Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

Executive Order 13303 Protecting the Development Fund for Iraq and Certain Other Property in Which Iraq Has An Interest.

Signed by GEORGE W. BUSH THE WHITE HOUSE, May 22, 2003. Executive Order 13303

~~~~~~~~~

EXECUTIVE ORDER 13303 HAS BEEN LIFTED:

"Protecting the Development Fund for Iraq and Certain Other Property in Which Iraq Has an Interest"

The lifting of this executive order 13303 and the movement from that account to an Iraqi2 account allows Iraq to trade their oil revenue payments in the Iraqi dinar, instead of, the dollar.

The protections of the United States Dollar mechanisms is no longer needed for Iraq since they are integrated into the Digital Asset Based Trading System at this point.

We just recently witnessed their auctions being done successfully on these new digital mechanisms, and it secured their money in the transfers very well.

The oil production of Iraq will now be traded in the Iraqi Dinar. It will begin to place price pressures and demand for the Iraqi Dinar going forward. Let's take a look at the areas of disbursements this will affect for Iraq. See below paragraph.

"Disbursements: To date, disbursements from the DFI have been in support of the wheat purchase program, the currency exchange program, the electricity and oil infrastructure programs, equipment for Iraqis security forces, and for Iraqi civil service salaries and ministry budget operations."

These new demands now being traded in the Iraqi dinar will create price pressures that form new price actions on the market. Appreciations on a country's currency making these moves are expected.

WORLD SILVER SURVEY 2024
Posted on 11 08, 2023
"World Silver Survey, the Silver Institute’s most influential publication will be released on April 17 in New York City and April 19, 2024 in Mexico City. The Institute will issue a press release with the report’s findings on the 17th and post the 2024 edition to our website. A library of past Survey’s can be found here: World Silver Survey Library (https://www.silverinstitute.org/all-world-silver-surveys/)."

Here is what you can expect. There is a strong expectation that we currently have a short squeeze taking place in the silver market.

This will affect the Banking System as so many trades back and forth daily on the COMEX paper trades have propped the system up. Silver Institute

THE SILVER BREAKOUT: Off To $48? | Mike Maloney & Tavi Costa | Youtube

~~~~~~~~~

Take a close look at silver's cup and handle formation. Right behind it is a coil.

Silver is on the cusp of a breakout. This cup and handle has been forming on Silver for over 47 years.

This shift is very close to the time when we moved from a gold standard to a fiat system.

It has been one of the indicators to watch for traders that will allow us to know when the next system is close in hand.

As we continue to transition into a new digital economy, it will be the commodity bull market that will lead the way.

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

FEDNOW Announcement:

“The Fed has definitely piqued the interest of the banks and the credit unions,” Brown said.

FEDNOW has two banking rails up and running in the United States that are capable of doing instant payments, and they expect more to follow in the coming months.

FEDNOW has some financial institutions that have functional status inside an instant payment mechanism. They're still looking for mass adoption after a period of testing it's capabilities.

Marketing for this functional service is just beginning to happen, and they do expect more companies and banks to adopt this much-needed service.

This service is expected to reach all community Banks in the United States and begin competing with other services that will see its benefits including healthcare.

Healthcare has much to gain by adopting this service due to a patient's need for instant information data sharing that is safe and secure during times of emergency. Pymnts

"Japan’s government will issue 20 trillion yen ($133 billion) in transition bonds over the next decade, throwing the emerging global market wide open. Such exponential growth is huge compared to the $7 billion raised since 2020."

Japan is quickly moving into a transitional strategy through cutting emissions in the air and reducing fossil fuel. This will require investor confidence which is well underway by many whales and institutions surrounding these new ventures.

And, Japan intends to scale energy options research, comparative analysis, and measurements of various forms of energy.

These green initiatives in the form of green bonds and other tokenized assets will provide much needed liquidity to shape our world inside a new clean environment and digital processes that will allow us to walk into a new world.

Here, we are getting a first look at what is taking place to shape our new world.

A MESSAGE FROM SAM OLIVER ON GOLD

Gold is currently consolidating at an all-time high price. And consolidation means that it is solidifying the support and justifying the support of where it is now, recognizing that future trades will come at a much higher demand going forward. These demands will increase the price of gold.

