Physical Gold Rising as Basel III Bites

Physical Gold Rising as Basel III Bites

Kinesis Money:  7-4-2025

In a recent illuminating session of Kinesis Money’s “Live from the Vault,” renowned precious metals expert Andrew Maguire and market analyst Craig Hemke posed a compelling and controversial question: are escalating Middle East tensions being deliberately staged to divert global attention?

Specifically, from China’s burgeoning trade corridor initiatives and the upcoming BRICS summit – events that signal a profound shift towards physical asset settlement on the global stage.

The experts posited that while geopolitical flashpoints dominate headlines, the true tectonic plates of global finance are shifting beneath the surface.

These developments, ranging from China’s expanding economic reach to the BRICS alliance’s increasing influence, fundamentally challenge the existing fiat-dominated financial system by championing a return to tangible, physically-backed trade.

Adding another layer to this complex analysis, Craig Hemke highlighted the noticeable return of headline-driven market volatility, reminiscent of previous eras, particularly under the current political landscape with Donald Trump. This heightened responsiveness to breaking news, they argue, often obscures the deeper, more fundamental economic shifts occurring out of sight.

Maguire and Hemke then pivoted to their core thesis, reaffirming a long-held conviction among many in the precious metals community: the inexorable path towards fiat currency collapse.

This systemic vulnerability, they contend, is now unequivocally exposing the inherent flaws and ultimate fragility of the “paper gold” system. Faced with this revelation, the global financial landscape is witnessing an accelerating pivot towards transparent, physically settled trading – a move towards assets with intrinsic value, free from counterparty risk and fractional reserve manipulation.

The insights from Kinesis Money’s “Live from the Vault” offer a crucial perspective, urging viewers to look beyond the immediate headlines and understand the underlying forces reshaping the global economy.

As nations and investors increasingly seek stability in turbulent times, the move towards physical settlement, particularly in assets like gold and silver, appears to be not just a trend, but a fundamental reorientation of global finance.

For a deeper dive into these critical discussions and further expert analysis, interested individuals are encouraged to watch the full video from Kinesis Money featuring Andrew Maguire and Craig Hemke.

The World Quietly Moves on From the US Dollar
Global powers begin de-dollarization amid growing distrust in U.S. financial policy

The U.S. dollar’s dominance—long upheld by geopolitical strength and economic influence—is now facing its sharpest challenge yet. But the erosion is not being caused by market collapse or foreign sabotage. Instead, it's being driven by what many call the overuse and weaponization of the currency by Washington itself.

From Russia to Iran and Belarus, the White House’s sanctions strategy has left a trail of crippled economies and frozen assets. The sweeping penalties have not only disrupted trade flows and revenue generation but also undermined the credibility of the dollar as a neutral global tender.

“The weaponization of the U.S. dollar has gone too far,” emerging economies have repeatedly warned.

Unlike the British pound—once the global reserve before the 1940s—the U.S. dollar has increasingly been used as a policy lever. While Britain wielded military might, it rarely applied financial tools to isolate nations. The dollar’s use as a strategic bludgeon has now led many central banks to quietly start moving away from it.

World Central Banks Begin Dollar Diversification

Despite remaining the most dominant currency on Earth—with 86% of international transactions settled in USD—the greenback is no longer viewed as universally reliable. Instead, the global financial community is beginning to reevaluate its role and risk exposure.

With the U.S. national debt surpassing $36 trillion, emerging markets are especially wary. Economic leaders are reacting by diversifying their foreign reserves, turning to gold, the Chinese yuan, and other regional currencies.

There’s also growing concern about the IMF and World Bank, which operate under a system deeply intertwined with U.S. financial control. These institutions offer little structural space for competing currencies, further solidifying the dollar’s dominance—but at the cost of fairness and inclusivity.

De-Dollarization Accelerates

Trust is the cornerstone of any financial system, and today, that trust in the U.S. dollar is fraying fast. The consequences of economic coercion are becoming clearer, and global leaders are moving not in protest—but in quiet determination—to reduce dependency.

“To rebuild trust, the U.S. must stop using the dollar as a weapon,” the article notes. “And it must foster global partnerships, not economic pressure.”

If the trend continues, the greenback may enter an accelerated path of decline, not through collapse, but through irrelevance—displaced by a multipolar reserve structure already taking shape in boardrooms around the world.

The world isn’t sounding an alarm.
It’s walking away—quietly.

Will Tether’s USDT Get Banned in the US When the GENIUS Act Becomes Law?
New stablecoin rules threaten Tether’s US presence amid rising regulatory scrutiny

▪️ The GENIUS Act gives stablecoin issuers 18 to 36 months to comply with new transparency rules—or face a market ban.
▪️ Tether must choose between compliance, withdrawal, or launching a separate U.S.-compliant stablecoin.
▪️ Circle’s USDC could gain ground if Tether exits the American market.

Once the GENIUS Act is signed into law, stablecoin issuers will face a ticking clock: they’ll have 18 to 36 months to fully comply with sweeping new regulations—or be banned from operating in the United States.

At the heart of this regulatory overhaul is Tether, the issuer of USDT, the world’s largest stablecoin. Known for its limited transparency and lack of audited reserves, Tether now stands at a crossroads.

A New Regulatory Era for Stablecoins

The GENIUS Act aims to integrate stablecoins into traditional finance, creating a framework of regulatory safeguards for what are often the least volatile digital assets. While the bill is a milestone victory for the crypto industry, not all players are likely to survive its scrutiny.

