Tishwash:  Rafidain: A plan to include other branches in the implementation of the comprehensive banking system

Rafidain Bank announced, today, Friday, a plan to include other branches in the implementation of the comprehensive banking system.

The bank stated in a statement received by the Iraqi News Agency (INA) that "the continuous expansion in implementing the comprehensive banking system will include more branches in the future within a well-thought-out plan aimed at providing a modern banking experience that contributes to supporting the national economy and meeting the needs of society with distinguished and comprehensive banking services." link

Tishwash:  The Oil and Gas Law Returns to the Forefront... Will Al-Sudani Be Able to Resolve the Disputes Over It?

Talk returns about the oil and gas bill that has been absent for two decades due to political differences, despite the fact that it represents the only solution to all the problems of the center and the region.

MP Ali Al-Mashkoor, a member of the Parliamentary Oil and Gas Committee, attributed the delay in approving the Oil and Gas Law to points of contention behind which the Kurdistan Region of Iraq stands.

It is noteworthy that the Oil and Gas Law has undergone 11 amendments and has never reached Parliament.

Al-Mashkoor said in a press statement, "The law has been in place since 2008 and was sent to the House of Representatives to regulate the financial and oil matters of the producing provinces," explaining that "this law cannot be passed except with political approvals from the blocs within Parliament."

He added, "The reason for the suspension of this law in the corridors of the House of Representatives is the failure to send its latest updates, as there are clear points of disagreement with the region," indicating that "the dialogues with the region resulted in reducing these articles from 9 to 7 points."

He explained that "dialogues are still ongoing between the federal government and the region in order to resolve these points," noting that "until now we have not reached solutions that can be accepted by both parties."

Yesterday, Wednesday, Prime Minister Mohammed Al-Sudani visited the Kurdistan Region of Iraq to discuss a number of important files, including the oil and gas law.

Iraq's oil and gas law, which has been awaiting legislation since 2005, stipulates that responsibility for managing the country's oil fields should be vested in a national oil company, overseen by a federal council specializing in this matter.

The Kurdistan Oil Law stipulates that the Ministry of Oil in the region or whoever it authorizes shall assume responsibility for organizing and supervising oil operations as well as all activities related to them, including marketing oil, as well as negotiating and concluding agreements and implementing all licenses, including oil contracts concluded by the regional government. The Iraqi government also has the right to participate in the management of fields discovered before 2005, but fields discovered after that are subject to the regional government.

On February 21, the Federal Supreme Court ruled that the federal government would be responsible for paying the salaries of Erbil government civil servants, with the amount paid at source in Baghdad deducted from the regional government’s share, and the KRG must submit monthly accounts detailing each salary paid. This is effectively a stricter reset of the original “budget payments for oil revenues” deal agreed between the KRG and the federal government in November 2014.

There are no government statistics on oil exported from the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, but the Iraqi Ministry of Oil published an analysis in May 2023, saying the regional government had committed “legal and procedural violations” in selling oil that caused significant losses.

The financial returns of the regional government constitute no more than 80 percent on average after deducting the production costs (the cost of producing a barrel of oil), while the financial returns of the first and second licensing rounds (held by Baghdad) constitute from 94.5 percent to 96.5 percent, and the cost of production is equivalent to (4) times the production costs in the licensing rounds of the federal Ministry of Oil, according to the Ministry of Oil.

Iraq exports an average of 3.3 million barrels of crude oil per day, and black gold constitutes more than 90 percent of the Iraqi treasury's resources.

In August 2023, the government formed a committee to draft the oil and gas law and present it to the government for voting and then passing it to the House of Representatives. The committee included the Minister of Oil, the Minister of Natural Resources in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, the Director General of SOMO, and senior staff in the Federal Ministry of Oil, in addition to the producing governorates such as Basra, Dhi Qar, Maysan, and Kirkuk.

For years, the points of contention between Baghdad and Erbil have not been resolved, but Al-Sudani recently revealed that an agreement had been reached with Erbil on these points, in addition to including in his ministerial program the resolution of these items, most notably the enactment of the Oil and Gas Law and the implementation of Article 140 regarding the disputed areas.

