US Debt Market Triggering The RESET | Francis Hunt

US Debt Market Triggering The RESET | Francis Hunt

Liberty and Finance:  4-15-2025

Francis Hunt discusses a major but underreported development in the financial system — a simultaneous weakening of the U.S. dollar and rising bond yields, signaling a deeper loss of confidence in the U.S. debt market.

Hunt explains that this rare phenomenon, usually seen in emerging markets, suggests the beginning of a systemic breakdown, one that his team had predicted years ago as part of a post-2020 "reset."

He emphasizes that the foundational issue lies in the debt markets, which are no longer being blindly supported by foreign or domestic institutions due to increasing fiscal instability.

 This erosion of trust, he argues, is not due to a coordinated foreign sell-off but rather a broader institutional retreat driven by uncertainty and risk aversion.

Despite the grim outlook, Hunt notes that this environment is highly bullish for gold, as it benefits from capital fleeing fiat currencies and debt instruments.

MarkZ Disclaimer: Please consider everything on this call as my opinion. People who take notes do not catch everything and its best to watch the video so that you get everything in context.  Be sure to consult a professional for any financial decisions

Marks call was an hour later this morning

Member: Good morning Mark, mods and patriots!

Member: Mark's plane was delayed last night. He got home very late

MZ: I did not land until almost 2AM last night…then an hour and a half drive home. That’s why we started an hour late today.

Member: Markz, thank you for having todays podcast. You look very tired but so appreciated

Member: President Abraham Lincoln died 160 years ago today!  And the anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic???

Member: Saturday is the 250th anniversary of the minutemen “Shot heard around the world”

MZ: It might be fun to do a history podcast on that …if we have time this week.

Member: I am hearing a lot of chatter about this weekend! It's also a 3 day weekend.

MZ: It would be a perfect time for the RV to hit.

Member: This weekend is perfect for an RV. Saturday is the 250th anniversery of "the shot heard round the world," aka "the birth of American Liberty."

MZ: On the historic bond side- I am still hearing they have made wonderful progress. I have not had an update since yesterday afternoon…..but was told they are very much on target for completing  what they need to this week in order to move forward.

MZ: My understanding of the “Move forward” part is after bonds come the groups , CMKX  Farm Claims and Prosperity Packages.  Then BAM….it’s us.

MZ: The confirmations from the bond side is a very good sign.  They expect to have enough of them done this week to move forward with the rest.

Member: Mark back in the day it was always 30% bonds need to be done before they move to the rest of us…..hope that happens ASAP.

Member: There was a big piece out of Iraq about SAMA International Exchange. They need to put 5% onto Forex at New Exchange Rate to push the Iraqi International RV. Published Iraqi AM.

MZ: I have not seen that one…but there is some good stuff coming out of Iraq.

MZ: “Budget tables on the way to the dome of Parliament”  it may arrive as early as the today the 15th. ….after it was passed by the Council of Ministers (COM)  Parliament has been surprised by the delays of getting them the 2025 budget tables….The budget was supposed to reach Parliament before the end of last month. What has been the hold ups????

MZ: Could it be because of the article from yesterday that states because of the change in oil prices they will need to “REVALUE their currency” ???  I think that is exactly why they have delayed those budget tables. They are waiting for that new rate.  That is y strong personal opinion…and also the opinions of my contacts in Iraq.

Member: TNT said the last delay was caused by waiting for Iran to sign deal. Now done?

Member: When the "New" US Dollar comes out, will we have 2 tiered pricing as value to the "Old" dollar changes

MZ: I was told we would have 90 days to exchange the old currency for the new US currency. Maybe longer.

Member: Will we still be required to request free and clear letters at our exchange for buying a house /vehicle ect???

MZ: I was told we will not need a free and clear letter because with the new financial system they will already know the source of your funds.

Member: Viet Nam found a bunch of gold to mine...

