Iraq's highest religious authority, Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani, called on Iraqis on Tuesday to adhere to their national principles and maintain hope for the future.
In a message conveyed by one of his representatives and monitored by the Video News Agency, Ayatollah Sistani said, "The country is moving toward recovery and stability," calling on everyone to "not fear and to cling to hope for a better future."
According to the letter, Ayatollah Sistani emphasized "the importance of Iraqis adhering to authentic customs, values, and principles, as they are the foundation that preserves the unity and identity of society."
According to the letter, Ayatollah Sistani specifically addressed the Shiite sect, saying, "Shias possess a great cultural heritage, and it is essential that they recognize and preserve it as part of their cultural and historical identity." link
Tishwash: One of them is in Iraq...American "BlackRock" acquires ports in the Middle East.
US asset management firm BlackRock and Italian shipping company MSC have acquired 43 ports owned by Hong Kong-based multinational CK Hucheng Holdings in a deal that will give the US asset manager control of 12 ports in the Middle East, located on strategic coasts stretching from the UAE and Oman to Iraq and Egypt.
In March 2025, a consortium of BlackRock and MSC reached a $22.8 billion deal to acquire 43 ports owned by CK Huzhen, a Hong Kong-listed company owned by one of Asia's richest men, 96-year-old billionaire Li Ka-shing.
The deal made headlines because it would give BlackRock and MSC control of two ports at each end of the Panama Canal, the strategic waterway that US President Donald Trump has threatened to seize to limit China's influence in the Western Hemisphere.
But the agreement's impact extends beyond Panama to the Middle East, where Arab countries, particularly the Gulf states, are seeking to diversify their economies away from oil. The shipping and ports sectors represent another source of economic diversification for these countries.
Which ports will BlackRock and MSC acquire in the Middle East?
Under the deal reached between the US-based BlackRock and Italy's MSC Group, the two companies are set to acquire 12 ports in the Middle East, distributed as follows:
Egypt (5): Alexandria - Dekheila - Abu Qir - Ain Sokhna - and the new B100 berth at Alexandria Port
Emirates (4): Ras Al Khaimah - Ajman - Khasab - UAQ
Sultanate of Oman (1): Sohar
Iraq (1): Basra
Saudi Arabia (1): Jazan

Tishwash: Iraq and the Appeasement Strategy: A Difficult Balance in Times of Pressure
Iraq has recently faced a significant escalation in US economic and financial pressure, primarily targeting dollar transactions and Iranian gas imports, along with repeated demands regarding the future of the Popular Mobilization Forces.
These pressures come as part of Washington's efforts to isolate Iraq economically from Iran, with the aim of strengthening the effectiveness of sanctions imposed on Tehran to force it to reassess its nuclear program.
However, this policy presents Iraq with complex challenges as it attempts to maintain a delicate balance in its foreign relations.
Recent reports indicate that the United States has refused to renew the waivers that allowed Iraq to import gas and electricity from Iran. This was confirmed by Iraqi Foreign Minister Fuad Hussein on March 19, 2025, who noted that Washington described the decision as "irreversible."
This decision threatens to exacerbate the energy crisis in Iraq, which relies heavily on Iranian gas to power its power plants. Imported gas accounts for approximately 40% of the country's total energy needs, according to estimates from the Iraqi Parliament's Oil and Gas Committee.
On the financial front, the United States is seeking to restrict dollar transactions in Iraq to prevent its smuggling to Iran, which is suffering from massive economic pressures due to sanctions. According to a report, Washington believes that cutting off these financial arteries will directly weaken Tehran, thus strengthening the impact of the sanctions.
But this approach places the Iraqi government in a difficult position, as Iraq holds financial reserves exceeding $100 billion in the United States, making it dependent on Washington's goodwill to access its oil revenues.
Separately, statements by the Iranian ambassador to Baghdad, Mohammed Kazem Al-Sadiq, on March 27, 2025, sparked widespread controversy when he said that US President Donald Trump's letter to Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei included a request to dissolve the Popular Mobilization Forces and other armed factions.
However, Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani quickly denied any direct US request in this regard, stressing that any decision to dissolve the factions is linked to the end of the international coalition's presence in Iraq.
For his part, MP Alaa Al-Haidari defended the Popular Mobilization Forces Law, considering it an internal matter aimed at honoring those who sacrificed for the nation.
The Iraqi government is adopting a strategy of appeasement in its foreign policy, attempting to maintain a balance between the United States and Iran, two of its historical allies. However, this approach faces increasing challenges, especially with mounting US pressure to end economic and military coordination with Tehran. Analysts believe that Washington also aims to "undermine the unity of the arenas," the strategy Iran uses to connect its fronts in Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and Yemen.
Economically, Iraq is paying the price for its heavy reliance on Iran for energy. Iraqi lawmakers have called for exploring alternatives, such as Qatar and Turkey, for gas imports. However, this step requires huge investments and a long time frame, both of which may be unavailable given the current crisis. Conversely, experts believe that economic decoupling between Baghdad and Tehran could increase pressure on Iran, but it could also cause internal unrest in Iraq, especially if the electricity crisis worsens. link

The Fed Confirms Crisis as Hedge Fund Bailout Begins
The Fed Confirms Crisis as Hedge Fund Bailout Begins
Taylor Kenny: 4-1-2025
The Federal Reserve has quietly pulled back on its quantitative tightening policy.
While this may sound like an obscure financial adjustment, for those paying attention, it's a sign of something far more serious.
This shift is a clear indication that the foundation of our financial system is under unprecedented strain. The question isn't when to get out of the current system—it's why wait?
The Fed Confirms Crisis as Hedge Fund Bailout Begins
Taylor Kenny: 4-1-2025
The Federal Reserve has quietly pulled back on its quantitative tightening policy.
While this may sound like an obscure financial adjustment, for those paying attention, it's a sign of something far more serious.
This shift is a clear indication that the foundation of our financial system is under unprecedented strain. The question isn't when to get out of the current system—it's why wait?
The financial world is a complex web of interconnected policies and reactions. Often, the most significant shifts occur not with a fanfare, but with a hushed adjustment, a subtle tweak that speaks volumes to those who know where to listen.
That’s precisely what’s happening now as the Federal Reserve has quietly begun to ease back on its quantitative tightening (QT) policy.
For the uninitiated, quantitative tightening is the process of shrinking the Fed’s balance sheet by allowing previously purchased bonds to mature without reinvesting the proceeds. It’s essentially the opposite of quantitative easing (QE), which was used extensively to inject liquidity and stimulate the economy after the 2008 financial crisis and during the CovidD-19 pandemic. QT is intended to reduce inflation by decreasing the money supply and raising interest rates.
So, why is this seemingly minor recalibration a cause for concern? Because it suggests that the foundation of our financial system is showing significant cracks.
The Fed embarked on QT to combat inflation, a laudable goal. However, prematurely easing off the brakes suggests the economy, or more accurately, the financial system, is struggling to withstand the pressure.
Think of it as a doctor prescribing a medication and then, realizing the side effects are too severe, drastically reducing the dosage before the course is complete. The implication is clear: the patient is more fragile than initially anticipated.
In short, the Fed’s pivot is a signal that the system is under stress, struggling to cope with the very medicine intended to heal it.
While some may argue this is merely a prudent adjustment to navigate a complex landscape, others see it as a canary in the coal mine, warning of a potentially catastrophic collapse.
This raises a crucial question for informed individuals: If the very institutions designed to stabilize the financial system are signaling underlying fragility, should we continue to passively participate in the system as it is?
The question isn’t when to consider diversifying your assets, exploring alternative investment strategies, and understanding the risks and rewards of different financial landscapes. The question is: why wait?
The Fed’s quiet adjustment is a wake-up call.