It is also known at this time that it is the transition into the next economy, one of which that will be a transition into a gold standard through a digital asset protocol. These moves in and of themselves justifies the move into the tokenized asset digital economy. And because of these moves, the adoption and the support of gold to make this transition not only will become necessary, but inevitable.

So many of these institutions and companies and governments are continuing to buy gold because they see that as an asset of transitory nature, but they also see it as an asset of power going forward.

So you're going to see some competition between governments moving forward. This will cause the price of gold to continue to climb, and at some point it will carry silver along with it, as we especially move into more solar power for all countries around the world.

In fact, you're seeing less use for fossil fuel, and it seems to be that we are starting to leave behind the necessity of fossil fuel and moving into a transitional phase of more electric power.

So, as we go forward, we're going to continue to watch the price of gold and its demand and its new use case scenarios in this new world. The digital world is bringing forth many clean initiatives around the world that will be placing green bonds and opportunities for countries to grow into new jobs and new opportunities that will surround these new green initiatives. as our society continues to grow into a new dimension of living that we have never seen before in history.

It is a time of which change and openness to change is going to demand what is highest in us, to become creative creators in this new age of creativity. I hope you have a wonderful day. This is my take on it this week in hopes that you will understand why the importance of gold for the new liquidity inside our new economy is the bridge to what we've been looking for, but it is also the bridge into future hopes and dreams of all of us. https://t.me/c/1545617426/75947

Additionally, the bank seeks to persuade companies issuing paper gift certificates to transition to the digital realm by embracing point-based transactions facilitated by the app. CoinGape

Singapore, 2 April 2024… The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) today introduced amendments to the Payment Services Act (PS Act) and its subsidiary legislation to expand the scope of payment services regulated by MAS, and to impose user protection and financial stability-related requirements on digital payment token (DPT) service providers. These amendments will take effect in stages from 4 April 2024. [1]

2 The amendments will bring the following activities within the scope of regulation under the PS Act:
(i) Provision of custodial services for DPTs;
(ii) Facilitation of the transmission of DPTs between accounts and facilitation of the exchange of DPTs, even where the service provider does not come into possession of the moneys or DPTs; and
(iii) Facilitation of cross-border money transfer between different countries, even where moneys are not accepted or received in Singapore.

3 The amendments will empower MAS to impose requirements relating to anti-money laundering and countering the financing of terrorism, user protection and financial stability on DPT service providers.

4 Transitional arrangements will be provided for entities currently conducting activities under the PS Act’s expanded scope. Such entities must notify MAS within 30 days, and submit a licence application within six months from 4 April 2024, if they wish to continue the activities on a temporary basis while MAS reviews their licence applications.

The licence application must be accompanied by an attestation report of the entity’s business activities and compliance with anti-money laundering and countering the financing of terrorism requirements, duly completed by a qualified external auditor, within nine months from 4 April 2024.

5 Entities that do not fulfil the requirements above are required to cease the activities when the amendments come into effect.

6 The amended Payment Services Regulations on safeguarding of assets belonging to customers of DPT service providers [2] (https://www.mas.gov.sg/news/media-releases/2024/mas-expands-scope-of-regulated-payment-services#2) will take effect six months from 4 April 2024. These include segregating customers’ assets and placing them in a trust account for the benefit of customers, maintaining proper books and records, and ensuring that effective systems and controls are in place to protect the integrity and security of customers’ assets.

The CBI of Iraq showed us two articles from the CBI that they are not exceeding their cash credit amounts in loans given out to people and companies. These loans provide liquidity for extra capital to help their banking system run more smoothly and profitably going forward.

In talking with our CBI banking contact, their inflation has come down and the country is working within normal ranges of a growing economy. All of this is being done without a change in their exchange rate so far.

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

When our cryptocurrency is regulated on a Global scale at the end of May, look for all of our new Tokenized Assets go to a real value.

