QFS – THE QUANTUM FINANCIAL SYSTEM
QFS heals the economy. For centuries, money has been a weapon. Fiat currencies, interest, inflation — all engineered to drain nations and enslave individuals. Every paycheck stolen through taxes. Every loan chained with interest. Every war funded by invisible hands.
The Quantum Financial System is the antithesis of this corruption.
• 100% gold-backed and asset-based — no printing presses, no fabricated digits.
• Powered by quantum computers beyond the reach of hacking or manipulation.
• Every transaction validated in real time, recorded in transparency, immune to fraud.
The deah of SWIFT is already in progress. Nations quietly align with QFS. Central banks crumble. Hidden gold reserves — Vatican, BIS, and black funds — are being seized and rerouted into the new system.
What emerges is financial sovereignty: Your money is truly yours. Your wealth cannot be stolen by inflation or erased by debt. And for the first time in human history, prosperity is not a privilege — but a birthright.

Frank26 You're about to get your new exchange rate. Everything points in that direction because the enemy of your exchange rate is no longer your enemy... [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY: CBI is on the news and they're saying the inflation rate for this past quarter was only .8% compared to...over 3% during the same period in the year 2024. This is a good decrease of about 75%. This shows the strength of the dinar. It gives citizens more confidence for our purchasing power.
Militia Man The theme is Iraq is integrating into the global financial system. I think the evidence is quite clear. It's almost undeniable that that's the process. Obviously we don't know what day they're going to do that. We're not supposed to know that and obviously we're not going to know exactly what the rate is. We might have some good estimates. I don't think anybody truly knows that and by rights they shouldn't know that.
Nader From The Mid East There will not be any more devaluation of the dinar. There is many reason why...The inflation is a lot a lot a lot better. It's down to almost nothing. Second thing, all this investment. Third thing, the international coalition leaving...the government is stable now. It's very stable now...Things are doing a lot better so will not be any devaluation.
Fed Crashing Economy, Trump will Put an End to the Endless
Bix Weir - Trump Is Using The Gold In The Grand Canyon To Bring Down The [CB],Smithsonian Is The Key
X22 Report (with Bix Weir): 8-22-2025
Ever wonder if there’s more to our global financial system than meets the eye? The latest X22 Report features a captivating discussion with Bix Weir of Road To Roota, diving deep into claims that could redefine our understanding of economic power, hidden wealth, and the very foundation of currency.
Bix Weir, a name well-known in alternative financial circles, is not your typical banker. A former insider who transitioned into an outspoken analyst, Weir founded the Road to Roota website and YouTube channel to pull back the curtain on what he describes as systematic manipulations within the gold, silver, and cryptocurrency markets. He’s built a reputation for exploring theories that challenge mainstream narratives, and his latest insights shared on the X22 Report are no exception.
At the heart of Weir’s most compelling claims is the assertion that vast, unimaginable quantities of gold – potentially millions, or even billions, of ounces – lie hidden and untapped within restricted areas of the Grand Canyon. According to Weir, these immense reserves have been deliberately concealed by government entities, not just to keep them secret, but to maintain a powerful leverage over the global economy and sustain the current fiat currency system.
Imagine the implications: a hidden trove of wealth so immense it could literally reset the global financial landscape. But who would wield such a power, and for what purpose?
This is where the narrative takes a fascinating turn. Weir proposes that President Donald Trump is actively engaged in a strategic effort to dismantle the central banking system, including the powerful Federal Reserve. The ultimate goal, as Weir outlines, is to restore a constitutional gold standard and finally put an end to the dominance of fiat currency – a system where money is not backed by a physical commodity, but by government decree.
Weir points to Trump’s past actions and public statements as evidence, including his nominations of advocates for a gold standard to positions within the Fed, and his own musings on the topic. The idea is that this hidden Grand Canyon gold could be the ultimate weapon, the physical backing needed to launch a truly independent, value-based financial system, thereby rendering the current central banking model obsolete.
The X22 Report segment also hints at another intriguing piece of the puzzle: the Smithsonian Institution being “the key.” While the full context requires watching the report, this mention suggests a deeper layer of historical suppression or narrative control related to these hidden assets and their true significance in the grand scheme of economic and historical power. What secrets might the Smithsonian hold, and how do they connect to the gold in the Canyon and the potential overthrow of the Federal Reserve?
Whether you find these claims compelling or incredulous, Bix Weir’s insights offer a provocative perspective on the future of global finance. He paints a picture of a world on the cusp of a potential economic revolution, driven by hidden resources and a determined effort to reclaim financial sovereignty from central authorities.
For those eager to delve deeper into these extraordinary claims and understand the full scope of Bix Weir’s analysis, the full X22 Report video is essential viewing. It promises further insights into the intricate web connecting hidden gold, political will, and the future of our economic system.