Member: With Trump's pressure on Vietnam to revalue their Currency and China's Xi visiting over the weekend,  Things are looking good for a RV of the VND…imo

Member: I just heard that Vietnam is ready !! They started preparing in 2020 and that by 2025 , don't know the exact date , they will mandate International rates in 2025 !

MZ: Trump is pressuring Vietnam to revalue their currency right now….and it fits in with all the other timing. Along with the delay of the budget tables –now happening this week….it looks like they both may be going at the same time. Which is what we always expected.

Member: Well well well...priceless!! The IRS chief information officer announces his resignation on the eve of tax filing day!!What's that tell us ladies n gents?? Good bye IRS???

Member: Thanks Mark for all you do to keep us informed.

Member: Everyone have a great day….and see you this evening……Be blessed.

Global Financial Crisis:

THE ECONOMIC STRIKE: COLLAPSE THE DOLLAR

Amid this chaos, China begins a strategic unloading of U.S. Treasuries. Not all at once – just enough to start the avalanche. -U.S Bond prices collapse -Interest rates explode -Stock market spirals -Inflation surges -The dollar’s credibility evaporates

Quietly, U.S. banks have begun repatriating gold from overseas, flying physical gold back from London to New York. COMEX inventories have surged by 75% in preparation for currency upheaval. China, meanwhile, is stockpiling gold, solidifying BRICS trade partnerships, and preparing to bypass the U.S. dollar entirely in favor of yuan-based settlements. This is the d***h knell of the fiat system.

The Final CRASH: Money Collapses Now - Byron King

Daniela Cambone: 

“Gold is a reminder that the U.S. government runs a dishonest money system,” says Byron King, editor at Paradigm Press Group.

In an interview with Daniela Cambone, King breaks down the surging global demand for gold—not driven by conspiracy theories, but by a growing lack of trust in the U.S. dollar.

 As countries watched the West freeze Russian assets during the Ukraine conflict, many began rethinking the safety of holding dollar-denominated reserves.

He also explains why, in a world where currencies are backed by promises, gold stands alone as real, independent wealth. “Gold is nobody else’s liability.”

Watch now to find out why King believes now is the time to own gold."

What Does A Financial Advisor Do And When Should You Get One?

What Does A Financial Advisor Do And When Should You Get One?

Brian Baker, CFA  Mon, April 14, 2025   Bankrate

Most people are aware of financial advisors and may even hire one at some point in their lives, but what exactly do financial advisors do? Financial advisors provide advice and guidance on a variety of financial issues you’ll encounter over the course of your life such as investments, retirement planning, insurance and even taxes.

Here’s what else you should know about financial advisors, including the advantages and disadvantages of using one and when you should consider hiring one.

Financial Advisors: What They Do And How They Can Help Manage Your Money

A financial advisor is someone who helps you manage various aspects of your financial life. People most often associate financial advisors with planning for retirement, but they can also be involved in general investment management, budgeting, insurance, taxes, estate planning and more.

Financial advisors charge a fee, often expressed as a percentage of your assets, in return for their services. They can assist you with several different aspects of your financial life, but not all advisors or firms provide the same services.

Here are some of the common areas financial advisors provide guidance on:

Goal planning: One of the first things an advisor typically does is ask clients about their short- and long-term financial goals. A financial plan is then built around achieving those goals while taking into account the unique circumstances of each client.

Budgeting: If you’re just starting out in your financial journey or even if you’re more established, advisors can help you construct an overall budget and identify ways to boost your savings, if necessary.

Investments: Financial advisors also provide advice on your investment portfolio and can assess things such as your overall asset allocation. They can also answer questions and recommend investment products such as mutual funds and ETFs.

Retirement planning: Nearly every financial advisor will be able to assist with retirement planning, which is often the biggest long-term financial goal for most people. They can help you navigate your employer’s 401(k) plan and offer guidance on other choices such as a traditional or Roth IRA.

Taxes: Financial advisors can provide guidance that takes into account current and future tax considerations.