In mid-February 2022, the Federal Court issued a decision declaring the oil and gas law in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq unconstitutional, and prevented it from exporting oil for its own benefit, with the export to be through Baghdad exclusively, based on a lawsuit filed by the Federal Ministry of Oil. link

Tishwash:  Swiss Ambassador Expresses His Country's Desire to Invest in Iraq

Al-Alawi touched on the priorities of the government program of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the achievements it has made to strengthen Iraq's relations with the international and regional community, and to activate Iraq's role in international organizations such as the United Nations, and regional organizations such as the League of Arab States and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, according to the statement.

He pointed to "the economic cooperation between Iraq and some important European countries such as Germany, France, the Netherlands, and Italy, and the entry of major companies to invest in Iraq in various vital fields," stressing "the government's desire to revive the tourism sector and facilitate all necessary procedures for that."

According to the statement, the two sides discussed ways of joint cooperation in the field of water diplomacy, and Iraq's benefit from Swiss expertise in this field through the relevant institutions in Geneva, and developing joint work to activate the "Water for Peace and Development" initiative, which contributes to addressing pending water issues between Iraq and neighboring countries and mitigating the effects of global climate change.

The two sides also discussed encouraging major Swiss companies to invest in Iraq, as Hahn expressed his country's desire to invest, especially in the construction, health, and agriculture sectors, noting the presence of major Swiss companies specializing in these fields, according to the statement.

According to the statement, the two sides agreed to work together to organize visits by senior officials from the two countries during the coming year.

The statement quoted the Swiss ambassador as expressing his desire to "arrange meetings with a number of Iraqi officials in the ministries of water resources, electricity, and migration and displacement," while "the undersecretary expressed his readiness to cooperate in achieving these meetings," according to the statement.  link

Member: (From Dinar Guru) Mnt Goat  ...my CBI contact told me they almost must reinstate the dinar at about the same time or very shortly after...they end the currency auctions in Iraq...at the end of this year. This is why this move to end the currency auctions is so important to us investors. Remember also that the CBI will be no longer taking dollars from the oil revenues to pay for imports.

This is an important piece. When they change their value the world knows they are sovereign and stable.

Member: Does anyone have any markers that have to happen b/f the RV?

Member: I believe we need the QFS and the new USN gold backed currency and a market crash before RV.

Member: I believe the currency administration held it up.

Member: Maybe other countries were not ready yet?  Or waiting for nesara/Gessara to be released?

​​Mark, word around social media is that Chase won’t accept more the 50k foreign currency exchange per day….wonder if they will change it when it comes time…

Iraq Economic News and Points to Ponder Late Thursday Evening 11-13-24

The Iraqi Government Reveals The Reasons For The Lack Of Gold In Its Reserves Compared To Other  Currencies
 
Economy     Iraq     breaking     gold    2024-11-13 03:23   Shafaq News/ Mazhar Muhammad Saleh, the financial advisor to the Prime Minister, revealed on Wednesday the reasons for the lack of gold in the state’s reserves compared to other hard currencies. Saleh said in an interview with Shafaq News Agency,   “Some countries still only hold quantities of gold as part of their cash reserves, as the greatest  focus today is on other assets that can be quickly and easily converted into productive assets that generate returns in the long term.”

He added,  "Countries are moving away from using gold as the main store of their cash reserves for several reasons related to
 
     international economic developments and
     changes in the nature of modern financial systems, which are restricted by the following main reasons, including
     low returns compared to other assets such as:
     investing in deposits, or
     government bonds with a very high credit rating."
 
“And it is risk-free, so gold does not achieve fixed returns like government bonds.” Saleh continued, Therefore,saying:
 
“the majority of countries prefer to keep assets that generate a fixed and stable income, such as: American or European treasury bonds that can truly generate annual interest, and the difficulty of
 
dealing with gold in times of crises is difficult, as
it is difficult to convert gold into liquidity quickly.” Compared to other financial assets such as foreign currencies and bonds. He explained that
 
"the changes in the global financial system since World War II have imposed conditions in which most countries have come to rely on the US dollar as a major reserve, given that
 
it is the most accepted and used global currency in international transactions, which makes
 
keeping the dollar or assets associated with it a more flexible option."
 
The advisor to the Prime Minister pointed out that
 
“the cost of storing gold requires safe spaces to protect it from theft or damage, which may represent an additional burden compared to digital financial assets or liquidity.” He pointed out that
 
"countries are seeking to diversify their reserves to include different currencies and various financial assets to achieve greater stability, instead of relying solely on gold to avoid the cycle of gold assets and its problems.

Therefore, the standard rule is that gold should not exceed, on average, 10% of the total value of countries' reserves."
 
