Weekend Coffee with MarkZ. 10/18/2025

Some highlights by PDK-Not verbatim

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

MZ: the first 45 minutes we cut up with the CBD Guru’s. Then I will share what news there is.

Member:  Mark. Hoping this is the October that we’ve heard of as Red October

Member: let’s make it a “Green October” instead.

Member: Any bond news today?

MZ: Nothing changed since yesterday. Their expectation is for the coming week. They say they completed very important paperwork this past week…..things were very productive and they are looking for those dollars being distributes early to mid next week…..possible Tues or Wed….

Member: time for a class action lawsuit by those bondholders - emotional distress

MZ: Redemption contact says they are not working today. They are “on call” but not working yet.

MZ: They are doing their best to keep the RV a surprise….but they are certainly talking about it in Iraq.

MZ: They are talking about a final set of financial reforms …and announcing what the details are. Very positive.  “From Washington: A new banking and economic reform package for Iraq”  We have covered this meeting with Wyman going on in DC. A lot of meetings about digital reforms.

MZ:  “CBI putting out new instructions aimed at stopping dollar smuggling.”  These reforms would close the financial borders to not smuggle dinar out or into the country.  International compliance. This doesn’t make much sense unless they are planning to revale the currency.

MZ: I was told they would close their financial borders with the RV and they need to be able to control both directions during the process.  This is a great sign.

MZ: “Government Advisor: The ministry of finance has started preparing the 2026 budget” We never really saw a 2025 or 2024 budget. But my guess is they have to have a new value on the dinar first.

Member: I wonder how Iraq is funding all these new projects without having an RV?

Member: Frank26 says they are working on two sets of books.

Member: New PNC online banking is coming oct 24-26. Online banking and Zelle will be unavailable

MZ: A lot of banks have been updating last weekend, this weekend and next weekend,

MZ: I talked about it this week. Chunks are falling out of the financial walls. The financial system is falling apart at the seams. They need a reset.

MZ: Even Economic folks in Russia are saying the US is planning to use a crypto ledger style system (tether style accounts) to back the existing debt (phasing out the current debt) then go to “Gold Backed Treasuries” This is a gold standard for treasuries …then devalue the dollar and revalue gold. This is a reset. Other currencies will be going up in relation to the USD. A Global Currency reset back to sound money. ….all over the world economists are talking about it. .

Member: Saturday nights are allegedly the best time to release new rates…..fingers crossed for tonight.

Member: Hope everyone has a safe and beautiful weekend.

Iraq Economic News and Points To Ponder Late Friday Evening 10-17-25

Dollar Alternative
 
The Government Is Out Of The Equation. Gold Swallows The Iraqi Dinar And Becomes A "Money Laundering" Currency.
 
Economy / Special Files 10-16-2025, 11:00 PM | 2135  Baghdad Today - Baghdad Iraq is witnessing   an unprecedented surge in gold prices, amid a   decline in the state's monetary instruments and growing indications of the  expanding influence of parallel financial  networks   exploiting   market and  legal  loopholes.   This crisis, which began in a market influenced by the    London and New York stock exchanges, has become a mirror of the  broader crisis of confidence plaguing the Iraqi economy.

Experts believe that the yellow metal   is no longer a commodity tied solely to supply and demand,   but rather a precise indicator of the deep imbalance    between   monetary policy and the  real economy, and of the    government's failure to protect the market from   waves of speculation and  currency smuggling.
 
Economic expert Nasser Al-Kanani explained to Baghdad Today that “the continuous rise in gold prices in the local market   is directly due to global price fluctuations.
 
Iraq does not possess the tools to   intervene or the   ability to control this market,      which is governed by global stock exchanges.” He pointed out that  “the absence of local gold production has   made the country hostage to fluctuations in foreign markets.
 
Every rise in London or New York is immediately reflected in   Baghdad, Najaf, and Basra,    without any government capacity to mitigate its severity.”
 
Economic observers confirm that the continuation of this situation  means that Iraqi monetary policy    is operating in a completely exposed environment, and that the Central Bank has lost the ability to  manage price balance  after markets began operating according to the logic of    global supply and    uncontrolled local demand. 

Al-Kanani adds, "Geopolitical factors andUS interest rate decisions, along withdollar movements in the markets,   are the main drivers of gold prices currently,while the Iraqi government   is limited to a regulatory role through the      Central Bank and the      Tax Authority,  without any real tools for control."
 
Financial researchers point out that   this reality reflects the fragility of the Iraqi economy,      which         relies entirely on imports and    lacks internal protection strategies or  monetary balancing policies    that allow it to absorb shocks.
 
This has forced the local market   to operate on the principle of absolute freedom of trade,  without a balance between    economic freedom and the   equirements of financial stability.  Amid this situation, citizens are increasingly turning to gold as a means of savings,as   confidence in the dinar declines and   its exchange rate fluctuates against the dollar. 

Al-Kanani warned that “random speculation on gold is exacerbating the crisis, as   it raises local demand to unrealistic levels and      increases pressure on prices,” adding that  the government has lost the ability to control this wave,  at a time when prices fluctuate daily   based on the general mood of speculators,    not on well-considered economic decisions.”
 
Financial market observers   confirm that citizens’ behavior toward gold      has become a direct reaction to the         weakness of  financial and    banking institutions, and that the loss of confidence in the national currency has   pushed the popular economy to seek alternatives that preserve value,      even if they are outside the control of the state.

On the other hand, the gold crisis intersects with what anti-corruption expert Yassin al-Taie calls the   "prestige economy,"      meaning the use of illicit funds to    build a new social image known as "reputation laundering," a phenomenon that has become   synonymous with money laundering in recent years. 

Al-Taie told Baghdad Today, "There is a close connection between   money laundering and   reputation laundering.
 