What if one seemingly temporary financial decision, made decades ago, has profoundly shaped your economic reality today, from the value of your dollar to the global power balance?
That’s the powerful question at the heart of a recent video from Arcadia Economics, featuring the insightful Vince Lanci. The discussion dives deep into a pivotal moment in financial history: August 15, 1971, the day President Richard Nixon unilaterally severed the U.S. dollar’s link to gold.
The Dollar’s Down 99% Since Nixon Temporarily Took us off Gold Standard
Arcadia Economics: 8-20-2025
What if one seemingly temporary financial decision, made decades ago, has profoundly shaped your economic reality today, from the value of your dollar to the global power balance?
That’s the powerful question at the heart of a recent video from Arcadia Economics, featuring the insightful Vince Lanci. The discussion dives deep into a pivotal moment in financial history: August 15, 1971, the day President Richard Nixon unilaterally severed the U.S. dollar’s link to gold.
Dubbed the “Nixon Shock,” this decision effectively ended the Bretton Woods system, which had pegged the dollar to gold and other currencies to the dollar.
Nixon presented it as a temporary measure, a necessary step to combat inflation and foreign speculation. However, as Lanci meticulously details, what began as a short-term fix unleashed a cascade of long-term, irreversible consequences that continue to reverberate through our global economy.
Fast forward to today, and the chickens are coming home to roost. The video highlights how the long-term repercussions of Nixon’s 1971 decision are now manifesting in the erosion of U.S. hegemony and the rise of alternative monetary strategies worldwide.
Central banks globally are sending clear signals: they’re increasingly dumping U.S. Treasuries and, significantly, accumulating gold once again as a core reserve asset.
This isn’t just a cyclical shift; it’s a strategic repositioning away from a system that no longer offers the same perceived stability.
Vince Lanci previews an upcoming, thought-provoking article titled “The End of Free Market Capitalism and the US Debt for Equity Swap.” This analysis suggests that with foreign buyers of U.S. Treasuries retreating, America may be facing a critical juncture.
The U.S. might soon need to explore exchanging equity stakes in its future — meaning, pieces of its economic engine and assets — for the capital inflows it desperately needs. This potential scenario marks a significant deviation from a purely free-market capitalist system, signaling a monumental shift in how the nation might finance its future.
Amidst these macroeconomic tidal shifts, specific market signals offer glimpses of opportunity and change. The discussion also touches upon recent precious metals updates, including exciting news from Argenta Silver about exceptional drill results indicating very high silver concentrations.
Such developments underscore the importance of monitoring market signals, policy shifts, and resource potential in navigating these uncertain economic times.
The Arcadia Economics video with Vince Lanci serves as a crucial reminder that historical decisions have tangible, long-lasting consequences.
These aren’t just abstract economic concepts; they are live, evolving challenges that impact every facet of our financial lives and the global economic order.

Jeff Across this weekend the central bank has been putting a huge emphasis on banking reforms. Why is that? Because Iraq's about to revalue the currency and get back on the world stage...The banking reforms are coming forward because they're ready and timed with the rate changing...
Frank26 The monetary reform education process is being introduced by something they're calling a 'mechanism'. It's my strong opinion that the 'mechanism' is what we call Article 12-2c [of the budget] because 12-2c contains IMO the new exchange rate that they've been using/going to use for the future...
Militia Man Article: "Rafidain Bank confirms: Our agreement with K2 Integrity puts Iraq on the map of the global financial system." The focus on a qualitative leap is likely due to the efforts taken by Iraq regarding compliance, anti-money laundering (AML), counter-terrorism financing (CML), etc...Iraq will not be isolated banking wise from the international system any longer...K2s partnership supports that Iraq is going to make a change to its currency...Completion looks to be set for show time.
Who's The Big Gold Buyer In The US | Andy Schectman
Liberty and Finance: 8-18-2025
Andy Schechtman of Miles Franklin Precious Metals reveals who is truly behind the massive gold buying in the US.
He argues that the buyers aren't everyday investors, but rather powerful institutions and possibly even the U.S. government itself.
Schechtman analyzes the unprecedented flow of physical gold out of exchanges, contrasting this with a public that is at record-high speculation in the stock market.
This crucial divergence, he explains, signals that those with inside knowledge are preparing for an economic reckoning and a continued de-dollarization trend.
Tune in to understand why gold is the asset of choice for the world's most informed players and what that means for your financial future.

The possibility of a gold revaluation in the United States is no longer a fringe discussion. With Scott Bessent now serving as Treasury Secretary, the signals coming out of Washington suggest that gold is once again being considered as a pillar of fiscal and monetary strategy.
Judy Shelton, long associated with calls for a return to sound money, has openly floated the idea of issuing Treasury Trust Bonds tied to gold—potentially as early as July 4th, 2026, the 250th anniversary of American independence.