USDT—which controls more than 60% of the global stablecoin market—could become a casualty. The bill demands regular audits, reserve transparency, AML/KYC enforcement, and technological capabilities to freeze or seize assets under lawful authority.

The Senate version provides a 3-year timeline. The House version cuts it to just 18 months.

Tether’s Troubled History with Transparency

Even before the GENIUS Act, Tether faced long-standing criticism for its lack of independent audits and opaque reserve reporting.

In 2021, the company settled with the New York Attorney General, paying $18.5 million and agreeing to exit the New York market after being accused of misleading claims about its fiat backing. The case revealed that $850 million had gone missing, and Bitfinex had used Tether reserves to cover the loss—meaning USDT was not fully backed for a period.

Since then, Tether has begun issuing quarterly attestations—but these still fall short of what the GENIUS Act will require.

Sanctions, Seizures & Scrutiny

Tether has also been under fire for enabling illicit financial activity. Accusations have included stablecoin usage by sanctioned entities in Russia and North Korea.

In response, Tether has increased cooperation with U.S. law enforcement. It froze $23 million in assets at the request of the U.S. Secret Service and has collaborated with the DOJ and FBI.

However, the GENIUS Act now makes such measures mandatory, not voluntary—requiring all stablecoin issuers to freeze assets, implement AML/KYC protocols, and comply with U.S. law enforcement across the board.

Can USDT Survive Without the U.S.?

Tether's dominance is undeniable, with a circulating supply of nearly 158 billion USDT—more than double that of second-place Circle’s USDC (62 billion).

Yet Tether’s core business isn’t U.S.-centric. Its largest trading volumes come from Asia, Latin America, and emerging markets—primarily through global platforms like Binance.

USDT trading volume exceeded $62 billion in a single day—mostly outside the U.S.

This raises the question: Would a U.S. withdrawal even hurt Tether? Perhaps not immediately—but it could send damaging signals to regulators, institutional investors, and traditional finance.

A Withdrawal Could Hurt More Than Help

Exiting the U.S. would sever access to a vital hub of financial innovation and liquidity. It would also invite loss of confidence, reinforcing the perception that Tether is unwilling—or unable—to meet robust standards.

Meanwhile, Circle’s USDC, which is fully compliant and actively adjusting to U.S. and EU regulations, would stand to gain significant market share.

However, even Circle’s advantage may not be enough to dethrone Tether without regulatory support or additional shifts in market dynamics.

Room for Compromise Still Exists

The GENIUS Act still needs to be reconciled with the House’s STABLE Act, offering room for negotiation on timelines and foreign issuer provisions.

A source close to the legislative process suggested both Congress and Tether may seek middle ground, noting that Tether’s massive U.S. Treasury holdings help support the dollar.

“Tether’s demand for U.S. Treasuries is larger than Germany’s. Forcing a full exit could destabilize demand for U.S. debt,” the source said.

A US-Based Tether Stablecoin in the Works?

Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino confirmed that the company plans to launch a separate, US-compliant stablecoin later this year—distinct from USDT and tailored to American regulations.

While this could offer a legal workaround, it also introduces operational headaches, regulatory duplication, and unnecessary complexity.

“They probably would prefer not to do that—it’s not ideal,” said the anonymous source.

What’s Next for Tether?

The GENIUS Act represents the most serious regulatory challenge Tether has ever faced. Whether it adapts, exits, or splits into separate compliant entities will define the next chapter of stablecoin evolution.

The world’s most widely used stablecoin must now choose: conform, divide, or retreat.

Iran, Part of BRICS, Threatens Brazil’s Push for Global Reform

Rising geopolitical tensions challenge Brazil’s leadership of BRICS ahead of Rio summit, as Iran’s presence tests unity and derails reform agenda.

As Brazil prepares to host the 17th BRICS Summit in Rio de Janeiro on July 6–7, escalating geopolitical rifts—particularly involving Iran—are threatening to derail President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva’s global reform agenda. The tensions are drawing new lines within the bloc just as Brazil takes the helm of the newly expanded BRICS alliance.

Brazil’s Reform Agenda Meets Iranian Resistance

Under Lula’s leadership, Brazil hoped to use its BRICS presidency to promote a platform centered on:

▪️ Democratic multilateralism
▪️ Inclusive global governance reform
▪️ Green energy transition
▪️ Expanded vaccine cooperation
▪️ Fair trade policies

However, Iran’s inclusion in BRICS has created immediate and unprecedented challenges to this vision. Following renewed Iran-Israel hostilities, tensions within the group have heightened significantly, shifting the spotlight from economic reform to geopolitical friction.

“Iran’s presence is fundamentally altering the group’s direction,” say policy analysts, pointing out that Brazil’s diplomatic agenda is now overshadowed by hardline sovereignty narratives and authoritarian alignment.

A Struggle for BRICS Unity Amid Autocratic Drift

The entrance of Iran—along with Russia, China, and other authoritarian-leaning members—has shifted BRICS further from the democratic ideals that Brazil hoped to promote.

▪️ Iran has confirmed it will send a delegation to Rio, prompting fears that summit discussions will lean toward anti-West sovereignty statements rather than constructive reform.

▪️ The growing autocratic tilt undermines Brazil’s inclusive agenda and raises doubts about BRICS’s capacity for collective action.

