Gyeongju APEC Summit: South Korea Bridges East and West
Diplomacy meets economics as Seoul positions itself between Washington, Beijing, and ASEAN
As the APEC Summit convenes this week in Gyeongju, South Korea, the host nation is advancing a policy of “bridge diplomacy” — a balancing act between the United States, China, Japan, and ASEAN nations. President Lee Jae-myung’s administration aims to transform South Korea into a neutral mediator linking advanced economies with the developing Asia-Pacific bloc.
Good Evening Dinar Recaps,
Gyeongju APEC Summit: South Korea Bridges East and West
Diplomacy meets economics as Seoul positions itself between Washington, Beijing, and ASEAN
As the APEC Summit convenes this week in Gyeongju, South Korea, the host nation is advancing a policy of “bridge diplomacy” — a balancing act between the United States, China, Japan, and ASEAN nations. President Lee Jae-myung’s administration aims to transform South Korea into a neutral mediator linking advanced economies with the developing Asia-Pacific bloc.
The Core Themes
Economic coordination: APEC’s agenda includes digital trade frameworks, clean-energy transition, and investment in resilient supply chains.
Security meets commerce: Behind the scenes, the summit is expected to feature quiet talks between U.S. and Chinese delegates — a prelude to more formal trade normalization efforts.
ASEAN alignment: The APEC initiative directly supports ASEAN 2025, aimed at integrating Southeast Asia’s supply chains with broader Pacific trade systems.
Why It Matters
Diplomatic repositioning: Seoul’s bridge role reflects a shift toward multipolar diplomacy, reducing binary East-West confrontation.
Financial ripple effect: Integration across APEC and ASEAN could redirect capital flows from Western debt markets into infrastructure, logistics, and digital finance projects spanning Asia and Oceania.
The Strategic Link to the Financial Reset
As APEC and ASEAN deepen coordination, a new financial framework is emerging — one that may complement BRICS initiatives while offering an alternate venue for global investment.
South Korea’s diplomatic balancing act could lay the groundwork for a dual-system world, where the Western-led monetary order coexists with a new Asia-centric trade-finance nexus.
This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

BRICS Grain Power Move: Russia’s Pilot Exchange Challenges U.S. Commodity Dominance
How a 2026 pilot could rewrite global food pricing and accelerate financial realignment.
Overview
Russia is preparing a pilot launch for the BRICS Grain Exchange by 2026 — a bold initiative aimed at breaking the Chicago Mercantile Exchange’s (CME) monopoly over global grain pricing. The project, endorsed at the 2024 BRICS Summit in Kazan, has broad support from member states including India, Brazil, and China, with full implementation targeted for 2027.
The move aligns with BRICS’ broader strategy to create independent market infrastructure — reducing reliance on Western financial systems and aligning food security with de-dollarization.
Key Developments
Putin’s Endorsement: At the Kazan summit, President Vladimir Putin emphasized that BRICS nations produce nearly half of global grain and should therefore determine their own benchmark prices.
“The exchange will contribute to fair and predictable price indicators… and protect national markets from artificial shortages,” said Putin.
Strategic Scale:
The expanded BRICS bloc now accounts for roughly 44% of global grain production and consumption.
The exchange’s projected trading volume could exceed $1 trillion, according to Eduard Zernin, head of the Russian Union of Grain Exporters.
Technical Framework:
The platform will use a digital marketplace model rather than a traditional exchange format.
Discussions are underway to finalize settlement mechanisms — possibly using a BRICS digital currency or a gold-linked unit of account.
India’s Role:
India supports the initiative as part of its drive toward food sovereignty and reduced dependence on Western commodity benchmarks. It also views the exchange as a regional export and pricing hub for farmers.
Why It Matters
Eroding Western Pricing Control:
The CME and Euronext currently set nearly all global grain benchmarks — even for commodities they produce little of. This system gives the U.S. and EU indirect control over food security and inflation trends worldwide.Financial Realignment:
The BRICS Grain Exchange would represent one of the first non-Western commodity markets of scale, potentially denominated outside the dollar system.
🌱 If successful, it could set a precedent for similar energy, metals, and digital-asset exchanges — forming the backbone of a new “BRICS Financial Architecture.”De-dollarization through Commodities:
Food and energy are the pillars of global trade. Pricing either outside the U.S. dollar would undermine the petrodollar structure and strengthen multipolar trade settlements.Strategic Leverage:
Controlling agricultural benchmarks gives BRICS new leverage in negotiating sanctions, tariffs, and trade routes — shifting power from financial centers like Chicago and London to new hubs in Kazan, Mumbai, and São Paulo.
Geopolitical Context
The timing coincides with U.S. tariff hikes and rising food insecurity in developing nations — both accelerating the BRICS rollout.
The exchange is part of a broader sovereign resilience strategy, mirroring the BRICS Pay system, New Development Bank, and the Cross-Border Settlement Platform.
Analysts note that this may tighten South-South trade corridors and integrate agricultural policy into the same multipolar structure reshaping global finance.
Implications for the Global Financial Reset
A functioning BRICS Grain Exchange could reshape commodity-derived currency reserves, as nations peg their reserves to a new grain-based or gold-linked benchmark.
This could catalyze the next phase of the financial reset — where value is defined by production and real assets, not speculative capital flows.
It signals a systemic decoupling of East-South trade from the dollar system — the cornerstone of post-WWII financial order.
This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