Judy Shelton, long associated with calls for a return to sound money, has openly floated the idea of issuing Treasury Trust Bonds tied to gold—potentially as early as July 4th, 2026, the 250th anniversary of American independence.
The symbolism is deliberate: a declaration of economic renewal backed by the one asset that has anchored monetary systems for millennia.
But it may not just be about the future—it could already be underway.
Andy Schectman points to staggering amounts of physical gold quietly being drawn out of COMEX since last November. Over $100 billion worth of gold has moved, with delivery percentages far exceeding historic norms.
For decades, less than one percent of contracts stood for delivery. Now, we’re seeing 100 percent fulfillment in certain contract months, with billions leaving the ecosystem.
The obvious question is: who is buying all this gold? The secrecy and scale strongly suggest that it is not hedge funds or private investors.
The possibility that the U.S. government itself is behind this accumulation cannot be ignored.
Gold Revaluation to $15,000, Here's The Secret Plan For a U.S. Reset
Gold Revaluation to $15,000, Here's The Secret Plan For a U.S. Reset
Daniela Cambone: 8-18-2025
“Gold is heading to $15,000 an ounce,” says former Swiss banker Clive Thompson in this exclusive conversation with Daniela Cambone.
With U.S. debt exploding and interest costs devouring nearly 20% of tax revenues, Thompson argues Washington’s only lifeline is to revalue its gold reserves, unlocking trillions without adding to the national debt.
“It’s the same playbook from 1934,” he warns, pointing to a quiet plan already in motion that could hand the Treasury $3.9 trillion overnight.

Thompson calls $15,000 the “sweet spot” — high enough to ease the debt spiral but not so high as to trigger a dollar collapse. Such a move, he explains, would ignite silver past $100, squeeze America’s creditors, and accelerate a global rush into hard assets.
With Fed rate cuts now certain, COMEX inventories draining, and hedge funds taking physical delivery, Thompson says the world is “waking up to gold’s return as money.”

Now the Fed is Talking about Gold Revaluation
Now the Fed is Talking about Gold Revaluation
Heresy Financial: 8-17-2025
The Federal Reserve has recently published a paper discussing the potential revaluation of the United States’ gold reserves as a means to address the country’s escalating fiscal crisis.
With the US debt-to-GDP ratio exceeding 120%, growing national debt, and a worsening budget deficit, policymakers are exploring unconventional ways to finance government spending without increasing taxes or borrowing more.
One such method is increasing the official value of gold reserves, which are currently recorded at $42 per ounce, despite the market price being over $3,300 per ounce.
Now the Fed is Talking about Gold Revaluation
Heresy Financial: 8-17-2025
The Federal Reserve has recently published a paper discussing the potential revaluation of the United States’ gold reserves as a means to address the country’s escalating fiscal crisis.
With the US debt-to-GDP ratio exceeding 120%, growing national debt, and a worsening budget deficit, policymakers are exploring unconventional ways to finance government spending without increasing taxes or borrowing more.
One such method is increasing the official value of gold reserves, which are currently recorded at $42 per ounce, despite the market price being over $3,300 per ounce.
This revaluation could inject significant new money into the Treasury in a budget-neutral way, meaning it wouldn’t require new taxes or borrowing, but it would essentially be money printing, potentially leading to inflation.
The Federal Reserve’s paper outlines three methods of gold revaluation, each involving adjusting the value of gold on the central bank’s balance sheet and transferring the gains to the government or offsetting central bank losses.
This is not a novel idea; the US has done this before during the Gold Reserve Act of 1934, when the government confiscated gold from citizens and then raised its official price from $20.67 to $35 per ounce to increase spending power.
Currently, a bill known as the Bitcoin Act (S.954) in Congress proposes revaluing gold certificates held by the Federal Reserve to their fair market value.
The act mandates that the difference in value be paid to the Treasury in cash and suggests using this money to purchase Bitcoin within five years.
However, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has publicly stated that the Treasury will not buy Bitcoin, though his statements seem contradicted by the bill’s directives and subsequent clarifications on Twitter, which mention exploring “budget-neutral” ways to acquire more Bitcoin.
The revaluation process is essentially an accounting maneuver that allows the government to print money under the guise of recognizing the true value of its gold. Though this could provide a significant cash infusion, it will not solve the underlying debt problem and is likely to increase inflationary pressures. The video also promotes a live masterclass on trading strategies related to these market uncertainties.
While the idea of revaluing gold reserves to address the fiscal crisis may seem appealing, it is crucial to consider the potential risks and consequences, such as inflation.
Policymakers should carefully weigh the benefits and drawbacks of this approach and explore alternative solutions to address the nation’s financial challenges. Watch the full video from Heresy Financial for further insights and information.