▪️ Global instability—spurred by Russia’s war in Ukraine and Middle East tensions—is being described as a “dangerous distraction” from the bloc’s stated priorities.

“Brazil’s challenge is managing reform in a club where several members are more focused on geopolitical posturing than economic collaboration,” said Dr. Christopher Sabatini, senior fellow for Latin America at Chatham House.

Strategic Realignment May Be Brazil’s Best Bet

Facing this friction, Brazil may be forced to forge smaller coalitions within BRICS—particularly with more aligned partners like India and Indonesia—to salvage aspects of its original reform plan.

▪️ Limited cooperation on climate change, infrastructure, and trade reform could still emerge through bilateral or trilateral deals.

▪️ Lula’s administration may have to lower expectations for sweeping multilateral consensus at the summit due to widening internal divisions.

▪️ Still, Brazil’s presidency could be considered a success if it sidesteps ideological gridlock and instead champions tangible, issue-specific outcomes.

While the BRICS summit in Rio was envisioned as a platform for emerging market leadership, it has become a test of whether the bloc can maintain cohesion in the face of mounting internal contradictions. Iran’s role in BRICS—once viewed as symbolic—is now central to the debate over the organization’s future identity and global credibility.

The World Quietly Moves on From the US Dollar
Global sentiment shifts as currency weaponization fuels reserve diversification

Decades of U.S. dollar dominance are quietly unraveling—not through manipulation or market failures, but through currency weaponization. The White House’s overreach with economic sanctions has pushed even long-standing partners to reassess their reliance on the greenback.

From Russia to Iran, Belarus, and beyond, the U.S. has levied sanctions that have crippled national economies, isolating them from global trade. Despite repeated warnings from emerging economies, the U.S. continued to treat its currency as a tool of coercion. This has now sparked a widespread—but quiet—departure from the dollar.

Historically, the British pound, the global reserve currency before the 1940s, maintained its role without resorting to weaponization. In contrast, the U.S. dollar—though still dominant—is increasingly perceived as a liability, rather than an asset.

Central Banks Begin Diversifying Reserves

While the U.S. dollar remains central to global finance—involved in over 86% of transactions worldwide—confidence is eroding. Nations are no longer viewing the dollar as a financial solution but rather a growing problem, particularly in light of America’s $36 trillion national debt and its role in enforcing economic punishments.

In response, central banks are diversifying into gold and local currencies, hedging against the risks tied to U.S. fiscal policy and dollar-dependency. Officials are openly questioning the neutrality of global institutions like the IMF and World Bank, which operate firmly within the dollar-based framework.

Weaponization Accelerates De-Dollarization

The most alarming trend? The U.S. dollar is no longer viewed as neutral. The perception of its use as a geopolitical weapon has undermined the trust required to sustain its global supremacy.

Experts warn: unless the U.S. changes course, it could face a historic decline in dollar hegemony.

"To restore trust, the United States must stop using its currency as a weapon and instead support fair economic development globally," the article notes.

The de-dollarization movement is gaining traction—not as a loud rebellion, but as a strategic recalibration. The rest of the world is moving on. Quietly. Deliberately. And possibly, permanently.

House GOP Declares ‘Crypto Week’ to Advance Landmark Digital Asset Bills

House Republicans launch a coordinated push to transform U.S. crypto regulation—while halting central bank digital currency plans.

The U.S. House of Representatives is set to make cryptocurrency a legislative priority during the week of July 14, as House Republicans declare “Crypto Week”—a focused legislative campaign aimed at reshaping digital asset regulation and blocking the issuance of a Federal Reserve-backed central bank digital currency (CBDC).

The effort is part of former President Donald Trump’s broader policy strategy to establish the U.S. as a global leader in blockchain innovation and crypto competitiveness.

Three Key Bills Take Center Stage

During Crypto Week, House leadership will spotlight three critical pieces of legislation:

• The CLARITY Act

• The Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act

• The GENIUS Act

“After years of dedicated work in Congress on digital assets, we are advancing landmark legislation to establish a clear regulatory framework,” said Rep. French Hill (R-AR), Chair of the House Financial Services Committee.

The bills aim to deliver regulatory certainty, protect consumer rights, and prohibit the Federal Reserve from issuing a CBDC—a digital version of the U.S. dollar that critics argue would endanger financial privacy.

Legislative Milestones Already Achieved

The groundwork for Crypto Week has already been laid:

• In April, the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act passed out of committee with a 27–22 vote.

• In June, the CLARITY Act was approved by both the House Financial Services and Agriculture Committees. The bill seeks to remove the SEC’s current oversight authority over crypto.

• That same month, the GENIUS Act cleared the Senate and now awaits a House vote.

“Time and again, we have heard the calls for regulatory clarity,” said Rep. GT Thompson (R-PA), Chair of the Agriculture Committee. “It will soon be time for the House to deliver for the American people and send CLARITY to the Senate.”

Crypto Week Signals a Turning Point

Rep. Tom Emmer (R-MN), a leading crypto advocate in Congress, said that the legislation represents a commitment to financial privacy and free-market innovation.

“American innovators are one step closer to having the clarity they need to build here at home,” Emmer said, “while ensuring the future of the digital economy reflects our values of privacy, individual sovereignty, and free-market competitiveness.”

Senator Cynthia Lummis (R-WY) emphasized that this federal momentum mirrors the trailblazing work already done at the state level.