Iraq has a hard currency reserve of about 100 billion dollars, and 152 tons of gold in its reserves, which is equivalent to about 12 billion dollars.   https://shafaq.com/ar/اقتصـاد/الحكومة-العراقية-تكشف-سباب-قلة-الذهب-في-احتياطياتها-زا-العملات-الاخرى   

Prime Minister's Advisor Rules Out Oil Price Collapse: Trump's Policy Will Not Sacrifice Petrodollar

Time: 2024/11/14 12:16:46 Read: 1,352 times  {Politics: Al Furat News} The economic advisor to the Prime Minister, Mazhar Muhammad Salih, ruled out that the policy of US President-elect Donald Trump would “sacrifice” the petrodollar.

Saleh told Al Furat News Agency: "There are three restrictions that I find that prevent the deterioration of crude oil prices in the global market. The first is that the United States is still the largest oil producer in the world, and major American oil companies have invested in line with an oil price of no less than $70 per barrel, to cover the costs of producing shale oil at the break-even point."

He added, "As for the second restriction, President Trump's policy will not sacrifice the petrodollar to make the oil dollar a dollar supply that exceeds demand for it, at a time when the United States and its new foreign policy find themselves making the dollar the strongest currency in the world, within the framework of its dominance over the global economy.

Therefore, the new American administration is keen for the dollar to present itself again and for demand to exceed supply. Therefore, the weakness or deterioration of petrodollar revenues only means a weakening of the global oil currency and the basis of the dollar's dominance."

Saleh continued, "As for the third restriction, the deterioration of oil prices will allow China, the largest oil importer in the world, to obtain cheap energy resources, which is inconsistent with the economic competition between China and the United States in dominating the sources of growth and economic power in the world."

He pointed out that, "In light of the above, I find that the three above-mentioned restrictions are what will prevent the collapse of the oil asset cycle if it is about to happen, taking into account not being overly optimistic, which requires fiscal and monetary policies within the framework of preventive policies that mitigate the impact of international factors on stability and economic growth in our country."

Economic analysts have warned of a sharp 40% drop in oil prices next year if the OPEC+ group abandons current oil production restrictions.  LINK

Oil Prices Stabilize After Hitting Their Lowest Levels This Month

Thursday 14 November 2024 09:01 | Economic Number of readings: 157  Baghdad / NINA / Oil prices stabilized on Thursday, after hitting their lowest level this month, as the rise in the US dollar put pressure on commodities, while concerns about demand growth raised uncertainty about price expectations.

Brent crude was traded near $72 a barrel, while West Texas Intermediate crude exceeded $68.

China's position in the global oil market declined this week, as the US Energy Information Administration said that India has now become the main source of demand growth in Asia, due to slowing Chinese consumption due to the economic slowdown and the increasing spread of electric cars.

More market analyses are expected to be issued on Thursday from the International Energy Agency. / End3   https://ninanews.com/Website/News/Details?key=1168980

IEA Raises Oil Demand Growth Forecast

Energy    Economy News - Follow-up   The International Energy Agency raised its forecast for global oil demand growth this year to 920,000 barrels per day from a previous forecast of 860,000 barrels per day.

It stated in its monthly report today that China is the main obstacle to the growth of global demand for oil, as Chinese demand shrank for the sixth consecutive month in September.

The agency kept its forecast for global oil demand growth in 2025 largely unchanged at 990,000 barrels per day, down from the previous forecast of one million barrels per day, according to Reuters.

She said that current balances indicate that even if OPEC Plus cuts continue, global supply will exceed demand by more than one million barrels per day in 2025.

The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) has lowered its forecast for global oil demand growth in 2024 by 107,000 barrels per day to 1.8 million barrels per day, according to its monthly report issued two days ago.

The organization also reduced its expectations for growth in demand for OPEC+ oil by about 100,000 barrels to reach 0.5 million barrels per day in the same year.https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=49828

Seeds of Wisdom RV and Economic Updates Friday Morning 11-15-24

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

PRO-BITCOIN MATT GAETZ NOMINATED AS U.S. ATTORNEY GENERAL

Matt Gaetz, a Florida Representatives and American lawyer, has been nominated as Attorney General by President-elect Donald Trump. Gaetz was assigned due to his educational and career experience in law.

