Iraq Economic News and Points To Ponder Wednesday Afternoon 7-30-25

The National Bank Of Iraq Signs A Strategic Agreement With The Ministry Of Finance To Activate The Sovereign Guarantees Program.

Banks  Economy News – Baghdad   The National Bank of Iraq signed a strategic cooperation agreement with the Ministry of Finance aimed at activating the sovereign guarantees program. This qualitative step reflects the Iraqi government's commitment to empowering the banking sector, enhancing its role in supporting the national economy, and stimulating investment in priority projects.

This agreement aims to enable Iraqi banks to contribute to providing long-term credit facilities for national projects, through guarantees provided (in part) by the Iraqi government to foreign international financing institutions. This will help reduce financing risks and encourage the private sector and local and international investors to enter the Iraqi market with greater confidence.

Under the agreement, the National Bank of Iraq will play a pivotal role in facilitating financial relations for projects and assisting in obtaining financing through international financial institutions, in line with its strategic position and active role in supporting productive sectors, particularly industries that receive direct attention from the Iraqi government.

This agreement comes as part of the government's efforts to strengthen public-private partnerships and enable local banks to play a greater role in supporting the national economy, particularly in vital sectors such as industry, energy, and housing.

This agreement represents a pivotal milestone in the bank's journey and embodies its commitment to providing innovative and secure financing solutions that support economic development efforts in Iraq.

This partnership with the Ministry of Finance will open new horizons for the banking sector and enable the National Bank of Iraq to contribute more effectively to financing vital projects Iraq needs.

This step is in line with the Iraqi government's financial and administrative reform plan, which aims to diversify sources of income, boost non-oil revenues, and enable the banking sector to play a greater role in supporting sustainable development and achieving the national economic vision.

The National Bank of Iraq affirms its commitment to continuing to work with relevant government agencies to implement innovative financing programs that contribute to enabling major national projects, particularly in the fields of industry, energy, and infrastructure.

The bank also seeks to expand its regional and international partnerships to provide financing tools that align with development requirements and support the government's efforts to achieve comprehensive and sustainable economic stability.   342 views  https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=58100

Oil Prices Rise, Brent Exceeds $72 A Barrel

Energy   Oil prices rose slightly on Wednesday, as investors focused on developments in US President Donald Trump's deadline to end the war in Ukraine and his threat to impose tariffs on countries that trade in Russian oil.

Brent crude futures, the most active, rose 40 cents, or about 0.6%, to $72.09 a barrel.

US West Texas Intermediate crude rose 76 cents to $69.97 a barrel, as investors shrugged off mixed US data on oil and fuel inventories.  September Brent futures rise ahead of trading close.

September Brent crude, which expires Wednesday, rose 37 cents to $72.88.
Both contracts had fallen about 1% earlier in the session.

Trump said on Tuesday that he would begin imposing measures on Russia, including secondary tariffs of 100% on its trading partners, if it did not make progress in ending the war within 10 to 12 days, 50 days earlier than previously scheduled.

Trump also imposed a 25% tariff on goods imported from India starting August 1, along with unspecified sanctions related to arms and oil purchases from Russia, potentially straining relations with the world's most populous democracy.

The United States also warned China, the largest buyer of Russian oil, that it could face hefty tariffs if it continues to purchase this oil.  US inventory data reveals unexpected increases.

The US Energy Information Administration announced that US crude inventories rose by 7.7 million barrels, compared to analysts' expectations in a Reuters poll for a decrease of 1.3 million barrels.

US gasoline inventories fell by 2.7 million barrels, compared to expectations for a smaller decrease of 0.6 million barrels.

Distillate inventories, which include diesel and heating oil, rose by 3.6 million barrels, exceeding expectations for a gain of only 0.3 million barrels, according to the EIA data. 56 views  2025/07/30 - https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=58141

Project “Hijack the Fed” is now in full swing [Podcast]

Project “Hijack the Fed” is now in full swing [Podcast]

Notes From Te Field By James Hickman (Simon Black)  July 30, 2025

To the surprise of absolutely no one today, the Federal Reserve’s Open Market Committee chose to do nothing at the close of its two-day meeting.

The White House is furious about the decision; the President believes that the Fed should be slashing rates, and that the current “high” rate of interest is costing the US government hundreds of billions of dollars each year in excess interest.

(I put “high” in quotes because interest rates are still well below historic averages...)

Now, I am no fan of the Fed. Quite the opposite— the organization is a total failure.

Just consider that section 2A of the Federal Reserve Act (passed in 1913) states that the Fed is supposed to maintain a stable currency. Yet the US dollar has lost 97% of its purchasing power under the Fed’s stewardship over the past 112 years.

Personally I think it’s difficult to find another organization that has been so terrible at its core mission for so long.

Yet even with that scathing criticism in mind, it’s still not the Fed’s job to bail out the US government’s finances.

If Congress and the White House want to pay a lower interest rate on the national debt, then they can make the hard decisions to cut spending, balance the budget, and attract foreign investment by acting like responsible adults.

Unfortunately none of that seems to be in the cards.

So instead there seems to be a clear plan being hatched: Project “Hijack the Fed”.

Let’s start from the basics:

In order to fund its roughly $2 trillion annual budget deficit, the US government has to sell debt (bonds) to investors to plug its funding gap. And this responsibility falls to the Treasury Department.

Ordinarily, Treasury would sell a mix of US government bonds, ranging from ultra-short-term 28-day T-bills, to very long-term 30-year bonds.

Lately, however, the Treasury Department has been focused on selling mostly short-term bonds... simply because those rates are lower. The yield on a 12-month T-bill, for example, is just 3.86%, whereas the yield on 10-year Treasury is almost 5%, so it’s a difference of roughly 1%.

In some ways it’s sensible to take the lower rate. But it’s a risky strategy.

