Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

Trump Signals Progress in U.S.-Iran Talks as Markets Rally on Peace Hopes

Overview

President Trump expressed optimism about ongoing U.S.-Iran negotiations in Qatar, describing recent meetings as productive.
Markets responded immediately, with oil prices declining while cryptocurrencies and other risk assets gained.
Investors are increasingly betting that the current 60-day negotiation period will be extended as diplomacy continues.

Key Developments

1. Trump Reports Positive Momentum

President Donald Trump said negotiations with Iran are progressing well, stating that relations have been positive and that discussions on Iran's nuclear program are moving in the right direction. U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff and other American officials continue technical negotiations in Qatar with mediation support from Qatar and Pakistan.

2. Diplomacy Focuses on Long-Term Peace

The current negotiations build upon the interim ceasefire agreement reached last month. Discussions continue to focus on regional security, the future management of the Strait of Hormuz, and broader efforts to reduce tensions across the Middle East.

3. Financial Markets React Immediately

Investor sentiment improved following Trump's comments. WTI crude oil fell below $70 per barrel, reflecting expectations of improving energy supplies, while cryptocurrencies and other risk assets posted gains as investors priced in reduced geopolitical uncertainty.

4. Markets Price in Higher Odds of Ceasefire Extension

Prediction markets increased the probability that the current 60-day negotiation period will be extended. While optimism has grown, investors remain cautious because any setback in negotiations could quickly reverse recent market gains.

5. Final Agreement Still Faces Challenges

Despite encouraging diplomatic signals, negotiators still face significant differences over nuclear issues, sanctions, regional security arrangements, and the long-term governance of the Strait of Hormuz before a permanent agreement can be reached.

Why It Matters

Progress in U.S.-Iran negotiations has implications far beyond the Middle East. A lasting agreement could improve global energy security, stabilize financial markets, reduce geopolitical risk, and strengthen confidence in international trade routes that are critical to the world economy.

Why It Matters to Foreign Currency Holders

Currency markets often respond quickly to geopolitical developments. Greater stability in the Middle East can reduce market volatility, improve investor confidence, and influence capital flows, commodity prices, and central bank policy—all factors that foreign currency holders closely monitor.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar 2 – Trade

Reduced tensions around the Strait of Hormuz strengthen one of the world's most important energy and shipping corridors, supporting global trade and supply chain stability.

Pillar 5 – Energy

Improved diplomatic relations increase the likelihood of more stable global oil supplies, helping moderate energy price volatility and supporting long-term energy security.

Future Outlook

Negotiators are expected to continue technical discussions in Qatar over the coming days. Markets will closely watch whether both sides can extend the current negotiation period and make measurable progress toward resolving disputes involving sanctions, nuclear oversight, and maritime security. While optimism has improved, the durability of any agreement will ultimately depend on successful implementation and continued diplomatic engagement.

This is not just about diplomacy—it reflects broader efforts to stabilize global energy markets, protect international trade routes, and reduce geopolitical risks that influence the world economy.

Why China Just Overtook The US With The Most Powerful Supercomputer

Notes From the Field By James Hickman (Simon Black / Sovereign Man) July 1, 2026

Yao Tongbin was one of the most important scientists in Maoist China. He had earned a doctorate in metallurgy in England, spent three years at a research institute in West Germany, and left it all to return to China in 1957.

He spent he next 11 years building China’s first-ever modern missile program, with unparalleled knowledge and experience he had accumulated in the West.

Why China Just Overtook The US With The Most Powerful Supercomputer

Notes From the Field By James Hickman (Simon Black / Sovereign Man) July 1, 2026

He spent he next 11 years building China’s first-ever modern missile program, with unparalleled knowledge and experience he had accumulated in the West.

But when he came home for lunch on the afternoon of June 8, 1968, a gang of thugs from a rival political faction was waiting for him. They beat him to death in his own apartment. He was forty-five years old.

Yao’s crime was that he was educated, expert, and Western-trained— exactly the kind of man that Mao’s Cultural Revolution had taught the country to hate.

From 1966 to 1976, Mao turned China against its own educated class, rooting out political opposition and handing a the power to young revolutionaries.

Professors were dragged before their students in dunce caps and beaten mercilessly. Universities shut their doors. Millions of educated young people were shipped off to work camps. And engineers were ranked near the bottom of the social order.

China spent ten years treating intelligence as a crime, and the country paid the price for a generation.

Meanwhile, over in the West at the same time that Mao's Red Guards were beating engineers to death, American technological geniuses developed the world's first microprocessor and lit up the first nodes of the internet... effectively giving birth to the digital age.

It was a night-and-day difference between the US and China. China was actively, stupidly making itself worse off, while the US was developing the technology that would change the world forever.