“In Wyoming, we’ve worked for nearly a decade to embrace digital assets. It’s exciting to see the federal government beginning to follow in the Cowboy State’s footsteps.”

Lummis confirmed she is working closely with Rep. Hill and Rep. Thompson on comprehensive stablecoin legislation, adding:

“We must ensure any CBDC respects Americans’ privacy and financial freedom.”

As Crypto Week approaches, momentum continues to build for a comprehensive redefinition of how the U.S. treats digital assets—shifting the country’s position from reactive oversight to proactive leadership.

US Senator Cynthia Lummis Drafts Standalone Crypto Tax Bill

Wyoming lawmaker seeks to overhaul digital asset taxation—cutting red tape, ending double taxation, and boosting U.S. innovation.

Senator Cynthia Lummis (R-WY) introduced a standalone draft bill on Thursday to modernize the U.S. tax code for digital assets—after previous attempts to include crypto reforms in the federal budget package failed.

The new legislation is designed to provide regulatory clarity and eliminate double taxation on crypto transactions involving staking, mining, and lending.

Key Provisions:

▪️ A de minimis exemption for crypto capital gains under $300 per transaction, with an annual cap of $5,000
▪️ Tax deferral on staking and mining rewards until the underlying assets are sold
▪️ Exemptions for crypto lending agreements and charitable donations involving digital assets

“This groundbreaking legislation is fully paid for, cuts through the bureaucratic red tape, and establishes common-sense rules that reflect how digital technologies function in the real world,” said Lummis.

“We cannot allow our archaic tax policies to stifle American innovation. My legislation ensures Americans can participate in the digital economy without inadvertent tax violations.”

The standalone bill is now the primary legislative vehicle for Lummis to fulfill her pro-crypto policy promises, particularly after Congress advanced the 2025 budget without incorporating any digital asset tax reforms.

Crypto Taxation Remains a Flashpoint

Across the U.S. crypto landscape, unclear and inefficient tax rules continue to frustrate investors, developers, and businesses.

A particular area of concern is the treatment of decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols and non-custodial platforms, where developers do not hold user funds or control consensus. Without updated tax code language, these actors risk being misclassified as money transmitters and subjected to reporting obligations designed for centralized financial institutions.

In June, lawmakers introduced an amendment to the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025—exempting DeFi developers from these requirements. That amendment, if retained in the final version of the bill, would protect innovation by distinguishing between centralized and decentralized projects.

A Race Against Time

U.S. lawmakers are working urgently to finalize crypto-related language in the upcoming federal spending bill, now headed to President Donald Trump’s desk. Whether Lummis’s proposals make it into law through this new standalone bill or are folded into broader packages remains to be seen.

But with bipartisan attention intensifying around crypto taxation, Lummis’s bill may mark a pivotal shift toward fairer, innovation-friendly tax treatment for U.S. digital asset holders.

Grotesque Debt Crisis Set to Explode

Grotesque Debt Crisis Set to Explode

Commodity Culture:   7-3-2025

In a recent illuminating discussion on Jesse Day’s ‘Commodity Culture,’ financial strategist Matthew Piepenburg delivered a stark warning about a looming crisis born from the convergence of escalating global conflict, unprecedented levels of government debt, and dangerously overinflated financial markets.

Piepenburg’s analysis paints a grim picture of a future where a massive debt crisis could erase wealth in the blink of an eye, urging investors to consider unconventional strategies for survival.

Piepenburg posits that these three seemingly disparate elements are inextricably linked, forming a feedback loop of instability. He argues that the “insane levels of government debt” accumulated globally are not merely an economic burden but a systemic weakness, making nations more prone to geopolitical tensions as they scramble for resources or face internal pressures.

This fragility, he contends, is exacerbated by financial markets that have soared to unsustainable heights, decoupled from underlying economic realities, creating a “bubble” vulnerable to the slightest tremor.

The consequence of this precarious balance, according to Piepenburg, is an impending debt crisis unlike any seen before. He warns that this isn’t a slow-burn recession, but a rapid, wealth-destroying event.

“Trillions of cracks” are forming within the global financial system, he explains, waiting for the right catalyst – be it a geopolitical shock, a market crash, or a sovereign debt default – to shatter the entire edifice. Such an event, he stresses, would not discriminate, potentially wiping out a lifetime of savings for those unprepared.

Amidst this dire forecast, Piepenburg offers a lifeline: precious metals. He makes a compelling case for gold, describing it as the “last asset standing” when traditional markets crumble. Its historical role as a store of value, independent of government solvency or corporate earnings, makes it a critical hedge against systemic collapse.

 Intriguingly, Piepenburg also highlights silver, suggesting it could “speed past gold” in a crisis scenario. Its dual role as both a monetary metal and an industrial commodity could give it explosive upside as demand for tangible assets surges and supply potentially tightens.

Piepenburg’s insights on ‘Commodity Culture’ serve as a crucial wake-up call for investors and citizens alike. His detailed breakdown of the interdependencies between global conflict, sovereign debt, and market overvaluation offers a chilling, yet vital, perspective on the current economic landscape. While the future remains uncertain, his analysis strongly suggests that a paradigm shift in wealth preservation strategies may be not just advisable, but essential.

For a deeper dive into Matthew Piepenburg’s comprehensive analysis, including the specific ‘cracks’ he identifies and the catalysts he monitors, viewers are urged to watch the full discussion on Commodity Culture.