Catfish Scams — How To Spot Red Flags

Missouri woman's late-in-life love story turns into a Ramsey Show warning about catfish scams — how to spot red flags
Nicky from Missouri called into the The Ramsey Show with a late-in-life love tale. (1) She, a 68-year-old widow, has met a man, an 81-year-old widower, who wants to marry her. At first it seems like a heart-warming story, but when co-hosts hosts Jade Warshaw and Ken Coleman started asking questions, things went sideways fast.
Nicky started asking if she should mix her finances with her new suitor. She indicated her savings were much larger than his. The co-hosts asked how they met, and she told them that they had met on Facebook in a group for widows and widowers. They bonded when he told her about a woman he had been seeing. He was giving her money, and even though he supposedly has a pension that pays over $100,000 per year, Nicky felt she was taking advantage of him. The relationship apparently ended soon afterward, and Nicky ended up as his new lady.
She then admitted she’d never seen him face to face. In fact, he lives six hours away. Wedding bells turned to alarm bells as Jade and Ken pulled more suspicious details out of her.
When they expressed dismay at the idea that she’d even think about marrying a man sight-unseen, she said “he is too open and honest!”
Coleman laid it all on the table: “Nicky, you have a hook in both sides of your mouth right now, and this needs to stop.”
Without proof to the contrary, he suggested she might be the victim of a catfish or romance scam.
Scams Preying On The Elderly Are Common
Romance scams are a big slice of the fraud problem for older adults. The FBI’s 2024 Internet Crime Report shows people 60 and over filed 147,127 complaints with reported losses of about $4.8 billion. Confidence and romance fraud alone accounted for 7,632 of those complaints and $389 million in losses.

Expect Run To Gold, Not Dollars, In Coming Crisis | Matthew Piepenberg
Expect Run To Gold, Not Dollars, In Coming Crisis | Matthew Piepenberg
Liberty and Finance: 10-25-2025
Matthew Piepenburg of Von Greyerz joins Elijah K. Johnson to explain why the world is preparing for a very different kind of crisis than 2008.
Piepenburg argues that the next “uh-oh moment” in markets won’t trigger a flight to U.S. Treasuries or the dollar—but rather to gold. He contrasts views from analysts like Brent Johnson, explaining why even with a stronger DXY, gold could still rise.
Expect Run To Gold, Not Dollars, In Coming Crisis | Matthew Piepenberg
Liberty and Finance: 10-25-2025
Matthew Piepenburg of Von Greyerz joins Elijah K. Johnson to explain why the world is preparing for a very different kind of crisis than 2008.
Piepenburg argues that the next “uh-oh moment” in markets won’t trigger a flight to U.S. Treasuries or the dollar—but rather to gold. He contrasts views from analysts like Brent Johnson, explaining why even with a stronger DXY, gold could still rise.
Piepenburg also warns against waiting for the perfect entry point, saying long-term investors should focus on wealth preservation, not short-term price moves.
The ground beneath our global economy is shifting. Whispers of a looming market correction or even a full-blown credit crisis are growing louder, prompting investors to re-evaluate their traditional safe havens.
In a recent insightful discussion hosted by Elijah K. Johnson of Liberty and Finance, Matthew Piepenberg of Von Greer’s Gold offered a compelling perspective on the future of precious metals, particularly gold and silver, in this evolving landscape.
Piepenberg’s core message is clear: we are witnessing a secular bull market in gold, a long-term trend that remains firmly intact despite any short-term price volatility. He urges investors to shift their mindset, viewing gold not as a speculative commodity to be traded on daily swings, but as a strategic store of value, an asset to be held for decades, akin to a generational inheritance of wealth.
The macroeconomic forces at play are undeniable and paint a picture that strongly favors precious metals. Soaring US debt levels, the relentless debasement of fiat currencies, and a world increasingly navigating geopolitical complexities are collectively fueling a historic pivot towards gold. The traditional safe havens – the US dollar and treasury bonds – are facing unprecedented scrutiny.
A central theme of the discussion is the erosion of the US dollar’s purchasing power. Piepenberg highlights a growing global sentiment for a move away from the dollar and towards gold. This isn’t just theoretical; it’s evidenced by the significant accumulation of gold reserves by central banks worldwide. Furthermore, the very idea of gold-backed US treasury securities is now being openly discussed, a stark indicator of the shifting monetary paradigms.
The conversation even delved into the possibility of a gold revaluation by the US Treasury. Such a move, which would significantly increase the official price of gold, could be a strategy to grapple with the nation’s mounting debt. While speculative, it underlines the growing recognition of gold’s intrinsic monetary value.
The “exorbitant privilege” the US dollar has enjoyed as the world’s reserve currency is now under a microscope. Piepenberg points out its paradoxical effects, contributing to chronic trade deficits and the offshoring of manufacturing. As this privilege wanes, a multipolar global currency system is emerging, and gold is poised to play a pivotal role within it.
This raises a critical question for investors: will the US dollar and treasuries truly remain safe havens in the face of future crises? Piepenberg argues that while they may have served this purpose in the past, gold is increasingly becoming the preferred refuge for those seeking genuine security.
For those looking to navigate these turbulent economic waters, Piepenberg offers practical advice: focus on the long-term preservation of wealth. This means prioritizing physical precious metals and measuring your financial success not in the fluctuating units of fiat currency, but in the tangible ounces and grams of gold and silver.
He encourages investors to educate themselves about the historical cycles of currency debasement and to understand the unique, time-tested attributes of gold as a monetary asset. In an era of unprecedented economic uncertainty, understanding the power and potential of precious metals is not just prudent, it’s essential for safeguarding your financial future.