America remained the epicenter of technological innovation for decades; in fact, the unofficial ‘scoreboard’ of the world’s most technologically advanced nation was whoever could build the fastest supercomputer.

And the answer was obviously the United States... until Japan shocked the world in 1995 and beat the fastest US supercomputer. America quickly reclaimed the top spot, only to be bested by Japan again in 2002.

The two great technological powers jostled for #1 for the next several years until the unthinkable happened in 2010: China developed the world’s fastest supercomputer.

For the past sixteen years, those three powers— America, Japan, and China, have traded the trophy. And China just retook it from the US again last week.

This is a symbolic, albeit critical competition— especially now as there are so many challenges to America’s economic, military, and geopolitical leadership.

Why is America falling behind? Because of its own soft “Cultural Revolution” driving out competence and rewarding the people who build nothing.

During COVID, the government and media conspired to destroy the careers of anyone who questioned Tony Fauci.

Shortly thereafter, the DEI cult took over. From transgender Bud Light influencers to absurdly woke Disney movies to mandatory diversity quotas in corporate boardrooms... and it went all the way to the most powerful institutions in America.

Joe Biden promised a female running mate as his Vice President, and a black woman as a Supreme Court justice. His obsession with diversity over merit resulted in two extremely unqualified people in some of the nation’s highest offices.

The end result has been predictable across the military, public health, medicine, and the media, institutions that increasingly selected for ideology over competence.

Mao destroyed his most capable people on purpose, and it cost China a generation. America is now doing the same thing to itself in a softer way.

But regardless of the tactics, any country that pushes out people who can design the chips, fly the planes, run the labs, and keep the lights on, is shooting itself in the foot.

Here’s another interesting example—

On a recent, private call for our top-tier Total Access members, we spoke with a really unique American entrepreneur based in Africa who sees this DEI rot every single day.

China, he told us, runs a "full court press" in Africa. The Chinese government fights for its businesses and helps them invest aggressively in the strategic resources that China needs back home. Food production. Energy. Water. Minerals.

Meanwhile, as China rapidly scoops up critical resources and builds relationships on the continent, the US-funded Western NGOs are busy with DEI and climate change initiatives.

He told us about one particular NGO, a group that pulled out of a critical agricultural investment over concerns that there weren’t enough women involved and too much CO2.

The difference in priorities between China and the West could not be more obvious.

Now, none of this means that China takes over the world. America has faced down a rising manufacturing rival before. It absorbed Japan's challenge in the 1980s, and it out-produced and out-innovated the Soviet Union as well.

The United States still commands the deepest capital markets on earth, enormous pools of talent, and a genius for inventing and building that no rival has ever matched.

China's problems, by contrast, are far greater.

It shares borders with fourteen countries, including North Korea, Pakistan, India, and Afghanistan. It doesn’t have trusted relations with a single one of them.

China is the largest oil importer in the world by a wide margin and has astonishingly thin per-capita reserves. It is lean on water and quality farmland. Its regional governments are buried under mountains of debt.

And it is, quite bizarrely, facing a massive demographic crisis of its own making (from years of its idiotic one child policy) while simultaneously and precariously trying to keep a population of 1.4 billion people under strict authoritarian control.

Plus, let’s be honest— a centrally planned economy will not deliver maximum innovation. Yes, America has its own idiots in office. But for every Lizzie Warren and AOC, China has plenty of its own morons in government service who make painfully idiotic decisions.

America’s problems are gargantuan, yes. But at their core, they are completely fixable. Three simple approaches would dramatically move the needle. Quickly.

Cut the federal deficit by reducing obvious fraud and exercising common sense restraint.
Boost economic productivity by eliminating pointless federal and state regulations.
Focus exclusively on merit rather than DEI credentials.

Those three are very simple and straightforward, and they would dramatically move the needle. And that’s before tackling other challenges like Social Security, immigration, and election reform.

China might have temporarily taken the top spot in supercomputing. But this is still America’s race to lose.

The plan is maddeningly simple. Unfortunately, if history is any guide, Congress will probably do nothing until there’s a bad-enough crisis to force them to act. And that’s why it makes so much sense to have a Plan B.

Two Hands on the Dinar

By Reset Intelligence | @EXIT_FIAT

Iraq has stopped just arresting its corrupt officials and started counting their cash. This week Baghdad opened a dedicated state account to receive every dinar, every dollar and every bar of gold seized in the crackdown that locked down the Green Zone on Sunday.

Reset Intelligence: Two Hands on the Dinar

7-1-2026

The same week, Iran’s foreign minister flew into Baghdad and US and Iranian negotiators sat down in Doha over the Strait of Hormuz. Two hands are working the dinar at once.