If interest rates suddenly rise, then the US government could wind up paying even MORE interest in the next few years, just to save 1% today.

So clearly the Treasury Department must have some confidence that rates won’t be going higher... and will probably be headed lower.

Last month Secretary Bessent even said this out loud: “What I’m going to do is, I’m going to go very short-term. . . Wait until this guy [Fed Chairman Jerome Powell] gets out, get the rates way down, and then go long-term.”

In other words, he’s going to keep selling the lower-interest short-term debt. Then, once Jerome Powell’s term as Fed Chairman ends next year, the Treasury Secretary thinks that HE will be able to “get the rates way down”, at which point he’ll start selling long-term debt to lock in lower rates.

This is a stunning admission that the Treasury Secretary (and by extension the White House) think that they will be able to steer interest rates much lower through their new Fed pick next year.

Coincidentally, Treasury Secretary Bessent also happens to be on Donald Trump’s shortlist to be the next Fed Chairman.

So let’s skip over the obvious legal and reputational issues involved in such a move.

The bigger problem is that there’s only one way for the Fed— even if Secretary Bessent becomes Chairman— to “get the rates way down”... and that is by expanding the money supply, i.e. what we often refer to as printing money.

And just as we saw during the pandemic when the Fed printed $5 trillion, large-scale money printing can easily lead to some nasty inflation.

Why it matters:

We’ve been talking about the next inflation cycle for a while, explaining why 2033 is the key date to keep in mind; this is when Social Security’s major trust fund will run out of money, prompting the Fed to print trillions of dollars and trigger inflation.

But given the Treasury Department and White House’s plan to hijack the Fed, it’s possible that the next inflation cycle could start up again as early as next year. 

This isn’t a foregone conclusion. But it makes sense to pay close attention to what they’re doing, because it’s starting to look pretty obvious that they plan to print a lot of money starting next summer.

Today’s podcast:

I want to stress that I’m not predicting some imminent doom. The end of the world is not upon us. There is no reason for rational people to panic.

But it is becoming increasingly obvious where this trend will lead. The Treasury Secretary of the United States of America is flat-out saying that he’s going to “get the rates way down” as early as next summer. And it would be foolish to ignore the inflationary consequences of his plan. 

We discuss all of this in depth in today’s podcast episode, including:

• Will the next inflation cycle mean painfully higher food and fuel prices, or perhaps just an inflated stock and real estate market?
  

• Why there’s a straight line linking the post-GFC (2010-2016) stock market bubble and ‘asset price inflation’, to the rise of Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders.
  

• We explain that, while the Fed has a lot of influence over short-term interest rates, they can’t control long-term rates (including mortgage rates) without printing tons of money. And, yes, that means inflation.
  

• How the next phase of money printing could make the 2020–2021 pandemic inflation look tame by comparison; it’s all about the sheer volume of money at stake, i.e. $5 trillion versus potentially $20+ trillion.
  

• Why the US could hit a fiscal wall sooner than anyone thinks, where 100% of tax revenue is consumed JUST by debt interest, Social Security, and Medicare.
  

• We also talk about sensible ways to position yourself for inflation in ways that make sense regardless of what happens (or doesn’t happen) next.

Gargantuan Bubbles Everywhere you Look, 50%+ Crash to Wipe out Market

Gargantuan Bubbles Everywhere you Look, 50%+ Crash to Wipe out Market

VRIC Media:  7-30-2025

In a recent illuminating panel discussion hosted by VRIC Media, financial titans Todd Horwitz of Bubba Trading and Michael Pento of Pento Portfolio Strategies delivered a stark warning about the state of the US and global economy.

Their message was clear: despite record-high market indicators, an underlying fragility points to significant systemic risks, with dire implications for investors.

Horwitz and Pento expressed profound concern over what they identify as unsustainable bubbles inflating across equities, real estate, and credit markets.

 While mainstream headlines trumpet new market highs, the experts highlighted disturbing indicators like persistently low trading volumes and valuations reaching historic extremes, including all-time high Shiller PE ratios and negative risk premiums.

These signs, they cautioned, bear an uneasy resemblance to the precursors of previous market crashes, painting a picture of an underlying fragility masked by seemingly robust figures. They foresee an eventual recession and credit crisis as the inevitable consequence of these market distortions.

Amidst this unsettling landscape, the panelists discussed a potential strategic pivot from overvalued tech stocks towards hard assets. Both experts emphatically favor precious metals – particularly gold and platinum – as essential safe havens.

They foresee these assets not only outperforming the broader market but also serving as crucial hedges against rising inflation, especially with anticipated, and in their view, aggressively dangerous, Federal Reserve interest rate cuts. Such cuts in an already inflationary environment, they argued, would likely ignite even higher inflation, further fueling precious metals rallies.

The discussion also cast a critical eye on the Federal Reserve’s role. Horwitz and Pento voiced strong calls for auditing the Fed to enhance transparency and accountability, criticizing its artificial control over interest rates, which they believe distorts free market dynamics. They advocated for a return to a true, free-market interest rate system, possibly linked to gold supply, arguing it would be a vital safeguard against reckless monetary expansion and inflationary pressures.

Shifting to broader economic and geopolitical factors, the experts expressed skepticism regarding the effectiveness of current tariff policies. They viewed such threats as more political posturing than realistic economic strategy, especially given global wage disparities and their limited ability to genuinely revive US manufacturing.

 The conversation also touched upon the potential of other commodities like uranium and energy, highlighting nuclear power’s pivotal role in achieving energy independence and environmental sustainability.

In their comprehensive and cautionary concluding remarks, Horwitz and Pento urged investors to exercise extreme prudence. Their core advice centered on the importance of physical ownership of precious metals – particularly gold and platinum – as a vital protective measure against the systemic risks they perceive.