Both are part of a single strategy    pursued by influential actors in the black economy, aimed at   circumventing the law and   obtaining social cover      that allows them to expand in the  economic and  political spheres."

Observers point out that this shift in the behavior of those with illicit capital   reflects a change in the form of corruption itself, as its goal is no longer solely to gain unlawful enrichment,   but rather to build a network of influence      that fortifies corruption within societal institutions.  

Al-Taie explains that “these entities resort to   establishing commercial companies that appear legitimate,   or financing cultural and charitable events,    to gain the trust of society and      grant themselves moral immunity         that prevents them from being held accountable.”
 
Oversight experts say that these practices have   distorted the local economic environment and   eroded trust in public institutions, as      corruption is no longer hidden or      confined to government agencies,
 
but has permeated the public sphere under the banner of   charitable work and   civic investment. Al-Taie adds that “some entities are taking advantage of   loopholes in the laws and   their relationships with influential circles      to expand their activities without oversight,”
 
which observers see as a clear threat to the principles of   institutional justice and   equal economic opportunity.
 
Economists believe that the combination of   loss of monetary control,   money laundering, and   reputational damage      represents a dangerous example of what is known as the "dual economy,"where the formal economy operates according to state rules,   while the parallel economy operates according to private interests.

Observers assert that the gold market today   is the legal front for the parallel economy. Through it,  money is recycled and      its sources are concealed,   while all transactions appear legitimate on paper." They point out that this phenomenon   "keeps the state in the position of a bystander      while informal money circulates freely within institutions."
 
Economic researchers argue that addressing the crisis   requires rebuilding oversight mechanisms for gold trade and imports,    linking them to a unified financial tracking system    overseen by the   Central Bank and the   Anti-Money Laundering Authority,    similar to that implemented by European Union countries. 

Economists point out that "the existence of a national registry for gold traders   that requires them to disclose their sources of funding      will help block   smuggling and   money laundering networks," adding that "the absence of this type of transparency   makes the market an ideal place      to funnel illicit capital    under the guise of legitimate trade."
 
Observers agree that   continuing this path    will    deepen the loss of confidence in the national currency and     transform gold into an alternative currency    outside the banking system.

This will constrain the Central Bank's ability to manage liquidity and   increase the likelihood of          Iraq being exposed to new international financial pressures.
 
Economists believe that "the   country needs a   flexible and   integrated monetary policy     that links   financial stability with   security oversight of financial movements," while anti-corruption experts assert that   "any reform that does not address reputational damage    with the same seriousness as money laundering   will remain merely superficial."
 
According to economic observers, "the crisis has gone beyond the market stage   to become a national crisis of confidence," noting that gold today is no longer merely a measure of wealth,   but rather "an indicator of the state's vulnerability to unregulated money."
 
Researchers assert that regaining control of the gold market   is not simply a matter of price,  but rather a test of the government's ability to   restore discipline to its financial system and  prevent  wealth from becoming a means of influence and the    economy from becoming a vehicle for organized corruption.    https://baghdadtoday.news/285348-.html    

By 40%, The Central Bank Is Committed To Implementing Comprehensive Strategic Banking Reforms.
 
Economy |  12:59 - 17/10/2025   Mawazine News - Economy Prime Minister's Advisor Saleh Mahoud Salman affirmed on Friday that the   government is proceeding with comprehensive strategic banking reforms, noting that the   government is committed to continuing to implement the      economic and financial reform program.
 
In a speech delivered during his participation   as a representative of the government in the banking reform conference      organized by the Central Bank of Iraq   in cooperation with the international consulting firm Oliver Wyman   at the Ritz Carlton Hotel in Washington, DC,   on the sidelines of the meetings of the   International Monetary Fund and the      World Bank, Mahoud said,
 
“The government is committed to continuing to implement the   economic and   financial      reform program aimed at    enhancing the efficiency of the banking system and     supporting sustainable development in the country.”

He stressed that “the banking sector represents a fundamental pillar in the economic reform process,” indicating that “the government is proceeding with implementing comprehensive strategic banking reforms   in cooperation with the Central Bank of Iraq,  aimed at    raising the standards of banking work and    enhancing the competitiveness of the financial system.

” ]He explained that “the government has prepared a three-year general budget for the first time,   which allows for      long-term financial planning,      achieving stability in resource management, and      enhancing the confidence of local and international investors.”

 Within the framework of     diversifying revenues and    reducing dependence on oil, he indicated that “the government has   achieved tangible progress in automating the customs system  through the implementation of the United Nations ASYCUDA system,  which has led to a   clear increase in customs revenues in addition to a  significant improvement in tax revenues,” noting that
 
"The government has implemented a program to restructure state-owned banks   (Rafidain, Rashid, Industrial, and Agricultural)      in cooperation with international consulting firms,  with the aim of   raising their efficiency and  enhancing their ability to provide modern financial services." 

He pointed out that "the government has launched programs   to expand the    use of electronic payments and    partnerships with financial technology companies,   which has contributed to raising the rate of financial inclusion      to more than 40%,  up from less than 10% two years ago.
 
This has been praised by the   World Bank and the   International Monetary Fund." He emphasized "the government's support for small and medium-sized enterprises   by providing financing and resources   to     create new job opportunities and      stimulate the local economy."

 Salman stated that "the banking reforms currently underway represent a   pivotal moment in Iraq's economic development history, and that the government is determined to support all local and international institutions   working to develop the banking sector,    considering it a pivotal part of the plan for  economic growth and  financial stability." He noted that "the government expressed its appreciation to the   Central Bank, the   banks, and the   international and local advisory teams working in this field."   https://www.mawazin.net/Details.aspx?jimare=268633

Seeds of Wisdom RV and Economics Updates Saturday Morning 10-18-25

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

Balancing the Edge: Currency Calm Masks Deeper Market Tremors

When the dollar stands still, it often means the ground beneath it is shifting.

