Tishwash:  Parliament postpones the 2025 budget law until after the elections.

Parliamentary Services Committee member Baqir al-Saadi confirmed on Saturday that one of the most important laws yet to be passed is the 2025 budget schedules law. He explained that this law is on hold until after the elections because the government has not sent it to the House of Representatives.

Al-Saadi told Al Furat News Agency, "The House of Representatives is expected to hold a single session this week to approve a set of laws, after which the electoral race will begin."  link

Tishwash:  The Iraqi parliament will not be in session until the elections. What are the reasons?

An Iraqi parliamentarian revealed the existence of a political will aimed at continuing to disrupt parliamentary sessions until the next parliamentary elections. Meanwhile, a researcher pointed to political calculations obstructing legislative work.

 MP Yasser Al-Husseini said in an interview with the "Al-Jabal" platform on Saturday, October 4, 2025, that "the inability of the House of Representatives to hold its sessions during the current period is due to the lack of political will and the intention to keep Parliament paralyzed until it is dissolved as the election date approaches."

 The MP stated that "the deliberate disruption of sessions is not due to technical or procedural reasons, but rather to hidden political agreements that seek to keep the parliament paralyzed, depriving citizens of the parliament's oversight and legislative role at a time when important decisions are required."

He added that "there are political forces that see the continued disruption of parliament as an opportunity to pass the time until the next elections, with the aim of avoiding the constitutional and oversight obligations imposed by this stage. This behavior contradicts the principles of democracy and undermines the public's confidence in elected institutions."

 The Iraqi parliament was scheduled to hold a parliamentary session last Wednesday to discuss and vote on 11 draft laws and proposals. However, the lack of a quorum prevented the session from convening for the third time in as many days.

 "Political calculations"

 For his part, political affairs researcher Riyadh Al-Wahili agreed with the parliamentarian's position, saying in a separate interview with Al-Jabal that "Parliament is facing a clear paralysis in holding its sessions, not as a result of technical or procedural circumstances, but rather due to the political will and premeditated intent of some influential forces.

There is a clear tendency to disrupt parliamentary work and leave Parliament in a state of stagnation until it is officially dissolved as the electoral deadline approaches."

 Al-Wahili explained that "this obstruction reflects narrow political calculations aimed at exploiting the legislative vacuum for electoral gains, rather than adhering to Parliament's constitutional role of oversight and legislation."

 According to him, "the continuation of this situation could open the door to further political crises, as the absence of parliamentary sessions means the absence of crucial decisions that affect people's daily lives, in addition to the suspension of necessary legislation to keep pace with the current situation."

 The political affairs researcher concluded his remarks by noting that "if political will remains bound by electoral calculations, Parliament will lose its justification for existence and will remain mired in obstruction until the next elections finally decide its fate.  link

Tishwash:  Iraq's gold reserves surge to 163 tons: PM advisor

Iraq’s gold reserves have increased by about 10 tons, but its foreign currency reserves are down, an advisor to the prime minister told Rudaw on Saturday.

Iraq's gold reserves have "increased significantly from 152.6 tons" last October to "163 tons" today, said Mazhar Mohammed Salih, an economic advisor to Prime Minister Mohammed Shia' al-Sudani.

Iraq holds the 29th largest gold reserves globally and the fourth largest in the Arab world, according to the World Gold Council.

"Having these reserves indicates Iraq's strong financial and economic stability," Salih said, adding that Baghdad's abundant reserves "could lead to encouraging foreign investment and securing a lasting economic infrastructure for our country."

Foreign currency reserves, however, stood at "around $100 billion, down by eight billion dollars compared with October last year," he said.

Iraq's foreign currency reserves consist of the US dollar, euro, Japanese yen, Chinese yuan, and the British pound.

Iraq's economy has shown signs of stabilization in 2025, with inflation dropping by 21 percent and gold reserves seeing a significant increase, according to a July report from the Central Bank of Iraq. The country is, however, grappling with a persistent budget deficit.  link

Tishwash:  Iran removes four zeros from its currency

Iran's Islamic Consultative Assembly voted on Sunday to remove four zeros from the currency, through a bill amending the Monetary and Banking Law.

The bill stipulates converting every 10,000 current Iranian rials into one new rial, while retaining the name "rial" as the country's official currency.

The move aims to simplify financial transactions and mitigate the effects of the severe inflation that Iran has been suffering from for years.