The Federal Reserve’s future policies remain a central wildcard, with calls for greater transparency and a return to market-based interest rates seen as crucial for restoring genuine economic stability.

As market highs mask underlying fragility and geopolitical tensions add complexity, the panel’s overarching message was clear: vigilance, diversification, and a deep understanding of macroeconomic imbalances are paramount for navigating the challenging economic landscape ahead.

The cracks in the system are widening and the shift toward hyperinflation is already in motion.

"They're Going To Destroy The Dollar" | Andy Schectman

Liberty and Finance:  7-28-2025

Andy Schectman discusses recent global financial developments, focusing on the growing shift away from the U.S. dollar.

 He highlights the operational status of the Shanghai Gold Exchange's international platform, which now allows direct gold-for-yuan settlements—bypassing the need for dollar conversion.

 He explains how Chinese institutions, including insurance companies, are increasing gold allocations, with projections that could soon consume the world’s entire annual gold supply.

Schectman details the expansion of BRICS Pay and BRICS Bridge, emphasizing their integration into global trade infrastructure and compliance with AML, KYC, and KYT standards.

 He warns of an intentional destruction of the dollar through inflation, predicting a future where gold is revalued and pegged to long-term U.S. debt to restore trust and stability.

Bruce’s Big Call Dinar Intel Tuesday Night 7-29-25

Bruce’s Big Call Dinar Intel Tuesday Night 7-29-25  

Transcribed By WiserNow Emailed To Recaps

Welcome everybody  to the big call tonight. It is Tuesday, July 29 and you're listening to the big call. Appreciate everybody tuning in, coming in. Yet, once again, we hope to put some good information out for you tonight. I look forward to hearing from Bob and from hearing from Sue and everything that comes with our call.

Now, what we're hearing about, where we are is basically this, we thought we could be notified as early as today or tomorrow, and what we're getting from one of the redemption center leaders that we talked to earlier today was that the email that was the email thst was  received this morning said that we should receive 800 numbers anytime at 10am tomorrow.

We thought they might be today, but it looks like there's nothing else finishes. If everything holds up, we should have notifications from now anytime after 10. Could be 10 to noon, could be 10 -  two  or so at this point, that's the best and only information  we’re getting, because a lot of these guys sign new NDAs, and it's really tough to find out where exactly we are in the process,

But let's say that we do get notified between 10 and noon tomorrow, will it be between 10 and noon and time zone? I think that's possible that 10 o'clock Eastern and 10 o'clock Central. In other words, it would be stacked and so on. Don't that happens at that time, something after 10 tomorrow, is it  possible, we actually start exchanges on Wednesday afternoon.

We've been told numerous times that once we set our appointment, or once we get our number. Let's say we call. We get the caller on the phone that we could set up an appointment for as little as three hours after so if we had a number of 10:30, or 11, let's say we could theoretically exchange the three or four on Wednesday, if they decide that's what we're to do.

So I'm hoping that that's in play  if it's not in play, and we get to know sometime tomorrow afternoon, and it ends up being an afternoon, maybe our start for exchanges would be on Thursday, and that's very possible. Thursday is the 31st two days from now, and our mindset is for us to get in there as soon as possible.

We have numbers to get in. Some of us could get in, let's say maybe tomorrow afternoon, and then I and then for Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, all the way through, enough to have everything complete on 15 centers would be by then, a lot of them would be.

Some areas are going to be open for eight or nine days. First, days in some areas of the country, other areas like places like Miami, Canada, maybe Orlando may have 24 hours a day for redemption centers

They've got as many people as I think they do that are zim holders and other they could go 24/7 in certain City and St Pete area, I think also Miami, Fort Lauderdale, certainly Orlando and maybe even Jacksonville. So we'll see what happens.

There'll be like a redemption center all over the place, and we'll get started by using the toll free number to call. Now let me stop here one step. There are certain individuals that had put out information saying that the banks will be able to give you 10 dollars on the dinar. Well, that's very possible, but would you like to be able to get nine times that at the redemption center with the contract rate?

That's why I don't talk about going to the banks. I talk about going to the redemption centers, because they're going to stick with everything you need. You're going to get redemption center, especially if you're a zim holder, okay, you're going to verify with the delarue machine again, all your currency stuff, you'll have a total you'll have a quantum card to access your quantum accounts.

We'll set that up, and I've talked to you about that before, but you'll have a username and password. They'll have a biometric finger or thumbprint. Okay, that will be stored in cards. You'll have a five digit PIN code, which you'll come up with. You'll have a new email and password for a new email.

All those things are entered to where you use those to get into your quantum account. And your quantum account is where all the money goes eventually from your exchange. And your R & R should be in that account. So you're seeing what that is, before they put the value of your currencies and Zim in there. See what your RNR month was or will or will be.

So write that down separately, because then you're going to throw everything else on top of it, and it'll be absorbed by all the funds from your current fees and zoom so add that, and then you're going to have everything you'll have your account aside.

Hopefully that for us, if you do, you can put a master account in the name of your trust. If not, you can get your trust made in the next weeks, get it done, and then they'll help you find to assign an attorney that can do that, or somebody at the bank, they can do that, unless you have your own trust and free your own estate planning attorney. Okay, and you're good to go.

All right, there's fine, but set up your digital account, your master account day one of the exchange, and then your sub accounts that I'm using for the various four projects. Set those up a day or two later. Not rush, but you want to get those going, and then you'll have your quantum card, your credit debit card, at least for your master account.

You've got currency, which is the new USTN money, if you can pick up some of that as part of your exchange. And then you can also get a coupon free to you, or just basically a sat phone telephone that operates off the StarLink system. Now you're not going to get thatfrom the bank.

You're not going to get a contract rate on the dinar at the bank, and you can’t exchange the zim  at the bank, at least not yet.