© Goldilocks

Posted after hours on Easter Sunday in reference to this article LINK

~~~~~~~~~

If you look on the cbi.iq, you will notice that they still have no changes to their currency rates. One of the things that our CBI contact does discuss often is the price of gold. This is very important to all countries because the second half of the year is when interest rates are expected to be lowered by the US.

This is already taking place among other countries, but the US is still waiting to see if our inflation numbers will level off some. This does not look to be the case, and this is why a new decentralized system utilizing tokenized assets is becoming necessary.

As the United States lags behind in lowering interest rates while other countries have moved ahead, this will give some of the new local currencies being traded around the world time to gain some momentum in trade and strength.

By tokenizing all of our assets on the market, the part of that asset tokenized by gold will deflate the current inflated values we are presently experiencing on the market.

Once our tokenized assets are regulated at the end of May, we will be able to shift our attention towards a new digital payment system and a new digital asset-based economy.

At that time, you can look for our Global Markets to move into real values. What will appear to be a crash is going to be a movement into real values going forward.

From that moment forward, the new cash credit for our banking system which includes Iraqi Dinar will be based on the authentic movement of gold no longer held down by a World Reserve Asset.

Everything!

We are on the brink of a dramatic change where we are about to, and I'll say this boldly, abandon the traditional system of money and accounting and introduce a new one. And the new one is what we call blockchain.

It means digital. It means having an almost perfect record of every single transaction that happens in the economy, which will give us far greater clarity over what's going on. It also raises huge dangers in terms of the balance of power between states and citizens. In my opinion, we're going to need a digital constitution of human rights if we're going to have digital money. Bitcoin Magazine

A MESSAGE FROM SAM OLIVER

As a counselor for 32 years in Hospice Care, I worked with many people recovering from their loss of a loved one.

Grief creates what is called a "cognitive dissonance" inside of people. When a disconnect from reality is experienced through the loss of experiences no longer available to them is met with I continuation of living in the midst of one's despair, it can be devastating to the human psyche.

The feeling of emptiness rolls over people's hearts and minds when future expectations are met with past disappointments that did not come into fruition.

Each week, many people get their hopes up over Intel that has no basis in true economic principles in the least bit.

These subtle formations within a person's psyche erode their ability to discern right from wrong and dissipate a person's clarity in the world around them over time.

Once the power of a fantasy does not come true, a person is left with the choice to build a Foundation of Truth inside themselves. And, a sense of powerlessness washes over them until he or she rebuilds foundational truths to sustain them for the next wave of disillusionment surfaces.

Last weekend was one of those events, and many people are trying to recover until they hear that one more piece of Hope awakens something inside of themselves again giving them a reason to live.

Over time, a person can lose all sense of reality doing this over and over and over. Just know, the Seeds of Wisdom Team is here to support you the best way that we can, but you have to do your part in opening your hearts and minds into concepts of a reality forming right in front of you inside a digital asset-based trading system.

Japan has now signaled that officials are on standby to intervene in the market to address the yen.

Gold is at record highs in Japan.

The Bank of Japan has distorted its capital markets, and the world will feel the effects.

~~~~~~~~~

The Bank of Japan is in a very difficult position. They hold a lot of US dollars in reserve that could be utilized to prop up their own currency if they were to sell it off. The problem is that a move like this would disturb the balance of trade on a worldwide level. Shifts in the prices of other countries' currency values may start a domino effect.

Goldilocks' Comments and Global Economic News Saturday Afternoon 3-30-24

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

A stronger Yen would create a lower US Dollar if too many sales of the US dollar were to be put into the market so quickly. Normally, lowering interest rates creates more purchasing power for a country, this is currently not working for their economy. Because of this reason, a currency intervention is being contemplated.

Normal banking protocols are currently not able to pull them out of their situation at this time. They are Basel 3 compliant, and a move towards more reliance on gold as a Currency Reserve may be an option they cannot rule out at this point.

A clear backing and more gold support while selling off the dollar in small increments may be a choice that has validity at this time. Either way, the country needs to increase the value of their currency soon, and choices are becoming very limited quickly. CNBC Japan Times Financial Services Agency

"The State Bank of Vietnam (SBV) has withdrawn nearly VND75 trillion from the banking system over the course of the last five trading sessions."

Moves like this one create a shift in trading imbalances and currency rate exchanges. And, a VND drain makes it difficult for policymakers at the Central Bank of a country be able to control the supply of money.