It is noteworthy that the law removing zeros also requires the approval of the Guardian Council before it comes into effect.

This move comes after years of inflation and the deterioration of the rial's value against foreign currencies due to economic sanctions, with the US dollar now worth more than 900,000 rials on the parallel market.  link

Jon Dowling Weekly RV Updates 3rd Oct 2025 Latest Updates

Jon Dowling Weekly RV Updates 3rd Oct 2025 Latest Updates

Chris Real World and Jon Dowling:  10-3-2025

October signals the entry into the final quarter of 2025—a period historically reserved for year-end maneuvering.

 However, the latest comprehensive Weekly RV Report for the week of October 3rd suggests that this Q4 is shaping up to be far more than just a typical fiscal close.

We are witnessing a monumental convergence of financial system overhauls, bold geopolitical power shifts, and the long-anticipated technological unveiling that together signal a complete restructuring of the global economic landscape.

From Baghdad’s banking halls to the evolving standards of international digital payments, here is a breakdown of the critical updates defining this pivotal moment.

The Middle East remains a nexus of financial and political change, highlighted by two extraordinary developments:

After years of fluctuating stability and regulatory uncertainties, the Weekly RV Report underscores that Iraq is actively completing significant banking reforms. 

These decisive actions signal the country’s profound readiness to re-engage fully with the international financial community. This move is viewed by many analysts as a concrete step toward economic sovereignty, despite previous contradictory signals that have clouded market expectations.

Crucially, United States support for Iraq’s constitutional reforms accompanies this financial maturation. This backing is not merely political; it is an affirmation of emerging stability and adherence to sound economic policy, paving the way for Iraq to play a much larger role in regional and global trade.

Adding an element of intrigue, the report notes unusual banking activity in Saudi Arabia. Speculation is rife regarding the nature of this activity—is it a sophisticated cyberattack testing the resilience of the Kingdom’s financial infrastructure, or a strategic, preparatory maneuver tied to deeper, perhaps undisclosed, economic and political transitions?

Either interpretation points to major volatility brewing within the core energy-producing nations.

The engine of global finance is undergoing a complete replacement, marking perhaps the most significant structural change since the Bretton Woods agreement.

The gradual, yet persistent, abandonment of the traditional SWIFT payment system is being accelerated by the transition to a modernized, digital asset-backed framework—commonly referred to as the Quantum Financial System (QFS) and governed by the ISO 20022 standard.

This adoption of distributed ledger technology and digital assets is not just about faster payments; it’s about transparency, security, and establishing a new paradigm for cross-border value transfer, paving the way for asset-backed currencies worldwide.

For Americans, this financial transition carries massive domestic implications. The report anticipates sweeping reforms aimed at restoring the nation’s economic prosperity to levels reminiscent of the Constitutional Republic prior to 1913.

Key among the projected changes is the potential removal of both income taxes and excise taxes. This revolutionary tax structure, utilizing consumption or tariff-based revenue models, aims to reduce government bloat and stimulate domestic production, fundamentally altering the relationship between citizen and state.

The report further details tectonic shifts across technology, monetary policy, and international defense.

The indicators of systemic financial restructuring are stark. The U.S. debt clock continues to tick down, acting as a visual testament to the ongoing restructuring efforts. This coincides with the reported gradual phasing out of the Federal Reserve, signaling the end of the current central banking model and reinforcing the move toward a fully asset-backed sovereign currency system.

The confluence of these factors—sovereign financial readiness, digital asset adoption, massive structural tax reform, and a volatile geopolitical landscape—demands immediate attention.

As the world enters its final quarter of 2025, the convergence of these events suggests that the next few months will bring historic economic and political shifts that will fundamentally redefine the 21st century.

For an in-depth analysis and further insights on these rapidly developing global events, we strongly recommend watching the full video report from economic analyst Jon Dowling.

11 Overlooked Risks That Could Ruin Your Financial Stability

11 Overlooked Risks That Could Ruin Your Financial Stability

By Claire Conway  Jun-12-2024

Financial pitfalls can throw a monkey wrench into even the most responsible person, which is why everyone should be aware of hidden threats that can derail your financial security. People reveal what unexpected life changes can turn your life upside down. Have you experienced any of these hidden financial threats?

1. All Homeowner-related Expenses

Where do I begin? Owning a home comes with endless potential repairs, from heat and water pumps to air conditioning, flooring, and roof repairs (and everything in between). Although owning a home is a significant life milestone, even the most frugal homeowner confesses that the expenses quickly pile up and easily turn a secure financial situation upside-down.