Global Markets Show Uneasy Balance

The global currency and commodity landscape entered a rare moment of balance this week, with the U.S. dollar holding steady even as geopolitical tensions escalated. Beneath that calm, traders are reading signals of strategic repositioning and subtle intervention.

The U.S. Treasury’s reported $200 million sale of Argentine pesos underscored Washington’s readiness to manage emerging-market stress. Meanwhile, silver and gold markets flashed early warning signs, as analysts at BCA Research cautioned that short squeezes in metals often precede liquidity shocks.

Signals Behind the Stability

In a world where currencies no longer simply reflect trade flows, they reveal political currents.

  ● Emerging-market currencies are increasingly vulnerable to sanctions, capital flight, and policy shocks.
  ● Commodity shifts, especially in gold and silver, now act as real-time sentiment barometers for systemic risk.
  ● Dollar steadiness may mask preparations for deeper financial decoupling between global blocs.

While the charts appear calm, the underlying movement suggests capital is seeking safe ground before the next round of monetary and geopolitical shifts.

Why This Matters

Currency stability often precedes structural change.
Behind today’s calm façade, the architecture of global finance is quietly evolving — away from interest-rate dominance and toward resource-backed value systems.

If this trajectory continues, the next era of global finance will not be defined by who sets rates — but by who controls tangible value: energy, metals, and strategic currencies.

Out with the old and in with the new — the signals are already in motion.

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

A Tunnel Through Time: The U.S.–Russia Meeting and Moscow’s New Diplomatic Blueprint

From political distance to physical connection, a quiet proposal could redefine global alignment.

A New Phase in U.S.–Russia Relations

Reports of an upcoming Trump–Putin meeting in Budapest have reignited speculation over a potential thaw between Washington and Moscow. Yet, beyond the headlines, an unexpected proposal is circulating — one that blends infrastructure, symbolism, and strategy.

According to a recent analysis from Modern Diplomacy, the Kremlin has advanced an “audacious bid” to create a physical tunnel link between the U.S. and Russia via the Bering Strait. The project, dubbed a “tunnel of diplomacy,” aims to symbolize a permanent channel of cooperation in trade, energy, and technology.

While the notion may seem ambitious, it fits within a larger narrative of economic realignment: building bridges — literally — as political alliances shift.

Strategic Implications

“In geopolitics, infrastructure is diplomacy made concrete.” — Modern Diplomacy, Oct 2025

  ● Such a project would bind energy and logistics networks across the Arctic, reducing reliance on Europe and Asia for trade routes.
  ● It could shift leverage from Western-controlled maritime channels to a joint Arctic corridor managed through bilateral agreements.
  ● For Washington, participation would signify a pragmatic, not ideological, shift — prioritizing resource access and stability over rivalry.

This concept reflects a subtle, post-sanction diplomacy: nations seeking economic interdependence as a tool for peace, not pressure.

Why This Matters

If realized, the “tunnel of diplomacy” would mark a physical manifestation of geopolitical restructuring.
It would connect not just two nations, but two financial systems — potentially linking Western capital flows with Eurasian resource frameworks.

In this sense, the bridge becomes the blueprint: a visible symbol of the emerging order where economic survival outweighs political division.

Out with the old, in with the new — diplomacy now runs through steel, not speeches.

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

Shockwaves and Safe Havens: How Geopolitical Risk Is Repricing the World

When politics drives markets, currencies become the first casualty.

Markets Under Pressure

A surge in geopolitical tension across Europe and the Middle East has sent investors scrambling for stability. Gold briefly touched another record high, and major currencies — from the yen to the euro — are moving not on economics, but on fear.

Even as central banks signal caution, capital flight toward tangible assets is reshaping how markets interpret risk. Traders once gauged volatility through interest-rate moves; today, they track troop deployments, sanctions, and energy routes.

A New Era of Risk Pricing

“Geopolitical instability is now a leading indicator, not a lagging one.” — IMF Outlook, October 2025

  ● Safe-haven demand for gold, silver, and oil reflects declining confidence in fiat-based stability.
  ● Sovereign debt markets are fragmenting, with yields moving inversely to traditional logic.
  ● BRICS+ economies are doubling down on commodity-backed trade, insulating themselves from Western liquidity shocks.

This shift signals that the next financial reset may emerge not from policy — but from pressure.
The global economy is quietly repricing itself around security of value, not the promise of growth.

Why This Matters

The world is witnessing a structural rotation in capital confidence.
When gold outperforms currencies, it means the trust equation is changing — away from central banks and toward real assets.
If these trends persist, the next financial order may no longer pivot on the dollar or euro, but on resource control and bilateral trade guarantees.

Out with the old and in with the new — the markets are already writing the first chapter of that transition.

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

Does The Central Bank Intend To Remove Zeros From The Dinar?

Economy | 11:08 - 10/14/2025  Mawazine News - Baghdad -  The Central Bank of Iraq announced, on Tuesday, its gold reserves and its intention to remove zeros from the Iraqi currency. The Deputy Governor of the Central Bank, Ammar Khalaf, said in a press statement, followed by Mawazine News, that: "The Central Bank of Iraq has increased its gold holdings from 90 tons to 170 tons at the present time."

Khalaf added that "this amount of gold now constitutes 20% of the total assets of the Central Bank, and Iraq currently ranks fourth in the Arab world in gold holdings and 29th globally."

The Deputy Governor of the Central Bank confirmed that "there is no intention to float the exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar, so as not to affect the stability of the economy at the present time."