Insurance: Financial advisors can also help you determine whether life insurance or annuity products make sense for you, but be sure to understand whether the advisor will receive a commission on the product they’re selling to you.

Estate planning: Planning for the end of life isn’t easy, but financial advisors may be able to guide you through the estate planning process, which will make it easier on your heirs when that time comes.

Race Against Purchasing Power Reduction

Race Against Purchasing Power Reduction

The Final Wake Up Call By Peter B Meyer April 15 2025

In today’s world, credit or debt-money is printed out of thin air in absurd amounts, and so much is borrowed that it can never be fully repaid to creditors. It took the US “216 years to accumulate $8.5 trillion in debt, and then another eight years to double that amount”.

Paper money works great for the rich, who can hedge their exposure to the currency and whose access to fixed-rate credit allows them to buy huge amounts of assets. But it is terrible for the middle class.

The whole slimy global structure is a fraudulent illusion. Fake money. Fake news. Fake GDP. Fake stimulus. Fake growth. Fake opinions. And fake statistics.

All fake money does is distort, mislead and deceive. As always, fake money can make some people, the ‘insiders’, richer by making the ‘outsiders’ poorer.

Ninety per cent of the financial assets of any country are owned by 10 per cent of the people. Want to make them richer? Just give Wall Street more fake money. And the overall effect is chaos, confusion and envy.

That is why one of the techniques of modern warfare is to counterfeit the enemy’s currency in order to destroy its economy. While this has made some people richer, there is no known case in history where ‘stimulus’ has made the majority of people richer.

Most people rely on the economy for their income, not the stock market. The economy is a complex web of give and take. Help the savers and you punish the borrowers. Benefit the exporters and you restrict the importers. Help the rich and you kick the poor. If you try to stimulate the whole economy by throwing money out of helicopters, all you do is raise prices and create misery and chaos for everyone.

Once the cabal started living off “printing press” money, they became dependent on it. So it has to print more and more to stay afloat. There is no example in history where printing money has made an economy better; none. Nor has it ever made people a penny richer. Instead, it always leads to poverty, chaos, inflation, social unrest and corruption.

The media promotes printing money as a “stimulus”. But there is not a single record in the long, sad history of state-run economies that actually reports improvement from printing money.

“Distorting” or “perverting” would be better words, as they suggest unnatural and disgusting tendencies. There are many things that can stimulate. But economies are not hollow or dependent. They are complex webs, intricately balanced and interconnected. Every string has two ends and many connections. Pull one end and the whole web falls apart.

You can encourage savers or borrowers by raising or lowering interest rates. But you can’t do both at the same time. If you encourage savers, you don’t encourage borrowers. If you stimulate borrowers, you don’t stimulate savers. No one has yet figured out how to stimulate both at the same time.

Economists say people shouldn’t worry because money supply and consumer inflation are under control. They are wrong. The numbers are suspect and the economists are missing the point. They can find almost any inflation number they want, depending on the assumptions they make.

Money Supply

What about the money supply? The nature of money has changed. Since 1971, the money supply has become less important.

Gold and silver were eliminated in 1968, when the requirement that the Federal Reserve hold gold reserves to back Federal Reserve notes, or paper money, issued ended.

Gold was permanently eliminated in 1971 when President Nixon ended direct convertibility. And it was replaced by “credit or debt-money”.

In the old-fashioned sense, people don’t have much “money” these days. They have little savings. And what they do save is not real money – it is a short-term debt instrument issued by their central bank, which is subject to inflation and depreciation.

Not Money But Credit

When people buy a house, a car or even a three-course meal, they don’t use cash. Instead, they use credit. What matters to them is not how much money they have, but how much credit they have available, and whether they have the cash flow to keep up with their rising debt burdens. Their purchasing power depends on the continued supply of credit.

In short, central bank money can disrupt, but not improve. And the more you pretend to stimulate the economy with printed money, the bigger the mess you make.