2. Missing a Credit Card Payment

In school, you learn about world history, calculus, and home economics, but you aren’t taught one of the most important life lessons: Paying your credit card payments on time. One of the most severe financial penalties you can face is failing to make the minimum monthly payment on your debt, causing interest rates to spike and your credit score to plummet. For many Americans, missing a credit card payment is catastrophic.

3. Car Loans

If you’re ever applying for an auto loan, always focus on the out-the-door cost of the vehicle you want to buy. The dealership will always push you toward lowering your monthly payment, even if there are better ways to navigate the loan. The longer your loan is, the more you’ll pay in the long run for your vehicle. Don’t fall for the “lower monthly payment” trick because it will cost you far more money in the end.

4. Losing Your Job

Nobody plans on ever losing their job, but sometimes, the unexpected happens. Getting laid off greatly affects your income, but nobody ever plans for it. After all, we misguidedly believe it will never happen to us. But trust me, your life can change in the blink of an eye when your “steady income” is suddenly ripped away! Obviously, an emergency fund is handy in times of unemployment, but that’s another aspect of financial wellness that many people underestimate.

5. Your Spouse’s Pension Ending

Unfortunately for married people, when one person passes away, their financial benefits cease to exist as well. One woman specializing in finding work for older Americans knows how hard it can be. “I’ve seen firsthand too often when the husband dies, the pension stopped,” one woman attests. “It sucked helping older women find jobs, especially when they had no experience in any job. We had to provide training in soft skills, too, like showing up at an exact time.”

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

BRICS Dollar Devaluation Advances With New Payment Systems

As BRICS nations build their own financial rails and lean on gold, the dollar’s grip is under direct challenge.

Payment Infrastructure: Building Alternatives to SWIFT

  ● At the Rio summit, BRICS leaders discussed a guarantee fund to undergird BRICS Pay, intended for local currency settlement without resort to Western banking networks. 
  ● The bloc is shifting focus from grand unified currency schemes to interoperable payment systems and national rails, per analysts at GIS Reports. 
  ● BRICS Pay is a decentralized messaging mechanism where member nations route payments via local currency systems
  ● While technical and regulatory gaps remain, prototypes and pilot links (e.g. between SPFS, CIPS, UPI, Pix) are being tested to bypass SWIFT. 

Gold & Local Currency Strategy: Anchors for De-Dollarization

  ● BRICS nations now hold over 6,000 tons of gold — about 20-21% of global central bank reserves. Russia and China together control nearly three-quarters of that total.
  ● This accumulation acts as a hedge and backing for alternative currency initiatives and reduces exposure to dollar volatility. 
  ● Trade among BRICS states increasingly uses settlement in national currencies, reducing the need for dollar liquidity and hedging. 

Competing Views, Internal Tensions & Rebalancing

  ● Some analysts argue BRICS is pulling back from aggressive de-dollarization, focusing instead on gradual shifts in trade settlement. 
  ● Indian officials maintain that while BRICS jointly explores alternatives, they have no intention to undermine the U.S. dollar outright. 
  ● Political pressure from the U.S. — including threats of tariffs — adds complexity. Russia has responded by distinguishing between a settlement system and a new currency, signaling continued work despite external pressure. 
  ● Diverse economic structures, regulatory standards, currency convertibility, and trust among states pose serious technical and institutional hurdles to full integration.

The Shift: Out With the Old, In With the New

• Traditional dollar-based networks and financial dominance are being contested

• BRICS is investing in alternative rails, backed by tangible assets and local currency trade

• Power over payment systems, reserve strategies, and settlement becomes a core battlefield

In effect, we are witnessing a structural reconfiguration of global finance, where decentralized, sovereign-controlled systems are replacing old hierarchies.

Why This Matters / Key Takeaway

BRICS’ push for dollar-free payment systems and gold-backed safeguards is not just incremental — it’s rearchitecting how trade, credit, and capital move globally. As dollar dependency weakens, new centers of financial gravity emerge.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

 Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani directed, today, Friday (October 3, 2025), to continue the celebrations of the Iraqi National Day for a week.