The recovery

The arrests were the opening move. The recovery is the one that matters. The government says the net is still widening, with new names surfacing in every interrogation.

• State account – opened to deposit all seized corruption funds; officials call it only the first phase

• Recovered so far – over $107 million tied to the oil-ministry case, including 98 billion dinars and $11 million in cash, plus 70 properties, 21 vehicles and gold

• Under investigation – close to 1,000 officials

• The courts – the former director-general of the tax commission sentenced to 10 years and stripped of 22 properties for money laundering

The squeeze from Tehran

Iran’s foreign minister Abbas Araghchi met the prime minister and the top of the Iraqi state on a visit booked before the raids, warning against any separate arrangement on the Strait of Hormuz. That pressure landed in Doha, where the US and Iran are talking over the strait. Baghdad has set September 30 as the deadline for Iran-backed armed groups to surrender their weapons.

The calendar

Parliament returns July 1. A special session on July 5 is meant to seat the final 9 ministers, including interior and defence. A cleaned, fully formed government then flies to Washington in the middle of the month.

What the people who hoarded it knew

You have been told for years that the dinar is a scam, a dead currency in a broken country. Here is what the people who hoarded it knew that you were told to ignore. They did not stuff their walls with a currency they thought was worthless.

They buried the gold and moved their savings offshore because they expected the dinar to be worth far more in time, and they wanted to be holding it when it was. The corruption was a bet on the upside. The arrests take that bet off them.

The names on the warrant were never the story. What they were guarding is.

That is the read most people miss. The full daily briefing connects it night after night – why pulling the stolen currency back in, cleaning the banks and seating a government before Washington is the exact sequence a country runs in the stretch before it reprices its money, and what that means for anyone holding the dinar.

Iraq’s Market Transition, Dinar Reality, and Gold Revaluation

Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi’s interview laying out the shift to a “market economy” with a strong, revalued dinar is the operational language for decoupling from post-2003 dependency hell. It’s the hard pivot away from the artificial program rate that kept Iraq chained to dollar auctions and smuggling networks.

Ariel: Iraq’s Market Transition, Dinar Reality, and Gold Revaluation

7-1-2026

Trump’s comments on welcoming a weaker USD to enable real Middle East business make perfect sense the old strong-dollar weapon hurt legitimate trade while protecting the financial intermediaries.

Vietnam pushing the same market transition shows the broader BRICS-adjacent realignment away from fiat dominance.

The new CBI Governor coming straight from the AML/TF office is the enforcer. He knows exactly where the leaks were.

Starlink and ASYCUDA give the digital eyes and customs teeth. HCL negotiations are the revenue lock clean oil money, no more KRG gray zones or militia blending.

Gold stacking (170+ tons and growing) is the sound money anchor for Dollar 2.0 mechanics. Judy Shelton has been consistent on gold discipline for years.

Trump’s gold bald eagle image drop is the signal: we’re going back to tangible value that doesn’t erode through printing and endless wars.

The delay? There is none. The featured cleanup is first priority so the revalued dinar (redenomination + strengthening) holds. Iraq knows this.

They stacked gold because they see the writing on the wall: asset-backed systems over fiat sorcery. The artificial rate kept the old networks fat. Removing it for real trade with America forces the structural break. This is fortunate because it prevents a boom-bust that would let the parasites buy back in cheap.

The transition is brutal but necessary corruption exposed, reserves built, rails installed. When it lands, Iraq’s true wealth (oil, gold, diversified revenue) reflects in a dinar that actually works instead of bleeding value.

Chevron, Iraq Sign West Qurna 2 Confidentiality Deal

2026-07-01 06:23 Shafaq News- Basra Iraq's Basra Oil Company signed a confidentiality agreement with US energy giant Chevron on Wednesday to exchange technical information for evaluating the West Qurna 2 oil field and advancing negotiations on its future development.

Oil Minister Bassem Mohammed Khudair Al-Abadi, who attended the signing ceremony, noted that Russia's Lukoil had withdrawn from developing West Qurna 2, one of Iraq's largest oil fields, while the ministry continues negotiations with Chevron over the field and other projects.

Al-Abadi said the Oil Ministry is expanding opportunities for international energy companies by providing a secure investment environment and removing obstacles to investment. Iraq aims to strengthen its position among the world's leading oil producers and exporters, he added, reaffirming the ministry's commitment to working with international energy companies, which he described as key partners in developing the country's oil and gas sectors.

Foreign investment, he stressed, would create opportunities for Iraqi businesses, generate jobs, and improve infrastructure and public services in nearby communities through corporate social responsibility initiatives.