India Explains the Main Agenda for BRICS 2025 Summit

India becomes the first BRICS nation to publicly outline the summit's goals—signaling a coordinated push toward a multipolar world order and Global South leadership.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is on a five-nation diplomatic tour ahead of the 17th BRICS Summit, set to take place in Rio de Janeiro on July 6–7, 2025. His final destination: Brazil, where leaders from the BRICS alliance will gather to discuss a new financial and geopolitical future.

For the first time, one of the founding BRICS nations has offered a public glimpse into the summit’s agenda, revealing a bold push toward a balanced multipolar world order—a system designed to reduce dependence on U.S. and Western financial structures.

“As a founding member, India is committed to BRICS as a vital platform for cooperation among emerging economies. Together, we strive for a more peaceful, equitable, just, democratic, and balanced multipolar world order,” said Modi in an official statement.

BRICS 2025: India’s Roadmap for a New Financial Era

India confirmed that key topics on the summit agenda will include:

• Reducing reliance on Western financial systems

• Increasing cooperation among developing economies

• Establishing a more democratic, accountable world order

• Strengthening the voice and financial power of the Global South

The announcement comes at a time when BRICS nations are expanding their roles in global finance, exploring non-dollar trade settlements, and advocating for institutional reform at the IMF, World Bank, and UN.

“The visit will provide an opportunity to strengthen our close partnership with Brazil, and work with my friend, President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, on advancing the priorities of the Global South,” Modi added.

A Multipolar Vision Gains Momentum

While India emphasized that BRICS is not inherently anti-U.S., the bloc seeks to build an alternative financial system that amplifies the sovereignty of member states. The alliance has made clear that it views financial diversification and mutual development as the cornerstone of global stability.

India’s rare move to disclose the summit’s main agenda underscores its leadership ambitions within BRICS and reflects the bloc’s growing desire for transparency and direction.

The summit in Rio is expected to draw global attention as BRICS continues to challenge the unipolar dominance of the West with its expanding influence, economic cooperation, and commitment to reshaping global governance.

US and EU Talks Signal Acceleration Toward Global Crypto Policy Alignment

BRUSSELS – July 1, 2025 – In a major signal of growing transatlantic alignment, U.S. and European Union financial regulators have intensified coordination on digital asset policies, including stablecoins, crypto oversight, and central bank digital currencies (CBDCs). The announcement follows high-level discussions at the EU-U.S. Joint Financial Regulatory Forum, held June 24–25 in Brussels.

The talks, co-chaired by the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the European Commission, reflect a shared urgency to harmonize crypto regulation across jurisdictions amid the accelerating global adoption of digital finance.

Regulatory Convergence Gains Momentum

The U.S. Treasury noted that the meeting placed digital finance at the forefront, with regulators exchanging updates on key crypto priorities:

• The EU shared progress on the rollout of its Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) Regulation.

• Updates were provided on the development of the Digital Euro.

• The Financial Stability Board’s work on crypto risks and stablecoin oversight was also discussed.

• U.S. officials gave an update on SEC enforcement, crypto asset policy, and cybersecurity initiatives.

“Participants continued their exchange of views on digital finance matters,” the Treasury stated, highlighting a shared recognition of the need for coordinated oversight of the crypto sector.

Global Push for Secure Cross-Border Payment Systems

The Forum also emphasized the G20 Roadmap for Enhancing Cross-Border Payments, a key international effort to improve speed, cost, transparency, and accessibility of global financial transfers. EU regulators shared updates on the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), while U.S. officials focused on infrastructure security and digital resilience.

The two sides appear to be converging on a cohesive framework that could guide the future of crypto regulation globally.

Balancing Innovation and Systemic Risk

Despite persistent skepticism over crypto volatility and regulatory loopholes, regulators from both continents acknowledged that greater policy coordination could enhance stability while avoiding regulatory arbitrage. Industry advocates continue to call for clear, interoperable rules that support innovation without undermining financial safeguards.

“This is a defining moment,” said a senior digital finance analyst. “We’re watching the foundations of a global crypto framework being laid brick by brick.”

As regulatory talks between the U.S. and EU deepen, the path toward mainstream crypto integration becomes clearer, signaling a potential standardization of global digital asset rules in the years ahead.

Ripple Boosts RLUSD Adoption With Embedded Finance and Payment Features

LONDON – July 2, 2025 – In a bold push to expand the real-world adoption of its enterprise-grade stablecoin, Ripple has partnered with financial infrastructure provider Openpayd to enable embedded finance and seamless fiat-to-stablecoin transactions through a unified global platform.

The move enhances Ripple USD (RLUSD) as a powerful bridge between blockchain-native payments and traditional fiat banking—paving the way for broader enterprise usage in cross-border payments and treasury management.

Ripple and Openpayd Launch Unified Fiat + Stablecoin Solution

Under the new partnership, Openpayd will embed its fiat infrastructure—including multi-currency accounts, virtual IBANs, and real-time payment rails—directly into Ripple Payments, Ripple’s flagship cross-border payment network spanning over 90 payout markets globally.

"Businesses will be able to seamlessly convert between fiat and RLUSD," Openpayd confirmed, "accessing embedded accounts, trading, and payment features through a single API."

One of the most important additions: direct minting and burning capabilities for RLUSD, allowing enterprises to scale their stablecoin use while remaining compliant and efficient.

