dollarization and end the US dollar’s supremacy. It is reported that many more countries could join the bandwagon from Asia and nations from the African region.
Emerging economies want to use BRICS as a stepping stone to officially launch the de-dollarization roadmap in their respective countries. They would have the backing of the New Development Bank (NDB) which can disburse loans in local currencies for infrastructural developments.

U.S. Department of Labor Reverses 2022 Guidance That Blocked Digital Assets From 401(k) Plans
The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) is scrapping a mandate in its 2022 guidance that prevented digital assets from being included in 401(k) retirement plans.
In a new press release, the DOL says it’s rolling back its 2022 compliance release, which previously instructed institutions to forgo using crypto assets as options for 401(k) plans.

The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) is scrapping a mandate in its 2022 guidance that prevented digital assets from being included in 401(k) retirement plans.
In a new press release, the DOL says it’s rolling back its 2022 compliance release, which previously instructed institutions to forgo using crypto assets as options for 401(k) plans.
In 2022, the DOL warned fiduciaries to use "extreme care" before offering digital assets as options for retirement plans, language that was considered unusual at the time as the agency historically has taken a neutral approach toward the subject, according to the press release.
According to U.S. Secretary of Labor Lori Chavez-DeRemer, the DOL is rolling back the government overreach created by the Biden Administration.
Says Chavez-DeRemer,
"The Biden administration’s department of labor made a choice to put their thumb on the scale. We’re rolling back this overreach and making it clear that investment decisions should be made by fiduciaries, not D.C. bureaucrats."
The DOL says it’s neither endorsing nor disapproving of employers who choose to include crypto assets and notes that its reasoning extends to other crypto-related products, such as derivatives.
Previously, the DOL said it had "serious concerns" about people’s retirement funds being tied up in crypto due to "significant risks of fraud, theft, and loss."

Russia Allows Banks to Offer Crypto Products to Accredited Investors
Russian banks have started rolling out crypto investment products tied to the price of Bitcoin following a greenlight from the central bank.
The Bank of Russia has permitted financial institutions to offer certain cryptocurrency-based financial instruments to accredited investors.
Russian banks are now free to provide qualified investors with a range of crypto products, including crypto derivatives, securities, and other digital financial assets tied to crypto prices, the central bank announced on May 28.
A key stipulation, however, is that these products must not involve the "actual delivery of cryptocurrencies," the Bank of Russia emphasized.
The announcement came alongside the Bank of Russia reporting a 51% increase in crypto asset inflows by Russian residents in the first quarter of 2025, totaling 7.3 trillion rubles ($81.5 billion).
T-Bank Among the First to Offer Bitcoin Investment Products
Some major Russian banks started rolling out cryptocurrency investment products immediately following the Bank of Russia’s announcement.
T-Bank (formerly Tinkoff Bank), one of the largest commercial banks in Russia, announced on May 29 the offering of digital financial assets (DFA) tied to Bitcoin.
“The tool allows you to invest in cryptocurrency in rubles through a familiar application — safely and within the legal framework of the Russian Federation, without opening an account on a crypto exchange and difficulties with protecting your wallet,” the bank said.
T-Bank’s new “smart asset” offering is issued through the Russian state-backed tokenization platform Atomyze and is available exclusively to accredited investors.
Direct Crypto Investments Still Not Encouraged
While greenlighting local lenders to offer crypto products, the Russian central bank still maintains a restrictive approach regarding direct cryptocurrency investment.
“The Bank of Russia still does not recommend financial institutions and their clients to invest directly in cryptocurrencies,” the Bank of Russia said in a statement.
The central bank also noted the ongoing government discussions on the potential launch of an experimental regime that would allow certain investors to trade crypto assets like Bitcoin directly.
Russia’s Estimated CEX Holdings Are at $9.2 Billion
In its latest financial stability review, the Bank of Russia estimated Russians’ crypto holdings on centralized exchanges (CEXs) at 827 billion rubles ($9.2 billion).
According to the authority, Bitcoin is leading Russians’ CEX holdings with a 62% share, with Ether (ETH) following at 22%. Stablecoins like Tether (USDT) and Circle’s USDC ranked third with a share of 15.9%.
Some local crypto enthusiasts observed that the actual figure of cryptocurrency held by Russians is significantly bigger than the estimated CEX holdings reported by the Bank of Russia.
“I know that [Pavel] Durov and [Alexey] Bilyuchenko alone have more money in their wallets than this amount,” Sergey Mendeleev, founder of the digital settlement exchange Exved, wrote on his Telegram channel. He hinted that Russians hold much bigger crypto amounts in wallets and decentralized exchanges.