Disruption reduces efficiency, real investment and wealth, slows growth, causes people to make bad decisions and even makes them feel cheated. More disruption is ultimately self-perpetuating; the day the debt is repaid does not exist. The world is a false illusion. It is becoming increasingly difficult to hold the world together.

The Real Price Of Gold

The real gold price will be set by the market and especially by the BRICS countries. Once, the real gold price will only be revealed when the Comex, all the futures exchanges and the bullion banks have settled all their paper gold obligations in physical gold.

All paper gold will be worthless and physical gold will really be worth its weight in gold

Gold’s rise above $3,000 per ounce marks the beginning of a sustained rally. The momentum has only increased, as investors continue to push the precious metal to new highs.

Several forces are driving this remarkable rise, including inflation concerns and central bank buying. But what’s particularly interesting is gold’s relationship with the US dollar.

While gold prices typically fall when the dollar strengthens, the past few months have seen a reversal of this pattern – surprising market watchers.

The Relationship Between Gold Prices And The Dollar

Experts break down why the price of gold continues to rise and the precious metal’s complex relationship with the dollar. Recent changes in market patterns and key economic indicators offer clues as to where gold prices may be heading.

Why gold prices are rising ”

Gold can be a valuable asset in a portfolio precisely because it has a low correlation with other asset classes,”

and this independence from traditional market patterns has caught the attention of investors, especially as markets face increasing uncertainty.

The appeal of gold’s unique behaviour has contributed to its impressive rise, but it’s not the only factor at work. Industry experts point to other forces that have pushed gold prices higher:

Central bank buying: Asian central banks, particularly China and India, have dramatically increased their gold reserves. Investor sentiment: More investors are adding gold to diversify their portfolios amid inflationary expectations and financial stability concerns.

De-dollarisation:

The BRICS+ countries are reducing their dependence on the US dollar.

Market evolution: Gold prices are now responding to a wider range of global economic factors.

How gold prices typically move with the dollar Henry Yoshida, co-founder of Rocket Dollar, points out that gold prices and the US dollar traditionally move in opposite directions. He explains;

“A stronger US dollar will suppress the price of gold, while a weaker US dollar is likely to push the price of gold higher through increased demand”.

But Michael Petch, co-founder and president of Argo Digital Gold, points out that this relationship isn’t absolute.

 “When there’s financial instability, gold and the dollar can [rise as people] seek safe havens,” he says.

The complex interplay between gold and the dollar

“Large-scale government accumulation has added a demand-side force that can push [gold] prices higher, even in a strong dollar environment,”

Supply constraints: Mining strikes and environmental regulations can limit gold production. As a result, gold prices can rise even when the dollar is strong.

Geopolitical Risks:

Rising global tensions and trade disputes create uncertainty. This naturally drives people to invest in safe-haven assets such as gold and silver – sometimes alongside a strong dollar.

 Inflation concerns: Investors may turn to precious metals, including gold and silver, as a hedge against inflation, regardless of the current strength of the dollar.

Digital gold investment vehicles: Investment products such as exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have made gold more accessible, but also more sensitive to market sentiment. This is creating new patterns in the gold-dollar relationship. But this investment is not a safe haven, as it is not the real thing and not owned by people.

Foreign Policy Is Changing

More countries are reducing their dollar holdings in favour of gold, creating steady demand. The gold rush could continue and new all-time highs, according to Yoshida. He sees a strong outlook, especially if prices maintain support above $3,000.

There are several market indicators that can help to track the price of gold. Petch suggests looking beyond the usual metrics such as inflation rates and Federal Reserve policy. Here are the signals that experts recommend keeping an eye on:

Central bank buying: Continued buying by major central banks signals strong long-term demand.

Real yields: Gold tends to shine when inflation-adjusted interest rates fall.

US fiscal policy and the Treasury market: Growing concerns about US debt levels could drive more investors into gold.

Supply and demand: Gold lease rates and mine production levels help gauge market strength.

Geopolitical tensions: Trade wars, tariffs and global instability often boost gold prices.