Wed. 22 Oct. 2025 GCR INTEL DOSSIER | OPERATION SANDMAN IGNITED: Collapse of the US Dollar
100+ nations have (allegedly) activated a coordinated strike to collapse the dollar and trigger the Global Currency Reset. “Project Sandman” is real — a silent alliance(allegedly) prepared to dump the U.S. dollar simultaneously, ending its reign as the world’s reserve currency overnight. Not gradually. Instant detonation.
For 50 years, the U.S. ruled through fiat counterfeiting, oil-backed deception, and military coercion. That system is(allegedly) dying. Every sign points to the imminent trigger. When it fires, the dollar — and all assets tied to it — plunge to near-zero. Treasury markets freeze. Bonds disintegrate. The Fed loses control. This is economic warfare, not speculation.
The Operation: Over a hundred nations — from BRICS, OPEC+, ASEAN, Africa, and South America — have agreed to abandon the dollar and redirect trade into gold, local currencies, or new quantum frameworks. Their weapon is abandonment. No bombs. No armies. Just withdrawal — and the empire burns from within.
The Petrodollar Collapse: The U.S. dollar’s fake power came from oil trade deals forcing nations to buy crude in USD. That’s over. When oil producers stop demanding dollars, global demand dies instantly. Sandman’s precision strike floods markets with abandoned dollars, unleashing uncontrollable inflation and panic.
Within hours of activation: Retirement funds – gone. Stock markets – wiped. Real estate bubbles – burst. Middle class savings – destroyed.
It’s not a crash. It’s a collapse. A final act of justice after decades of dollar colonialism.
Trump’s Counterstrike: President Donald J. Trump foresaw this storm. He’s preparing the only response capable of saving America: – Reinstating a gold-backed U.S. currency – Launching a sovereign digital dollar – Cutting ties with the IMF, BIS, and WEF – Declaring economic martial law if needed
The objective: destroy the central bank cartel and restore constitutional money. This isn’t about markets — it’s about national survival.

Wed. 23 Oct. 2025 RV/GCR IGNITES: Tier 4B Shock – October 20 Breaks the Financial Dam
Tier 4B (allegedly) confirmed active. Dinar RV (allegedly) live. The Global Currency Reset has (allegedly) detonated — Sun. 20 Oct. 2025 marks the day the system(allegedly) flipped. Trump’s financial counterstrike is no longer theory. It’s execution.
THE IRAQI GAZETTE DETONATION Today the Iraqi Gazette (allegedly) printed the Tier 4B redemption sequence — official, irreversible, world-shaking. The Central Bank of Iraq(allegedly) released protocols for exchange centers, investor scheduling, and redemption flow. This is not rumor. This is the public green light — the one patriots waited years to see. Tier 4B means the people, not the elites. The system door has (allegedly) opened.
THE DINAR GOES LIVE The Iraqi Dinar is now (allegedly) visible on Bloomberg terminals and live trading screens worldwide — real bid/ask pricing. Mocked investors are now vindicated. The IQD has (allegedly) crossed from speculation to integration, a fully recognized financial asset watched by institutions and governments alike. This is the (allegedly) foundation stone of the GCR — the signal that the old order is collapsing.
MARKET SHOCKWAVES Major banks are (allegedly) rewriting models, compliance divisions are scrambling, and regulators are activating dormant RV protocols. Overnight, the Deep State(allegedly) lost control of the financial board. Chaos isn’t failure — it’s the reset mechanism. The people finally have leverage, and the cabal can’t hide it.
CONTROLLED VOLATILITY Early trades are unstable — spreads wide, liquidity partial. That’s intentional. Volatility hides the hand of institutional accumulation. This chaos is the firewall protecting elite entry while scaring retail holders away. But patriots understand: disorder precedes revelation.
THE RESET BEGINS IQD activation signals a full-scale global shift. Central banks are (allegedly) realigning, USD dependency is (allegedly) crumbling, and the fiat empire is(allegedly) bleeding. Every trade in IQD cracks the foundation of globalist control. Soros’s crowd is watching in panic — the dollar wall is fracturing.
TRUMP’S COUNTERMOVE Trump’s alliance built the architecture behind the scenes. Starlink, Quantum channels, and sovereign clearing systems are now (allegedly) interlinked. The reset isn’t coming — it’s operational.
This is not about money — it’s about power. For the first time in modern history, that power is shifting back to the people. The lock is broken. The storm is financial. And Trump is (allegedly) holding the switch.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Fri. 24 Oct. 2025 THE DIGITAL RESET – THE GOOD KIND THE FUTURE OF WEALTH IS HERE
The U.S. National Debt Clock was designed to shame the system — now it’s becoming the people’s weapon. What once measured corruption now exposes the collapse of fake fiat and the birth of blockchain-backed wealth. The old system is crumbling. The new one is coded, collateralized, and (allegedly) controlled by patriots — not bankers.
THE PEOPLE’S DIGITAL REVOLUTION The Clock is transforming from a symbol of failure into the blueprint for a sovereign economy. Tokenized assets. Transparent ledgers. Real ownership. The fake elites who thrived on debt and inflation are watching their empire burn while a new economy rises — one built by the people, for the people.
TOKENIZATION – THE END OF CENTRAL CONTROL Imagine dividing a house, a farm, or a gold vault into millions of digital tokens. Each token represents real ownership. No middlemen. No corruption. This is fractional freedom — turning real assets into digital power. Every American could hold a stake in the very ground of the nation.
BLOCKCHAIN – THE TRUST MACHINE Blockchain locks every transaction into an incorruptible public record. No hidden books. No erased debts. Every movement is verified across thousands of eyes. The system they used to enslave us becomes the system that sets us free.
THE SOVEREIGN WEALTH RESERVE This is the masterstroke — a citizen-owned digital reserve backed by real U.S. assets: land, gold, real estate, infrastructure. The new currency grows 3% annually, fueled by tangible value, not printed lies. Inflation dies when money is backed by reality.
COLLATERALIZED AMERICA A Variable Asset Leveling Index tracks every physical and digital asset of the United States. Tokenized. Audited. Transparent. Every dollar becomes proof of something real. Gold-backed, land-backed, people-backed — not Fed-backed.
THE REVOLUTION FROM DEBT TO OWNERSHIP The Federal Reserve’s empire was built on illusion. This is its end. The Debt Clock now counts down not to collapse — but to liberation. The time when every citizen holds a verifiable share of their nation. No more hidden hands. No more rigged markets. No more secret owners.