FL Gov Ron DeSantis Signs Bill to Recognize Gold and Silver as Legal Tender
FL Gov Ron DeSantis Signs Bill to Recognize Gold and Silver as Legal Tender
Shadow of Ezra: 5-27-2025

FL Gov Ron DeSantis Signs Bill to Recognize Gold and Silver as Legal Tender
Shadow of Ezra: 5-27-2025
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has signed a new law that begins the process of recognizing gold and silver as legal tender in the state.
The measure allows certain precious metal coins to be used for everyday payments, offering Floridians a potential alternative to traditional currency.
DeSantis says the move is meant to protect against the declining value of the dollar, which he blames on constant deficit spending in Washington.
The bill will go into effect on July 1, 2026.
“You can’t print this out of thin air.”
https://twitter.com/i/status/1927474270193541554
DeSantis’s rationale is clear: he believes that relentless deficit spending in Washington is eroding the dollar’s purchasing power, leaving citizens vulnerable to inflationary pressures.
By offering an alternative in gold and silver, he argues, Floridians will have a haven against the whims of federal economic policy. This resonates with a growing sentiment of distrust in centralized financial systems and a desire for greater economic independence.
On the surface, the idea of a tangible, inflation-resistant currency is appealing, particularly in an era of economic uncertainty. Gold and silver have historically held their value better than paper currency during times of economic turmoil.
Supporters argue that allowing their use as legal tender provides a valuable hedge against potential dollar instability.
However, the practical implications of integrating precious metals into the everyday economy are complex and raise several questions.
Firstly, valuation and transaction costs: How will businesses accurately and consistently value gold and silver coins for everyday transactions? Fluctuations in the precious metals market could create confusion and arbitrage opportunities, requiring a robust system for pricing and verification. Furthermore, the costs associated with assaying and authenticating coins could make small transactions impractical.
Secondly, scalability: Can the existing supply of gold and silver coins adequately serve the needs of a state the size of Florida? A widespread shift to precious metal currency could strain supply chains and potentially drive up the price of gold and silver, negating the intended benefit of inflation protection.
Thirdly, integration with the existing financial system: How will this new system interact with the traditional banking infrastructure? Will banks be required to accept gold and silver deposits? Without seamless integration, the adoption of precious metals as legal tender could create a fragmented and inefficient financial landscape.
Finally, and perhaps most importantly, potential for manipulation and fraud: The inherent value of precious metals makes them attractive targets for counterfeiters. A lack of robust security measures could expose Floridians to the risk of accepting fake or diluted gold and silver coins.
While DeSantis’s intentions are laudable, the success of this initiative hinges on careful planning and implementation. Florida must address the aforementioned challenges to ensure that the transition to a precious metal-backed system is smooth and beneficial for its citizens.
The move by Florida is undoubtedly a bold experiment, one that the rest of the nation will be watching closely. It raises fundamental questions about the future of currency and the role of government in monetary policy.
Whether it proves to be a golden opportunity or a fool’s errand remains to be seen. However, one thing is certain:
Florida’s gamble on precious metals has sparked a crucial conversation about the stability and reliability of our financial system. Now, it is up to the state to prove that its vision of a gold-backed future is more than just a pipe dream.

De-dollarization: SCO Nations Shift 92% of Trade Away from U.S. Dollar
De-dollarization is accelerating dramatically right now as Shanghai Cooperation Organization members are reducing their United States dollar dependency in international trade. SCO nations have also successfully implemented currency substitution strategies, with Russia reporting that national currencies now account for over 92% of trade settlements with fellow member states, and this marks a historic shift away from dollar-dominated global commerce.
“Our countries are increasing the use of national currencies in mutual settlements. For example, their share in Russia’s commercial transactions with members of the organization has already exceeded 92% in the first four months of this year.”