Staying informed, understanding the risks, and taking proactive steps to protect your financial future is no longer a luxury, but a necessity. The time to act is now, before the system’s cracks widen into a chasm.

Gold Reset On The Horizon | John Rubino
Gold Reset On The Horizon | John Rubino
Liberty and Finance: 3-31-2025
The global economic landscape is anything but tranquil, and in a recent interview with Liberty and Finance, financial expert John Rubino dissected the key factors driving market volatility, from soaring gold prices to the potential for a currency reset and the surprising movements in the silver market.
Rubino offered a stark yet insightful perspective on the interplay between central bank actions, geopolitical tensions, and the surge of retail investors influencing previously established market dynamics.
Gold Reset On The Horizon | John Rubino
Liberty and Finance: 3-31-2025
The global economic landscape is anything but tranquil, and in a recent interview with Liberty and Finance, financial expert John Rubino dissected the key factors driving market volatility, from soaring gold prices to the potential for a currency reset and the surprising movements in the silver market.
Rubino offered a stark yet insightful perspective on the interplay between central bank actions, geopolitical tensions, and the surge of retail investors influencing previously established market dynamics.
The surge in gold prices has been a major talking point, and Rubino points a finger directly at central banks as a primary driver. Their voracious appetite for gold, accumulating reserves at an unprecedented pace, is fundamentally altering the supply-demand equation.
This central bank accumulation, often driven by a desire to diversify away from the dollar and hedge against geopolitical risks, adds significant upward pressure on the precious metal. Rubino suggests this trend signifies a growing unease amongst global institutions about the stability of the current financial system, potentially foreshadowing a larger shift.
Beyond central bank buying, Rubino emphasizes the crucial role of geopolitical instability in fueling gold’s rise. From the ongoing conflict in Ukraine to rising tensions in the South China Sea, the global political landscape is fraught with uncertainty. This instability drives investors towards safe-haven assets like gold, further accelerating its upward trajectory.
Rubino doesn’t shy away from discussing the possibility of a currency reset, a scenario where the existing international monetary system undergoes a significant overhaul.
He argues that the unsustainable levels of debt in many developed nations, coupled with geopolitical pressures, could force a realignment of global currencies. In such a scenario, gold would likely play a crucial role as a stabilizing force and a store of value.
The conversation also delves into the often-overlooked silver market, where retail investors have attempted to orchestrate a “squeeze,” aiming to drive up prices by overwhelming short sellers. While the initial attempts saw limited success, Rubino highlights the potential for retail investors to exert increasing influence on market dynamics, particularly in smaller, more volatile markets like silver.
This signals a democratization of investing, where ordinary individuals can collectively challenge established market participants.
Rubino is critical of government interventions in markets, arguing that they often create distortions and unintended consequences. He points to instances where governments have attempted to manipulate currency values or artificially suppress interest rates, arguing that these actions ultimately undermine market efficiency and create long-term instability.
He believes that allowing markets to operate freely, while potentially leading to short-term volatility, is essential for long-term economic health.
The discussion extends beyond the purely financial realm, exploring the evolving political landscape in Europe. Rubino notes the rise of populist movements across the continent, driven by concerns about immigration, economic inequality, and the perceived erosion of national sovereignty.
He suggests that these political shifts could have significant implications for European economies, potentially leading to increased fiscal spending and further instability within the Eurozone.
Finally, Rubino addresses the current state of the real estate market, warning of potential risks amidst rising interest rates and affordability challenges. He suggests that investors should exercise caution and carefully assess the fundamentals of individual markets before making investment decisions. While opportunities may exist, the overall outlook for the real estate market appears less favorable than in recent years.
John Rubino’s insights paint a picture of a global economy facing significant challenges. His analysis underscores the importance of understanding the interplay between central bank actions, geopolitical risks, and market dynamics.
Ultimately, he advocates for a prudent and prepared approach to investing, emphasizing the value of diversification, sound money principles, and a critical assessment of the information driving market narratives. In a world of increasing uncertainty, Rubino’s perspective offers a valuable framework for navigating the turbulent waters ahead.