Militia Man Iraq is quietly moving into the modern financial world. I think we all know that...We believe it's loud in our faces, but globally it really isn't. Investment wise you can see the powerhouse data...Three things are happening at the same time. Iraq wants to join the Bank of International Settlements, which is the club of central banks...Iraq is planning to drop three zeros from the dinar, the currency redesign...Iraq is launching a digital dinar...
Mnt Goat I assure you of what my CBI contact told me is now all coming out in the news. It is undeniable now. So, let all the nay-sayers say what they want but this does not change the fact that we may be at the end of this RV saga and only just over a couple months to go.
Frank26 It turns out they're teaching the Iraqi citizens there is a new denomination, a new form of currency that is coming to them to represent the new exchange rate...They're showing them the lower notes but in a very unique manner...What you're seeing is the reveal of the monetary reform lower notes but it's being done like a snail walking across the table very slowly. This part has to go very slowly.

MP: The Parallel Market Is Behind The Rise In The Dollar Exchange Rate.
economy | 10/27/2025 Mawazine News - Baghdad - MP Moeen Al-Kadhimi confirmed that the rise in the dollar exchange rate is mainly due to the trend of most traders toward the parallel market (black market) to purchase hard currency to finance import operations.
Al-Kadhimi said, "Most traders resort to the parallel market to obtain dollars," indicating that "this trend has led to an increase in demand for the dollar on the black market, which has caused a significant rise in the exchange rate."
He added, "The solution requires the Central Bank and the Ministry of Finance to facilitate banking procedures for real traders and control the movement of funds through the official banking system to reduce the need for the parallel market," noting that "the continuation of this situation will lead to increased economic pressures and higher prices in local markets."
Al-Kadhimi concluded his remarks by stressing that "the Parliamentary Finance Committee is closely monitoring this issue and will work to find urgent solutions that ensure the stability of the exchange rate and protect consumers from the repercussions of the dollar's rise." https://www.mawazin.net/Details.aspx?jimare=269199
Trade: Iraq Seeks To Open Up To The Global Economy By Joining The WTO.

He pointed out that "Iraq officially resumed the accession negotiations process after a hiatus of more than 16 years. In July 2024, the third meeting of the working group concerned with Iraq's accession was held at the organization's headquarters in Geneva, headed by the Minister of Trade, who gave a comprehensive presentation on the ongoing economic and legislative reforms. This presentation was widely welcomed by member states, which praised Iraq's commitment to the requirements of full membership."
He added, "The Ministry, in cooperation with relevant government agencies, has completed the update of the customs tariff system to HS2022, in addition to preparing and amending a package of commercial laws and legislation, including intellectual property rights laws, commercial arbitration, technical standards, and regulations related to foreign trade. The Ministry of Finance is also working to complete the stages of approving the new customs system within the national legal framework."
The official spokesman explained that "Iraq participated for the first time in twenty years as an observer" in the 13th Ministerial Conference of the World Trade Organization (MC13), held in Abu Dhabi, stressing that this participation reflects the strong political support for the accession process and the government's will to accelerate structural economic reforms in line with the organization's requirements.
He added that "the National Committee and its subcommittees, after the last meeting, began updating the memorandum on the foreign trade system and submitting detailed answers to 175 questions" submitted by member states, in preparation for holding the fourth meeting of the working group during the next phase."
Hanoun concluded his statement by emphasizing that "the Ministry of Trade, under the direct guidance of the Prime Minister, is proceeding to complete all technical and legal requirements in cooperation with relevant ministries and agencies, with the goal of achieving Iraq's full membership in the World Trade Organization in the coming period, which will contribute to enhancing the competitiveness of the national economy and attracting foreign investment."https://www.mawazin.net/Details.aspx?jimare=269143