De-dollarization: SCO Nations Shift 92% of Trade Away from U.S. Dollar
De-dollarization is accelerating dramatically right now as Shanghai Cooperation Organization members are reducing their United States dollar dependency in international trade. SCO nations have also successfully implemented currency substitution strategies, with Russia reporting that national currencies now account for over 92% of trade settlements with fellow member states, and this marks a historic shift away from dollar-dominated global commerce.
“Our countries are increasing the use of national currencies in mutual settlements. For example, their share in Russia’s commercial transactions with members of the organization has already exceeded 92% in the first four months of this year.”
How SCO Nations, BRICS, and Currency Substitution Are Driving De-dollarization Trends
The Shanghai Cooperation Organization’s coordinated approach to de-dollarization represents a fundamental shift in global financial architecture right now.
This massive economic bloc, which encompasses China, Russia, India, Pakistan, Iran, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and also Uzbekistan, controls approximately 42% of the world’s population and represents significant economic power that’s driving currency substitution initiatives across the region.
Putin also noted the broader economic success of SCO nations:
“The average GDP growth of the member countries of our organization last year amounted to more than 5%, industrial production to 4.5%, while the inflation rate is only 2.4%. At the same time, Russia’s trade with the SCO states has increased by a quarter.”
SCO’s Strategic De-dollarization Implementation
The de-dollarization movement within SCO represents more than just statistical changes—it also reflects systematic policy coordination among member nations at the time of writing. Putin emphasized Russia’s commitment to expanding non-dollar payment mechanisms, and he’s proposing an independent SCO settlement system that would further reduce United States dollar dependency.
BRICS nations are working closely with SCO countries to implement currency substitution across multiple economic sectors right now. China’s yuan has emerged as a primary alternative currency, while bilateral trade agreements are increasingly favoring national currencies over traditional dollar-denominated transactions, and this trend is gaining momentum.
The coordination between SCO nations and also BRICS members amplifies de-dollarization effects globally. These interconnected economic blocs represent countries that are seeking financial sovereignty through currency substitution, and they’re reducing exposure to United States dollar volatility and potential sanctions.
Putin highlighted the strategic importance of this transition:
“Regular meetings of economy and finance ministers and governors of central banks made a weighty contribution to the development of trade and investment in the SCO.”
Oil-producing nations that were traditionally tied to petrodollar systems are now exploring alternatives. Saudi Arabia’s openness to yuan-denominated oil transactions with China exemplifies how even traditional dollar allies are considering currency substitution options right now.
Since almost all of the trade settlements within the SCO avoid the dollar, this achievement shows that large-scale de-dollarization works well. This action by leading economies is now challenging the United States dollar’s long-standing place in global trade and it may play a major role in reshaping financial systems over the next few decades.

WisdomTree’s XRP ETF Approval Bid Gains Momentum with SEC Review
▪️SEC begins review of WisdomTree’s proposed spot XRP ETF, sparking optimism and driving XRP’s price to $2.30.
▪️Ripple pushes back on security claims as ETF approval could mark a turning point for XRP's regulatory and institutional future.
XRP is making noise in the market again, now trading around $2.30. Investors are getting bullish as excitement builds over a potential U.S. spot ETF approval. The market is responding with optimism, seeing the move as a major step toward broader institutional access and legitimacy for the token.
Though XRP cleared the securities tag partially, a final court judgement is awaited; however, the pace SEC is going with XRP ETFs, it seems all is under control and approval is on the way.
SEC Opens Door for XRP Spot ETF
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has officially started reviewing the WisdomTree XRP Trust, a proposed spot ETF that would allow investors to gain exposure to XRP without owning the token directly. This would be the first U.S.-based spot XRP ETF, potentially laying the groundwork for other crypto ETFs in the future.
Filed by Cboe BZX Exchange, the ETF aims to mirror the price of XRP via the CME CF Ripple-Dollar Reference Rate. If approved, it would enable XRP trading through traditional brokerage accounts, eliminating the need for crypto wallets or private keys.
Investor Protection at Play
As part of the process, the SEC has published a notice under Release No. 34-103124, calling for public feedback. The agency wants input on whether the product protects investors and how it plans to tackle market manipulation concerns. The Commission has 240 days to decide whether to approve or reject the application.
At the same time, Ripple’s Chief Legal Officer, Stuart Alderoty, fired back at the SEC’s broader crypto stance. In a recent letter to the agency’s crypto taskforce, he urged clearer rules, stating that XRP is not a security. He warned that vague regulatory terms like “decentralized” or “fully functional” only add confusion for both issuers and market participants.
With the SEC’s clock ticking and public comment now open, all eyes are on how the Commission handles this groundbreaking application. For now, bullish sentiment is picking up, and XRP’s rally suggests that traders are betting big on a regulatory breakthrough.