The Bottom Line

Understanding gold’s relationship to the US dollar can help to make smarter investment decisions. There are many ways to invest in today’s gold market. For example, gold bars and coins to hold physical assets for the long term.

Buying gold ETFs is not a good idea. The investor does not own the actual gold.

 The Cabal Is Finished

This year brings our liberation from debt bondage. Behind the scenes, we are already well on our way. Trust the PLAN, Q keeps saying: ‘We have all the information.

Our Galactic Alliance has the luxury of waiting for the perfect moment to deliver the death blow to the Deep State. The final decision will be made by Father/Mother GOD.

No wonder the Cabal is in a complete panic. The world is on the brink of permanent peace. This is an achievement of the highest order, created by patriots with the help of our extraterrestrial brothers and sisters. All foreign military forces and war materiel are returning to their home bases.

It is all over for the cabal. Everyone can look forward to a prosperous and healthy future. Very soon we will truly live as free inhabitants of planet Earth, evolving as our Creator always intended.

The strongest souls on Earth right now are those who understand that there are two overlapping realities, two different timelines. And instead of living in the energy of fear, they are preparing themselves to thrive regardless of the outcome of this spiritual battle.

For these souls know that they are protected and that they are here to merge both realities into one higher consciousness. They transmit truth, light and love for they know that nothing can stop the coming.

Real g reform will only come after a major currency crisis. And that’ll be far too late for most people. It won’t come until after a catastrophic property and stock market crash, after the bankruptcy of dozens of financial institutions and after many people’s savings have been completely wiped out.

But there is light … this is the right moment the world has been waiting for, because this is the moment to implement the new QFS gold-backed monetary system provided by our extraterrestrial brothers and sisters. Be assured, a golden era is upon us!

It is a majority enough to destroy the cabal and end our oppression if every waking person convinces just one sleeper that planet Earth belongs to us!

 Bear in mind that the new QFS money system will not be in place until the cabal has destroyed itself or the mob has awakened en masse.

“Tidbits From TNT” Tuesday Morning 4-15-2025

TNT:

Tishwash:  Iraq awaits economic breakthrough following US-Iran agreement

Amid the successive crises facing Iraq, the national economy stands on the edge of waiting and anticipation, searching for a glimmer of hope that will open windows of relief amid the blocked financial horizon and the tightening noose on the local market.

Amid the anxiety of traders and the fear of consumers, the signs of the anticipated agreement between the United States of America and the Islamic Republic of Iran emerge as an opportunity that may carry within it the features of an economic breakthrough for Iraq, after years of suffering due to sanctions and regional tensions.

With every announcement or hint of progress in the negotiations, Iraqis' hopes are pinned on the possibility of liberating themselves from the shackles of complex transactions, and that this agreement will transform from a mere political card into a key to facilitating trade, ensuring stability, and protecting what remains of their purchasing power and economic capacity, which has been weakened by regional tensions.

Economic expert Nasser Al-Tamimi confirmed on Monday (April 14, 2025) that the expected agreement between the United States of America and the Islamic Republic of Iran will have economic benefits for Iraq.

Al-Tamimi told Baghdad Today, "The expected agreement between Washington and Tehran during the next phase is not only politically and security-wise important for Iraq, but also has economic benefits for Iraq.

This agreement will lift some US sanctions against Iran, especially those related to the dollar issue. This may allow Iraq to conduct commercial transactions with Iran in dollars through official and legitimate means, and stop the black money transfers used by most traders."

He added, "Among these economic benefits is Iraq's continued import of gas and electricity without any American obstacles or impediments. Therefore, the anticipated US-Iran agreement is of great importance to Iraq. However, if no agreement is reached and the situation escalates between the two parties, Iraq will be the most affected by this."

