Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

BITGET LAUNCHES BGUSD — A 4% YIELD-BEARING STABLE ASSET BACKED BY REAL-WORLD ASSETS

Bitget is diving into the red-hot real-world asset (RWA) sector with a new crypto product — BGUSD, a yield-bearing stable asset offering 4% APY, paid daily.

What Is BGUSD?

🔹 BGUSD is not your average stablecoin — Bitget CEO Gracy Chen calls it a “yield-bearing stable asset certificate.”

🔹 It offers 4% annual yield, credited daily to users’ spot wallets.

🔹 Subscriptions are available via USDC or USDT, and BGUSD is redeemable back to USDC on demand.

🔹 Yield is generated through a basket of tokenized real-world assets like U.S. Treasury bills and high-grade money-market funds.

How It Works

Bitget partners with regulated tokenization platforms like Superstate to manage its asset reserves.

🛡️ Liquidity: Bitget directly manages the reserve pool and maintains on-hand USDC to guarantee redemptions.

📑 Transparency: Bitget will implement third-party attestations and audits soon, though its institutional partners already follow strict regulatory oversight.

“Transparency and accountability are core principles of BGUSD’s framework.” — Gracy Chen, CEO, Bitget

No Stablecoin, No Security — A New Category?

Bitget says BGUSD is not a stablecoin or a security, and therefore isn’t subject to traditional licensing requirements.

“It’s structured as a yield-bearing stable asset certificate exclusive to the Bitget platform.” — Chen

🌍 Availability: Access will be restricted in jurisdictions with digital asset regulations.

Why It Matters

The launch comes as yield-bearing stablecoins explode, growing from $1.5B in January to $11B in May, now comprising 4.5% of the stablecoin market.

📈 Regulatory tailwinds from the Trump administration are pushing growth:

• SEC approved the first U.S. yield-bearing stablecoin by Figure Markets (Feb 2025)

• Legislative support includes the STABLE Act and the GENIUS Act

Bottom Line

With BGUSD, Bitget enters the fast-growing RWA + stablecoin arena — offering a product that merges crypto convenience with traditional finance yield.

JP MORGAN DOWNGRADES U.S. DOLLAR — SAYS BRICS GIANTS CHINA & INDIA ARE ASCENDING

JP Morgan is shifting gears—cutting its outlook on the U.S. dollar while turning bullish on emerging markets, particularly BRICS powerhouses China and India.

Dollar Weakness Opens Door for BRICS Surge

According to JP Morgan’s latest research note, the U.S. dollar could remain soft throughout 2025, and that may be the catalyst for a major capital shift into BRICS markets.

📉 The DXY Index has slid into the 98 range, struggling to hold above key resistance levels near 100.

“USD could stay soft this year, which would help EM assets (BRICS),” the report stated.
“EM historically traded inversely to the dollar. The big question: Is the 15-year EM downtrend finally reversing?”

Spotlight on China, India, and Brazil

JP Morgan highlighted China, India, and Brazil as top picks within the emerging market space.

“Within EM, we think (BRICS members) China could be of interest… as well as India and Brazil.”

The CSI index and H-shares are seen as poised for a catch-up rally, with institutional and hedge fund flows already shifting into these markets.

U.S. Policy Risks Amplify Dollar Headwinds

JP Morgan cautioned that U.S. fiscal uncertainty may worsen dollar weakness:

“US bond yields may rise short-term—fueled by potential aggressive tax cuts, rising deficits, and inflationary tariffs—but that backdrop could actually accelerate EM strength.”

The combination of slowing dollar momentum, global investment inflows, and rising geopolitical autonomy in BRICS may lead to a broader de-dollarization trend in the global economy.

Why It Matters

🌍 As the dollar stumbles, BRICS nations could emerge as investment darlings, with massive implications for:

• Global FX reserves

• Commodities pricing

• Crypto flows into BRICS-aligned regions

Bottom Line

JP Morgan is betting on the rise of the East. With the dollar losing steam, BRICS nations may finally flip the global economic script — and investors are already moving capital accordingly.