Gold Declines As The Dollar Rises Amid Easing US-China Tensions.
Economy | 09:28 - 10/27/2025 Mawazine News - Follow-up: Gold prices fell, affected by the strengthening US dollar and signs of easing trade tensions between the United States and China, at a time when investors are awaiting meetings of major central banks this week for signals on monetary policy.
Spot gold fell 0.7% to $4,082.77 per ounce by 01:58 GMT, while US gold futures for December delivery fell 1% to $4,095.80.
The US dollar rose to its highest level in more than two weeks against the yen, making gold more expensive for holders of other currencies.
Top US and Chinese economic officials agreed on Sunday on the framework for a trade deal, which President Donald Trump and his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping are scheduled to discuss later this week.
The Federal Reserve is widely expected to cut interest rates by a quarter percentage point at its meeting next Wednesday, buoyed by last Friday's weaker-than-expected inflation report, which typically boosts the appeal of non-yielding assets like gold.
Among other precious metals, spot silver fell 0.3% to $48.42 an ounce, while platinum rose 0.1% to $1,607.24, and palladium fell 0.2% to $1,426.06. https://www.mawazin.net/Details.aspx?jimare=269184

Global markets are entering what analysts increasingly describe as a structural turning point. Two developments — a U.S.–China trade thaw and the steady easing of inflation worldwide — are creating the conditions for a major financial realignment.
Together, they suggest that the turbulence of recent years may be giving way to a re-anchored global system built on pragmatic cooperation, diversified reserves, and new capital flows.
The Convergence: Trade + Inflation Reset
Trade optimism returns: Renewed diplomatic and economic talks between Washington and Beijing have reduced tariff fears and revived industrial demand.
Inflation cooling globally: Data from the U.S., Eurozone, and Asia show steady disinflation, giving policymakers room to pivot from restrictive to supportive stances.
Commodities and currencies reprice: Copper, oil, and industrial metals are firming; the yuan and other Asian currencies have strengthened on confidence in regional growth.
Investor behavior shifts: Portfolio flows are turning back toward equities and emerging markets after years of defensive positioning.
Why It Matters
Systemic implications: The simultaneous easing of inflation and trade tension could reset how capital moves across borders, challenging the dollar-centric dominance that defined the post-2008 era.
Corporate recalibration: Firms are beginning to rebuild global supply networks, reducing fragility and diversifying manufacturing bases — a structural change, not a short-term reaction.
Policy coordination: For the first time in years, major economies may find common ground between fiscal expansion and monetary flexibility.
In essence:
“This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.”
Emerging Signals of a New Order
Resurgent BRICS trade corridors gaining institutional depth through gold- and commodity-based settlements.
G7 central banks signaling gradual rate normalization while exploring multi-currency liquidity lines.
Digital asset integration accelerating as cross-border payment infrastructure modernizes.
These shifts suggest the world may be edging toward a blended system — one where legacy Western financial institutions coexist with new frameworks emerging from Asia and the Global South.
The Strategic Outlook
The months ahead will test whether optimism translates into sustained global rebalancing.
If trade détente endures and inflation stabilizes, the world could move toward a more multipolar but integrated financial landscape — one less dependent on unilateral policy, and more driven by pragmatic collaboration.
This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

Riyadh Hosts Global Alliance for Palestinian Two-State Solution
Middle East diplomacy regains momentum as Saudi Arabia steps into a leadership role
Riyadh this week hosted a Global Alliance coordination summit aimed at reviving the long-stalled Palestinian–Israeli two-state framework. Co-chaired by Saudi Arabia, Norway, and the European Union, the meeting brought together over 40 diplomatic envoys to discuss humanitarian support, reconstruction, and governance planning for a potential future Palestinian state.
Diplomatic Turning Point
Regional leadership shift: Saudi Arabia is asserting itself as a primary diplomatic hub, reshaping the balance once dominated by Western mediators.
Institutional framework: The alliance proposes a standing secretariat to manage aid, infrastructure, and economic development within Palestinian territories.
Peace through economics: Economic stabilization is seen as a prerequisite for security — a model already tested through the Abraham Accords and Gulf diversification strategies.
Why It Matters
Restructuring of alliances: The Riyadh meeting signals a multipolar approach to Middle East peace, blending Western, Arab, and European participation under a shared umbrella.
Financial architecture in motion: A two-state economic plan would require new financing channels — likely through BRICS-linked development banks or Gulf sovereign funds — bypassing older IMF/World Bank structures.
Strategic Implications
If the alliance holds, the economic underpinning of peace could integrate the Middle East into a broader Eurasian trade corridor — connecting Gulf capital, Asian infrastructure, and European technology.
This could realign financial flows toward energy-neutral development, a key element of the emerging post-dollar financial reset.
This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

“The System Is Ending” - Clive Thompson’s Final Warning on Gold & Fiat Collapse
“The System Is Ending” - Clive Thompson’s Final Warning on Gold & Fiat Collapse