President-elect Donald Trump nominated Matt Gaetsz, pro-bitcoin and Florida representative, to be the next U.S. Attorney General. Following this nomination, he resigned from the House of Representative on Nov. 13, 2024.

ccording to the Nov. 13 X post, Trump praised Gaetz as a determined attorney committed to driving much-needed reform at the Department of Justice.

Gaetz expects to prioritize ending weaponized government, strengthening border security, dismantling criminal organizations, and exposing the potential of government corruption and weaponization.

“He is a champion for the constitution and the rule of law. Matt Gaetz will root out the systematic corruption at DOJ, and return the department to its true mission of fighting crime, and upholding our democracy and constitution.”

Elon Musk, recently appointed as head of Department of Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E), replied to his X post, congratulating Gaetz on his new role.

Matt Gaetz stances on crypto
Earlier this year, on June 25 as a member of Congress Gaetz introduced a bill advocating for Bitcoin to be accepted as payment for Americans for federal income tax. The bill was proposed after he visited El Salvador and aimed to modernize the U.S. tax system.

The aggressive move made would “promote innovation, increase efficiency, and offer more flexibility to American citizens.”

The proposal seeks to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to accept Bitcoin for tax payment and expand this payment option to other federal services.

Gaetz has also advocated for various crypto deregulations and pushed back against the federal agency’s oversight. He is arguing that the measure would stifle innovation and growth.

His appointment as an Attorney General highlights potential approaches to law enforcement and more flexible regulations within the crypto industry under the Trump presidency.

CHINA COULD REASSESS CRYPTO BAN DUE TO TRUMP, HASHKEY CEO CLAIMS

HashKey Group Chairman and CEO Xiao Feng has indicated that China’s stringent stance on cryptocurrencies could soften within the next two years, influenced by the pro-crypto policies expected under US President-elect Donald Trump. Xiao believes that clear regulatory support in the United States could serve as a catalyst for China to reconsider its current ban.

Why China Could Reconsider Its Crypto Ban
“If the US Congress and the new president establish clear crypto policies and actively promote the industry, it would certainly be a driving force for China to accept cryptocurrencies,” Xiao stated in an interview with the South China Morning Post.

Xiao also pointed to geopolitical factors that might accelerate China’s acceptance of digital assets. The exclusion of Russia from the SWIFT financial messaging system by the US and its allies in 2022 has underscored the importance of alternative financial infrastructures.

 This move, part of sanctions related to the conflict in Ukraine, may prompt China to explore crypto more earnestly to safeguard its financial autonomy.

“Without these events, China might have needed five or six years to accept cryptocurrency businesses. Now, due to these factors, that timeframe could be shortened to two years,” Xiao explained.

Over the past several years, China has enforced a strict ban on initial coin offerings (ICOs), crypto trading, mining, and other related activities. Authorities have cited concerns over financial stability and the potential for illicit activities as primary reasons for the crackdown.

 Despite this, Hong Kong has been permitted to develop its digital asset industry, positioning itself as a potential bridge should mainland China relax its regulations.

Should China decide to re-engage with the digital asset market, Xiao suggests that regulated stablecoins could be the initial focus. “Stablecoins are currently the best solution for cross-border business-to-consumer trade,” he noted.

Supporting this view, HashKey conducted a survey in Yiwu, a major manufacturing and trade hub in mainland China. The survey revealed that nearly all merchants had received inquiries from international buyers about making payments using popular US dollar-based stablecoins such as USDT and USDC.

HashKey Group operates HashKey Exchange, one of Hong Kong’s three licensed crypto exchanges. The company plans to launch its own blockchain, the HashKey Chain, next month.

With over 300 employees in Hong Kong and additional teams in Singapore, Tokyo, Dubai, Bermuda, and Europe, HashKey is expanding its global footprint.

While the Chinese government has not indicated any immediate plans to relax its crypto ban, Xiao emphasized the importance of maintaining a strong presence in Hong Kong. “Only by staying in Hong Kong can we serve mainland China when that market opens up. We firmly believe that day will come,” he asserted.

Thurs. 14 Nov. 2024 UPDATE: New List of 209 Countries That are (Allegedly) Connected to The QFS System or are Being Connected – QFS + RTGS Trust The Plan! …Mr. Pool Secrets

BOOOM!! Today, we uncover the intricate web of banks that are now aligning with the QFS system. The QFS, or Quantum Financial System, has been the subject of much speculation, whispers in dimly lit rooms, and late-night conspiracy theory forums. Some say it’s the future, while others claim it’s just another fanciful myth. But what if I told you that 97 of the top 100 central banks are being covertly connected to this system?