Al-Sudani's media office stated in a statement received by Baghdad Today that "the latter directed all relevant ministries, institutions, and departments to continue the celebrations of Iraqi National Day for a week, in honor of this important occasion, in order to consolidate the great meanings embodied in it in the souls of our Iraqi people."  link

Cutebwoy: : Iraq celebrates National Day with parades, marathon, and cultural events

2025-10-03 02:55   Shafaq News – Baghdad

Iraqis are celebrating their National Day on Friday, October 3, marking 93 years since the country gained independence from the British mandate and became the first Arab state to join the League of Nations in 1932.

The date, chosen as Iraq’s official holiday in 2020, recalls the League’s approval of Iraq’s membership, which recognized the new state as sovereign and capable of governing its own affairs.

Prime Minister Nuri al-Said submitted the request that year, ushering Iraq out of mandate rule and into the international community.

While some Iraqis have proposed other milestones—such as the 1958 founding of the republic, the 2003 fall of Saddam Hussein’s regime, or the 2014 call to arms against ISIS—October 3 has become the most widely accepted symbol of independence and international recognition.

This year, celebrations stretch across the country and beyond. In Baghdad, the Ministry of Defense prepared an aerial parade by the Air Force and Army Aviation, alongside a 21-gun salute at dawn. Military officials said the events reflect pride in sovereignty and unity, encouraging citizens to share in the festivities.

The capital also hosted a National Day marathon under the slogan “One Flag, One Homeland,” with free participation open to the public. Athletes from seven provinces joined the race, which carried a total prize fund of 15 million dinars. Organizers provided uniforms, participant numbers, and facilities to accommodate runners, turning the event into a festival of sport and community.

Beyond official ceremonies, ministries, provinces, and Iraqi embassies abroad are holding cultural and social events.

In a message marking the occasion, Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani extended his “sincere congratulations and heartfelt blessings” to all Iraqis, describing October 3 as the day that embodied the modern Iraqi state and its historic, civilizational, and cultural presence. He emphasized his government’s commitment to safeguarding the constitution, protecting resources, strengthening the economy, and securing Iraq’s rightful place regionally and internationally.

Tishwash:  Iraq: A Promising Economic Destination for Arab and Foreign Investment

 Iraq is currently witnessing a qualitative shift in its economic development, making it an attractive environment for investors from around the world.

Participants in investment forums emphasized that Iraq has become a preferred destination for companies and businessmen, given its significant economic and tourism potential, coupled with government efforts to create a favorable investment climate.

This comes at a time when trade with neighboring countries has reached record levels, amid a growing willingness by international companies to enter the Iraqi market and contribute to development projects.

In this context, Chairman of the Turkish-Iraqi Business Council, Khaled Akar, told the Iraqi News Agency (INA), "The volume of trade exchange between Iraq and Turkey has reached $16 billion, and we are seeking to increase it to $30 billion." He indicated that "Iraq's accession to the World Trade Organization will contribute to developing the volume of trade domestically and internationally, and will enable Turkish companies to contribute to the growth and development of Iraqi trade."

He added, "Turkish businessmen are ready to contribute to supporting development in the construction, health, digitalization, and other sectors," noting that "40 Turkish businessmen participated in the Iraq Investment Forum." 

For his part, Faisal Al-Jarba, a member of the Iraqi-Saudi Business Council, told (INA), "The investment forum held in Baghdad was important and successful, as we witnessed clear satisfaction among Arab investors, as well as investors coming from East Asia and several other countries."

He added that "a large number of influential businessmen in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia participated in this forum, which means that Iraq has become an important destination and a clear choice for investors." He noted that "the Iraqi government is serious about its work to combat corruption and confront anyone who attempts to seize state property or exploit its authority, and this bodes well."

He expressed his "hope that the Iraqi economy and Iraqi businessmen will receive the status they deserve, and that they will play a fundamental and effective role in building their country, in cooperation with other countries and investors from around the world."

In turn, Nasser Al-Noubis, Chairman of the Rotana International Group, confirmed to (INA), "Iraq is a promising country with great potential in the tourism sector. Today, it needs more than thirty thousand hotel rooms, while the available rooms are still insufficient."

He explained that "the more infrastructure develops, whether through the construction of hotels or facilitating investment and entry procedures into the country, the more opportunities will be to attract investors and encourage tourists to come to Iraq."

He pointed out that "Iraq is a great and civilized country, with diverse tourist attractions, especially the religious sites in Karbala, Najaf, and Kadhimiya, which attract visitors from all over the world."