Stablecoin Liquidity Meets Enterprise Needs

The integration makes it significantly easier for businesses to:

• Embed stablecoin functionality within their financial operations

• Send and receive EUR and GBP through Ripple’s global payment rails

• Streamline access to U.S. dollar liquidity using RLUSD

This builds on RLUSD’s core positioning as a trusted, compliant, USD-pegged stablecoin designed for high-volume enterprise use cases.

Jack McDonald, Ripple’s SVP of Stablecoins, emphasized the importance of cross-network utility:
“The future of global finance depends on seamless interoperability between traditional infrastructure and digital assets.”

Toward Scalable, Real-World Adoption

The collaboration comes at a time of mounting demand for real-time, stable, and globally interoperable financial infrastructure—especially as enterprises seek to modernize their treasury systems and cut the cost and friction of legacy banking networks.

“This is how we accelerate real-world adoption of stablecoins at scale,” said McDonald, highlighting Ripple’s long-term vision for RLUSD.

As Ripple continues to embed digital assets into traditional payment systems, this partnership offers a compelling blueprint for stablecoin-enabled embedded finance across both crypto and fiat worlds.

China Increases Quota for Foreign Investments Ahead of BRICS 2025 Summit

BEIJING – July 2025 – In a strategic economic maneuver ahead of the 17th BRICS Summit in Brazil, China has raised its foreign investment quota by $3.1 billion, signaling confidence in its domestic markets and leveraging global economic shifts to strengthen its position within the BRICS alliance.

According to the State Administration of Foreign Exchange (SAFE), the quota for Qualified Domestic Institutional Investors (QDII) has been increased from $167.8 billion to $170.9 billion, effective July 1, 2025. This move comes amid a surge of institutional capital inflows and a significant drop in the U.S. dollar’s strength.

USD Weakness Drives Global Capital Toward China

China’s quota expansion is seen as a response to growing foreign interest in Chinese assets, fueled by the U.S. dollar index (DXY) falling to its lowest level in three years. The dollar has depreciated by 10.5% year-to-date, weakening demand for traditional U.S.-based financial instruments like Treasuries and bonds.

“China is capitalizing on a historic drop in the dollar’s dominance by opening the gates to more global capital,” noted a market analyst. “This quota hike sends a signal that Beijing is prepared to lead economically within BRICS.”

Even Chinese retail investors have pivoted away from U.S. stocks in 2025, favoring regional investments instead. Capital inflows from mainland China into the Hong Kong stock exchange have reached $93 billion so far this year.

Hang Seng Index Sees 23% Surge in 2025

China's increased openness to foreign capital is bolstering the Hang Seng Index, which has already jumped 23% year-to-date. Bullish investor sentiment continues to mount, positioning China’s stock market as one of the most attractive destinations for global investors in 2025.

The quota increase is widely seen as a calculated move to secure leverage at the BRICS 2025 Summit, scheduled for July 6–7 in Rio de Janeiro. As the bloc increasingly explores de-dollarization strategies and alternative trade alliances, China’s robust financial posture could prove pivotal in shaping the summit’s economic agenda.

Strategic Timing for Global Economic Influence

By expanding the QDII quota just a week before the BRICS summit, China is strengthening its influence within the alliance and paving the way for new trade deals and partnerships. The move also enhances China’s image as a resilient, investment-friendly economy, especially amid shifting global monetary dynamics.

“China’s calculated adjustment to foreign investment policy could help it emerge as the key economic force within BRICS,” said an international finance observer.

SEC Approves First Spot ETF with XRP Exposure

WASHINGTON, D.C. – July 2, 2025 – In a landmark regulatory move, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has officially approved the first spot Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) with direct exposure to XRP, the native digital asset of the Ripple network.

This decision marks a historic moment for both XRP and the broader crypto industry, opening the doors for institutional and retail investors to gain regulated exposure to XRP through traditional financial markets.

XRP Enters the ETF Era

The ETF approval is the first of its kind to offer direct access to XRP’s market performance via a spot trading product—rather than futures contracts or synthetic exposure. This regulatory greenlight signals growing confidence among U.S. regulators in digital assets as viable components of diversified investment portfolios.

“This is a pivotal step for the institutional adoption of XRP,” noted a digital asset strategist. “It brings credibility and accessibility to an asset that has long battled regulatory uncertainty.”

Mainstream Finance Embraces XRP

The move follows a wave of crypto-related ETF approvals earlier this year for Bitcoin and Ethereum. However, XRP’s inclusion in this regulatory trend is especially significant, given its history of legal battles with the SEC—a lawsuit that was partially resolved in Ripple’s favor in 2023.

Now, with a spot ETF on the table, XRP is positioned to gain broader exposure among wealth managers, hedge funds, and pension portfolios seeking compliant crypto investments.

The market implications could be substantial, as ETF inflows often act as a tailwind for underlying assets by increasing demand and liquidity.

Momentum Toward Crypto Market Maturity

The XRP ETF approval highlights the SEC’s evolving stance on digital assets, suggesting further regulatory clarity and market maturity are on the horizon. As traditional finance increasingly converges with blockchain-based assets, products like the XRP spot ETF help bridge the gap between legacy finance and Web3 innovation.

“We’re witnessing the normalization of crypto within the financial system,” said a fintech policy analyst. “XRP’s ETF listing is not just a win for Ripple—it’s a milestone for the entire asset class.”