The world’s central banks have long been seen as the puppeteers of the global economy, shaping the fate of nations with their decisions. Their influence is undeniable. But what happens when these behemoths of finance join forces with an emergent, arguably enigmatic, technological powerhouse like the QFS?

Hold on to your hats folks, because here comes the bombshell!!! Our inside source, a brave individual deep within military intelligence circles (identity classified for obvious reasons), has dropped a piece of information that might just shake the very foundations of the global economy: 97 of the top 100 central banks are currently under transformation to become fully operational under the QFS + RTGS system. That’s not all, the remaining 82 smaller central banks are gearing up for this transition.

But first, let’s roll back a bit. For those of you who’ve been living under a rock, or perhaps wisely distancing yourself from the maddening world of global finance and its shady undertakings, the QFS + RTGS is the new kid on the block. It stands for Quantum Financial System and Real-Time Gross Settlement. In layman terms, it’s a sophisticated financial network ensuring instantaneous money transfers without the usual delays.

Why is this significant, you ask? Well, imagine the world where money flows without barriers, without time-lapses, without the invisible hands manipulating the scene behind thick velvet curtains. A world where every transaction is transparent (well, to those who know where to look). This is the promise of the QFS.

Thurs. 14 Nov. 2024 BOOOM!! There are a total of 179 central banks listed by the BIS with about 80 more when counting regional monetary authorities among the 209 countries—all these are (allegedly) being connected too. QUANTUM FINANCIAL SYSTEM https://t.me/+cNqgYdnw6QViM2Rh

This is why this move to end the currency auctions is so important to us investors. Remember also that the CBI will be no longer taking dollars from the oil revenues to pay for imports. If this is the case don’t you think the dinar must have some substantial value?

Nader From The Mid East  Community comment: "The dinar is not on Forex."  You're wrong.  Every currency of the world is on Forex.  Some of them are frozen.  Some of them are not.  Some of them are moving.  You can exchange it, you can buy it.  Every money you put on you go on Forex.  You could put any money you want...but some of them are frozen.  You cannot buy...sell them...If you tell me, 'oh, some of them are frozen and not moving.'  I agree with you but the Iraqi dinar start moving.  This is what I'm saying, it start moving now.  You cannot buy and sell but once he moves a lot they're going to have to buy it and sell it.

Gold Signals Demand Destroying Event Imminent | Francis Hunt

Liberty and Finance:  11-14-2024

Elijah K. Johnson hosts Francis Hunt, also known as "The Market Sniper," to discuss the recent pullback in precious metals like gold and silver. Francis highlights several key factors contributing to this sell-off, including a rising U.S. dollar and climbing 10-year Treasury yields, both of which are putting pressure on the metals market.

 He explains that while gold has seen significant gains since earlier in the year, the market is experiencing normal fluctuations, with Bitcoin increasingly drawing attention as a digital alternative to gold. Francis also warns of potential macroeconomic risks, such as a "demand-destroying" event, which could trigger a broader financial collapse, impacting gold and silver prices.

However, he suggests that while Bitcoin is gaining momentum, gold remains a safer bet for those looking for stability in a turbulent market.

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

18 GOP AGS SUE SEC AS GENSLER HINTS RESIGNATION

Donald Trump’s promise of a U.S. SEC without Gary Gensler may be realized ahead of schedule amid state lawsuits and resignation chatter.

Wall Street’s top cop-on-the-beat has been accused of “unconstitutional overreach” and “unfair persecution” of the $3 trillion cryptocurrency industry, according to a lawsuit signed by 18 Republican Attorneys Generals.

The lawsuit alleges that the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and its commissioners, led by chair Gary Gensler, overstepped their jurisdiction and disregarded state economic autonomy.

Litigation from GOP AGs and states has added to the existing scrutiny of Gensler’s SEC career. Top lawmakers have opened an investigation into the SEC’s hiring practices amid suspicions of politically biased recruitment, which has spurred the inquiry.

Several members of Congress have called for his resignation, and Donald Trump has promised the digital asset industry that he would dismiss Gensler.

Is Gary Gensler retiring?
Social media is buzzing with speculation that Gensler might be on his way out as SEC Chairman. His comments in a note on Nov. 14, calling his time at the SEC “a great honor” and praising his colleagues for their dedication, have fueled rumors of a possible imminent retirement.