He continued, "We began investing in Iraq more than 12 years ago, opening in Erbil, then Sulaymaniyah. Today, we are present in Baghdad and have also begun operations in Karbala. We look forward to expanding across all governorates, given the broad prospects for growth in Iraq's tourism sector."   link

Iraq Economic News and Points To Ponder Saturday Morning 10-4-25

Prime Minister: Iraq Is Moving Towards Full Independence And Preserving Its National Unity.

Buratha News Agency 10 3 2025  Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani affirmed today, Friday (October 3, 2025), that Iraq is moving towards full independence and preserving its national unity.

"We extend our sincere congratulations and best wishes to all Iraqis on the occasion of Iraqi National Day, which falls on October 3 of each year, marking the 93rd anniversary of our country's membership in the highest international body recognized by all countries and peoples of the world," Al-Sudani said in a statement.

Al-Sudani explained, "This day embodies the entity of the modern Iraqi state, and all that its contemporary existence carries in terms of historical, civilizational, and cultural meanings for our beloved Iraq, and for our noble people with all their fraternal spectrums, and with all their deep historical reach and what they have offered to humanity on its journey towards civilization, that journey that began in the land between the two rivers."

He added, "Throughout their modern history, Iraqis have faced many challenges and struggles, both during the early days of the founding of the present Iraqi state and during their fight against dictatorship," noting that "they have offered hundreds of thousands of martyrs along the way so that Iraq may attain its independence and full sovereignty."

Al-Sudani pointed out that "since we assumed our executive duties as Prime Minister, we have been keen to protect Iraq and its constitution, preserve its sovereignty, protect its wealth, and achieve prosperity and economic strength for our people.

We have also worked diligently and sincerely to ensure that Iraq is placed first in our endeavors and efforts, and that it takes its rightful place regionally and internationally."

He continued: "Glory to Iraq and its people, and mercy and blessings to all our martyrs on the path to Iraq's freedom, independence, and sovereignty."   https://burathanews.com/arabic/news/466007

Source: Jordan Investment Bank Close To Managing Iraqi Gulf Commercial Bank
  
September 29, 2025 Al-Mustaqilla/- Exclusive sources revealed to Al-Mustaqilla a remarkable investment move   linking the Jordanian banking sector   with its Iraqi counterpart.
 
Information indicates that the   Arab Jordan Investment Bank      is preparing to enter into a strategic partnership with the  Iraqi Gulf Commercial Bank   in the near future.
 
According to the source, the first phase of this partnership will see the  management of the Gulf Commercial Bank  assumed by an administrative team and  financial experts from the Arab Jordan Investment Bank, within a specific timeframe aimed at   strengthening the administrative and financial structure  of the Iraqi bank.
 
According to the preliminary agreement, this phase will extend for approximately two full years, during which the   focus will be on developing banking systems,   enhancing the efficiency of financial services, and   attracting new capital to support the bank's activities in the Iraqi market.

The source indicated that   this step represents the first stage toward a potential acquisition, as the undisclosed agreement includes a clause   allowing the Arab Jordan Investment Bank to gradually increase its stake,  eventually leading to the full purchase of the Gulf Commercial Bank,  should the partnership  prove successful and achieve the desired goals in terms of  profits and financial stability.
 
Economists believe that this transaction may reflect a new trend in   economic relations between Iraq and Jordan,  as Jordanian banks seek to expand their presence in the Iraqi market,
   which is witnessing growing demand for   advanced financial and banking services.
 
Observers also expect this deal to contribute to   raising the level of competition among Iraqi banks and      encouraging more foreign investment in the local financial sector.
 
These moves indicate that the   next two years may witness a   significant transitional phase in the   structure of the Gulf Commercial Bank,  opening the door to enhanced banking cooperation   between the two countries and  providing the Iraqi market with an additional impetus toward  modernization and    openness to regional expertise.

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

Global Banking Alliance Collapses: A Sign of Financial Realignment

The shutdown of the Net-Zero Banking Alliance reveals cracks in global financial institutions — and signals bigger changes ahead.

The Collapse of the NZBA

The Net-Zero Banking Alliance (NZBA) — launched in 2021 to align trillions in bank lending and investment with climate goals — has officially shut down after a member vote.

• ● The NZBA was backed by over 100 banks worldwide, representing $74 trillion in assets.

• ● Members included major players like HSBC, Citi, and Bank of America.

• ● Yet, mounting political pushback and regulatory concerns forced banks to walk away.