The ETF is expected to begin trading in the coming weeks, with more details forthcoming regarding its issuer, custodial arrangements, and ticker symbol.

Tues. 1 July 2025 FORT KNOX EXPOSED — THE AUDIT THAT NEVER HAPPENED …QFS on Telegram

Somewhere deep in the hills of Kentucky, behind 22-ton blast doors and layers of electric fencing, lies the most guarded vault in the United States: Fort Knox. Said to hold over 147 million ounces of gold—worth more than $300 billion—it remains the most iconic symbol of American wealth.

But for nearly 70 years, no one has truly seen what’s inside. No full audit. No independent verification. Just stories, old photos, and silence. In early 2025, President Trump promised to break that silence. For a moment, the world held its breath. But then, he backed down. Quietly. No audit. No explanation. Just another broken promise surrounded by classified whispers and redirected attention.

The last time anyone outside the government was allowed inside was in 1974—a small group of reporters and officials invited for a one-time “gold viewing.” No inventory, no counting, no serial numbers. Just a glance at a few open cages and then the vault was sealed again. Since then, decades of partial checks, Treasury statements, and scripted tours have replaced any attempt at true transparency.

 And when Trump proposed a full-scale audit in 2025, the excitement was immediate. But just as quickly, it vanished. White House aides claimed the gold conspiracy was “debunked.” National security warnings appeared. The Treasury distanced itself. The vault remained closed.

But the pressure didn’t end there. On June 6, Representative Thomas Massie introduced the Gold Reserve Transparency Act—calling for independent audits, bar counts, and public reports. It demanded photos. Serial numbers. Yearly inspections.

But the bill was buried in committee, smothered by political silence. No audit teams were sent. No plans were released. And Fort Knox, once again, became a monument to secrets. The same question keeps returning, louder every time: Is the gold even there?

Because if it is—why not prove it? A full audit would take about a year. It would show whether bars were sold, leased, pledged, or even replaced. It would reveal if serial numbers match historic records, if purity checks out, and if the vault holds truth—or fiction. But to this day, not one administration—Republican or Democrat—has dared open the full books. That tells us something. And it’s not confidence.

In a time of inflation, digital illusions, and collapsing trust in institutions, gold is more than metal. It’s stability. It’s proof. It’s accountability. And yet, America’s most sacred vault remains sealed. Untouchable. Unverified.

That silence isn’t just suspicious. It’s corrosive. Because in 2025, when people demand answers, refusing to open the doors means only one thing: someone’s afraid of what’s behind them.

How The World Is Quietly Preparing for a Gold-Backed BRICS Currency

Gold Core TV:  7-1-2025

The upcoming #BRICS summit isn’t just another diplomatic gathering. It could mark a turning point in global finance.

 Behind the scenes, there are credible signals that the BRICS nations Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa are laying the groundwork for a new financial system.

One that might pivot away from the #USdollar and place commodities, especially gold, at its core.

In this video, we explore why this moment is different, and what it means for the future of money, power, and trust in a rapidly fragmenting world.

We cover: Why trust in the current global financial system is fading

How sanctions and asset freezes have pushed countries to rethink reserves

The strategic role of gold in bypassing politicized financial infrastructure

 BRICS settlement initiatives, currency realignment, and #gold as a neutral anchor

Record-breaking gold purchases by central banks around the world

Growing calls in Europe to repatriate sovereign gold reserves

 Why retail investors are lagging behind and what they may be missing

This isn’t about short-term price action. It’s about the signals behind the surge. Gold is being redefined from hedge to foundation, from asset to anchor.

Ripple and OpenPayd Partner to Deliver Enterprise-Ready Stablecoin and Payment Infrastructure

LONDON, UK – July 2, 2025 – In a landmark move for blockchain and fintech integration, Ripple has announced a strategic partnership with OpenPayd, a leading provider of financial infrastructure. The collaboration aims to deliver compliant, scalable, and efficient payment solutions for enterprise clients, bridging the gap between traditional finance and blockchain.

Unified Payment Rail for Enterprise Clients

Through the agreement, OpenPayd’s global fiat infrastructure — including real-time payment rails, multi-currency accounts, and virtual IBANs — will support Ripple Payments in EUR and GBP. Ripple Payments, the company’s cross-border payments platform, leverages blockchain and digital assets to offer fast, transparent, and reliable international transactions.

“Ripple has long been a pioneer in blockchain-based payments,” said Iana Dimitrova, Chief Executive at OpenPayd.
“By combining Ripple Payments with OpenPayd’s rail-agnostic and interoperable fiat infrastructure, we’re delivering a unified platform that simplifies global money movement and cross-border treasury management.”

Direct Access to RLUSD Stablecoin Infrastructure

The partnership also marks a major leap for stablecoin innovation. OpenPayd will enable direct minting and burning of Ripple USD (RLUSD), Ripple’s enterprise-grade, USD-denominated stablecoin. Businesses will gain seamless access to embedded accounts, payments, trading, and fiat–stablecoin conversion — all via a single API.

“The future of global finance depends on seamless interoperability between traditional infrastructure and digital assets,” said Jack McDonald, SVP of Stablecoins at Ripple.
“Our collaboration with OpenPayd gives enterprises reliable access to RLUSD, combining the stability and compliance they expect with the blockchain connectivity they need.”