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,
BITGET LAUNCHES BGUSD — A 4% YIELD-BEARING STABLE ASSET BACKED BY REAL-WORLD ASSETS
Bitget is diving into the red-hot real-world asset (RWA) sector with a new crypto product — BGUSD, a yield-bearing stable asset offering 4% APY, paid daily.
What Is BGUSD?
Good Morning Dinar Recaps,
BITGET LAUNCHES BGUSD — A 4% YIELD-BEARING STABLE ASSET BACKED BY REAL-WORLD ASSETS
Bitget is diving into the red-hot real-world asset (RWA) sector with a new crypto product — BGUSD, a yield-bearing stable asset offering 4% APY, paid daily.
What Is BGUSD?
🔹 BGUSD is not your average stablecoin — Bitget CEO Gracy Chen calls it a “yield-bearing stable asset certificate.”
🔹 It offers 4% annual yield, credited daily to users’ spot wallets.
🔹 Subscriptions are available via USDC or USDT, and BGUSD is redeemable back to USDC on demand.
🔹 Yield is generated through a basket of tokenized real-world assets like U.S. Treasury bills and high-grade money-market funds.
How It Works
Bitget partners with regulated tokenization platforms like Superstate to manage its asset reserves.
🛡️ Liquidity: Bitget directly manages the reserve pool and maintains on-hand USDC to guarantee redemptions.
📑 Transparency: Bitget will implement third-party attestations and audits soon, though its institutional partners already follow strict regulatory oversight.
“Transparency and accountability are core principles of BGUSD’s framework.” — Gracy Chen, CEO, Bitget
No Stablecoin, No Security — A New Category?
Bitget says BGUSD is not a stablecoin or a security, and therefore isn’t subject to traditional licensing requirements.
“It’s structured as a yield-bearing stable asset certificate exclusive to the Bitget platform.” — Chen
🌍 Availability: Access will be restricted in jurisdictions with digital asset regulations.
Why It Matters
The launch comes as yield-bearing stablecoins explode, growing from $1.5B in January to $11B in May, now comprising 4.5% of the stablecoin market.
📈 Regulatory tailwinds from the Trump administration are pushing growth:
SEC approved the first U.S. yield-bearing stablecoin by Figure Markets (Feb 2025)
Legislative support includes the STABLE Act and the GENIUS Act
Bottom Line
With BGUSD, Bitget enters the fast-growing RWA + stablecoin arena — offering a product that merges crypto convenience with traditional finance yield.

JP MORGAN DOWNGRADES U.S. DOLLAR — SAYS BRICS GIANTS CHINA & INDIA ARE ASCENDING
JP Morgan is shifting gears—cutting its outlook on the U.S. dollar while turning bullish on emerging markets, particularly BRICS powerhouses China and India.
Dollar Weakness Opens Door for BRICS Surge
According to JP Morgan’s latest research note, the U.S. dollar could remain soft throughout 2025, and that may be the catalyst for a major capital shift into BRICS markets.
📉 The DXY Index has slid into the 98 range, struggling to hold above key resistance levels near 100.
“USD could stay soft this year, which would help EM assets (BRICS),” the report stated.
“EM historically traded inversely to the dollar. The big question: Is the 15-year EM downtrend finally reversing?”
Spotlight on China, India, and Brazil
JP Morgan highlighted China, India, and Brazil as top picks within the emerging market space.
“Within EM, we think (BRICS members) China could be of interest… as well as India and Brazil.”
The CSI index and H-shares are seen as poised for a catch-up rally, with institutional and hedge fund flows already shifting into these markets.
U.S. Policy Risks Amplify Dollar Headwinds
JP Morgan cautioned that U.S. fiscal uncertainty may worsen dollar weakness:
“US bond yields may rise short-term—fueled by potential aggressive tax cuts, rising deficits, and inflationary tariffs—but that backdrop could actually accelerate EM strength.”
The combination of slowing dollar momentum, global investment inflows, and rising geopolitical autonomy in BRICS may lead to a broader de-dollarization trend in the global economy.
Why It Matters
🌍 As the dollar stumbles, BRICS nations could emerge as investment darlings, with massive implications for:
Global FX reserves
Commodities pricing
Crypto flows into BRICS-aligned regions
Bottom Line
JP Morgan is betting on the rise of the East. With the dollar losing steam, BRICS nations may finally flip the global economic script — and investors are already moving capital accordingly.