“Tidbits From TNT” Tuesday Morning 5-27-2025

Tishwash:  Iraq: April oil revenues are only enough to cover salaries

Economic expert Nabil Al-Marsoumi confirmed on Tuesday that Iraq's oil revenues for last April were only sufficient to cover salaries and expenses of oil licensing companies.

Al-Marsoumi said in a post on social media that "the decline in Iraqi oil exports and the drop in crude oil prices from $72.5 in March to $66.7 per barrel last April led to a drop in oil revenues from $7.716 billion to $6.738 billion, a decrease of 15%."

The Iraqi Ministry of Oil revealed its statistics on crude oil exports and revenues for the month of April on Monday .

The ministry stated in a statement received by Shafaq News Agency that the total oil exports and revenues achieved for last April, according to the final statistics issued by the State Oil Marketing Organization (SOMO), amounted to 100 million, 953 thousand, and 282 barrels, with revenues amounting to six billion, 738 million, and 309 thousand dollars .

She pointed out that the total quantities of crude oil exported last month from oil fields in central and southern Iraq amounted to 99,752,879 barrels, while exports from the Qayyarah field in Nineveh Governorate amounted to 900,584 barrels, while the quantity of exports to Jordan amounted to 299,819 barrels link

Tishwash:  After the Eid holiday, Parliament prepares for extraordinary sessions, and the final legislation will begin on July 9. 

MP Raed al-Maliki confirmed on Monday (May 26, 2025) that the House of Representatives is preparing to hold a number of extraordinary sessions after the Eid al-Adha holiday to pass some important laws.

In a statement received by Baghdad Today, al-Maliki said, "In our last meeting with the Speaker of Parliament, he explained that there is no point in extending the legislative session during the month of May due to disagreements within the Coordination Framework forces regarding some issues, including amending the elections law." 

He added, "Therefore, the Council Presidency's intention was to utilize the time following the Eid holiday by holding extraordinary sessions, leading up to July 9, the date for the start of the Council's final legislative term." 

He pointed out that they "pushed parliament to hold extraordinary sessions to complete the second reading of some laws and vote on them, along with other laws," noting that they "will resort to using popular pressure on parliament to complete important laws." 

According to Al-Maliki, the laws up for vote include:

_ Amendment to the Ministry of Education Law

_ Budget tables

_ Code of Sharia Rulings on Personal Status Matters

_ Service law for members of the Popular Mobilization Forces

_ Amendment to the Radiation Control Law

_ Lawyers' Law

_ Programmers Syndicate Law

_ Reading the amendment to the Law of the Union of Jurists

_ Amending the Internal Security Forces Law

Tishwash: A word of truth for a man who has a right.. Al-Sudani leads a regional and international movement to strengthen international relations.

Since assuming office, Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani has led an active diplomatic effort at the regional and international levels. This effort aims to restore Iraq's relations with its Arab and international surroundings and build a new, positive image for the country, within the framework of a foreign policy based on balance, openness, and constructive dialogue.

Since assuming office in late 2022, Al-Sudani has been keen to make diplomacy one of his most prominent tools in supporting the national economy. This is achieved by attracting foreign investment, expanding cooperation with various countries around the world, activating economic and trade partnerships, and raising the level of Iraq's representation in international forums.

Al-Sudani's movements included official visits to several important capitals, including Washington, Tehran, Riyadh, Ankara, Abu Dhabi, Paris, and Berlin, during which he held high-level talks with heads of state and senior officials, resulting in understandings and agreements in the fields of energy, transportation, security, education, and investment.

Indeed, Al-Sudani realizes that Iraq's restoration of its regional and international standing cannot be achieved without changing the stereotypical image that has been entrenched about the country over the past decades. He is therefore working diligently to strengthen Iraq's presence at international conferences, affirm its commitment to international conventions and the principles of good neighborliness, and seek to resolve disputes through peaceful means.