The SEC is a remarkable agency. The staff and Commission are deeply mission-driven, focused on protecting investors, maintaining fair, orderly, and efficient markets, and facilitating capital formation.

Gary Gensler, SEC chair

He added that it’s been a privilege to serve with the SEC “doing the people’s work and ensuring that our capital markets remain the best in the world.”

A firm stance on crypto regulation has marked Gensler’s tenure at the securities regulator. Blockchain industry players increasingly anticipate changes in leadership and policy enforcement from the SEC after years of grappling with Gensler’s regulatory approach.

The SEC has ongoing court cases against firms like Coinbase and Ripple. As such, Gensler’s potential departure has become a focal point for speculation on how regulatory policies might shift under new leadership.

Senator Lummis Proposes Selling Fed’s Gold To Fund Strategic BTC Reserve: Bloomberg

According to a latest Bloomberg report, Republican Senator Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming has proposed to sell a part of the Federal Reserve’s gold holdings to purchase one million Bitcoins for the creation of a strategic bitcoin reserve. 

The Senator, an ally of Donald Trump, has a plan for filling up the president-elect’s proposed strategic Bitcoin stockpile without adding to the government deficit.

The bill calls for the US to acquire 1 million Bitcoin, representing nearly 5% of the outstanding tokens. Cynthia Lummis estimates this would cost around $90 billion based on current prices, but the sum could rise if the market anticipates the government’s involvement.

“We already have the financial assets in the form of gold certificates to convert to Bitcoin,” Lummis said in an interview with Bloomberg. “So the effect on the US balance sheet is pretty neutral.”

According to Lummis’ bill, the cryptocurrency would be held for a minimum of 20 years, and the presumed appreciation in value would help to reduce the national debt.

Uphill Battles To Be Faced
Despite the industry hopes that this will be the most crypto-friendly Congress ever, some market watchers believe that Lummis’ bill, which currently has no co-sponsors, faces an uphill battle.

“It’s still putting government money on the line, and Bitcoin has not shown itself to be a particularly stable asset,” noted Jennifer J. Schulp, director of financial regulation studies at the Cato Institute’s Center for Monetary and Financial Alternatives.

She further added that “the bill asks senators and members of Congress, who may not understand crypto that well, to make a much bigger leap of faith in terms of its long-term viability.”

Novogratz Doubtful Of US Creating Strategic BTC Reserve
Michael Novogratz, the CEO of Galaxy Digital, believes there is a low likelihood of US setting up a Bitcoin strategic reserve. However, if it does, Novogratz predicted that this would push its price to $500,000 since other nations would feel compelled to create similar stockpiles.

Lummis first unveiled her bill at the Bitcoin 2024 conference after Trump announced his ambition to create a government Bitcoin reserve. After a most anticipated Trump win, the crypto market has surged massively with Bitcoin making newer highs above $93,000.

Lummis is optimistic that her BITCOIN bill, short for Boosting Innovation, Technology, and Competitiveness through Optimized Investment Nationwide, will gain support in the next Congress.

She noted that Trump has already endorsed the idea of a reserve and his closest advisers include people who understand Bitcoin and its role in our future.

3 Smartest Ways To Cash Out Your High-Value Coins

3 Smartest Ways To Cash Out Your High-Value Coins

Nicholas Morine  Wed, November 13, 2024   GOBankingRates

Whether you’re a seasoned coin collector or just started looking into precious metals and numismatics during the recent resurgence of interest surrounding this investment community, it’s important to know when — and where — to eventually unload some of your prize pieces.

There are options aplenty, ranging from reputable coin shops to travelling coin shows and traditional auction houses. What exactly are the smartest ways to sell your most valuable coins?

Established Coin Shops and Dealers

The tried-and-true method when it comes to selling your most expensive coins, established coin shops in your area can be a convenient — and financially beneficial — place to do business.

“Selling to a local dealer is one of the easiest options; it doesn’t require any shipping, minimum values or extra hassle. You get paid up front for everything, hand it over the counter, and you’re done,” wrote Lianna Spurrier for the American Numismatic Association (ANA) blog.

There is at least one major downside to selling to a coin shop, local or otherwise, according to Spurrier. Allowing that the dealer has to make a profit on your coins after having purchased them, you may not receive close to full retail value for your collection.

With that being said, having cash in hand as soon as you exit the shop is a major point in favor of this option. Those who opt to sell their product to reputable online dealer, such as APMEX, may have to wait slightly longer for payment to clear — largely due to shipping and processing times.