“The System Is Ending” - Clive Thompson’s Final Warning on Gold & Fiat Collapse
ITM Trading: 10-26-2025
Clive Thompson, a former Swiss banker, shares hard-won lessons from decades on the inside: gold carried families through war, preserved wealth through collapse, and shielded everyday people through major crises.
Now, he’s warning that the fiat system is failing, and few are prepared.
In a world buzzing with fleeting trends and digital promises, some truths remain constant, shining brighter with each passing year. One such truth, the enduring value of gold, is championed by a man whose life has been inextricably woven with this precious metal for half a century:
Clive Thompson. A seasoned expert whose career has spanned from the trading floors of London to the secure vaults of Swiss private banking, Clive offers insights that are not just theoretical, but forged in the crucible of real-world experience.
Clive’s journey with gold began not in a bustling financial district, but with a simple yet profound lesson from his grandfather. Imagine being a child, presented with a choice: ephemeral paper money, fleeting chocolate, or a gleaming gold sovereign.
This early exercise in discernment laid the foundation for Clive’s lifelong understanding: gold possessed an intrinsic worth that paper currency, a mere promise, could never truly match. It was a tangible asset, a physical representation of value, even then.
From these formative lessons, Clive’s professional life unfurled, cementing his conviction. Decades spent navigating diverse financial landscapes – from the dynamic markets of London to the strategic havens of the Cayman Islands and the meticulous world of Swiss private banking – allowed him to witness firsthand gold’s unparalleled role as a “wealth shield.”
Through crises, wars, economic upheavals, and market volatility, gold consistently acted as an unflinching guardian of wealth, preserving fortunes when other assets faltered.
He recounts stories of clients who, guided by foresight or instinct, chose gold over precarious paper assets. Their enduring legacy often became the preservation of family wealth across generations, a testament to gold’s permanence. Clive vividly remembers the 2008 financial crisis, a pivotal moment when the sudden surge in demand for physical gold overwhelmed supply. This stark reality underscores a critical lesson: the time to own gold is before the panic, not during it.
What makes gold so resilient? Clive emphasizes its fundamental properties: liquidity, portability, and permanence.
Unlike the ephemeral whispers of fiat currencies, which throughout history have collapsed under the weight of their own making, gold remains. It’s a tangible asset that can be easily converted, moved, and, crucially, cannot be printed into oblivion by governments. It holds its value not by decree, but by millennia of human trust and inherent scarcity.
Clive’s insights extend beyond individual portfolios to the precarious state of the global financial system. He points to the staggering realities of soaring government debt, unchecked money printing, and inflating asset bubbles.
The pivotal moment, he argues, was the abandonment of the gold standard in 1971, which unleashed a torrent of unchecked fiat currency inflation, eroding purchasing power at an accelerating rate.
He warns that the current trajectory is unsustainable. The global financial system, built on layers of debt and manufactured money, is nearing a critical juncture.
When fiat currencies inevitably lose all their value – a historical pattern that repeats itself – gold, Clive asserts, will reclaim its rightful role as real money, the bedrock of financial stability.
For Clive Thompson, gold is not merely an investment; it is a permanent, private, and tangible form of wealth. It is protection against systemic risk and a legacy for future generations. It’s about securing what’s truly valuable when the illusion of paper wealth dissipates.
In a world teetering on the edge of a financial reset, Clive’s message is clear and urgent: prepare now. Don’t wait for the inevitable.
Ready to safeguard your future and understand the enduring power of gold? Watch the full video from ITM Trading for further insights from Clive Thompson, a man whose 50 years with gold speak volumes. The wisdom of experience is invaluable – especially when it comes to the future of your wealth.

Member: Good morning, Mark, mods, and fellow Dinarians
Member: Happy Marvelous Monday…… praying this is our week
Member: Nader posted a video saying the 50, 100 and 200 dinar notes are in circulation and the 1,5 and 10 dinar notes would be soon.
MZ: That would be accurate. We started seeing a lot more over the weekend. Stacks of the $50’s. (Mark shows a $50 note) It used to be rare to see one….now we are seeing stacks of them at banks and exchange areas. Which does not make much sense unless there is soon to be a value change.
Member: Frank said even coins are being shown to the Iraqi people as of yesterday…
Member: They showed the coins and lower denoms on the TV in Iraq Saturday
Member: Last night on Frank26 : IRAQ officially begins distributing lower denomination currency notes - SHAFAQ NEWS + fills ( coins )
MZ: I talked to MilitiaMan about this today . Why would they need a $50 dinar note worth about 3.8 cents US? But suddenly over the weekend we had something change. We started seeing stacks of these at larger stores and money exchange locations. So they are putting these out to be widely circulated. Maybe they are getting people used to seeing them in circulation before the revaluation? Now they are again talking about 1,s, 5;s, 10,s and 20;s.
MZ: The $50 dinar note would be a great bridge while they roll out the other lower denominations and the coins. Coins make no sense at all unless there is a value change unbound.
Member: Mnt Goat (From Dinar Guru) Article: “NO OBSTACLES IN WAY OF WITHDRAWING OIL REVENUES FROM US BANKS” ...the interesting part about the article is it finishes with talk of removing the zeros...if we take what they just said to us in these recent articles about deleting the zeros it appears to me, and was confirmed to me on Wednesday by my CBI contact that the CBI is going to fund the 2026 budget with the reinstatement and new rate.
MZ: That would fit with what I am hearing…if they want to pass the budget now…they need to revalue npw.
Member: Once Iraq commits to deleting zeros the reinstatement would be quick to ensure stability. But its the stability that brings revaluation. How long might that take reaching REER? (Real Effective Exchange Rate)
Member: Hopefully at the same time
Member: Does iraq need to be in the wto to revalue thanks
Member: I think Iraq needs to revalue in order to be in the WTO!
MZ: “Make Iraq Great Again-Trumps new slogan for Iraq” This is hitting the news and becoming popular in Iraq. One of the ways They would achieve this is a new rate.
MZ: “ Al Alaq: Rafidain Bank adopts the latest electronic payment technology” Another part of the white paper reforms so they can lift the purchasing power of Iraqis.
MZ: “A historical look at Iraq’s coins and banknotes” this is a fantastic one showing coins and currency over the years….this is a great history lesson.
Member: Mark did you hear back from your bond person if they got spendable $$
MZ: My bond person showed up at the bank this morning …the payout is still “pending” and the bank told them they expected it to be released today. He is keeping an eye on it every hour. If I hear he has the full release of funds – I will post it at Truth and Twitter(X)
MZ: Another bond folks…a bigger bond holder with a paymaster has an appointment tomorrow on Tuesday to follow up on last weeks meeting. They think they are going to have dollars. So we will be watching there as well.
Member: if the bond contact money go through does that mean anything for us? Or is it just yet another person getting paid and us not going?
Member: When Historic bonds go…Mark was told we are next in line….its a indicator on timing.
Member: Quick question. With the bond contact watching transfer on Friday and needing to wait until Monday for liquidity it seems as if the payment is in fiat .
Member: Most of the bond money and the payouts like CMKX , fines and penalties, and Prosperity Packages are supposed to be paid in fiat. Then it is supposed to be an RV (Revaluation) and the balance paid in asset backed.
Member: Even if we get paid in fiat….when the financial system changes to gold/asset backed our funds will automatically roll over to new currency …imo
Member: Show me the gold backed real money
Member: Reno is hopping right now with private planes
Member: Trump said he might extend his Asian trip. Maybe that is to accommodate the RV.
MZ: Mr. C had said last week that he heard a RUMOR that they may visit him on this Thursday…and he will wait and see. He hopes it is accurate.
Mr. Cottrell joins the stream to repeat this rumor
Mr. C: Yes there was a rumor from 2 different sources that it would happen this Thursday. Like all other rumors the last 30 years…I take it with a grain of salt. It would be nice if it happened…but, we will see. When It happens – you will know.
MZ: And I have heard a lot of rumors about Oct. 30th…It would be an ideal time.
Member: Keeping fingers crossed that this is our week!