In this context, Iraq participated in important international conferences and initiatives related to climate, food security, combating corruption, and countering terrorism. The Prime Minister had a notable presence at these conferences, delivering several speeches that affirmed Iraq's commitment to its role as a responsible regional actor, striving for stability and shared development.

Among the priorities of the Sudanese-led diplomatic effort are supporting the Iraqi economy by opening up to new markets, attracting capital and investments, and opening the door to bilateral cooperation in the fields of technology, energy, and infrastructure.

The Sudanese president has announced on more than one occasion that Iraq welcomes foreign companies wishing to invest, emphasizing the provision of a safe and stimulating environment, and encouraging the private sector to enter into strategic partnerships with its counterparts in friendly countries. 

In addition to the economic dimension, Al-Sudani did not overlook the importance of Iraq's role in calming regional tensions, as Baghdad has played a mediating role in a number of issues, including the Saudi-Iranian dialogue and security coordination with neighboring countries to confront the challenges of terrorism and limit drug and weapons smuggling.

 The man also worked to raise the level of Iraq's representation in international organizations and bodies, by nominating competent figures to fill important positions, and actively participating in sessions of the United Nations, the League of Arab States, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, and others, with the aim of conveying Iraq's voice and defending its interests.

In this report, we are not seeking to create media propaganda, as much as we want to emphasize the principle of "give each his due," a principle we are keen to apply with everyone, including entities or figures with whom we disagree or differ. It is a word of truth about a man who has rights. link

Your Debt is about to Get a lot More Expensive

Your Debt is about to Get a lot More Expensive

Heresy Financial:  5-27-2025

The financial landscape is shifting, and according to Heresy Financial, if you have debt, you need to pay attention. A confluence of factors is pointing towards a significant spike in interest rates, impacting everything from mortgages to national borrowing. Understanding these forces is crucial for both borrowers and investors alike.

The 10-year Treasury yield serves as a crucial benchmark for various interest rates, particularly mortgages. It reflects the market’s expectation of future inflation and economic growth. As the 10-year yield rises, so too will the cost of borrowing. This correlation is particularly evident in the mortgage market, where rates often track Treasury benchmarks closely.

Heresy Financial points to a worrying trend of rising rates coupled with increasing volatility in the bond market. This signifies uncertainty and anxiety about the future, driving investors to demand higher returns for lending their money. This, in turn, translates into higher borrowing costs for everyone.

The bond market is driven by the interplay of sellers and buyers. When demand for bonds is high, prices rise, and yields (interest rates) fall. However, if sellers dominate, bond prices fall, and yields rise. Currently, the market seems to be shifting towards a seller-dominated environment, putting upward pressure on interest rates.

The analysis suggests a “breakout” scenario for interest rates, implying a significant and sustained increase. This is a stark warning for borrowers, as higher interest payments can quickly strain budgets and erode financial stability.

A major contributing factor to the rising rate environment is the exploding national debt. The government needs to borrow vast sums of money to finance its spending, increasing the supply of bonds in the market. This increased supply dilutes demand and pushes yields higher.

The question posed is critical: Would you lend money to an entity with a rapidly growing debt pile? As the national debt balloons, investors become increasingly wary of the government’s ability to repay its obligations, demanding higher interest rates as compensation for the perceived risk.

We’ve enjoyed a long period of low interest rates, but the debt cycle is showing signs of reversing. This means the era of cheap borrowing is coming to an end, and individuals, businesses, and the government will face higher financing costs.

Heresy Financial draws parallels between the current Federal Reserve strategy and that of the 1970s. Just as then, the Fed is attempting to combat inflation, but the effectiveness of their tools is debatable, and the potential for unintended consequences is a real concern.

The idea of “growing out of the debt” through increased economic output is often floated as a solution. However, the analysis challenges this notion, highlighting flaws in the growth plan and questioning whether the economic growth generated is sustainable or even sufficient to offset the debt burden.