Travelling Coin Shows or Coin Expos

Travelling coin shows or coin expos can be very exciting, both for buyers and sellers. If you’re looking to lighten your collection, however, there are a few things to consider when thinking about selling to a vendor at one of these shows.

One advantage? The capability to comparison shop for the best price is placed right at your fingertips when you attend such a show.

Clare:  Kurdistan Minister of Planning: The census that will decide the region’s share of the budget should not be politicized

11/14/2024

The Minister of Planning in the Kurdistan Regional Government, Dara Rashid, stressed on Thursday the necessity of not politicizing the population census scheduled to be conducted in all of Iraq on November 20 and 21, considering that this census will decide the region's share of the budget.

Rashid said in a press conference held today in Erbil, attended by Shafaq News Agency correspondent, that "the population census should not be politicized, and the rights of all other components in Iraq should be preserved," adding, "The decision of the Federal Council of Ministers regarding the census was not in accordance with what we demanded."

He added, "In the shortest time and with the least budget, we completed the necessary preparations to conduct the census," describing the Kurdistan Region's concerns about the census as "constitutional and legal."

Rashid also pointed out that the 1957 census will be the basis for the 2024 census, noting that the 1957 census will preserve the rights of all components.

The Minister called on the people of the region to cooperate in conducting the census, stressing that after the 21st of this month, no one can be registered in the census.

Rashid urged the residents of the areas covered by Article 140 of the Constitution (disputed) to go there and be present during the population census, noting that the Kurdistan Regional Government is providing facilities for the return of the residents of those areas to them during the census.

He went on to say that the population census will determine the region's share of the budget, which was reduced from 17% to nearly 12%, and that the population of the region, which has increased like the rest of Iraq, will become clear, noting that the census will increase Kurdistan's representation in parliament and the rest of the federal institutions and ministries.   LINK

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

MARKET PARTICIPANTS URGE ECB TO EXTEND WHOLESALE DLT TRIALS

For the last six months the European Central Bank (ECB) has been orchestrating wholesale DLT settlement trials using central bank money. More than 70 institutions have taken part, with three different payment options available.

 Today three of the most active participants – Deutsche Börse’s Clearstream, DekaBank and Union Investment – shared their lessons as part of a Frankfurt School Blockchain Center event.

One of the three payment options was the Bundesbank’s Trigger solution, which has its own blockchain that triggers a payment on the Target2 payment system. The Banque de France has its DL3S blockchain that tokenizes central bank cash as a pilot wholesale CBDC.

And the Bank of Italy provided its TIPS Hashlink solution, a lightweight escrow smart contract for the TIPS payment system which requires little infrastructure investment.

All the participants were extremely positive about the trials and keen to see them continue.

The combination of tokenization and central bank money can cut costs, reduce risks and yield efficiencies. Several times they mentioned the potential for a digital capital markets union, as recently discussed by ECB Director Piero Cipollone.

Another consensus was the desire to hear the ECB’s roadmap for next steps before the settlement trials finish at the end of this month.

Calls for the wholesale DLT settlement trials to continue

Clearstream’s Thilo Derenbach and Dekabank’s Michael Cyrus want to avoid losing momentum. Hence, they are both keen to keep the settlement solutions available.

“We would strongly recommend that the ECB does not now close the trial period and wait for many months or possibly years to then proceed with scalable BAU (business as usual) sort of implementation of the payment rails,” said Mr Derenbach.

 “Rather communicate soon to the market how the continued ongoing usage of one, two or three or other payment solutions would be made available. The market is ready.”

Mr Cyrus expressed a similar sentiment, noting that the Bundesbank’s Trigger solution had been around for two years before the trials started. “Now if we have to wait another two or three years, this would be a clear sign that innovation is not coming to the market as quick as we like and I think as quick as the market is ready for,” said Mr Cyrus.

That kind of continuity would allow market players to focus on building out other aspects of the ecosystem, such as secondary markets. He noted that relatively few asset managers were buying the tokenized issuance because of a lack of secondary markets and the need for digital securities to be eligible as collateral for central bank activities. Digital securities should be treated the same as conventional securities.

Ideally he would like to see the Trigger solution remain available. Experimentation with tokenized commercial bank money would also be desirable.

We previously highlighted that German firms dominated the trials which works in favor of the Trigger solution, as opposed to a decision purely on the merits of each option.