The point is, the banks are fine, but you're not going to get the steel okay. So we're going to go set up, get the phone number, get the 800 number, hopefully in the email tomorrow, a little time after 10, and hopefully that information holds up and we can get in and exchange at least starting Thursday through first of July, if not. Let's talk. I get really antsy when we toward the end of the month.

You guys told you before, for a month now, but I get squirrely because I'm thinking, are they gonna push us to the first of August, which is Friday? Are they gonna push us to there? We know our Doge payments are supposed to come out August, 1, second, third.

If you're on Social Security for between 62, and 72 I know roughly the announcement, yet it's pretty overwhelming. I direct deposit, by the way, to your Social Security bank account, separate from Social Security, but goes into the same account, it's going to be wild, and then your Doge should be  we find out when we go in for our exchange, we should see our I don't mean our DOGE, I mean our RNR, our restitution and reconciliation allowance. R&R is that is supposed to be there when we get into Exchange. Social Security increases - be in the month of August,

We've had to push that push, that push that just like the RV every month, but we're understanding the bond holders are receiving their funds into their accounts.

The pay masters are moving those into their accounts, and they should be getting an email like today or tomorrow saying that they have money in their accounts, some of them can see that money when they enter the username password into their account website, and if and then they'll be getting another email, probably tomorrow, which will show them when They can have access to their funds.

That's the bottom line. When do they get to access their accounts? Same thing for us, and I doubt it'll be before we exchange. We exchange on Thursday. They'll probably get it on Thursday. If we exchange starting tomorrow afternoon, let's say hopefully, then they would probably get access to it around the same time.

So have a lot of exchanges and Zim redemption done by the middle of August, but there will probably be some redemption centers that will remain open based on demand, based on whether there are enough currency holders, and then the public will go, we have heard dates on the public starting as early as the 4th August, which is Monday, this coming Monday. So it's conceivable the public could start that soon.

But I don’t know if they are going to give us a little more time before the public starts - When I say Public -  these are people have no clue about the big call or any of the other calls. Have no clue about the 800 number. They might find out about it from friends that they have, but they don't have any clue except sooner or later, they'll pull, pull a couple of 25k notes out of sock drawer and go to their bank, maybe they will get their  10 bucks, they're not going to get nine times that at the redemption center.

It's up to them, is it really? I hope everybody out there, even the quote, unquote public in tier five, there is, I think, you know, as listened to, or know some people that has heard the big call, and they know that we're going to have a toll free number on our website when it comes out, and also send out an email to everybody registered on big call. Universe,

We'll send an email out that'll have the 800 number on it, and that's the way to kind of keep you guys knowing that you've got the number to call. Now, many you guys are going to get the email. Many, many, many, many of you will get it from Wells Fargo, and you won't even need to look at they call universe.com for the number, because you'll have it.

You'll have the instructions on when to call, how to call, or whatever it'll be with the call centers, call centers connected to the redemption center if you want to get connected to a live person at the redemption center by whatever zip code you've entered. Okay, that's really good.

That's basically what I wanted to tell you guys tonight I see Sue, can you think of anything I forgot or need to? Need to readdress, good. Bruce, okay. Great job. Thank you, Sue. Appreciate that.

Okay, yeah, so that's what, that's what I was. That's all I really wanted for tonight. Okay, we have a call. Okay, well, I'm hoping our Thursday call will be a celebration. Call you guys. I'm just we got, as I'd like it today.

Now, in terms of more verifications, it's so hard watch after I get I'll get something later tonight, hopefully confirms notifications will fill out to some town after 10am and I'm going to say it might be 10am in every time zone. Wow. That's great. Thanks.

I gave them the number and how to get to the site. Everybody is good on that, and that's what I'd like to say for tonight on Intel, let's keep a close eye. let's pray the call out, and then we'll turn off the recording.

Listen, you guys attention to your emails tomorrow. Let's see if this intel holds up. Let's see if we get our toll free numbers. And then, of course, Thursday, we would have a celebration, call. All right. Thanks, everybody. Have a blessed night and God bless you.

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

Crypto Policy Crossroads: Senate Pushes Digital Asset Frameworks for Markets and Mortgages
Digital regulation gains momentum as lawmakers weigh oversight frameworks and new use cases

Senate Committee Unveils Digital Asset Regulation Framework

In a pivotal move for U.S. digital asset oversight, the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee has released a Discussion Draft aimed at formally regulating the crypto ecosystem. The proposal introduces foundational definitions, seeks jurisdictional clarity between federal agencies, and proposes comprehensive guardrails for stablecoins and digital asset intermediaries.

This marks a shift from fragmented enforcement to a structured legislative path, with implications for how exchanges, custodians, and token issuers will operate in the years ahead.

Key Elements of the Draft Legislation

• Defined Classifications of Digital Assets:
  The bill distinguishes between payment stablecoins, digital commodities, and securities, creating tailored compliance expectations for each.

• Clarifying SEC vs. CFTC Authority:
  Digital commodities would fall under CFTC jurisdiction, while the SEC would retain authority over assets resembling investment contracts, especially those with profit expectations tied to a third party’s efforts.

• Stablecoin Oversight and Reserve Requirements:
  Issuers would face federal registration and strict prudential standards, including full reserves in eligible assets, regular audits, and anti-money laundering (AML) protocols—drawing parallels with the Lummis-Gillibrand Payment Stablecoin Act.

• Consumer Disclosures:
  Retail-facing platforms would be required to deliver a standardized “digital asset disclosure form,” mirroring mutual fund prospectuses to inform users about risks, fees, and legal standing.

• Custody and Commingling Protections:
  Intermediaries would be barred from mixing customer funds with corporate assets, with enhanced custody and recordkeeping practices designed to avoid failures akin to FTX.