One of the factors hindering economic growth is overregulation. Excessive and burdensome regulations can stifle innovation, discourage investment, and ultimately slow down economic activity, making it harder to “grow out” of the debt.

The core issue is unsustainable government spending. Meaningful change requires a fundamental shift towards fiscal responsibility, prioritizing balanced budgets and debt reduction.

The article expresses skepticism that the next administration, regardless of political affiliation, will effectively address the debt crisis. The challenges are immense, and the political will to make the necessary tough choices may be lacking.

For investors, this changing landscape means bracing for volatility. Rising interest rates can negatively impact bond prices, and the overall economic uncertainty can weigh on stock markets. Diversification and a focus on long-term investment strategies are crucial in navigating these turbulent times.

The message is clear: the era of cheap debt is fading. Rising interest rates, driven by ballooning national debt and evolving market dynamics, are poised to impact everyone. Now is the time to understand these forces, adjust your financial strategies, and prepare for a more expensive borrowing environment. For investors, vigilance and a well-diversified portfolio are key to weathering the potential storm.

With The Penny Going Away, What Should You Do With The Ones In Your Coin Jar?

With The Penny Going Away, What Should You Do With The Ones In Your Coin Jar?

Mike Snider and Daniel de Visé, USA TODAY  Sun, May 25, 2025

Learn to love your coins.

That’s the message from Kevin McColly, CEO of Coinstar, the company behind those coin-cashing machines you see in supermarkets.  American consumers made only 16% of their payments in cash in 2023, according to the Federal Reserve. A 2022 Pew survey found that two-fifths of consumers never use cash at all.

President Donald Trump has ordered the Treasury to stop minting pennies because their production cost exceeds their value. (Intriguingly, the same is true of nickels.)

Many Americans regard both nickels and pennies as more nuisance than currency. The typical household is sitting on $60 to $90 in neglected coins, enough to fill one or two pint-size beer mugs, according to the Federal Reserve. Americans throw away millions of dollars in coins every year, literally treating them like trash.

Why do we treat coins like trash? McColly thinks we should change the way we think about coins.

To state the obvious, coins are worth money. Coinstar converts $3 billion in coins into spendable cash every year, one coin jar at a time. The average jar yields $58 in buying power.

Most of us don’t realize how much our coins are worth. Thus, a trip to a coin-exchange kiosk (or a bank, or credit union) can yield a pleasant surprise.

“People underestimate the value of their jar by about half,” McColly said. “It’s a wonderfully pleasurable experience. People have this sensation of found money.”

Certain groups of Americans – lower-income households, and those over 55 – still use plenty of cash, the Fed found, along with people who prefer to shop in person.

Coins aren't clutter, they're currency

As for the rest of us, McColly thinks it is time for a paradigm shift. Don’t think of your coins as clutter. Think of them as recyclables.

“They’re metal,” he said, in case we needed a reminder. “And they have a long and useful life.”

The Treasury still mints more than 5 billion coins a year, although the figure is dropping, according to the journal CoinNews.

“Those are just natural resources coming out of the Earth,” McColly said: Copper-plated zinc for pennies, copper-nickel alloys for nickels, dimes and quarters.

His point: If Americans got serious about gathering up their idle coins and “recycling” them into the monetary system, the Mint wouldn’t have to make so many new ones.

Granted, McColly has a vested interest. His company collects a small cut of the coins that consumers deposit.

“You can go to your own bank or credit union and not pay any fee,” said Kimberly Palmer, personal finance expert at NerdWallet. Both NerdWallet and Bankrate offer tip sheets on exchanging coins for cash. Most banks will take an account holder's coins for free, Bankrate reports, but not all, and you may need to roll the coins yourself.

“I think that a lot of people probably do have hidden coins stashed around their home, and it can be worth their time to go and collect them,” Palmer said.

McColly notes that Coinstar generally waives its fee if the depositor chooses to trade in coins for a retail gift card, rather than cash.

He is not alone in forecasting a future for the penny, the nickel, and their more profitable kin.