As The Guardian notes, “The alliance could not reconcile competing pressures between shareholder interests and climate commitments.”

Why It Matters

The collapse isn’t just about climate. It shows:

  ● Global finance alliances are fragmenting under pressure from politics, trade wars, and competing priorities.
  ● Banks are recalibrating — focusing more on geopolitical survival than on transnational frameworks.
  ● The U.S. tariffs, BRICS de-dollarization, and European trade shifts all point toward new blocs replacing old ones.

From ESG to Geopolitics

Over the past decade, ESG (environmental, social, governance) finance was positioned as a unifying framework.

Now, its retreat shows that geopolitical competition is replacing ESG coordination:

  ● BRICS nations are building alternative financial structures (new payment rails, gold-backed strategies).
  ● Western banks are pulling away from global consensus models, focusing instead on domestic politics and shareholder risk.
  ● The IMF and World Bank face pressure as rival blocs explore new institutions.

The Shift: Out with the Old, In with the New

The NZBA’s collapse is a symptom of a larger transformation:

  ● Old alliances (climate, trade, banking frameworks) are eroding.
  ● New alliances (BRICS, regional payment systems, digital currencies) are emerging.
  ● Global finance is moving toward fragmentation and multipolarity.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

Why This Matters

The end of the NZBA marks a turning point in international finance. When institutions built to coordinate the world’s largest banks fall apart, it signals that capital is being reallocated toward new centers of power.

We are entering a period where:

• ● Geopolitical alignment will drive banking decisions.

• ● Cross-border cooperation will be shaped less by shared ideals, and more by strategic blocs.

• ● Financial restructuring will accelerate as “out with the old and in with the new” becomes reality.

Global Crypto Regulation: What’s Shifting Abroad

Across Europe, Asia, and Russia, new regulatory frameworks are redrawing the rules of finance, signaling a deeper restructuring in motion.

Europe & UK: Tightening Stablecoin Scrutiny & Passporting Ambitions

  • EU Stablecoin Ban Proposal – The European Union is moving toward banning certain unbacked stablecoins, while creating licensing requirements for euro-backed tokens. This aims to protect consumers and maintain financial system stability. (Cointelegraph, 2025)

  • UK Digital Asset Regulation – The UK is advancing its sandbox programs and exploring comprehensive digital asset licensing, positioning London as a regulated hub for tokenized finance. (UK FCA Reports, 2025)

China: CBDC Expansion & Domestic Control

  • Digital Yuan Initiatives – China continues rolling out its central bank digital currency (e-CNY), integrating it with retail, government, and cross-border trade, strengthening its financial sovereignty. (Xinhua, 2025)

  • Crypto Crackdown – Domestic crypto trading remains banned, but China is supporting tokenization experiments within government-sanctioned channels, highlighting a dual strategy of control and innovation.

Russia: Legal Frameworks & Mining Oversight

  • Regulatory Clarity – Russia is formalizing crypto taxation, licensing exchanges, and integrating blockchain in government operations, aiming to stabilize its digital asset ecosystem. (RT, 2025)

  • Mining Incentives & Export Controls – Russia is incentivizing local mining while monitoring electricity and capital flows, balancing innovation with state oversight.

India: Crypto Legalization & Exchange Licensing

  • Proposed Crypto Bill – India is finalizing legislation to formally legalize digital assets while establishing regulatory oversight for exchanges and wallet providers. (Economic Times, 2025)

  • Focus on Compliance & Taxation – Digital asset transactions will be taxed, and exchanges are required to adhere to KYC/AML regulations, signaling alignment with global financial standards.

Global Implications: Towards Financial Restructuring

  • Harmonizing or Diverging Rules – As the EU, UK, Russia, China, and India move at different speeds, the world faces either a fragmented regulatory landscape or emerging new financial corridors outside the traditional dollar system.

  • Impact on Innovation – Countries with clear frameworks could attract tokenized asset flows, staking, and digital securities, creating an alternative to unregulated global exchanges.

  • Strategic Sovereignty & Multipolar Finance – This patchwork of regulation accelerates the shift to a multipolar financial world, aligning with the broader trend of nations seeking more autonomy and resilience in global finance.

Why This Matters

The global push for crypto regulation signals that major economies are not waiting for the U.S. to lead. Europe, China, Russia, India, and the UK are setting the stage for new financial rails and governance standards. Countries adopting strong, transparent frameworks can attract capital, while others risk marginalization — underscoring that this is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.