Discovered in 1973, the field contains more than 13 billion barrels of recoverable reserves and produces between 400,000 and 480,000 barrels per day, accounting for nearly 10% of Iraq's total crude output.

Strict Directives To Subject Government Vehicles To Strict Inspection On External Roads Inside Iraq

Twilight News – Diyala Security sources said on Wednesday that the competent authorities have received strict directives to stop government vehicles and subject them to a thorough inspection, especially on the main roads and lines linking the central, north and south governorates.

The sources told Shafaq News that these measures have entered into force and include official wheels between the provinces, in order to thwart any attempts to smuggle money or documents, or any other assets that may be linked to files currently under investigation.

This field step comes in conjunction with an escalating anti-corruption campaign launched by the government at dawn last Sunday, and affected officials, deputies and businessmen, which Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi described as the "first phase" of a broader path to recover public money, directing the regulatory bodies to fully mobilize to receive any indicators related to corruption or institutional failure.

In a related context, the Strategic Center for Human Rights warned on Tuesday morning of misleading campaigns aimed at spreading frustration by claiming that anti-corruption efforts will stop or that they will not reach "large heads," considering those attempts an effort to undermine public confidence in the ongoing government and judicial measures.

MiCA Crypto Rules Take Full Effect Across Europe, Triggering Major Industry Shakeout

The European Union has fully implemented its Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation, requiring all crypto service providers to hold an approved license or cease operations. The sweeping regulatory framework is expected to reshape Europe's digital asset industry by reducing the number of operating firms while strengthening investor protections and regulatory oversight.

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

MiCA Crypto Rules Take Full Effect Across Europe, Triggering Major Industry Shakeout

Overview

MiCA is now fully in force across the European Union, requiring crypto firms to obtain regulatory authorization to continue operating.
Only about 20% of previously registered firms successfully secured MiCA licenses, creating one of the largest regulatory shakeouts in crypto history.
Licensed exchanges are expected to gain market share as investors migrate toward compliant platforms offering stronger consumer protections.

Key Developments

1. MiCA Enforcement Officially Begins

The European Union's Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) framework officially became fully enforceable on July 1, 2026, ending the transition period for crypto-asset service providers (CASPs). Firms without MiCA authorization are now expected to cease operations or wind down their services within the EU.

2. Majority of Crypto Firms Exit the Market

Of more than 1,200 firms previously operating under national registration systems, only approximately 210–244 obtained MiCA authorization. The result is a dramatic consolidation of the European crypto market as many smaller providers either close, merge, or relocate.

3. Consumer Protection Becomes the Priority

MiCA introduces standardized disclosure requirements, stronger custody rules, operational safeguards, and enhanced regulatory supervision. Investors using licensed exchanges should benefit from greater transparency and accountability compared to the fragmented national systems previously in place.

4. Stablecoin Market Continues to Evolve

Earlier MiCA provisions governing stablecoins have already reshaped the market. Several exchanges removed certain non-compliant stablecoins from European platforms, while MiCA-compliant alternatives are expected to continue expanding throughout the region.

5. Liquidity Shifts Toward Licensed Platforms

With fewer exchanges operating legally, trading activity is likely to concentrate among approved providers. While this may improve regulatory oversight, analysts note it could also temporarily reduce liquidity for smaller cryptocurrencies as markets adjust.

Why It Matters

MiCA represents the world's first comprehensive regulatory framework governing the cryptocurrency industry across a major economic bloc. Rather than prohibiting digital assets, the EU is creating standardized rules intended to increase investor confidence, encourage institutional participation, and establish consistent oversight across all member states.

Why It Matters to Foreign Currency Holders

Although MiCA focuses on digital assets rather than traditional foreign currencies, the regulation reflects the growing integration of digital finance into the global monetary system. As governments establish clearer rules for tokenized assets and stablecoins, digital payment infrastructure continues evolving alongside traditional financial markets that currency investors closely monitor.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar 2 – Trade

A unified regulatory framework creates a more consistent digital asset marketplace across Europe, supporting cross-border financial activity and reducing regulatory fragmentation.

Pillar 4 – Technology

MiCA accelerates the institutional adoption of regulated blockchain infrastructure by establishing common standards for digital asset service providers, custody, compliance, and stablecoins throughout the European Union.

Future Outlook

The initial implementation of MiCA is expected to be followed by continued licensing approvals, market consolidation, and increasing institutional participation. As compliant exchanges expand and new regulated products enter the market, Europe may emerge as one of the world's most mature digital asset jurisdictions, potentially influencing how other countries regulate cryptocurrencies in the years ahead.

This is not just about cryptocurrency regulation—it reflects the broader global shift toward integrating digital assets into the regulated financial system through standardized oversight, stronger investor protections, and modern financial infrastructure.