“We’ve been much slower than parts of Europe and Asia to adopt mobile payments and contactless credit cards,” said Ted Rossman, a senior industry analyst at Bankrate.

The pandemic delivered a timely reminder of how much we still rely on cash: Consumers and business owners sat on their coins amid a global shutdown, seeding an actual coin shortage

“It kind of froze the whole system,” Rossman said.

Retiring coins: Where does it end?

While Trump has only instructed the Mint to stop making pennies, some voices have urged America to stop using them.

The Common Cents Act, introduced on April 30 by a bipartisan group of lawmakers, would round cash transactions to the nearest five cents.

“The penny is outdated and inefficient and no longer serves the needs of our economy,” said Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, the New York Democrat.

But the bill could push the nation down a slippery slope.

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

MORGAN STANLEY PREDICTS 10% DROP IN US DOLLAR — SEES BOOST FOR RISK ASSETS AND S&P 500

Morgan Stanley has issued a bold mid-year forecast: the U.S. dollar is headed for a major decline, which could act as a tailwind for equities, crypto, and other risk-on assets.

CIO Mike Wilson: “Dollar to Fall Another 10% Into 2026”

In an interview with Bloomberg Television, Chief Investment Officer Mike Wilson said:

“Our forecast for the dollar… is for another 10% decline, continuing into next year. That’s another reason the S&P 500 will be hard-pressed to correct more than 10%.”

The call is based largely on Morgan Stanley’s projection of 175 basis points in Fed rate cuts over the next year.

📉 If realized, this would deepen pressure on the greenback and stimulate broader asset markets.

Even with Fewer Rate Cuts, Dollar Still Going Down

Wilson emphasized that even if the Fed doesn’t cut rates as aggressively:

“The direction of travel is still south for the dollar… particularly against the yen, euro, and pound — economies with less room to cut in a slowdown.”

This shift could:

• Weaken the dollar globally

• Make U.S. exports more competitive

• Push investors toward commodities, stocks, and crypto

Why This Matters for Investors

A falling U.S. dollar tends to:

• Support higher stock prices (especially in large caps and tech)

• Provide upside to Bitcoin, XRP, and other crypto assets

• Drive flows into emerging markets and commodities

With dollar strength waning, traders and institutions may rotate heavily into risk-on trades to front-run 2026 macro shifts.

Bottom Line

Morgan Stanley’s call is clear: rate cuts are coming, the dollar is weakening, and risk assets are positioned to benefit.

As the greenback loses steam, expect crypto and equities to surge — especially if the Fed confirms the pivot in coming months.

FLORIDA TO SCRAP CAPITAL GAINS TAX ON BITCOIN, XRP, AND STOCKS — A GAME-CHANGER FOR CRYPTO IN AMERICA

In a bold move that could reshape U.S. crypto policy, Florida has introduced legislation to eliminate state capital gains tax on Bitcoin, XRP, and traditional stocks, sending bullish signals across the markets.

State-Level Tax Break Could Supercharge Crypto Adoption

Backed by Governor Ron DeSantis and Florida’s GOP leadership, the bill would:

• Remove capital gains tax at the state level for profits from crypto and stock investments

• Increase investor returns, making Florida more attractive to crypto traders and fintech firms

• Position the state as a potential crypto capital of the U.S.

🔸 Federal capital gains tax still applies — only Congress can change that.

Markets React: BTC and XRP Climb

In the 24 hours following the announcement:

• Bitcoin (BTC) rose 2.4%, trading near $109,835

• XRP jumped 2.2% to $2.34

📊 Growth Trends:

Asset 30-Day 3-Month

BTC +16.55% +19.6%

XRP +5.42% +2.71%

Some analysts predict Bitcoin could hit $135,000 if this momentum continues.