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,
MORGAN STANLEY PREDICTS 10% DROP IN US DOLLAR — SEES BOOST FOR RISK ASSETS AND S&P 500
Morgan Stanley has issued a bold mid-year forecast: the U.S. dollar is headed for a major decline, which could act as a tailwind for equities, crypto, and other risk-on assets.
CIO Mike Wilson: “Dollar to Fall Another 10% Into 2026”
In an interview with Bloomberg Television, Chief Investment Officer Mike Wilson said:
“Our forecast for the dollar… is for another 10% decline, continuing into next year. That’s another reason the S&P 500 will be hard-pressed to correct more than 10%.”
Good Evening Dinar Recaps,
MORGAN STANLEY PREDICTS 10% DROP IN US DOLLAR — SEES BOOST FOR RISK ASSETS AND S&P 500
Morgan Stanley has issued a bold mid-year forecast: the U.S. dollar is headed for a major decline, which could act as a tailwind for equities, crypto, and other risk-on assets.
CIO Mike Wilson: “Dollar to Fall Another 10% Into 2026”
In an interview with Bloomberg Television, Chief Investment Officer Mike Wilson said:
“Our forecast for the dollar… is for another 10% decline, continuing into next year. That’s another reason the S&P 500 will be hard-pressed to correct more than 10%.”
The call is based largely on Morgan Stanley’s projection of 175 basis points in Fed rate cuts over the next year.
📉 If realized, this would deepen pressure on the greenback and stimulate broader asset markets.
Even with Fewer Rate Cuts, Dollar Still Going Down
Wilson emphasized that even if the Fed doesn’t cut rates as aggressively:
“The direction of travel is still south for the dollar… particularly against the yen, euro, and pound — economies with less room to cut in a slowdown.”
This shift could:
Weaken the dollar globally
Make U.S. exports more competitive
Push investors toward commodities, stocks, and crypto
Why This Matters for Investors
A falling U.S. dollar tends to:
Support higher stock prices (especially in large caps and tech)
Provide upside to Bitcoin, XRP, and other crypto assets
Drive flows into emerging markets and commodities
With dollar strength waning, traders and institutions may rotate heavily into risk-on trades to front-run 2026 macro shifts.
Bottom Line
Morgan Stanley’s call is clear: rate cuts are coming, the dollar is weakening, and risk assets are positioned to benefit.
As the greenback loses steam, expect crypto and equities to surge — especially if the Fed confirms the pivot in coming months.

FLORIDA TO SCRAP CAPITAL GAINS TAX ON BITCOIN, XRP, AND STOCKS — A GAME-CHANGER FOR CRYPTO IN AMERICA
In a bold move that could reshape U.S. crypto policy, Florida has introduced legislation to eliminate state capital gains tax on Bitcoin, XRP, and traditional stocks, sending bullish signals across the markets.
State-Level Tax Break Could Supercharge Crypto Adoption
Backed by Governor Ron DeSantis and Florida’s GOP leadership, the bill would:
Remove capital gains tax at the state level for profits from crypto and stock investments
Increase investor returns, making Florida more attractive to crypto traders and fintech firms
Position the state as a potential crypto capital of the U.S.
🔸 Federal capital gains tax still applies — only Congress can change that.
Markets React: BTC and XRP Climb
In the 24 hours following the announcement:
Bitcoin (BTC) rose 2.4%, trading near $109,835
XRP jumped 2.2% to $2.34
📊 Growth Trends:
Asset 30-Day 3-Month
BTC +16.55% +19.6%
XRP +5.42% +2.71%
Some analysts predict Bitcoin could hit $135,000 if this momentum continues.
In Sync With Trump’s National Pro-Crypto Push
This legislation mirrors President Trump’s federal crypto agenda:
Advocates pro-blockchain policies
Has support across 27 Republican-led states
Could inspire a wave of similar tax reform bills
Mixed Public Response
Supporters say:
Could make Florida the #1 crypto-friendly state
Will attract VCs, builders, and high-net-worth investors
Critics argue:
Might complicate filings and cause clashes with federal tax rules
Risks regulatory confusion across state-federal lines
hy It Matters: This Could Spark Nationwide Crypto Tax Reform
If Florida’s bill passes:
Other GOP-led states may follow suit
Federal lawmakers may face increased pressure to modernize crypto tax policy
Could create a more unified, investor-friendly U.S. crypto landscape
Bottom Line
Florida isn’t just tweaking its tax code—it may be igniting the next phase of U.S. crypto regulation. Whether you’re holding BTC, XRP, or just watching the policy tide, this bill deserves your full attention.