The Company Behind the Digital Dollar Is Stockpiling Gold

The Company Behind the Digital Dollar Is Stockpiling Gold

Taylor Kenny: 6-30-2026

Tether gold reserves reveal a hard-money warning for digital dollar holders as U.S. debt, stablecoins, and gold collide.

A recent analysis highlights a remarkable maneuver by the company: while they continue to issue digital stablecoins pegged to the US dollar, they are simultaneously diversifying into one of the oldest stores of value in human history—physical gold.

The Company Behind the Digital Dollar Is Stockpiling Gold

Taylor Kenny: 6-30-2026

Tether gold reserves reveal a hard-money warning for digital dollar holders as U.S. debt, stablecoins, and gold collide.

The scale of Tether’s operations is staggering. Currently, the company holds roughly $125 billion in US Treasury debt, placing it in an elite category of holders that exceeds the sovereign reserves of major nations like Germany and Saudi Arabia.

This position isn’t accidental; it has been bolstered by legislation like the 2023 Genius Act, which encourages stablecoins to be backed by Treasury securities.

By continuously issuing digital dollars, Tether creates a consistent, high-volume demand for US government debt. This provides a critical service to a US Treasury market currently strained by the need to borrow money just to cover interest payments on existing debt.

However, it is what Tether does with its profits that demands attention. Instead of reinvesting solely into more debt or traditional financial instruments, the company has been aggressively converting a significant portion of its capital into physical gold.

Furthermore, this gold is not merely sitting idle—reports indicate it is being stored in highly secure, specialized facilities, such as former nuclear bunkers in Switzerland. This pivot suggests that while Tether remains a pillar of support for the US dollar, its leadership is hedging against the long-term stability of the fiat system itself.

The strategic alignment between Tether’s reserves and major financial institutions suggests that these moves are calculated and well-informed. The management of these massive reserves involves key brokers with deep ties to the Federal Reserve and the US Treasury.

When we analyze the overlapping connections between high-level policy decision-makers and corporate financial entities, a clear picture emerges: those at the top of the financial hierarchy may be preparing for a significant shift in monetary policy.

Some analysts suggest that Tether’s gold accumulation isn’t just a corporate reserve policy; it reflects a long-term strategic pivot toward tangible assets. By investing in gold infrastructure and distribution, the company is positioning itself to be insulated from the volatility that often accompanies major cycles of currency devaluation.

The history of finance is littered with examples of governments devaluing fiat currencies and, in some cases, restricting the public’s ability to hold gold.

The current global environment, marked by rising debt and shifting international loyalties, mirrors past eras where fiat assets became increasingly susceptible to policy risks. International observers have even warned that global stablecoin adoption could become a pathway for a controlled devaluation, potentially impacting those who rely exclusively on dollar-based digital assets.

The core lesson for the individual investor is clear: the most effective way to preserve wealth during periods of transition is to hold assets that exist independently of the banking ledger.

While digital stablecoins offer utility and speed, they remain subject to the rules and stability of the underlying monetary system. In contrast, physical gold and silver represent a hedge against the unpredictability of central bank policy.

As the global financial landscape grows increasingly complex, the actions of major institutions like Tether serve as a bellwether for what may lie ahead. While the move toward digital finance continues, the “smart money” is clearly looking toward the foundational stability of precious metals.

For those concerned about potential monetary instability, diversifying one’s portfolio with tangible, physical assets—gold and silver—remains a time-tested strategy for wealth preservation.

Tishwash: On the way to America

The visit of the Prime Minister to the United States of America is approaching, in response to an official invitation from the US President. The Iraqi delegation is scheduled to head to Washington in mid-July, in an important political and economic stop that is being anticipated by both government circles and business circles.

It is customary in international practice for heads of state and government to include in their foreign visits a select group of leading business figures and heads of influential companies and economic institutions, individuals with a proven track record of achievements and a significant presence in local and global markets.

Tishwash: On the way to America

Government representation is often limited to a small number of officials, while the majority of the delegation consists of economic figures capable of transforming official meetings into tangible investment opportunities and projects that serve the interests of their countries.

These visits gain their importance from the fact that they are not protocol occasions or ordinary diplomatic trips, but rather intensive workshops dedicated to holding meetings and encounters, building partnerships and attracting investments, in order to achieve long-term strategic goals.

Hence, the selection of individuals participating in the economic delegation should be based on criteria of competence, experience, and the ability to represent the Iraqi private sector in a way that reflects its true potential, with a focus on those with successful experiences and existing projects on the ground, who have the ability to build bridges of cooperation with American companies and institutions.