Khalaf revealed that "there is an intention to remove zeros from the Iraqi dinar in order to ease the burden of hoarding banknotes on the financial sector."  https://www.mawazin.net/Details.aspx?jimare=268477

Central Bank: Gold Reserves Reach 170 Tons, With Intention To Remove Zeros From Dinar

Buratha News Agency1132025-10-15  The Central Bank of Iraq announced, on Tuesday, October 14, 2025, its gold reserves and its intention to remove zeros from the Iraqi currency.

Deputy Governor of the Central Bank, Ammar Khalaf, said in a press statement, "The Central Bank of Iraq has increased its gold holdings from 90 tons to 170 tons at the present time."

Khalaf added, "This amount of gold now constitutes 20% of the Central Bank's total assets, and Iraq currently ranks fourth in the Arab world in gold holdings and 29th globally."

The Deputy Governor of the Central Bank confirmed that "there is no intention to float the Iraqi dinar exchange rate, so as not to affect the stability of the economy at the present time."

Khalaf revealed that "there is an intention to remove zeros from the Iraqi dinar to ease the burden of banknote hoarding on the financial sector."   https://burathanews.com/arabic/economic/466485

Bondlady Site Member  calaciura:  I'm not sure if AI is accurate when we talk about deleting the zeros. My concern is will our notes in the United States will have those zeros dropped as well, which would mean it would lop the currency in the value. What are your thoughts

Bondlady Site Administrator tlm724:  Hey calaciura, we are in very interesting times for sure !! It's difficult to know exactly what is going to happen but I will try to shed some light on the subject. Most recently the Prime Minister's financial advisor, Mazhar Mohammed Salih said on 10/10/2025 that

"Controlling inflation is the primary goal for maintaining price stability and the purchasing power of the Iraqi dinar."

and " Monetary policy also succeeded in maintaining the positive effects of the official exchange rate of 1,320 dinars per dollar and limiting the effects of the parallel exchange market on the stability of the pricing system."

lastly ""Iraq is witnessing a significant price boom, which is an indicator of the success of economic policy implementation. This is a remarkable development, unprecedented in the past ten years, as this stability is reflected in the country's cash income."

https://www.bondladyscorner.com/t227661-government-advisor-monetary-policy-has-achieved-stability-in-the-exchange-rate-and-inflation

Bondlady Site Administrator tlm724:  Saleh is also in Washington today meeting with officials from the US Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve

https://www.bondladyscorner.com/t227718-dr-saleh-mahoud-from-washington-we-are-committed-to-supporting-the-central-bank-s-efforts-in-banking-reform

Bondlady Site Administrator tlm724:  The above information is important because the CBI is trying and succeeding in controlling inflation and stabilizing the economy/exchange rate. These are critical to setting the stage for the possible removal of the 3 zero's. They would never attempt the removal without a stable environment. The fact that they are considering this is encouraging, something, WE as investors have never seen. On a side note :

" When a government drops three zeros from a currency, it is called redenomination. This is a symbolic change that makes large numbers easier to use and calculate, but it does not directly affect the currency's purchasing power or value. The change is intended to simplify transactions and can be a psychological tool to signal the end of high inflation, but its long-term success depends on accompanying economic policies"

"In monetary economics, redenomination is the process of changing the face value of banknotes and coins in circulation. It may be done because inflation has made the currency unit so small that only large denominations of the currency are in circulation."

Bondlady Site Administrator tlm724:  I wish I had a clear and definite idea of what comes next but I do not. It is times like these were I wish our Bondlady was here to guide us ! I think our best course of action is to stay the course and watch for forth coming changes. If the removal happens it will take time to print bank notes etc... and there will be transition period just as there was in 2003.There are many Dinar notes outside of Iraq that I think there would be a time frame for exchanging it but as far as the value that remains the question. What it means for us is yet to be seen but I promise we will be here for you and each other each step of the way !! Thank you

Silver Shorts Panic? Silver Breaks $54, Gold $4300 | Ed Steer

Silver Shorts Panic? Silver Breaks $54, Gold $4300 | Ed Steer

Liberty and Finance: 10-16-2025

Silver has been rising sharply, climbing roughly a dollar per day and recently breaking above $54.

Market analyst Ed Steer joins Liberty and Finance to discuss the unprecedented physical shortages now emerging across global exchanges, with massive withdrawals from COMEX and tight supplies reported in London, India, and China.

He notes that open interest continues to rise alongside prices, signaling sustained demand and a lack of short covering among major traders.

Steer explains that the squeeze on physical availability reflects years of structural deficits and intensifying global investment interest.

 As the market approaches a potential turning point, he emphasizes the importance of owning physical silver and staying positioned ahead of what could become a historic move higher.

Jon Dowling: Currency Revaluations, NESARA, GESARA Updates with NVTV for October 2025

Jon Dowling: Currency Revaluations, NESARA, GESARA Updates with NVTV for October 2025

10-16-2025

For decades, the global financial system has operated on a faulty premise: fiat currency backed by nothing more than government trust. The result? Persistent inflation, declining purchasing power, and vast economic inequality.

But the winds are shifting.

A recent deep dive between financial analysts Jon Dowling and Nick suggests we are not just facing minor economic turbulence, but a foundational Global Reset—a calculated shift away from the corrupt, elite-controlled fiat world and back toward currencies backed by tangible, real-world assets.

Here is a breakdown of the key elements driving this anticipated economic revolution, focusing on currency revaluation, the role of gold, and the rise of strategic digital assets.

To understand where we are going, we must first look back to 1971—the moment the US dollar officially severed its ties to the gold standard. Jon Dowling highlights this date as the genesis of our current financial malaise.

The detachment allowed central authorities to print money virtually limitlessly, leading directly to the inflation and loss of currency purchasing power we experience today. This system has primarily served a small, corrupt elite.