Reactions and Outlook

The industry has responded with cautious optimism, welcoming the move toward regulatory clarity. However, concerns remain over the breadth of federal reach, especially as it pertains to software developers and decentralized protocols.

Regulatory agencies are divided. While the CFTC supports expanded authority over digital commodity markets, the SEC continues to assert a broad view of its existing jurisdiction.

Although still in discussion phase, the draft opens the door for bipartisan negotiations, and could intersect with parallel bills such as the GENIUS Act and the CLARITY Act, both of which aim to modernize digital asset laws.

Crypto Assets in Homeownership? Lummis Targets Mortgages Next

In a surprising intersection of crypto and housing finance, Senator Cynthia Lummis (R-WY) has introduced the 21st Century Mortgage Act, a bill that would allow cryptocurrencies to be considered as assets during mortgage evaluations.

The legislation would codify a June 2025 directive from the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), which instructs government-backed mortgage purchasers like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to explore incorporating digital assets in loan risk assessments.

“This legislation embraces an innovative path to wealth-building, keeping in mind the growing number of young Americans who possess digital assets,” said Senator Lummis.

A Generational Wealth Tool – Or a Risk Factor?

The proposal comes amid generational shifts in asset ownership. According to U.S. Census data, homeownership among Americans under 35 sits at just 36% as of Q1 2025—well below historical averages.

The bill would allow crypto-holding borrowers to leverage their digital wealth without converting to fiat, offering a new route to homeownership. However, Senate Democrats have raised concerns, citing crypto's volatility and liquidity risks that may complicate borrower stability.

In a July 24 letter, several lawmakers urged FHFA Director William Pulte to fully examine the systemic implications of such a move.

Momentum Builds Across Chambers

The 21st Century Mortgage Act is one of several crypto bills expected to be discussed after the Senate’s August recess. Others include:

• A market structure bill that defines how crypto assets are traded and regulated.

• A House-passed bill barring the Federal Reserve from launching a central bank digital currency (CBDC).

• A House companion bill, the American Homeowner Crypto Modernization Act, introduced by Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC), which also mandates that mortgage lenders consider digital asset balances held on registered exchanges.

Globally, similar initiatives are taking shape. Australia-based Block Earner recently announced Bitcoin-backed mortgage offerings, following a court ruling that its crypto lending services did not qualify as financial products under Australian law.

Conclusion: Crypto Enters the Regulatory and Housing Mainstream

From stablecoin regulation to mortgage underwriting, digital assets are entering formal policy discussions across U.S. institutions. The Senate’s regulatory proposals reflect a maturing market landscape—one that increasingly demands legal clarity, consumer protection, and financial integration.

While significant hurdles remain, these legislative developments suggest that digital assets are no longer peripheral. They are becoming part of the financial system’s foundation—not just as speculative investments, but as tools for access, collateralization, and wealth-building.

White House Readies Crypto ‘Regulatory Bible’ Amid Push for Strategic Bitcoin Reserve
New report expected to define U.S. digital asset rules for years to come

The White House is preparing to release a sweeping report this week that industry leaders have dubbed a “regulatory Bible”—a document expected to shape U.S. crypto policy and rulemaking for the foreseeable future.

The report stems from a January 2025 executive order by President Donald Trump establishing the President’s Working Group on Digital Asset Markets, tasked with delivering a detailed roadmap on how federal agencies should approach the evolving digital asset economy. The working group includes Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, and SEC Chair Paul Atkins, among others.

While the contents of the report have not been officially released, early insights suggest it will influence every major regulatory decision over the next three and a half years.

“This will dictate every rulemaking or guidance document that comes out,” said Cody Carbone, CEO of The Digital Chamber, in an interview with The Block. “I do think it is a big deal.”

Legislative Context: A Convergence of Bills and Executive Strategy

The timing of the report coincides with a flurry of congressional activity. In mid-July, the House passed both a stablecoin oversight bill and broader digital asset market regulation, sending them to the president’s desk or over to the Senate for reconciliation.

Senate Republicans have targeted September 30 as a date to vote on a companion digital asset bill. The White House report is expected to fill critical regulatory gaps, guiding both federal agencies and lawmakers as they refine legislative proposals like the GENIUS Act, the CLARITY Act, and emerging digital payment infrastructure bills.

Carbone noted that the report may also revisit or repeal prior agency guidance, helping to standardize how platforms, issuers, and consumers engage with digital assets.

Bitcoin Reserve Still Uncertain, But a Priority

One of the more ambitious proposals under discussion is the creation of a U.S. strategic bitcoin reserve—a concept floated by President Trump in a March 2025 executive order. That order tasked key administration officials with exploring budget-neutral strategies to acquire and manage a digital asset stockpile, including bitcoin, without adding cost to taxpayers.

However, sources indicate the upcoming report does not yet include language on the bitcoin reserve, although that could change prior to publication.

“Nothing is set in stone,” Carbone said. “But I’m hoping the report will shed light on how the administration plans to acquire bitcoin and what a stockpile would include.”

Industry Expectations: Tax Policy and Tokenized Securities in Focus

Alongside regulatory clarity, tax treatment of digital assets ranks among the industry’s top priorities.

The Digital Chamber submitted a letter to Bo Hines, Executive Director of the Presidential Council of Advisers for Digital Assets, emphasizing key industry needs:

• Clear and consistent tax guidelines for digital asset transactions and holdings.

• A legal framework for tokenized securities and digital commodities.

• Harmonized federal oversight across agencies, avoiding duplicative compliance burdens.

“Tax clarity is number one,” Carbone said. “That needs to be one of the foundational portions of this report and where Washington leans in.”

A Pivotal Moment for U.S. Crypto Policy

Industry leaders are treating the forthcoming release as a watershed moment in U.S. digital asset policy.

“We look forward to the release tomorrow... a significant milestone following this year’s executive order on digital assets,” said Summer Mersinger, CEO of the Blockchain Association.