Iraq today needs to seize every opportunity to promote its investment climate and present its development needs to major international companies, particularly in vital sectors that form the cornerstone of sustainable economic growth. Building strategic partnerships with international investors will also contribute to the transfer of expertise and technology, create jobs, and drive development.

The success of a visit is not measured by the number of meetings or statements issued, but rather by the agreements, projects, and real investment opportunities it can yield.

Iraq needs a comprehensive investment revolution to revitalize its economy, pull it out of its stagnation, and open up new horizons. For growth, development, and prosperity. link

Tishwash: After the legislative recess... a bet on finalizing the postponed laws.

MP Hussein Shaker affirmed on Tuesday that the Parliament will resume its work after the legislative recess to proceed with enacting important laws, stressing the need to avoid repeating the political disputes that plagued previous sessions and hampered the legislative body's work.

Shaker told the Information Agency, "The Parliament will work after the legislative recess to enact important laws that represent a priority for the coming period, in line with the requirements of the current phase and the needs of the citizens."

He added, "There is a trend within the Parliament to overcome the obstacles that hindered legislative work during previous sessions and to avoid repeating the scenario of political disputes that negatively impacted the performance of the legislative body and affected the passage of many important laws."

He pointed out that "the next phase requires cooperation among the political blocs to complete the remaining laws and expedite the enactment of laws that serve the public interest and strengthen the work of state institutions."

Shaker emphasized that "the success of the Parliament in performing its legislative and oversight duties requires moving beyond political disputes and focusing on completing the important pending laws, in a way that fulfills the aspirations of citizens and contributes to strengthening political and institutional stability."

Among the stalled laws are the Popular Mobilization Forces Law, the Oil and Gas Law, as well as amendments to the Land Ownership Law and the Federal Supreme Court Law. These laws require overcoming disagreements and prioritizing the national interest in order to be passed. link

Tishwash: Parliament is expected to convene in early July to decide on nine ministerial portfolios in al-Zidi's government.

Member of the Coordination Framework, Uday Abdul-Hadi, predicted on Monday that a session of the Council of Representatives would be held during the first week of July to vote on nine ministerial portfolios in Ali al-Zaidi's government.

Abdul-Hadi told Al-Maalouma, "There is political support for completing the formation of Ali al-Zaidi's government from the forces within the Coordination Framework, in coordination with the other political forces and movements." He anticipated "a session of the Council of Representatives in the first week of July to vote on the candidates for nine ministerial portfolios, in order to complete the remaining cabinet positions."

He added that "next week will witness an important round of political meetings, especially among the forces within the Coordination Framework, to finalize the choices regarding the candidates' names, particularly for the sovereign ministries." He indicated that "expectations point to reaching a comprehensive agreement that will lead to holding the parliamentary session and voting on the candidates for the nine ministerial portfolios." link

Tishwash: Sanad: Iraq has become a regional communications hub and an international data transmission corridor.

Communications Minister Mustafa Sand confirmed on Wednesday that the achievements in the communications sector represent an important milestone that will make Iraq a regional communications hub and an international data transmission corridor, noting the continued work on developing infrastructure and expanding internet services in various parts of the country.

During the opening ceremony of the third edition of the Iraqi Communications Summit, which was attended by a correspondent from Shafaq News Agency, Sand said that since the ministry took over responsibility for the communications sector, it has put in place a plan to develop this sector, which included expanding free internet services in a number of locations, including holy shrines, external roads during the Arbaeen pilgrimage season, border crossings, as well as other places.

He added that the ministry has worked on expanding the fiber optic cable project and increasing internet service capacities, which contributes to improving the quality of service, stressing that what has been achieved so far represents an important milestone that makes Iraq a regional communications hub and an important site for digital transformation, in addition to being an international corridor for data transmission.

The Minister of Communications indicated that the ministry continues to work on developing the infrastructure of the communications sector, expanding fiber optic networks, improving communications services, and supporting the development of internet networks and systems.

On June 25, Sanad announced the signing of an agreement with the Qatari company GBI to market cross-border internet (transit) capacities through the "Road of Civilizations" project, confirming the receipt of the first financial payment in hard currency, in a step aimed at strengthening Iraq's position as a regional and international digital corridor for data traffic. link

Tishwash: Source: Al-Zaidi intends to demand that Jordan hand over businessmen and former officials accused of corruption

An Iraqi political source told the Jordanian newspaper “Khaberni” that Iraqi Prime Minister Ali Faleh al-Zaidi is about to issue official letters to Jordan to hand over businessmen and former officials accused of corruption.

The source, who is close to al-Zaydi's political circle, said that the communications would include businessmen working in the car trade, a potato chip factory, and a private hospital.