The Reset is fundamentally about reversing this.

The goal is to restore economic sovereignty to nations by ensuring currencies are anchored by real assets—like gold, silver, and crucial natural resources. This move promises a fairer global trade environment and a predicted “golden age” of wealth redistribution and prosperity.

A currency revaluation (RV) is the purposeful adjustment of a nation’s currency valuation relative to global standards, often leading to massive gains for early investors.

The Historical Blueprint: The Kuwaiti Dinar The speakers point to the Kuwaiti Dinar post-Gulf War as a prime example. After strategic revaluation, holding the previously suppressed currency resulted in substantial wealth gains.

The Current Focus: The Iraqi Dinar (IQD) Today, all eyes are on Iraq. Due to extensive international investment, massive untapped natural resources (beyond oil, including precious metals), and strategic geopolitical positioning, the Iraqi Dinar is positioned as the “ribbon cutter”—the first major currency expected to undergo a significant RV.

Years of systemic corruption have prevented free international trade of the IQD at its true value. However, ongoing international efforts to cleanse and stabilize Iraq’s economy, combined with significant actions by the Iraqi government, signal imminent change.

The underlying infrastructure is being laid for Iraq to participate fully and fairly in the global economy, making the RV not a theoretical event, but a strategic necessity.

Trust in traditional fiat banks is nearing an all-time low, fueling a massive demand surge across alternative asset classes.

The price surges in gold and silver are not arbitrary; they reflect growing global distrust in unbacked paper money. Dowling notes the concept of backwardization in the silver and gold markets—a technical anomaly that signals severe stress and a weakening of the traditional financial clearing system. This flight to physical assets confirms that sophisticated actors are preparing for a systemic breakdown and subsequent restructure.

While the reset marks a return to tangible assets, it will be supported by advanced digital infrastructure. The conversation highlights XRP (Ripple) as a potential future backbone for international banking.

Significantly, the US Treasury reportedly creating an XRP wallet reinforces the idea that strategic cryptocurrencies are not just volatile speculative assets, but critical components being integrated into the future global payment and trade system. XRP is positioned as the swift, transparent means by which the new, gold-backed trade flows can be managed.

The push for a global reset is heavily supported by key voices advocating for economic fairness.

Dr. Judy Shelton, a potential appointee to the Fed or Treasury, advocates for a gold-backed US bond. This single action would restore vital global trust in US financial instruments and stabilize currency valuation worldwide, aligning with the principles of asset-backed sovereignty.

This sentiment echoes the long-held position of President Trump, who has consistently pushed back against currency manipulation, demanding a level playing field for international trade and monetary valuation.

Geopolitical events—like potential US intervention in Venezuela and unrest in Zimbabwe—are viewed as part of this global domino effect, clearing the final hurdles toward economic parity.

The message from Dowling and Nick is clear: the transition from a corrupt fiat system to one of tangible asset backing is underway.

While the process of cleaning up centuries of economic corruption takes time and resilience, the end result promises a “golden age” of global prosperity and wealth distribution.

For citizens observing this complex landscape, the encouragement is to stay resilient and hopeful. The true currency, they emphasize, is the people, and persistence in demanding systemic change will lead to significant positive growth.

To fully understand the mechanics and timeline of this momentous global shift, ensure you watch the complete discussion video from Jon Dowling and Nick.

Bruce’s Big Call Dinar Intel Thursday Night 10-16-25

Bruce’s Big Call Dinar Intel Thursday Night  10-16-25

Transcribed By WiserNow Emailed To Recaps  (INTEL ONLY)

Welcome everybody. The big call tonight. It is Thursday, October 16, and you're listening to the big call. Thanks for tuning in, everybody. Thank you for being here again and again, again, again. We love you and we're glad you're with us.

We’re going to have another good call tonight, and I'm excited for it. All right. Thank you, Bob. Appreciate that very much. Let's get into the Intel segment, and I didn't have a whole lot. We actually got a lot of information yesterday, and it was interesting because we had five or six different sources unrelated to each other, that were telling us we are ready to go. They thought it would be today.

Now, one in particular said we thought we'd be notified with our emails around 11 this morning, and it didn't happen. He said, if that doesn't happen today, look around 930 in the morning Friday, tomorrow. And I thought, all right, all right. Well, we can do that

Now  The way this intel changes, I'm going to intercept and introduce a concept. Remember, President Trump just brokered a peace deal, the 20 point peace accord, with Hamas and Israel.

And there's still some stuff going on there, but they did, like Jeannie said, they have returned some of the deceased, people that were held captive, all the people that were alive, and there were 20 of them, came back about three days ago, but now it's time to send the deceased bodies back to Israel, and they're in the process of that, but Hamas is not exactly playing ball, so we'll see what they do. We know we can't trust what they say, so we'll see what they do

Next. President Trump has already had a call  I believe President Putin of Russia, he may have another one tonight or tomorrow, but I know that from Ukraine is meeting with President Trump tomorrow in the Oval Office.

And those two are supposed to be putting together and signing the peace accord between Russia and Ukraine, and we should have that complete and announced tomorrow, and the word we had was President Trump will be announcing World Peace tomorrow.

Now that should satisfy GESARA and NESARA to get underway, and I'm looking forward to that. Looking forward to us getting notified. I don't know if it'll be tomorrow. It could push all the way to and through the weekend.

Remember I said Tuesday, I'm hearing two things. I'm hearing Thursday, which was today, we didn't get it, and I'm hearing later in the weekend, like Sunday, even Sunday into Monday.

So we're definitely heard at least till tomorrow, and it could end up being the weekend.

And you know what? As a result, I don't know where we stand exactly, because we can't get confirmation back yet on the DOGE payment, the R and R payment, and the tariff dividends, all of which are coming as direct deposits into our bank accounts.