“Tidbits From TNT” Monday 10-27-2025
TNT:
Tishwash: Expert: Iraqi banks are required to keep pace with cross-border payments
A banking expert confirmed that the recent development in international payment systems using the digital renminbi represents a strategic turning point in global trade, and opens new horizons for import, export and foreign loan settlements.
Expert Faiq Al-Obaidi told (Al-Zaman) yesterday that (this development requires Iraqi banking administrations to quickly keep pace with the new system and provide intensive training on its working mechanisms, to ensure the banks' ability to deal efficiently with cross-border digital payments

Tishwash: Expert: Iraqi banks are required to keep pace with cross-border payments
A banking expert confirmed that the recent development in international payment systems using the digital renminbi represents a strategic turning point in global trade, and opens new horizons for import, export and foreign loan settlements.
Expert Faiq Al-Obaidi told (Al-Zaman) yesterday that (this development requires Iraqi banking administrations to quickly keep pace with the new system and provide intensive training on its working mechanisms, to ensure the banks' ability to deal efficiently with cross-border digital payments
Al-Obaidi explained that (the monetary authority is required to issue clear instructions and controls, and grant approvals to banks participating in the new system, especially since most Iraqi banks have taken the initiative to open accounts in Chinese currency Which prepares the financial infrastructure to benefit from this digital revolution).
The People's Bank of China announced that the digital renminbi (Chinese yuan) cross-border settlement system will be fully linked with the ten member states of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations and six countries in the Middle East.Observers believed yesterday that (38 percent of the volume of global trade will exceed the SWIFT system, which is dominated by the United States, and the system will enter directly into what they described as the digital renminbi moment).
For its part, The Economist magazine said yesterday that (this step constitutes a battle for the front bulwark of the Bretton Woods 2.0 system), adding that (blockchain-based technology is rewriting the basic code of the global economy, while increasing settlement speed and reducing costs in an unprecedented way), and explained that (the traditional SWIFT system suffers from a delay of 3 to 5 days in cross-border payments, While the Chinese digital bridge reduced the settlement time to only 7 seconds).
In the first test between Hong Kong and Abu Dhabi, a company paid a supplier in the Middle East using the digital renminbi, and the money did not pass through six intermediary banks, but was received directly through a distributed ledger, reducing processing fees by 98 percent.
In a two-country, two-park project between China and Indonesia, an industrial bank used digital renminbi to complete the first cross-border payment, and the process took just 8 seconds from order confirmation to funds arriving, 100 times faster than traditional methods.
This technical superiority prompted 23 central banks around the world to join the digital bridge test, with energy traders in the Middle East reducing settlement costs by 75 percent.
Experts confirmed yesterday that (this technical superiority made the traditional settlement system dominated by the dollar appear immediately backward, and that the technology not only allows immediate tracking, but also automatically applies anti-money laundering rules), and they pointed out that (China is gradually building its financial sovereignty), and they added (when the United States tried to impose sanctions on Iran through the SWIFT system, China had already established a closed loop of renminbi payments in Southeast Asia.
The volume of cross-border settlement in renminbi in ASEAN countries amounted to more than 5.8 trillion yuan in 2024, an increase of 120 percent compared to 2021, while ix countries, including Malaysia and Singapore, included the renminbi in their foreign currency reserves, and Thailand completed its first oil deal using the digital renminbi.
According to the circulated data, (the wave of eliminating the dominance of the dollar prompted the Bank for International Settlements to say that China is redefining the rules of the game in the era of digital currencies), and the data pointed out that (the digital renminbi is not just a payment tool, but rather carries the Chinese Belt and Road strategy), stressing that (in projects such as the China-Laos Railway and the Jakarta-Bandung Railway, the digital renminbi has been integrated with the navigation system),
Emphasizing that (European car companies use the digital renminbi to settle shipping via the polar route, while China increases trade efficiency by 400 percent), and pointing out that (this strategy makes the dominance of the US dollar systematically threatened for the first time), the data stressed that (87 percent of the world's countries have completed adapting their systems to the digital renminbi, and the volume of cross-border payments has exceeded 1.$2 trillion, and China has built a digital payments network covering 200 countries, concluding that this silent financial revolution is not just monetary sovereignty, but determines who controls the lifeblood of the global economy in the future. link