The sources indicated that the suspects are required to return tens of millions of dollars, not to mention unspecified quantities of gold, and that Baghdad will formally request the seizure of their assets.

The Iraqi Prime Minister had previously confirmed that the campaign represents a “first phase” in the fight against corruption, stressing the continuation of efforts to recover public funds, and emphasizing that there will be no leniency in protecting the interests of citizens.

The Iraqi News Agency had announced the arrest of 47 defendants, including deputies and officials, in corruption cases, and published the names of 15 of them, citing sources it described as high-ranking. link

Tishwash: Under the auspices of the Minister of Oil... a confidentiality agreement was signed between Basra Oil Company and the American company Chevron.

The Basra Oil Company signed a confidentiality agreement with the American company Chevron on Wednesday to regulate the exchange of information for the purpose of evaluating the West Qurna 2 field and negotiating future agreements.

Oil Minister Basim Mohammed Khudair al-Abadi stated in a press release: "The West Qurna 2 field is a giant oil field, and the Russian company Lukoil withdrew from its development operations."

The minister indicated that the ministry provides ample opportunities for international companies to invest, including the American company Chevron, emphasizing the attractive and secure investment environment and the removal of all obstacles.

He affirmed that Iraq aspires to be a leading nation in oil production and exports, thereby achieving industrial and economic development for the country, and noted the ministry's commitment to the interests of international companies operating in Iraq.

He also emphasized the ministry's adherence to the government's directives regarding the importance of supporting international companies, which are considered partners in developing the oil and gas sectors, and indicated that full support will be provided to ensure the success of these projects and the achievement of the government's objectives.

The minister added that the investment projects being implemented secure job opportunities for local companies, in addition to employing Iraqi workers and developing service infrastructure in areas near the projects through social benefit initiatives.

It is worth noting that the ministry is negotiating with the American company Chevron to implement several projects in addition to the West Qurna 2 field. link

Ariel: The Broader Summer Window

6-30-2026

As of mid-2026, it’s unifying customs across federal and Kurdish borders, automating declarations, cutting smuggling windows, and forcing electronic payments. Traders have b*****d about higher costs and delays, but the government is holding firm this is the compliance hammer that seals the old paper-and-cash graft pipelines.

The full rollout across border crossings is accelerating. Pre-arrival declarations started late 2025, and the system is now biting into real-time tracking for oil, goods, and currency flows. This directly supports the cashless push by early July no more easy Dubai outflows or militia blending ops.

The new CBI Governor coming from the AML/TF office? That’s not coincidence. He’s the enforcer who knows exactly where the leaks were. Starlink license approval layered on top gives the satellite backbone so remote posts and oil fields can feed data without terrestrial sabotage. This is how you make ISO 20022 actually work on the ground instead of on paper.

The Broader Summer Window – Now to July 17th

This is the grind paying off. The frustration is real as we all have been waiting to get to where we are for a good while now. Im just glad that things are speeding up. Because the machine was embedded deep, but the foundations are locking.

Starlink, ASYCUDA, AML Governor, HCL pressure, gold collateral these are the rails for a sovereign dinar and Dollar 2.0 sound money. Trump’s Versailles signature in the old mandate halls is poetic reversal. The old order is fracturing.

Stephen Someone...reached out to me last week. He was telling me he had a conversation with his branch manager at Chase. He was asking them if they verified currency on site. He goes, no, we don't at this branch. We might need to send it off. And I go, no, no, no, no, no. You don't send your money, your dinar anywhere. You don't let it out of your sight...You're not going to be putting your currency in a paper envelope and trust that it's going to get to its location because that could be a multi-million dollar mistake. There's no reversing that mistake...

Jeff There have been in the past 10 years one or two points where they've been close to revaluing but didn't. The reason why they couldn't? They have too much political instability and corruption. They couldn't get it done. Where we're at right here, with the current government administration, we are witnessing the most overall steps getting completed than ever before in Iraq's history.

Reset Intelligence Iraq quietly opened a dedicated state account to count the cash it is pulling out of the walls and the holes and the offshore accounts of its own political class...Investigators have now recovered over $107 million tied to the oil-ministry case alone, including 98 billion dinars and $11 million in cash, plus 70 properties, 21 vehicles and gold... Close to 1,000 officials are now under investigation. This is not a raid. It is an audit of an entire political class...You have been told for years the dinar is a scam. The people who hoarded it knew better.

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

UN Warns Hormuz Disruption Could Leave Lasting Economic Scars

Although the Strait of Hormuz has reopened and energy markets have stabilized, the United Nations warns that the economic effects of months-long supply disruptions could continue to burden vulnerable economies through higher food prices, transportation costs, and inflation.