So we don't know exactly what status is on those coming  -- Social Security increases, we heard would be this month. No evidence of it, yet, no evidence.

And we've actually already had three weeks of Social Security, first, the eighth and 15th, 22nd will be next Wednesday. So what we have heard people see is a notification from Social Security of a $99 increase. Well, that's not the increase that we're talking about that might be a cost of living allowance. The only thing I can think of, it's just a little $99 bump.

So I wouldn't call that the increase. So I wouldn't, I would not count on it unless, unless at the very end of the month, they go ahead and give everybody the increase that they are looking for in their social security that they didn't get. Let's see what happens on that. Court is still out on that. We can't get confirmation on that yet. Of course, I'll probably get something after the call is over tonight. Yeah, on Thursday night. Usually, that's something, but that doesn't help us now,

Alright, so we go beyond that. We heard that now, the same person that gave us 11 o'clock today also gave us, if not, they'll look for something at 930 in the morning tomorrow. And then further to that, we go, okay, what is going on in Iraq? Well, we got word from our source in Iraq, and there's a couple of guys that we talked to there in Iraq that are very close to President Sudani  and Iraq and everybody else that's of power there. They know them personally. And what we're hearing is that Iraq this morning, at 830

Iraq time, Baghdad time, did revalue the Iraqi dinar, and this time it's one where the three zeros on the three zero notes in Iraq, that would be the 25k 10k 5k and 1k notes all have the three zeros stripped off to the point where they now are worth 25 dinar, 10 dinar, five dinar and one dinar without the three zeros  - That does not affect our dinar that we have.

We have dinar with the three zeros on and that's what it's going to be when we go into the redemption centers. And we knew this was going to happen. Oh, it got at least 10 or 12 years ago. We knew this would happen. Finally occurred today.

Finally. Now we don't know exactly what the rate is in country or the quote, unquote international rate. I know what the rate is going to be on our bank screens for dinar. I know what it is on the redemption center screen, and I know what the contract trade is for dinar. Remember the word hundo? That's right in that region, in that region.

 So let's, let's stay very positive about that. This is very good news that Iraq had to get their digital act together and to get the people connected with banks digitally. That's what primarily they're going to be a digital currency, a digital country. And they did it. It had to be done by yesterday, President Trump told them to shake a leg, and they did. They got it done. So Iraq's done. They've got a new rate.

They've got the three zeros off of the 25k 10k 5k and 1k notes.

And so now it's just us getting the Go ahead. This is what we heard from Iraq. All they need now is the go ahead from the United States and that go ahead, should be a call or some communication from President and or Scott Bessent. And Scott, I'm sorry if I pronounce your name Bessent instead of Besson. I just like the set better.

Okay, so those, I think that's going to tell when those guys decide to let this go. That's when we get notified  -  The Forex was not up with rates, but the rates were blinking so fast on the screens yesterday, and I would think also today, that you couldn't even make any heads or tails out of it, those rates will solidify, and maybe it'll take the Sunday to do it.

We don't know when they're going to solidify. It doesn't really matter. What really matters is what's already happened. The Forex can show it or not show it. It won't matter. What really matters to us is redemption center screens showing the rate. We know what the front screen rate is on the dinar.

We know what is on the Dong, and we know what the contract rate is, which they should offer you, even if you have Zim, by the way, even if you have Zim, you can get the contract rate on dinar, but especially if you have projects, you don't have any projects, I would not count on the contract rate on dinar

 If you have projects, and even if you have Zim, they should offer you the contract rate, or if they don't, very politely, ask them for it, if you have dinar

 All right, so where do we take it beyond there? We know bond holders. We're told that they would have access to their funds today at one o'clock. I don't think that happened.

I don't think they're going to get access to their funds until at least we get numbers and are setting our appointments, so maybe they get access tomorrow, maybe over the weekend. I don't know. We haven't heard that yet, but the good news is we're right there in the sweet spot President Trump with Zelensky tomorrow in the Oval Office.

I don't know what time yet, but I believe they'll get that done. They'll have a press conference probably on it  they will sign that peace accord  with Russia and Ukraine, and President Trump will be announcing World Peace Now, even if it's a temporary peace with Hamas and Israel -- They did sign it, and it's in effect.

So I think the President you realize that's nine different conflicts, including Russia, Ukraine will have solved nine different conflicts, and it's tremendous.

I'm very excited about this, and I think that we should all feel it feels really good about President Trump leading this country, because he's doing a superb job, and he's going to continue to do that at least through the end of this term, if not beyond.

Now what else can we look for?  We know that there were deliveries made today to redemption centers and banks of what I believe is probably additional USN currency, our new folding money, and depending on when we get started with our exchanges, we should have announced as our new asset backed currency, because the USN. is a very integral part of the NESARA and GESARA.

So I would look for that to happen over the weekend.

There's a lot that could be announced. There's a lot of things. You know, are we going to get the Emergency Broadcast System.

Are we going to see some additional items of disclosure?

I don't know how soon, but I believe that won't be far away either.and we get everything that we need. Hopefully we learn everything that's contained in the law of NESARA for us, and we'll see how that's coming into play

I know it was a belief last night, IRS, the Internal Revenue Service, changed over to the external revenue service.

And remember, we lost 70% of IRS personnel either furlough or layoffs or whatever, and then the 30% that remained were the good people that will now be taken over the external revenue service. So we should get some announcements pretty soon about that which president, Trump has already talked about, external revenue service.

We just want to know what it means in terms of no more taxes. I just don't know exactly what's going to take effect. It may take effect at the beginning of next year, 2026

It may take Yeah, it seems like you'd have a clean break, in other words, between one tax year and the next tax year. But I don't know. I just am not getting that clearly.