In Sync With Trump’s National Pro-Crypto Push

This legislation mirrors President Trump’s federal crypto agenda:

• Advocates pro-blockchain policies

• Has support across 27 Republican-led states

• Could inspire a wave of similar tax reform bills

Mixed Public Response

Supporters say:

• Could make Florida the #1 crypto-friendly state

• Will attract VCs, builders, and high-net-worth investors

Critics argue:

• Might complicate filings and cause clashes with federal tax rules

• Risks regulatory confusion across state-federal lines

hy It Matters: This Could Spark Nationwide Crypto Tax Reform

If Florida’s bill passes:

• Other GOP-led states may follow suit

• Federal lawmakers may face increased pressure to modernize crypto tax policy

• Could create a more unified, investor-friendly U.S. crypto landscape

Bottom Line

Florida isn’t just tweaking its tax code—it may be igniting the next phase of U.S. crypto regulation. Whether you’re holding BTC, XRP, or just watching the policy tide, this bill deserves your full attention.

2008 on Steroids: Global Financial Reset, Millions of Retirements at Risk

Daniela Cambone:  5-26-2025

"What’s coming up is gonna destroy millions—tens of millions—of retirees’ retirements if they are not careful,” warns Chris Vermeulen, founder and chief investment officer at TheTechnicalTraders.com.

In an interview with Daniela Cambone, he lays out a highly bearish outlook for financial markets, forecasting a severe economic downturn that he believes could rival or surpass the 2008 financial crisis.

“To me, it looks like a stage four, which is a financial reset—kind of like the tech bubble, the 2008 financial crisis."

Vermeulen predicts the S&P 500 could decline by as much as 47–55%, echoing the scale of past collapses. He also sees gold as a critical indicator of systemic risk and growing investor fear.

So What Happens To America’s 114 Billion Pennies Once The US Stops Making Them?

So What Happens To America’s 114 Billion Pennies Once The US Stops Making Them?

Chris Isidore, CNN   Sun, May 25, 2025

The American penny isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.

The US Treasury Department announced Thursday that it plans to start winding down production of the one-cent coin it has been minting for more than 230 years. But the penny will still remain legal tender, and will still be in use at thousands of retailers around the country for sometime to come.

“If we look at the experience in Canada, for the first year after they stopped making pennies, there’s really no change in transactions,” Jeff Lenard, spokesperson for the National Association of Convenience Stores, told CNN. Convenience stores do more cash transactions than any other group, about 32 million a day, or about 20% of the total number of purchases by their customers, Lenard said.

The National Retail Federation, which represents most major US store chains as well as thousands of small retailers, also said it anticipates its members will use pennies even after production stops at some point early next year, although it does anticipate that many will round cash transactions to the nearest nickel once the supply of pennies at banks starts to run short.

“Retailers’ primary goal is serving customers and making this transition as seamless as possible,” said Dylan Jeon, senior director of government relations for NRF.

There are an estimated 114 billion pennies currently in circulation, but they are “severely underutilized” according to the Treasury department. Many are at home in coin jars or junk drawers, or some other forgotten location gathering dust.

The math says that all those pennies could fill a cube roughly 13 stories high. Many people don’t even take them as change, tossing them into the leave-a-penny-take-a-penny dishes at store checkouts.

Lenard said the large number of pennies in circulation means that retailers won’t necessary run out of them for a while. But eventually stores won’t be able to get new rolls of pennies from their banks and will start rounding transactions up or down to the nearest nickel. The decision when to do that will rest with each retailer, not official government policy.

Bessent Sends a Global Warning, US Currency Crash Begins, and Dire Debt Sell-off Ahead

Bessent Sends a Global Warning, US Currency Crash Begins, and Dire Debt Sell-off Ahead

Sean Foo:  5-25-2025

A cloud of uncertainty hangs over the US economy following a controversial interview with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, fueling fears about the future of the dollar and the nation’s financial stability.

 Bessent’s remarks, coupled with the looming possibility of a massive government investment in an ambitious missile defense system, have sent ripples of unease through financial markets.

In a startling revelation during the interview, Secretary Bessent downplayed the potential consequences of a significant USD devaluation. When pressed about the impact on global markets and American citizens, he reportedly stated that such a scenario was “acceptable” and that he held no significant concerns over the potential collapse of US bonds.