Enterprise-Scale Use Cases

This combined infrastructure supports a wide range of enterprise applications, including:

• Cross-border payments

• Global treasury management

• Dollar liquidity access at scale

• Stablecoin-powered dollar operations

As demand for real-time, compliant global infrastructure grows, the partnership aims to future-proof enterprise payment strategies.

Ripple’s Global Reach

Ripple Payments now covers 90+ payout markets, representing over 90% of global daily FX volume, with more than $70 billion processed to date. The company’s secure, regulatory-compliant infrastructure positions it as a leader in providing core digital asset services for financial institutions.

Big Beautiful Bill Passes Without Crypto Tax Relief – Snorter Bot Emerges as Market Alternative

WASHINGTON, D.C. – July 2025 – In a narrow 51–50 vote, the U.S. Senate has passed the 'One Big Beautiful Act,' a sweeping budget reconciliation bill backed by President Donald Trump. While the legislation delivers major fiscal reforms, it notably excludes crypto tax relief, despite strong lobbying from digital asset advocates.

The bill now returns to the House of Representatives for a second vote before heading to the president’s desk. But for now, crypto tax reform is off the table — a setback for the growing number of Americans using digital currencies in everyday life.

Senate Rejects Key Crypto Tax Amendment

Among the most anticipated proposals was an amendment by Senator Cynthia Lummis, which aimed to exempt crypto transactions under $300 from capital gains tax, capped at $5,000 annually. The amendment received vocal support from Gemini co-founder Tyler Winklevoss and BTC Inc.’s David Bailey, but was ultimately left out of the final package.

“It’s still a major step in the right direction,” said Lummis, calling the broader bill a win for “working families across Wyoming.”

Despite this optimism, the lack of tax clarity leaves many retail investors wary, especially when using crypto for small, everyday purchases. The omission also increases the appeal of decentralized platforms that bypass centralized tax reporting requirements.

Snorter Bot Offers a Workaround: Fast, Low-Fee Solana Trading

In contrast to legislative inaction, innovation in crypto trading is advancing rapidly. A standout example is the upcoming launch of Snorter Bot, a Telegram-based trading tool built on Solana, offering sub-second trade speeds and industry-low fees of just 0.85%.

The bot is designed to help users:

• Auto-snipe emerging tokens before they trend

• Flag potential scams and honeypots

• Execute trades faster than competitors like Maestro, Bonk Bot, and Banana Gun

Snorter Bot’s utility is powered by $SNORT, its native token. Holding $SNORT unlocks:

• Reduced trading fees

• Premium bot features

• Staking rewards up to 236% APY

• DAO voting rights for future platform upgrades

With over $1.4 million raised in presale since May 28, 2025, $SNORT is emerging as a powerful alternative for retail traders looking to stay agile amid regulatory limbo.

From Regulation Gridlock to On-Chain Agility

While the Senate’s decision may frustrate crypto enthusiasts, it underscores a growing reality: technology is evolving faster than regulation.

“As policymakers stall, Snorter could soon empower everyday users to make decentralized trades with unbeatable fees and real on-chain utility,” said a representative from the Snorter development team.

The project is also preparing to expand beyond Solana, eyeing major EVM-compatible chains to build a multi-chain, future-ready trading platform.

$SNORT is currently priced at $0.0971, with projections estimating a potential rise to $0.94 post-exchange listing — an 868% upside. However, as always in crypto: Do Your Own Research (DYOR) and never invest more than you’re prepared to lose.

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

BRICS To Discuss Rare Earth Supply & Exports at 2025 Summit

The BRICS alliance will place rare earth elements (REEs) front and center at its upcoming 17th summit, scheduled for July 6–7, 2025, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. For the first time, the 10-member bloc will be joined by 14 partner countries to engage in a pivotal dialogue on the future of global trade, currency settlements, and strategic resource management.

China Controls the Global REE Chain

BRICS member China currently dominates the rare earth sector, controlling:

• 70% of the global REE supply, and

• 90% of the world’s refining and processing capacity.

In a bold move this year, China imposed export curbs on rare earth magnets on April 4, 2025, in direct response to U.S. tariffs imposed under President Trump.

The freeze on global supplies has significantly tightened REE markets, sparking growing international demand — and positioning China as the most influential voice heading into the BRICS summit.

Strategic Talks to Rewrite Rare Earth Trade Framework

Brazil’s BRICS Ambassador Kenneth Nobrega confirmed the summit will include REE discussions, led by China. He emphasized:

“You have to be mindful that BRICS countries together contribute a huge chunk to the world’s REEs. This has to be discussed because this is a result of trade tensions not created by BRICS countries.”

While formal negotiations have not yet begun, the talks signal BRICS’ growing strategic influence over critical global supply chains, particularly as the alliance expands its coordination across trade, energy, and currency systems.

U.S. Faces Strategic Setback Amid Trade Wars

With BRICS already controlling 42% of the world’s oil and gas, the bloc’s influence over 70% of rare earth exports underscores a major geopolitical shift. China’s expected leadership at the summit aims to empower member nations to trade REEs without relying on U.S.-centric systems — potentially deepening the global divide over trade norms.

The United States, already impacted by export freezes and retaliatory tariffs, now risks falling behind in the rare earth supply race — a sector crucial for defense, electronics, EVs, and renewable energy.

As tensions rise, the Rio summit could redefine the global power balance over the minerals that power the modern world.