But I think you're going to see Nasara rolled out, starting this month through the end of this year. Various components of it will be introduced and rolled out for the next two and a half months.

Today's the 16th we're halfway through the month. We're just going to have to stay tuned and pay attention to our emails, and if you catch the news  It'll be on Newsmax watching it tomorrow, or one American news or for good news outlets. I watch them both, and I think those are Trump likes both of them. So I'm going to be looking tomorrow to see when that's going to occur.

Now, as always, remember, if registered on because universe.com you'll be able to put your email in as a sign up so that we'll send you an email when we get the toll free number. And we'll also put the toll free number on our website itself, on the page of the website, and Bob and Ronnie are prepared to handle that when we get the number.

I think everybody is ready for this. I know I am looking forward to it, and quite possibly the weekend play for us. I don't know of anything now that's holding us up. Tomorrow, we should have an analysis World Peace by the President, and Iraq is done and ready, so we'll see. I think everything is coming down to the water.

So let's go ahead Thank everybody., we're kind of on the edge of this thing going  And just thank you big call universe for staying tuned for 14 years it's been a wonderful, wonderful ride, and we'll see what happens over the weekend, and at the very least, we should have a call on Tuesday. Hopefully it's a celebration call. We'll see what happens.

Okay, everybody stay tuned. Have a great weekend and watch for the President to make this announcement and anything else that he might say, and maybe he might have some comms in his speech, usually has something that we can pick up in there.  So let's go ahead and pray the call out.  . Let's keep an eye on the emails over the weekend.

India Cuts Russian Oil Imports by Half After U.S. Talks — A Shift with Global Implications

Energy diplomacy, sanctions pressure, and BRICS realignment collide

The Strategic Pivot

India has reportedly slashed Russian oil imports by 50% following recent U.S.–India trade talks, according to Reuters.

The decision marks a potential shift in New Delhi’s careful balance between cheap Russian crude and strategic ties with Washington.

• Since Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine, India became one of Moscow’s largest energy buyers, purchasing discounted oil despite Western sanctions.

• The U.S. has long urged India to diversify energy sources and align more closely with G7 sanctions policy.

• Indian refiners reportedly began cutting orders in September, though official data won’t confirm reductions until late 2025.

“This reduction follows constructive talks between our energy teams,” a White House spokesperson told Reuters. “We welcome India’s steps to support global stability.”

Why It Matters

The move underscores a realignment in global energy politics:

• India: Balances domestic affordability with growing Western diplomatic pressure.

• United States: Gains leverage in isolating Russian energy revenues without triggering global oil shocks.

• Russia: Faces shrinking Asian markets, further constraining revenues as Western sanctions deepen.

• China: May benefit from redirected Russian crude at deeper discounts, tightening Moscow–Beijing energy ties.

No formal Indian directive has been issued yet, and refiners are adjusting cautiously to avoid price instability.

Global Policy Implications

This quiet shift carries macro-financial consequences that tie directly into the broader “financial reset” narrative:

• Reduced Russian oil flows could tighten global liquidity in commodity trade, especially for nations transacting outside the dollar system.

• India’s move suggests deeper U.S. coordination to reassert the petrodollar framework, which BRICS nations — particularly Russia and China — have sought to challenge.

• As BRICS pushes for alternative settlement systems and gold-linked trade mechanisms, India’s participation becomes increasingly uncertain.

• This could fragment BRICS cohesion, weakening plans for a unified reserve asset or “BRICS currency.”

The Bigger Picture

If sustained, India’s pivot may accelerate two parallel dynamics:

• A Western-led tightening of global finance through sanctions and compliance systems.

• A BRICS-led counterstructure, forced to innovate faster — potentially via digital settlement rails, gold-backed trade credits, or regional clearinghouses.

Both trends feed into what analysts describe as the early stages of a financial system reset — one where energy flows dictate monetary architecture more than ever.

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

30+ Countries Join BRICS Gold Rush

Central banks shift reserves from Treasuries to tangible assets — gold hits record highs amid global realignment.

Central Banks Lead the Shift

The global financial landscape is undergoing a quiet but profound transformation.
As gold prices surpassed $4,300 per ounce in mid-October 2025 — their highest level on record — more than 30 nations have accelerated gold purchases, signaling a decisive move away from dollar-denominated reserves.

According to the World Gold Council (WGC) and The Economic Times, central banks now hold approximately 36,344 metric tons of gold, valued around $4.5 trillion — exceeding their combined holdings of U.S. Treasury securities for the first time since 1996.
This symbolic milestone marks a historic rebalancing of global wealth.

“We are witnessing a structural realignment of reserve management,” notes the WGC’s latest quarterly report.

The BRICS Core and Beyond

The BRICS bloc — Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa — holds roughly 20% of global gold reserves, with Russia and China together accounting for nearly three-quarters of the group’s total.
These two nations alone control more than 4,600 tonnes, underscoring their central role in the de-dollarization movement.

Beyond the core bloc, more than 30 other countries have joined the gold accumulation trend:

Poland added nearly 90 tonnes in 2024, reaching over 500 tonnes in 2025, leading global central bank purchases.

China’s reserves rose to about 2,294 tonnes by April 2025 after 18 months of consecutive buying.

Kazakhstan reversed prior sales, adding nearly 25 tonnes in 2025.

Azerbaijan’s State Oil Fund (SOFAZ) expanded holdings by 18.7 tonnes in Q1 2025.


Smaller accumulators — Egypt, Kyrgyz Republic, Qatar, Oman — each added between 1–4 tonnes in 2025, diversifying beyond traditional assets.

Gold’s Record-Breaking Run

Gold’s rally has been one of the most dramatic since 1979.
The metal crossed $4,000 per ounce on October 8, and by October 17, hit an intraday high of $4,310, according to Reuters.