These statements have been met with swift condemnation from economists and market analysts. Critics argue that a substantial devaluation of the dollar could trigger runaway inflation, erode purchasing power for American consumers, and destabilize international trade.

The lack of apparent concern regarding US bonds, long considered a safe haven asset, raises serious questions about the Treasury’s long-term economic strategy.

Adding fuel to the fire is the impending debate over funding the “Golden Dome Missile Defense Shield,” a proposed initiative that could cost upwards of a trillion dollars.

The project, characterized by some as a “wild idea,” aims to create a comprehensive, technologically advanced missile defense system covering the entire United States.

While proponents argue that the Golden Dome is crucial for national security in an increasingly volatile world, critics contend that it’s a fiscally irresponsible project that will further burden the already strained US economy.

They question the effectiveness of such a large-scale system and argue that the resources could be better allocated to addressing pressing domestic issues like infrastructure and healthcare.

The coming weeks and months will be critical as Congress debates the Golden Dome proposal and analysts closely scrutinize the Treasury’s monetary policy. The future of the dollar and the stability of the US economy hang in the balance.

It remains to be seen whether Secretary Bessent’s seemingly nonchalant attitude towards devaluation will be vindicated, or whether it will prove to be a costly gamble with the economic wellbeing of the nation. Investors and citizens alike will be watching closely, hoping for clarity and a responsible path forward.

RV Excerpts from the Restored Republic via a GCR: Update as of Mon. 26 May 2025

Compiled Mon. 26 May 2025 12:01 am EST by Judy Byington

Global Currency Reset:

Judy Note: Dates on start of Tier4b (Us, the Internet group) have been very confusing  Fulford maintains that Redemption Centers began processing live appointments on Fri. 23 May, while Nesara Gesara QFS on Telegram say Sat. 14 June through Tues. 17 June was Tier4b and the General Public Rollout of the Global Currency Reset.  

Sun. 25 May 2025 Ben Fulford: Specialized Redemption Centers have shifted from standby to activation mode. A limited number of insiders and military personnel have been called in to redeem Dinar, Dong, and historic bonds. Since early June, centers are staffed 24/7 on rotating shifts. The funds for redemptions are already in place in QFS accounts. According to two sources inside the Treasury as of May 23, 2025, Redemption Centers will begin processing live appointments under full GESARA protocol

Sun. 25 May 2025 BREAKING INTEL: TIER 1–5 STRUCTURE EXPOSED — THE HIDDEN ENGINE BEHIND THE GLOBAL CURRENCY RESET (GCR 2025) …WH Grampa on Telegram

You’ve heard about the Global Currency Reset. But no one told you how it actually works. The truth is layered — structured — and you’re already part of it, whether you realize it or not.

While fiat empires crumble and globalist banks collapse, a new monetary framework is rising — built in encrypted briefings, silent war rooms, and sovereign-aligned networks far outside the public eye. This is the Tiered Redemption System — the skeleton behind the GCR.

It’s not based on age. Not wealth. Not fame. It’s based on awareness. On frequency. On consciousness. This is how it’s structured:

Tier 1 — Central banks, sovereign treasuries, and legacy financial dynasties. IMF. BIS. World Bank. Federal Reserve. . They’re not the enemy — they’re infrastructure holders being forced to flip the switch. Liquidity can’t flow until they trigger the valves.

Tier 2 — Private banks, multinational trusts, religious financial networks. Think UBS, Credit Suisse, Vatican Bank. These are the distributors, not creators. They masked, moved, and monetized stolen assets for decades. Now they’re being forced to redeem — or be dismantled.

Tier 3 — Historical bondholders, royal families, and “whale-class” asset holders. Their holdings date back generations — railroad bonds, stolen gold, ancient trusts. They’ve held it all. Now they’re under military command. Their redemption is underway under sealed oversight.