Wholesale CBDC in medium term
While all three participants were reluctant to select one solution over others, the Trigger solution came to the fore. Arguably, for a digital capital markets union, broadening the options could be on the cards. We’d note that the Bank of Spain is also developing a solution. Spain’s developer is the technology partner for Fnality, the wholesale tokenized payment solution that is already in production.

All three institutions seemed to envision a wholesale CBDC as the ultimate solution, with the use of existing payment rail integrations such as the Trigger and TIPS Hashlink solutions, seen as more important in the short term.

Union Investment’s Christoph Hock said he’d heard that it would take at least two years for the Banque de France’s wholesale CBDC to go into production.

 “Stablecoins could come into production already in 2025. I think a wholesale CBDC solution by the ECB somewhere in 27/28 potentially wouldn’t be helpful for the market,” he said. 

Hence he suggested a production version of the Trigger solution could be ready in late 2025 or early 2026 and in the meantime work could progress on the wholesale CBDC with the Banque de France.

Mr Hock also observed the important role that the central banks in Switzerland and Singapore have played in making their countries leaders in the tokenization space. 

Switzerland has extended its six month wholesale CBDC pilot for a further two years. He envisions that the Bundesbank in combination with the ECB could launch a world first with a production Trigger solution.

RIPPLE VS SEC UPDATE: XRP LAWSUIT TAKES POSITIVE TURN AHEAD OF 2025 TRIAL

▪️XRP News Today: Ripple scores a significant legal victory as a US court rules in favor of Ripple Labs in the ongoing XRP lawsuit, narrowing the scope of class claims.

▪️Ripple Lawsuit Update: Judge Phyllis Hamilton grants Ripple’s motion for final judgment on settled class claims, limiting the case and setting a trial date for January 2025.

▪️The news of Ripple's legal win boosts XRP sentiment, with potential positive effects on XRP price action in the coming months

In the latest development, Ripple has scored a legal victory. In the ongoing In re Ripple Labs Inc. litigation, a US court has ruled in favor of Ripple Labs, XRP II LLC and Brad Garlinghouse.

This is a huge win for Ripple in the long-running case over unregistered securities sales. Judge Phyllis Hamilton granted Ripple’s motion for final judgment on certain class claims, which limits the case and sets up a trial in January 2025.

Key Lawsuit Details
Ripple and the plaintiffs jointly filed a motion seeking final judgment on settled class claims and a pause on remaining claims while appeals are pending. 

Judge Phyllis Hamilton’s order specifically addresses the class action claims related to unregistered securities sales, Ripple’s potential liability as a “control person,” and alleged California securities law violations.

With this ruling, the court has scheduled a trial for January 21, 2025, while pausing previous pretrial deadlines until appeals of the class claims are resolved.

Ripple’s Push for Clarity

Ripple’s request for this final judgment aims to streamline the legal process, clarify remaining claims, and shorten the case’s timeline. The court has also encouraged both sides to consider alternative dispute resolutions, hinting that settlement discussions may be on the horizon in the coming months.

Implications of the Ripple vs SEC Case
The Ripple case has implications for the SEC v. Ripple Labs case where the U.S. SEC is accusing Ripple of violating federal securities laws. Ripple’s win could further enhance the confidence in their stance against the SEC.

Especially after Trump has hinted towards regulatory clarity in the industry, and promised to fire Gary Gensler, the market anxiously awaits an action from the administration. Legal experts and Ripple CTO David Schwartz believe that a dismissal or settlement is possible. Attorney Fred Rispoli had stated that while a settlement appears more realistic, however, a full dismissal might be unlikely.

Gary Gensler To Exit Soon?
While Trump’s inauguration is set for January 20, the pro-XRP attorney James Murphy (MetaLawMan on X) believes Gensler may vacate his post as early as this month. Gensler’s potential resignation and a pro-crypto replacement could fuel a significant market resurgence.

XRP’s price remains closely tied to the regulatory clarity surrounding the token. Attorney Case Darwin agreed with a trader who noted that ‘not owning XRP during this run will be one of the biggest mistakes many will make’. 

He shared that people will not buy it, as the SEC appealed the district court’s decision, in which Ripple won a resounding victory. He emphasized that the BTC hype and its appeal will keep them away. XRP is currently trading at $0.7263, up over 3% in the last 24 hours.

With the stakes higher than ever, Ripple’s victory is more than a win—it’s a turning point for crypto.