Year-to-date, gold has gained over 55%, outperforming equities, oil, and most sovereign debt indices.

Analysts link this momentum to a combination of:

• Lower real yields as the Federal Reserve signals rate cuts below 4%.

• Persistent inflation concerns and geopolitical fragmentation.

• Central bank diversification from “sanction-vulnerable” reserves to physical assets.

Strategic Motives: Security Over Liquidity

The BRICS gold accumulation accelerated after Western nations froze an estimated $300 billion in Russian reserves in 2022.
This event exposed the vulnerability of digital reserves and foreign-held assets.
Unlike currency reserves, gold stored domestically cannot be sanctioned or seized, making it an appealing hedge for emerging economies seeking monetary autonomy.

Meanwhile, China’s Cross-Border Interbank Payment System (CIPS) — an alternative to SWIFT — now includes 1,421 banks in 110 countries, supporting the idea of a multi-polar financial network and potentially paving the way for a gold-backed settlement mechanism within BRICS trade channels.

A Long-Term Structural Shift

The ongoing reserve restructuring signals a deep and likely irreversible trend:

• Central banks have purchased over 1,000 tonnes annually for three consecutive years — twice the decade average.

• The value of official gold holdings now exceeds the combined U.S. Treasury exposure in central bank portfolios.

• Gold-backed ETFs have added over 600 tonnes in 2025, with inflows exceeding $30 billion in Q1 alone.

Analysts describe this not as a temporary rally but a “structural realignment of global reserves.”

Implications: Toward a Parallel Monetary Order

This gold-driven reserve expansion dovetails with the BRICS agenda to build alternative financial frameworks independent of Western clearing systems.
While a full “gold-backed BRICS currency” remains speculative, the underlying behavior — sovereigns accumulating hard assets — demonstrates a gradual pivot from trust-based finance to asset-backed credibility.

The implications are sweeping:

• The U.S. dollar’s dominance in global settlements may gradually erode.

• Emerging economies gain stronger negotiating leverage within trade and credit systems.

• Gold re-emerges as both a political and monetary tool — not just a commodity hedge.

The Bottom Line

As the world’s monetary map redraws itself, the BRICS gold rush is less about speculation and more about sovereignty and control.
From Warsaw to Beijing, the signal is unmistakable: hard assets are once again the foundation of power.

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

Greg Hunter with Bo Polny: Silver and Gold Record Highs Continue and No War

10-16-2025

By Greg Hunter’s USAWatchdog.com  (Updated)

A little more than a month ago on USAWatchdog, Biblical cycle timing expert, geopolitical and financial analyst Bo Polny said, “Silver, this time around, is not just going to go through $50 per ounce, it’s going to go through it like a hot knife through butter.” 

With more than a 20% rise in the last 30 days alone, Polny was right.  (Silver was around $40 per ounce on 9/10 when Polny made his call.  

It’s now more than $53 an ounce as I write this.  Silver is up 80% since the beginning of 20025!)  Polny is still predicting a “Silver Explosion Kills Babylon’s Financial System.”  You ain’t seen nothing yet. 

Polny explains, “All you have is digits.  Go into your bank, and if you have six digits in your bank account, try to pull out $100,000.  They will say, ‘no way.’  They won’t let you pull out $100,000.  They don’t have it in the account.  This is called a bank run. 

 We are about to see bank runs.  We are starting to see bank runs on silver. . .. In 1980, silver touched $49 and change.  In 2011, it was the same thing.  It’s never ever touched $50 per ounce.  It just did that last week, and it went through $50. 

It’s going to battle at $50 and pull back, and then it is going to explode.  It’s going to explode and freak people out.  Then we are going to see bank runs and people lining up to get gold and silver and specifically silver.  It is going to get sold out everywhere. .

Silver is the marker for the Jubilee. . .. Silver is the marker for the takedown of Babylon. . .. Silver is still the greatest buy in human history.  It’s super cheap right now.  Why? 

 Money creation, let that sink in. . ..  In the 1970’s, you could buy a new car for $3,000 or $4,000.  They have created money out of thin air, and now, the entire world is enslaved. . .. The system is a total fraud.  They have created money like lunatics out of thin air.”

Polny also says, “Bitcoin has just made a reversal, and it will make new all-time highs, big all-time highs.  We are going to see a powerful move to the upside, and it will cause XRP to go up with it. 

Many other coins are going to go totally vertical with it.  We get a very big move to the upside, and then we get a top. . .. The prophecy says ‘they fall in fall.’ 

 There is going to be a very big market crash in Bitcoin.  It’s not going to be this month, but there is going to be a very big drop as we come into the end of the year.  This starts in November on crypto and the stock market. . ..

What is not going to be dropping are precious metals, silver and gold.  I said silver had to get through $50, and then there would be an explosion.  The explosion will take it to crazy numbers. 

If silver is exploding, guess what gold is doing?  Exploding.  Gold is going to explode, but silver will explode more percentage wise.  Silver is in a pattern of outperforming gold, and it all started on April 21.”

Polny studies Biblical time calculations to predict big turns coming.  Polny says, “All the math is pointing to the 31st of October as a very important time point. 

Something big is going to unfold at the end of October into the beginning of November.”

There is much more in the 93-minute in-depth interview.

Nader From The Mid East  This is my opinion...If they delete the zeros, they're going to put it on Forex 1 to 1 and they're going to let it float from there.  It's not going to float at .0007.  When you see that 1 to 1 on Forex that means it's floating already.

Militia Man  You should know from yesterday there was hints of good news about deletion of the zeros.  Turns out it wasn't fake news...there's a lot of credibility to some of these things that came out  and there's even more of it today to support that.