This will also reduce the ability of their Central Bank to intervene upon their currency. Ten of Vietnam's Commercial Banks are Basel 3 compliant, and gold will become the backing and standard for future interventions creating a more sovereign country. Vietnam Net EY

A group of professional people posed this question to a group of 4 to 8-year-olds, 'What does love mean?' The answers they got were broader, deeper, and more profound than anyone could have ever imagined!

'When my grandmother got arthritis, she couldn't bend over and paint her toenails anymore... So my grandfather does it for her all the time, even when his hands got arthritis too. That's love.' Rebecca - age 8

'When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You just know that your name is safe in their mouth.' Billy - age 4

'Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving cologne and they go out and smell each other.' Karl - age 5

'Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your French fries without making them give you any of theirs.' Chrissy - age 6

'Love is what makes you smile when you're tired.' Terri - age 4

'Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK.' Danny - age 8

'Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and just listen.' Bobby - age 7 (Wow!)

'If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend who you hate.' Nikka - age 6

(we need a few million more Nikka's on this planet)

'Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it every day.' Noelle - age 7

'Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are still friends even after they know each other so well.' Tommy - age 6

'During my piano recital, I was on a stage and I was scared. I looked at all the people watching me and saw my daddy waving and smiling.

He was the only one doing that. I wasn't scared anymore.' Cindy - age 8

'My mommy loves me more than anybody. You don't see anyone else kissing me to sleep at night.' Clare - age 6

'Love is when Mommy gives Daddy the best piece of chicken.' Elaine - age 5

'Love is when Mommy sees Daddy smelly and sweaty and still says he is handsomer than Robert Redford.' Chris - age 7

'Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone all day.' Mary Ann - age 4

'I know my older sister loves me because she gives me all her old clothes and has to go out and buy new ones.' Lauren - age 4

'When you love somebody, your eyelashes go up and down and little stars come out of you.' (what an image!) Karen - age 7

'Love is when Mommy sees Daddy on the toilet and she doesn't think it's gross...' Mark - age 6

'You really shouldn't say 'I love you' unless you mean it. But if you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget.' Jessica - age 8

And the final one: The winner was a four-year-old child whose next-door neighbor was an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife. Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman's yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there. When his mother asked what he had said to the neighbor, the little boy said, 'Nothing, I just helped him cry.'

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

As we approach the MICA testing and implementation of regulating Global cryptocurrencies, Exchange Traded Notes or ETNs THAT TRACK INDEXES, BONDS AND OTHER ASSETS will soon become available on May 28th, 2024.

MICA's pilot program is expected to be done near the above date as well. This will enable us to move forward with Global Cryptocurrency Regulations.

While all of this is going on, Phase 2 of Project Aurora progresses forward along with MICA. This includes anti-money laundering (AML) mechanisms to support the new digital economy. It ensures a proof of concept application able to scale this and other pilot programs.

Project Aurora allows banks to validate investments in digital transformation, and it minimizes the risk of a costly mistake in a full-scale implementation of a project such as MICA. BIS Asana RegulationAsia Lucinity

Look for a Ripple to begin making its move when Global Regulations are put into place along with other Tokenized Assets.

Why?

At that time, the utility will become the driving force for all our cryptocurrencies inside the new digital asset-based trading system.

Demand always creates opportunity for supply. Don't get me wrong. You have to have both supply and demand, but demand creates the need for supply and use case scenarios.

These are the things that create values for living and prices to go along with it.

"Citigroup strategists expect the Federal Reserve to start cutting interest rates in June, the bank said after the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) for February was released today.

Citi's projections are now more in line with the Federal Reserve's expectations for the upcoming easing cycle. In a research note, the strategists said they expect Chair Jerome Powell to maintain a dovish stance despite recent hawkish signals from other Fed officials."

This would not be a surprise to me due to the fact that the lowering of rates would help kick-start the new digital economy.

MICA is expected to be completed by May 28th, 2024. It will give regulations and demands for new digital assets to commence.

A lowering of interest rates after holding back Commodity prices for years would send these new Tokenized Assets backed by gold and other Commodities through the roof.

Timing is everything my friends, and these new price pressures on Stablecoins that represent various countries' currencies would begin to put price pressures on the paper money you and I hold.

Watch for laws to govern these new Tokenized Assets to begin coming into play these next two months.