“While most of the actions have been agency or Congress driven, the White House’s prioritization of crypto has been evident,” added Ron Hammond, head of policy and advocacy at Wintermute.

A briefing is scheduled for 2:30 p.m. Wednesday, involving both government officials and select industry stakeholders. It remains unclear whether the full report will be released before or after the session.

If fully realized, the report could define a national crypto strategy—from regulatory harmonization to strategic asset acquisition, tax reform, and digital infrastructure development. As the federal government accelerates its crypto policymaking, the industry is now positioned at a critical juncture between legitimacy and liability, growth and governance.

BlackRock Endorses Stablecoins as Key to Strengthening U.S. Dollar Dominance
GENIUS Act Seen as Dual Catalyst for U.S. Treasury Demand and Global Dollar Supremacy

BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager with over $12.5 trillion in AUM, has added its voice to a growing chorus of analysts and policymakers suggesting that stablecoins could significantly enhance the U.S. dollar’s dominance in a rapidly digitizing global economy.

In a recent weekly commentary, BlackRock strategists praised the newly established U.S. stablecoin regulatory framework as a "step in the right direction" for the dollar. Their position reinforces the narrative that tokenized versions of the U.S. dollar, under proper regulation, could extend the reach of America’s fiat currency into new international use cases—including on-chain institutional settlement.

“Tokenized forms of the U.S. dollar will bolster its dominance, especially as institutional transactions move on-chain,” BlackRock noted.
“Stablecoins are part of the future of finance.”

GENIUS Act Ushers in First-Ever Federal Crypto Framework

The commentary follows passage of the GENIUS Stablecoin Act, the first federal crypto bill to be signed into law in the United States. The bipartisan legislation provides a regulatory blueprint for stablecoin issuers and outlines strict reserve requirements intended to strengthen market confidence and tie stablecoins directly to U.S. financial infrastructure.

BlackRock analysts highlighted that the law’s mandate for stablecoin issuers to hold reserves in U.S. Treasuries, money market funds, and repurchase agreements will generate a dual benefit:

• Boost demand for short-term U.S. debt instruments, and

• Enhance the credibility and attractiveness of stablecoins in both domestic and international markets.

From Under $50B to $273B: Stablecoins Enter Institutional Era

The stablecoin market has expanded from under $50 billion in 2021 to $273 billion as of July 2025, with rapid institutional integration now underway. The two largest stablecoin issuers—Tether and Circle—currently hold a combined $120 billion in U.S. Treasury bills, already representing 2% of the $6 trillion Treasury market.

As stablecoins gain traction across emerging markets, cross-border payments, and decentralized finance, BlackRock expects their share of Treasury demand to grow significantly, potentially reshaping liquidity flows in short-term government securities.

Dollar’s Digital Edge: First-Mover Advantage in Global Payments

While the U.S. dollar already dominates global trade, the rise of Bitcoin and other non-sovereign digital assets poses new challenges to fiat relevance. Stablecoins, especially those pegged to the U.S. dollar, offer a strategic counterbalance—allowing the greenback to maintain its primacy within blockchain-based financial systems.

“Stablecoins expose the dollar to entirely new digital use cases,” BlackRock stated, especially in jurisdictions where local currencies are unstable or access to U.S. dollars is restricted.

However, the firm cautioned that a prohibition on interest-bearing stablecoins—included in the GENIUS Act—could limit their appeal in certain major markets, particularly those where competitive yield is essential for adoption.

Bitcoin's Parallel Role: Risk, Return, and Digital Hedging

In the same analysis, BlackRock acknowledged that Bitcoin will also play a crucial role in the digital financial future—but as a risk asset rather than a stable store of value. While the firm has promoted BTC through its iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBTC) and other financial instruments, BlackRock continues to position Bitcoin as complementary to stablecoins, not a replacement for fiat.

The firm’s growing footprint in both tokenized assets and digital infrastructure aligns with its broader push to modernize capital markets through blockchain rails, tokenized securities, and programmable money.

Conclusion: GENIUS Act as a Catalyst for U.S. Financial Dominance

BlackRock’s analysis underscores a broader reality taking shape: stablecoins, when regulated effectively, are not threats to sovereign money—but vehicles for extending its reach. The GENIUS Act represents not only a breakthrough in digital asset policy, but also a strategic maneuver in currency diplomacy, ensuring the U.S. dollar remains embedded in the next generation of global finance.

As demand for digitally native, regulated, dollar-backed assets rises, the GENIUS framework—and the market it enables—could redefine the contours of both monetary power and international trade.

The $1 Quadrillion Time Bomb, Dollar Endgame, and Post-Collapse Hope

The $1 Quadrillion Time Bomb, Dollar Endgame, and Post-Collapse Hope

Liberty and Finance:  7-29-2025

In a recent interview with Liberty and Finance, financial analyst Phil Low explains that the derivatives complex, a financial instrument worth over a quadrillion dollars, sits atop the global financial system as the peak of Exter’s inverted pyramid.

This complex, often hidden from public view and off the books of financial institutions, represents a staggering amount of off-balance-sheet financial bets that threaten to bring down the entire system if they begin to unravel.

Derivatives, such as options, futures, and swaps, are financial instruments that derive their value from an underlying asset or security, such as stocks, bonds, or commodities.

While these instruments can be used to hedge risk and manage exposure, their complexity and the potential for misuse have led to concerns about their impact on the stability of the global financial system.

The derivatives market’s rapid growth is not a failure of capitalism, as some might argue, but rather a distortion caused by central banks enabling infinite credit expansion without market discipline. Central banks, particularly the U.S. Federal Reserve, have pursued policies of ultra-low interest rates and quantitative easing, which have fueled asset bubbles and encouraged excessive risk-taking by financial institutions. This has led to a massive buildup of leverage and speculative bets in the derivatives market.