Tier 4A — Alliance insiders. Military-connected operatives. White Hats embedded in strategic banking, logistics, and ops teams. They’ve already begun the process — not for profit, but for mission execution.

Tier 4B — YOU. The awakened digital soldiers. The citizen researchers. The patriots aligned with truth and sovereignty. You are not last. You are not forgotten. You are the bridge between darkness and mass awakening. Once Tier 3 clears and Tier 4A stabilizes, you go live.

Tier 5 — The unaware public. The masses still asleep. For them, GCR will look like “miraculous policy shifts” or new government programs. But they won’t realize what really happened. Not yet.

This structure is not theoretical — it’s operational. Redemption codes are being issued. Liquidity pathways are mapped.

The GCR is not about money. It’s about energy. Tier placement is not reward or punishment — it’s alignment. Tier 1 built the system. Tier 2 moved it. Tier 3 held the keys. Tier 4 breaks the silence. Tier 5 wakes up last.

You’re not watching a financial event. You’re living through a consciousness-based reallocation of planetary wealth.

Tiers are not status. They are stages. And your time is coming. Prepare for the shift. Stay alert for codes. And never forget — you were never at the bottom. You were The Plan.

Fiduciary Advisor vs. Wealth Manager

Those looking for Wealth Managers may want to consider a Fiduciary Advisor as well. A Wealth Manager and a Fiduciary Advisor are both professionals who provide financial advice and management services, but there are some differences between them. …Dinar Recaps.

1. Scope of Services:  

Wealth Manager: A Wealth Manager typically offers comprehensive financial planning and investment management services. They may assist clients with a wide range of financial needs, including investment planning, retirement planning, tax planning, estate planning, and risk management.

Fiduciary Advisor: A fiduciary advisor is specifically obligated to act in the best interests of their clients at all times. While they may also offer comprehensive financial planning services, their primary focus is on providing advice and recommendations that are solely in the client’s best interest. 

2. Fiduciary Duty:

Wealth Manager: While many wealth managers strive to act in their clients’ best interests, they may not be legally bound to do so in all situations. Some wealth managers may operate under a suitability standard, which requires them to recommend products that are suitable for the client’s financial situation, but not necessarily the best option available.

Fiduciary Advisor: A Fiduciary Advisor is held to a higher standard of care known as the Fiduciary Duty. This means they are legally obligated to always act in the best interests of their clients, putting their clients’ interests ahead of their own and avoiding conflicts of interest. 

3. Compensation Structure:

Wealth Manager: Wealth managers may be compensated through a variety of fee structures, including asset-based fees, hourly fees, or commissions on product sales. Some wealth managers may receive commissions for selling certain financial products, which can create potential conflicts of interest.

Fiduciary Advisor: Fiduciary Advisors often operate on a fee-only basis, meaning they are compensated solely through fees paid by their clients. This fee structure minimizes conflicts of interest, as Fiduciary Advisors do not receive commissions or incentives for recommending specific products. 

4. Regulatory Oversight:

Wealth Manager: Wealth Managers may be subject to regulatory oversight depending on their jurisdiction and the services they offer. However, regulatory requirements may vary, and not all wealth managers may be held to the same standards of conduct.

Fiduciary Advisor: Fiduciary Advisors are typically held to stricter regulatory standards, particularly if they are registered investment advisors (RIAs) in the United States. RIAs are regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) or state securities regulators and are required to adhere to fiduciary standards. 

In summary, while both Wealth Managers and Fiduciary Advisors provide financial advice and management services, Fiduciary Advisors are held to a higher standard of care and are legally obligated to act in their clients’ best interests at all times. Choosing between the two depends on individual preferences, investment needs, and the level of trust and confidence desired in the advisor-client relationship.

Militia Man  2023 Article quote: "...Because the project to delete the zeros still exists [Alaq] says when this is done correctly we can expect Iraq to become a strong dinar that is considered a store of value and perhaps even stronger than the dinar that was before 1980."  That's the expectation of this - before 1980.  That's coming from the Central Bank of Iraq.