In their working paper, published in February, Jesu‌s Ferna‌ndez Villaverde and Daniel Sanches explore how the gold standard would operate as a monetary framework in a hypothetical small open economy.

They argue that the price level would consistently converge to its long-run equilibrium value. Inflation and deflation would be “merely temporary phenomena” Central Banking

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

"The collapse of a major bridge along a crucial trade corridor outside Baltimore idled shipping at one of the East Coast’s busiest ports, tied up coal shipments, and pushed retailers, truckers, and industrial firms to reroute shipping volumes to contain the economic fallout of the catastrophic event."

An event of this magnitude does take a toll on an already fragile Market. We have to remember Market shifts such as these do not happen right away.

The market lags behind a good 4 to 5 days before events like this begin to show up. We will have a choice to add liquidity to the market inflating it more, or we will witness it go to a real value.

The Dow is at its maximum price ever, and there is not another referencing price to match it.

This has the potential to cause an aggressive movement downward to its 200-day moving average. And, an event like this in the shipping industry could take months to years to recover.

Goldilocks' Comments and Global Economic News Thursday Afternoon 3-28-24

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

Is history repeating itself? Although the circumstances are different, we have the same scenario at play whereby the shipping industry is disrupted. This happened on a much grander scheme when Donald Trump was our president. His administrative team brought us back by the end of the year. Ironically, it was about the same time of the year. It was just before an election too.

This gives everyone an idea just how events such as these can create havoc among the markets. At that time, we considered a currency intervention as we neared the end of the chaos. WSJ

"In Baltimore warehouses registered with the London Metal Exchange, there are 756 metric tons of nickel, 150 tons of tin and 50 tons of copper, LME data shows."

The measurements above were reported about 2 days ago. The movement of metals supports the banking system. It also supports the dollar.

This gives us an idea of what we may be facing in the banking system as well. When the movement of metals is slowed down, it will have a corresponding effect on the banking system that supplies it's liquidity. Reuters

"Post-Covid correlation patterns between commodity prices and the US dollar will become more common in the future. There is a robust and significant long-run relationship between the US dollar and the US terms of trade. In the past, when the United States was a net commodity importer, higher commodity prices corresponded to a lower US terms of trade and a weaker US dollar. Now that the United States is a commodity exporter, higher commodity prices raise the US terms of trade and strengthen the US dollar."

It may not take long for other Commodities to start decoupling from the market fundamentals as copper is doing now.

Then, we will have the freedom of our gold and silver markets to go to their real values.

As our commodity markets are released to real values and real fundamentals, our ability to formulate prices on global currencies based on these new values will become possible. BIS

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

"Since trade values mostly increase when switching from MFN schemes to FTA schemes due to the latter’s lower tariff rates, a depreciation of the domestic currency may increase more than when only considering the above typical effect through relative price changes."

Vietnam is currently working on a couple of finishing touches to the payment side of their new stock market upgrade. They are currently working on trading ratios that allows a Free Trade Agreement based on supply and demand moving forward.

Vietnam does have some banks that are Basel 3 compliant, and more integration inside this upgrade is still taking place. For them to trade on a supply and demand platform, they need to prove that they have enough commodities and services to support this change into a Free Trade Agreement with other countries.

Most countries around the world are bankrupt or on the verge of being so with no ability to repay their debts. War, inflation, geopolitical issues, debt and more have created price distortions inside our International Financial System.

Part of the process of restoring credit to an individual or countries is to go through a Credit Valuation Adjustment. You are going to hear the term Credit Valuation Adjustment as we get closer to the moment when Nations around the world sign an International Treaty Agreement to make these changes.

This is part of the reason why we have Basel 3 compliance coming into play this year. These new requirements will reveal Financial flaws needing to be adjusted inside the banking system and force mergers needed to successfully put us on a path that is sustainable going forward. Bank of England

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

We are rapidly approaching the April into May deadline for the MICA, EU’s Comprehensive New Crypto Regulation Standards. MICA stands for Markets in Crypto-Assets. MICA is being integrated with the DTCC. The Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation will process our new Global Digital transactions.

Essentially, Europe will be moving our new digital money through this new integration testing the speed, flow, and security of its movement. This is being done to make sure we have a smooth transition and implementation by May 28th, 2024.