With the escalation of talk about a possible agreement between Washington and Tehran, expectations are growing that some of the restrictions imposed will be eased. This could give Iraq a new opportunity to regulate its trade with Iran through official and legitimate channels, mitigate the impact of recurring energy crises, and restore some balance to the local market, which has been chronically constrained by these regional and international challenges.  link

Tishwash:  Al-Sudani's advisor: Annual returns from investing reserves are no less than $2 billion.

The Prime Minister's advisor for financial affairs, Mazhar Mohammed Salih, confirmed on Tuesday that the "annual returns" from investing foreign reserves are no less than two billion dollars, according to his estimates.

"These investments are often short-term and directed toward US, European, or British treasury bonds, with the aim of achieving appropriate returns," Saleh told Shafaq News Agency.

He added, "These investments are characterized by low risk and generate appropriate returns, and the invested assets can be quickly converted into cash without incurring losses."

Saleh pointed out that "profits generated from reserves are divided into two types: the first is realized, represented by direct interest, and the second is unrealized, resulting from diversifying the investment portfolio, in addition to realizing potential profits from exchange rate differences between currencies and gold."

The Central Bank of Iraq previously revealed a decline in foreign reserves for 2024, reaching 130.81 trillion dinars, a 10.18% decrease compared to the same period in 2023, when these reserves reached 145.64 trillion dinars  link

Tishwash:  Economist: The US price war aims to cover inflation, not boost the economy

Mustafa Hantoush, a researcher and expert in financial and banking affairs, confirmed on Monday that the price war launched by US President Donald Trump aims primarily to cover the inflation rates accumulated in the United States over the past years, and not to boost the US economy as it is being promoted.

Hantoush explained, in a statement to Al-Maalomah, that “the halt of major economies, especially China and Europe, from investing in US Treasury bonds directly contributed to the rise in inflation rates without this being matched by actual growth in the US economy.”

He explained that "the United States relies on printing dollars and covering them through global markets when its economy is growing, but in the event of a decline in growth, this causes an exacerbation of domestic inflation, which is what the current US administration is trying to address by attracting global companies to the US market."

He pointed out that "current policies aim to stimulate foreign and local capital to enter the US market as a means of reducing inflation, and are not the result of real strength in basic economic indicators." End  link

Tishwash:  Rafidain Bank announces the disbursement of interest on the first issue of "Emaar Bonds."

Rafidain Bank announced on Sunday the commencement of disbursing the first-year interest on the first issuance of Emaar bonds, stressing that the disbursement process is being conducted in an organized and smooth manner to ensure speedy completion. 

The bank said in a statement, seen by Al-Eqtisad News, that "based on Rafidain Bank's commitment to its pledges towards investors and citizens who support the reconstruction and development process, we are pleased to inform you that the disbursement of the first year's interest on the first issuance of reconstruction bonds will begin on April 9, 2025."

The bank added, "We invite all eligible investors to visit the nearest branch of our bank in Baghdad and the governorates to receive their dues."

The bank confirmed, according to the statement, that "the disbursement process will be carried out according to an organized and smooth mechanism that ensures speedy completion," adding that "the interest is fully available and has been transferred by the Central Bank of Iraq to our account," calling for "bringing supporting documents or documents related to the bond when visiting to facilitate the procedures."

The statement concluded that "this step comes within the framework of our commitment to providing the best banking services and enhancing confidence in development bonds as a safe and stable investment option  link

An Economic Expert Told Nina: There Is A Need To Establish A Supreme Authority For "Trans-Governmental" Strategies

Monday, April 14, 2025, | Economic Number of reads: 197  Baghdad / NINA / Economic and financial expert, Dhurgham Mohammed Ali, confirmed on Monday that all strategic government programs cannot be completed after the change of governments due to the change of goals and plans from one government to another. He stressed the need to draft a law establishing a permanent, cross-government supreme authority for strategic policies.

Mohammed Ali said in a special statement to the National Iraqi News Agency ( NINA ): "The concerned authorities must draft a law establishing a permanent, cross-government supreme authority for strategic policies with judicial supervision so that its decisions are binding on all governments," stressing: "Economic reform cannot be achieved through interim measures, but rather through strategic plans that continue for years with the aim of achieving what is required."