If the derivatives market were to begin unraveling, through margin calls or a refusal to extend credit, it could instantly freeze the financial system. In such a scenario, the Federal Reserve would be forced to print trillions of dollars overnight just to keep the system afloat. This has led some to question the sustainability of the current system, which relies on constant intervention by central banks to prevent collapse.

In a true free market, institutions would bear the consequences of their risk-taking, but under the current system, the losses are socialized while the profits remain private.

Unless we restore sound money and allow markets to self-correct, this vast structure of speculative leverage teeters ever closer to collapse.

To prevent a potential catastrophe, it is crucial to address the root causes of the problem, including excessive leverage, moral hazard, and the distorting effects of central bank policies. This may require a fundamental rethinking of the role of central banks in the global economy and a return to sound money principles that prioritize market discipline and stability over short-term gains.

In conclusion, the derivatives complex represents a quadrillion-dollar time bomb that threatens to bring down the global financial system.

 To prevent a potential collapse, we must address the underlying causes of the problem and restore sound money principles that prioritize market discipline and stability over short-term gains.

Member: Good Morning-  Someone make a phone call, I’m ready for this to pop!

Member: RV there yet???????

MZ: Starting with Iraqi news:  “Al-Harki: the oil agreement between Baghdad and Erbil is a step towards the approval of the Oil and Gas Law” We have been told over and over again that the oil and gas law is the key. We have a clear steady step in that direction.

MZ: Many are thinking that this agreement should give us the Oil and Gas Law very quickly.

MZ: “Central Bank of Iraq: Decline in public expenditure and stability of domestic debt” Think of this as their version of “DOGE”  They have started electronic payments so salaries go out digitally. No more stealing. They have managed to cut 10% by cleaning things up and getting rid of the grift.

Member: no more 3 payments to the same person with different names

MZ: “Minister of Planning announces a reduction in the poverty rate to 10.8 during 2024” They have come a long way over the last few years. They are better than the US who has 11.1% poverty.

Member: Mark, who would have ever dreamed that Iraq would be our example??

Member: Yes, Iraq out performs the US and many other countries with regard to inflation, poverty, debt, and all markets per capital, and yet we have no control over them, revaluing their currency?

Member: Get this RV going Iraq...!!!

MZ: This is interesting. “The clash between fiscal and economic policy”  Video …..They are talking about Trump , Powel and the Federal Reserve and the US Treasury. The suspicions that they are domesticating the Federal Reserve and they are openly discussing putting the oversight directly under the US Treasury. This means they could audit it and take a look at it. This is what the Trump Administration is pushing for the Federal Reserve. It is time to audit the Fed.

MZ: This economist is talking about the “Quiet Takeover” of the Federal Reserve by the Trump Adminsitration and the US Treasury. Moving power back to the US Treasury where it constitutionally belongs.  

MZ: https://vod.foxbusiness.com/media/v1/pmp4/static/clear/854081161001/9ec59eff-6c3e-44bd-a2ab-c86bca476711/636a930c-9180-4a92-bcb9-3503e04a336b/main.mp4

Member:  I listened to the clip It was exciting hinting at more control to Treasury

Member: What will they do with the FED bldg after the FED is gone ?

Member: Federal Reserve Act was passed on Christmas break after most of Congress had left DC .. It would have never become law otherwise .. more political shenanigans ...

Member: The Tsunami is here, the "financial tsunami"....the comms are off the charts right down to Aug 1st

Member: IMO Gold backed and commodity asset backed is the only way really to get us out of this mess

Member: I just want a large enough announcement to unstuck us

MZ: Unfortunately I do not have a bond update for you….but there is still huge expectations …just no news. Maybe I will have more news by tonight. I did get an update from a group contact that he was told to travel. He just landed out west yesterday evening.

Member: Maybe no news is good news?

Member: Trump just slapped a 25% tariff on India, hopefully that'll put us up to 750 billion to get rid of taxes

Member: I'd be happy if just the IRS went away if the rv still has a long way to go

Member: Anyone ready to go on an RV trip??

Member: Thanks Mark, Mods and Andy…..Hope everyone has a great day.

RV Excerpts from the Restored Republic via a GCR: Update as of Wed. 30 July 2025

Compiled Wed. 30 July 2025 12:01 am EST by Judy Byington

Tues. 29 July 2025 Wolverine: I can only say certain things as most is confidential. All my sources are not talking as they might be under NDA. What we know is that payment will start this week. There were certain delays (not surprised) but nothing will stop this as any day we will be celebrating. Please have faith …..especially the people that are suffering economically and health wise. God bless. Wolverine

Tues. 29 July 2025 Bruce:

Today one of the Redemption Center Leaders said an email that was received this morning said we should receive the numbers after 10am tomorrow Wed. 30 July. It could be 10 to noon or 2 pm.

They (allegedly) want the appointments done by Fri. 15 Aug.

Some banks say you will get $10 on the Dinar, but how about more at a Redemption Center?

They will verify your currencies on a De La Rue machine.

You’ll (allegedly) get a QFS Card, a five digit pin code, new email and password and a Qphone. You’ll need all those things to get into your QFS Account. The Qphone works off the Starlink system.

Your R&R will be in your QFS Account already.

DOGE payments are still meant to be coming out on the Fri., Sat, Sun, 1,2,3 of August.

Social Security increases will come in the month of August.

Most all exchanges will be done by the middle of Aug.

By Mon. 4 August the public may be notified on how to get their QFS Account.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

CONTINUATION: THE FINAL SEVERING …Mr. Pool on Telegram

Behind the veil, the Global Currency Reset is being finalized.
– Gold-backed currencies have been mirrored into QFS nodes
– Debt instruments nullified through sovereign treaties
– Hidden wealth and stolen assets seized for redistribution
– Redemption centers are secured and synchronized

The transition is not coming. It has already begun.