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

UN Warns Hormuz Disruption Could Leave Lasting Economic Scars

Overview

The United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) warns that the economic consequences of the Strait of Hormuz disruption will outlast the geopolitical crisis.
While oil prices have largely recovered, transportation, fertilizer, and food costs are expected to remain elevated, particularly for developing nations.
Import-dependent economies face prolonged inflationary pressures that could threaten food security, economic growth, and social stability.

Key Developments

1. Supply Chains Recover More Slowly Than Energy Markets

The reopening of the Strait of Hormuz has restored global energy shipments and helped crude oil prices return closer to pre-conflict levels.
However, UNCTAD notes that shipping networks, logistics operations, and inventory systems require considerably more time to normalize, meaning transportation costs are likely to remain elevated even as fuel prices decline.

2. Food Inflation Remains a Major Concern

According to the report, higher transportation, fuel, and fertilizer costs continue to flow through agricultural production and food distribution networks.

As a result, food prices may remain elevated well after energy markets stabilize, placing additional financial pressure on households worldwide.

3. Developing Nations Face the Greatest Risk

Countries heavily dependent on imported fuel, fertilizers, and food supplies remain especially vulnerable.

Many developing economies have limited fiscal resources to offset rising import costs, leaving governments with fewer options to protect consumers from persistent inflation.

4. Rising Food Costs Could Increase Humanitarian Challenges

UNCTAD warns that sustained increases in food prices could worsen food insecurity, increase malnutrition, and place greater strain on social assistance programs.

Lower-income households are expected to bear the greatest burden as essential living expenses remain elevated.

5. International Cooperation Will Be Critical

The agency believes coordinated international support—including financial assistance, food aid, and investments in stronger supply chains—will be essential to helping vulnerable economies recover.

Without additional support, inflationary pressures could slow economic growth long after shipping through Hormuz has resumed.

Why It Matters

The reopening of the Strait of Hormuz marks only the beginning of the global recovery. While energy markets have responded quickly, broader economic systems—including agriculture, transportation, and international trade—typically recover much more slowly.

The report illustrates how geopolitical disruptions can produce lasting economic consequences that extend well beyond the immediate crisis.

Why It Matters to Foreign Currency Holders

Persistent inflation and uneven economic recovery could place additional pressure on currencies in import-dependent nations while reinforcing the importance of economic resilience and sound fiscal management. Although this does not directly signal foreign currency revaluations, it demonstrates how global supply chain disruptions continue to influence monetary policy, inflation, and exchange-rate stability.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar 1 – Debt

Higher food and transportation costs may increase government spending, fiscal deficits, and borrowing needs, particularly across developing economies already facing financial constraints.

Pillar 2 – Trade

The Hormuz disruption highlights the importance of resilient global supply chains, diversified shipping routes, and reduced dependence on strategic maritime chokepoints.

Pillar 3 – Assets

Persistent inflation and geopolitical uncertainty may continue supporting demand for defensive assets, strategic commodities, and other traditional stores of value.

Pillar 4 – Technology

Governments and businesses are expected to accelerate investments in logistics technology, supply chain monitoring, and digital trade infrastructure to improve resilience during future disruptions.

Pillar 5 – Energy

The crisis reinforces the strategic importance of diversified energy supplies, expanded strategic reserves, and continued investment in renewable energy and alternative transportation corridors.

Looking Ahead

Although the immediate threat to global energy supplies has eased, the broader economic recovery is expected to take considerably longer. Policymakers will likely focus on strengthening supply chains, controlling inflation, and supporting vulnerable economies while preparing for future geopolitical disruptions.

This is not just about reopening a critical shipping lane—it reflects the lasting economic impact that geopolitical conflicts can have on global trade, food security, inflation, and the resilience of the international financial system.

🌱 A Message to Our Currency Holders🌱

If you’ve been holding foreign currency for many years, you were not foolish.
You were not wrong to believe the global financial system would change.

What failed was not your patience — it was the information you were given.

For years, dates, rumors, and personalities replaced facts, structure, and proof. “This week” predictions created cycles of hope and disappointment that were never based on how currencies actually change.

That is not your failure.

Our mission here is different: • No dates • No rates • No hype • No gurus

Instead, we focus on:
• Verifiable developments • Institutional evidence
• Global financial structure • Where countries actually sit in the process

Currency value changes only come after sovereignty, trade, banking, settlement systems, and fiscal coordination are in place. History and institutions confirm this sequence.

You will see silence. You will see denials. That is not delay — that is discipline.

Protect your identity. Organize your documents. Verify everything.
Never hand your discernment to anyone who cannot show proof.

You deserve truth — not timelines.