The economic expert explained: "Many of the components of economic reform that have begun to take place need follow-up because they take a long time to yield practical results that positively reflect on the Iraqi economy."

He pointed out that "banking and financial reform, developing the private sector and the investment environment are the priorities, along with combating corruption to achieve the best possible results." /End   https://ninanews.com/Website/News/Details?Key=1197718

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

NORTH CAROLINA BILL PROPOSES ALLOWING TAX PAYMENTS USING CRYPTO

▪️North Carolina lawmakers filed a bill that seeks to authorize the use of crypto for economic transactions, such as tax payments.

▪️The state has previously proposed bills to allow state investments in crypto.

North Carolina lawmakers have introduced a bill that seeks to allow the use of digital assets in tax payments and other economic transactions, marking the latest crypto-related legislative effort in the state.

Representative Neal Jackson filed H.B. 920, the Digital Asset Freedom Act, last Thursday with two co-sponsors.

"Digital assets are recognized as a valid medium of exchange in North Carolina," the bill said. "A transaction shall not be denied legal effect or enforceability solely because it uses a digital asset."

The Digital Asset Freedom Act outlines the criteria that digital assets must meet to be considered eligible. It requires a digital asset to have at least $750 billion in market capitalization and a daily trading volume of at least $10 billion to ensure liquidity and market depth.

The bill added that an eligible digital asset should have at least a 10-year track record of operating in an open market, with proven security and resistance to censorship.

BINANCE EXECUTIVES MET WITH US GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS TO DISCUSS EASING OF REGULATORY SUPERVISION: REPORT

Executives at Binance reportedly sat down with Treasury Department officials in March to discuss the possibility of relaxing the US government’s regulatory scrutiny of the world’s largest crypto exchange.

Citing people familiar with the matter, the Wall Street Journal reports that Binance wants the Treasury Department to remove one of the two monitors that oversee the exchange.

The US government is keeping a close eye on Binance after it pleaded guilty to having engaged in anti-money laundering (AML), unlicensed money transmitting and sanctions violations.

The Treasury Department appointed a monitor to ensure that Binance complies with anti-money laundering laws, but a spokesperson for the exchange says that monitors led to “inefficient and costly burdens.”

The report says that during last month’s meeting, Binance chief executive Richard Teng and Chief Legal Officer Eleanor Hughes asked Treasury officials to remove the monitorship, or reduce its duration and scope.

Binance’s executives are said to be optimistic that the Trump administration will greenlight the request.

According to WSJ, the meeting took place after Binance and representatives from the Trump family-backed crypto venture World Liberty Financial held discussions to list the project’s dollar-pegged stablecoin, USD1, on the crypto trading platform.

A spokesperson for World Liberty Financial says that the company is aiming for USD1 to be “accessible for millions globally.”

Henig:  Vietnam discovers 12 mines containing over 10 tons of gold

A major gold discovery in central Vietnam has revealed 12 mines containing over 10 tons of gold and 16 tons of silver, according to the Mid-Central Geological Division. The discoveries were made following geological investigations across 32 areas with gold ore potential.

Vietnamese authorities have identified around 500 gold-bearing locations nationwide. Of these, 30 sites have undergone detailed surveys, revealing an estimated total of 300 tons of gold reserves. Most of these deposits are concentrated in mountainous areas of northern Vietnam and several central provinces.

 Starting in 2025, the Department of Geology and Minerals has been launching a new project to evaluate mineral potential in central Vietnam, focusing on localities like Quang Nam, Quang Ngai, Binh Dinh and Phu Yen provinces.

Another mineral survey project, initiated in 2017, led to the recent discovery of 40 gold mines with total estimated reserves of nearly 30 tons. LINK

Mnt Goat   ...remember that the “Development Road Project” is still underway and the  initial funding for the first “Economic City” was provided...This is what is going to bring the economic boom.