The Global Military Alliance is not a theory. It is active. They have reclaimed the codes. They have retaken the vaults. They are preparing the world for the post-fiat reality — a system of value, truth, and natural law.

Iraq Economic News and Points To Ponder Wednesday Morning 7-30-25

Government Advisor: Electronic Transformation Contributed To Lowering The Dollar Exchange Rate.
 
Baghdad - INA - Amina Al-Salami   The Prime Minister's financial advisor, Mazhar Mohammed Saleh, 
confirmed on Tuesday that the expansion of electronic transactions has contributed to  reducing speculation and  unreal demand for the dollar,   which has lowered its price on the parallel market.

 He also indicated that  reliance on digital payment tools has led to a decline in the volume of cash dollar trading.

Saleh told the Iraqi News Agency (INA):
"The expansion of the use of bank cards and electronic transactions has contributed to reducing the margin of speculation and the unreal demand for the dollar,  especially after linking transfer operations and trade finance to digital data and pre-verification of documents, such as the advance customs declaration."

He indicated that  "citizens' reliance on digital payment tools,  both locally and during foreign travel,  has led to a decrease in the volume of cash trading in dollars outside the official system." 

Saleh explained that "this has begun to have positive impacts at the international level,   given Iraq's membership in the Middle East and North Africa Financial Action Task Force (MENAFATF),  a regional organization established in 2004 that works to combat money laundering, terrorist financing, and the proliferation of weapons in the region,  in line with the 40 recommendations issued by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) in Paris." 

 He pointed out that  "Iraq, through its digital advancements, has made tangible progress, particularly
 ++with enhanced compliance with the requirements of the  Financial Action Task Force and     international compliance practices.
 
This has positively impacted Iraq's current stable credit ratings and opened up broader horizons for better engagement with global correspondent banks,
as we can see from the decline in the dollar exchange rate against the official rate in the parallel market in recent months."   He emphasized that
 
"modern electronic technology can be leveraged in Iraq through three complementary paths, the most important of which, based on the government's program, is the
     digital transformation of public finances and economic governance, which includes several directions, including:
          automating taxes and customs to maximize non-oil revenues,
          digitizing government contracts, and
          distributing support to eligible groups,
 
in addition to
     enhancing transparency and
     combating corruption through the presence of a digital fingerprint for every transaction."
 
Regarding innovation and small business technology, Saleh noted that
 
"digital technology development paths are taking on more modern dimensions,
most notably supporting digital entrepreneurship, such as
     e-commerce,
     delivery apps,
     distance learning, and others.

This is in addition to financing startups in the fields of
     artificial intelligence,
     smart agriculture, and
     solar energy, in addition to building digital platforms for vocational training and market access." 

He added, "There is a trend toward transitioning to a data and knowledge economy in close conjunction,
through the establishment of national data centers, the use of artificial intelligence in planning,

Government Advisor: Localizing The Pharmaceutical Industry Saved More Than $1 Billion Annually.
 
Baghdad – INA   Hamoudi Al-Lami, the Prime Minister's advisor for industry and private sector development,  revealed significant developments in the field of localizing the pharmaceutical industry in Iraq on Tuesday.

While noting that localization has saved more than $1 billion annually, 
he confirmed that 34 factories are currently operating at full capacity and that there are 178 applications to establish pharmaceutical factories.  Al-Lami told the Iraqi News Agency (INA):
 
“Since the first week of its formation, the government has begun implementing a program to localize the pharmaceutical industry.
 
The Council of Ministers issued decisions in 2023 supporting this trend,
     whether for existing projects by expanding them or by providing facilities for new projects,
     by granting loans to investors wishing to establish new factories or develop their existing projects.”

He added, "The government has provided facilities regarding the required guarantees,  including opening credits guaranteed by production lines.

The Cabinet's decisions also included measures to support the provision of raw materials needed to operate existing and future industrial projects, in addition to reviewing the prices of medicines purchased by the Ministry of Health from national factories.
 
Prices have been more than doubled,
     which has led to an increase in the value of contracts with the General Company for Drug Marketing from 144 billion dinars at the beginning of the government's term to more than 600 billion dinars so far.
 
This represents the value of locally produced medicines and constitutes about a quarter of the cost of imported medicines,   which means saving more than a billion dollars annually so far." 

He confirmed that  "the number of applications to establish pharmaceutical and medical supplies factories has reached 178 by July 1, up from 100 previously.
 
These applications include factories for the production of medicines, medical supplies, surgical sutures, intravenous solutions, syringes, and other medical devices,  thanks to the government support provided to investors." 

 He explained that "the number of pharmaceutical factories producing in the country has increased to 34,  compared to 22 factories when the current government was formed.
 
This is the same number that has remained since the establishment of the first pharmaceutical factory in 1956 until the formation of this government." He explained that
 
"the new factories are operating at full capacity and have contributed to increasing the coverage rate of locally produced medicines."  Al-Lami explained that
 
"locally produced medications are subject to the highest international standards,
     the same specifications as those approved globally.
 
They are also subject to strict pharmaceutical oversight using the latest technologies.
 
Clinical trials are underway for complex medications, such as those for blood diseases and cancer,
which have begun to be produced locally after technology transfer from international companies."
He concluded his remarks by saying,
 
"The Prime Minister's directives emphasize that the effectiveness and safety of pharmaceutical production are a red line," noting that,  "during the tenure of the current government, 38 new medications have been added to treat high blood pressure, 33 new medications to treat diabetes, and 58 types of antibiotics covering the needs of adults and children in various forms.
 
Local production of 25 cancer medications has also begun through technology transfer." ttps://ina.iq/ar/economie/239730-.html