Rafidain Bank announced on Sunday that its partnership with the Central Bank and the Payments Council represents a successful model for managing financial transformation, while indicating its commitment to moving towards an integrated digital financial system.

According to the statement, Al-Fatlawi said, "The bank is proceeding with confident strides in its strategic partnership with the Central Bank and the National Payments Council to develop the digital payments infrastructure and consolidate the transition towards a national economy based on financial inclusion and technological innovation."

He explained that "the bank attaches great importance to developing the technological infrastructure of its banking systems, enhancing cybersecurity and data protection, and spreading the culture of financial awareness among citizens, especially youth and students, as they are the targeted generation for the transition to digital banking services."
He pointed out that "the close partnership between the Central Bank, the Payments Council, and Rafidain Bank represents a successful model of institutional integration in managing financial and digital transformation in Iraq," stressing that "the bank will continue to play its leading role in empowering the national banking sector and expanding the base of financial inclusion, thus enhancing economic stability and serving sustainable development." link

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,
Global Equities Surge on U.S.–China Trade Optimism
Markets rally worldwide as investors sense a thaw in global tensions
Global markets opened the week with strong momentum as optimism grew over renewed trade cooperation between the United States and China. Hints of a potential trade framework — coupled with encouraging inflation data — have pushed investors back into equities and risk assets.
Good Morning Dinar Recaps,
Global Equities Surge on U.S.–China Trade Optimism
Markets rally worldwide as investors sense a thaw in global tensions
Global markets opened the week with strong momentum as optimism grew over renewed trade cooperation between the United States and China. Hints of a potential trade framework — coupled with encouraging inflation data — have pushed investors back into equities and risk assets.
Key Market Movements
Asia leads the charge: Japan’s Nikkei 225 surged over 2.5%, and South Korea’s KOSPI rose nearly 3%, buoyed by tech-sector strength.
European indexes followed suit, with the FTSE 100 and DAX climbing as investors rotated out of defensive positions.
Gold and bonds declined, signaling a return of risk appetite.
Currencies shifted: the Chinese yuan strengthened, while the U.S. dollar was mixed across major pairs.
Commodities such as copper rose on expectations of increased industrial demand.
Why It Matters
Trade thaw = global growth pulse: Reducing U.S.–China trade risk restores confidence in supply chains, manufacturing, and corporate investment.
Capital flow rotation: Investors are moving from safe havens into growth assets — a structural signal of shifting global sentiment.
Global Financial Reset connection: The emerging trade détente is more than diplomacy — it’s part of a restructuring of the global financial architecture:
“This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.”
The Bigger Picture
If sustained, trade normalization could help rebuild global capital flows, re-anchor commodity pricing, and boost confidence in emerging markets. But the rally’s durability hinges on whether promises translate into formal agreements and continued inflation moderation.
This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

Year-End Outlook Brightens: Inflation Eases, Trade Progress Lifts Confidence
Analysts forecast a strong finish to 2025 as twin headwinds subside
After months of uncertainty, two major drivers — softening inflation and trade détente — are reshaping the global outlook. Market sentiment has shifted decisively toward optimism as investors anticipate policy easing and stronger earnings growth heading into year-end.
Key Indicators Supporting the Rally
Inflation cools: U.S. CPI and European inflation prints both came in below forecasts, reinforcing expectations of central bank rate cuts.
Trade relief: U.S.–China negotiations appear to be advancing, calming fears of tariff escalation and supply bottlenecks.
Corporate outlook improves: Multinationals are revising forward guidance upward as input costs decline.
Emerging-market capital inflows are accelerating, reflecting renewed confidence in cross-border growth.
Why It Matters
Policy flexibility returns: Lower inflation gives central banks space to pivot toward growth-supportive stances.
Stronger global linkages: Fewer trade barriers encourage capital mobility and resource reallocation — a hallmark of systemic realignment.
RESET connection: Together, inflation moderation and trade cooperation mark a shift in the monetary order, supporting your consistent theme:
“This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.”
Risks to Watch
Persistent services inflation could stall policy easing.
Trade deals may face political delays or reversals ahead of election cycles.
Market optimism may be overextended if corporate earnings fail to justify valuations.
Strategic View
The alignment of easing inflation and improved trade conditions suggests a foundation for a more balanced, multipolar financial system. For investors, it signals a likely shift from defensive strategies toward innovation, infrastructure, and resource assets that benefit from global reintegration.
This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.