This comprehensive industry testing is necessary to measure end-to-end processes such as trade executions to trade settlements along with non-standard settlement scenarios utilizing tokenized assets.

There are several ISO 20022 Tokens. Each represents a set of assets that will flow through their Network.

The trick is to obtain them before the switch is turned on for them to move freely. At that time, we may see assets move into real values of significance overnight.

The US has currently decided to hold their rates until the next FOMC meeting. This holds price pressures on the dollar to remain strong. It is, also, why we talked about Gold and the US Dollar rising together in the end game.

And now, we have China taking the lead on putting even more price pressures on Gold to rise even further. It is believed that China "now" controls the price of gold at this time. Inadvertently, the challenge to the US Dollar World Reserve Asset is beginning to come into play.

HANOI (Bernama-Xinhua): The sustainable bond market in East Asian countries expanded 29.3 percent in 2023, outpacing the 21 percent growth of the global and euro-area sustainable bond markets, according to an Asian Development Bank (ADB) report released to the media.

The latest edition of the Asia Bond Monitor said that sustainable bonds in the Association of South-East Asian Nations (ASEAN) members, China, Japan, and South Korea, collectively as ASEAN+3, reached US$798.7 billion by the end of 2023, accounting for around 20 percent of global sustainable bonds.

By the end of 2023, the global sustainable bond markets had reached US$4 trillion, bringing environmental and social benefits to the countries through sustainable bonds financed projects and programs.

ASEAN sustainable bond issuance made up a higher share of local currency financing and long-term financing in 2023, driven by public sector participation, ADB Chief Economist Albert Park said.

The report also said financial conditions in emerging East Asia improved marginally between Dec. 1 and Feb. 29, as the US Federal Reserve was expected to ease its monetary stance. Inflation continued to moderate, and most economies posted sound economic growth in the region. - Bernama-Xinhua The Star

This move constitutes the first multi-currency digital bond offering in the world.

A green bond is a fixed-income instrument used to raise money for climate and environmental projects.

These bonds are asset-linked and backed by the issuing entity’s balance sheet. They have the same credit rating as their issuers’ other debt obligations.

"On 26 February 2024, the European Council adopted a new regulation, the Instant Payments Regulation. This will make instant payments in euro fully available to consumers and businesses in the EU and in EEA countries."

While Global Digital Payment Systems are moving to T+1 settlements, Europe is pressing their banking system to move to instant settlements.

What Europe learns from being a first mover on the markets in instance settlements will help them formulate their Global CRYPTO Regulations (MICA).

Our Tokenized Assets are continuing to interface with other Digital Global Assets around the world through Protocol 20. At the same time, we are witnessing the birth of a new regulated payment system moving towards instant payments.

Europe has already confirmed that their new instant payments regulation will go into effect on April 8th, 2024, and Ripple is a part of it.

"In the latest draft, the regulatory sandbox will be developed for three fintech solutions, including credit scoring, open application programming interface (API), and P2P lending."

We are witnessing Sandboxes popping up everywhere in several countries. The Sandboxes test cryptocurrencies and Stablecoins from around the world.

It is a way for countries to test new Digital Currencies being processed within their new Digital Financial System. Many countries are beginning to test and form regulations for cross-border International trading among countries this year. As these new Digital Payment Systems are tested and approved, the ability to move these particular assets across borders will help in foreign trade and foreign currency exchanges. Vietnam News

~~~~~~~~~

Many countries around the world are currently testing new payment systems with their own Stablecoins. Throughout the year several countries will be exchanging their Stablecoins with one another.

Remember, Stablecoins represent a country's currencies. These cryptocurrencies will be utilized in trade and cross-border payments.

Once these Stablecoins are fully regulated and given the green light to move forward. The next step will be for them to have a Credit Valuation Adjustment. Dinarland references this as a revaluation.

The Credit Valuation Adjustment is inside the derivative market, and this includes foreign currency.

Hong Kong is pointing to a January the 1st, 2025 date to begin this process of credit valuation adjustment for themselves. This does not mean that other currencies cannot go before this one or have a float leading up to this date ie Nigeria's currency. It just simply means HK has a tentative date.