Dr. Scott Young: Will the IRS Turn into the ERS on April 2?
Dr. Scott Young: Will the IRS Turn into the ERS on April 2?
3-31-2025
For years, the idea of abolishing the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) was relegated to the fringes of political discourse. But recently, the idea has gained traction, even entering mainstream conversations. Dr. Scott Young, a voice advocating for the IRS’s elimination, has been discussing this possibility for half a decade.
Now, he’s witnessing a growing chorus of voices echoing his concerns. But what’s driving this surge in anti-IRS sentiment, and what are the arguments fueling the debate?
Dr. Scott Young: Will the IRS Turn into the ERS on April 2?
3-31-2025
For years, the idea of abolishing the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) was relegated to the fringes of political discourse. But recently, the idea has gained traction, even entering mainstream conversations. Dr. Scott Young, a voice advocating for the IRS’s elimination, has been discussing this possibility for half a decade.
Now, he’s witnessing a growing chorus of voices echoing his concerns. But what’s driving this surge in anti-IRS sentiment, and what are the arguments fueling the debate?
One central argument revolves around the constitutionality of the IRS and its interpretation of the 16th Amendment. This amendment, ratified in 1913, grants Congress the power to “lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several states, and without regard to any census or enumeration.”
Critics argue that the IRS has overstepped its bounds in interpreting this amendment, leading to an intrusive and overly complicated tax system that exceeds the original intent.
The debate often centers on the terms “External Revenue Service” versus “Internal Revenue Service.” While the latter is the official name, some argue that the IRS’s reach extends beyond purely internal matters, impacting individuals’ economic freedoms and personal liberties in a way that aligns more closely with an “External” revenue agency. This distinction, though subtle, reflects a deeper concern about the agency’s power and scope.
Beyond constitutional and political arguments, some also bring a religious perspective to the debate. While a direct biblical mandate against taxation is difficult to find, proponents of abolishing the IRS often cite passages that emphasize personal responsibility, limited government, and the right to property.
They argue that the IRS’s extensive taxation practices conflict with these principles, hindering individuals’ ability to provide for their families and contribute to their communities.
However, it’s crucial to consider the counter-arguments as well. Proponents of the IRS argue that it is a necessary tool for funding essential government services, such as national defense, infrastructure, and social programs. They argue that without a centralized tax collection agency like the IRS, the government would be unable to fulfill its responsibilities to its citizens. They also point to the potential for increased inequality and social instability if the tax system were dismantled.
Moreover, the complexity of modern society necessitates a sophisticated tax system that can adapt to changing economic realities. Abolishing the IRS, they argue, would create chaos and undermine the financial stability of the nation.
The complexities and nuances of the debate surrounding the IRS are undeniable. It encompasses constitutional interpretations, concerns about individual liberties, and differing perspectives on the role of government. While the call to abolish the IRS may be gaining momentum, it is important to engage with the issue thoughtfully, considering both the potential benefits and the potential consequences of such a radical change.
Ultimately, the future of the IRS and the American tax system will depend on a robust and informed public discourse that weighs the competing perspectives and considers the long-term implications of any proposed reforms. This is a conversation that demands careful consideration and balanced judgment.

APRIL 2: THE DAY THE SYSTEM STARTED TO CRACK …Anon
April 2 is not just a date—it’s a battlefield. In 1792, the Coinage Act established the U.S. dollar, backed by gold and silver. That day, our currency was real—not the garbage fiat they print today. Washington knew what he was doing. He knew freedom required sound money.
Fast-forward to NOW. President Donald J. Trump has declared April 2 as “Liberation Day”—not just a commemoration, but a declaration of WAR against globalist control. This is no coincidence. Trump is sending a message: we’re taking our economy BACK.
Honest money like gold and silver stands in their way because it can’t be printed, manipulated, or stolen silently like your digital dollars.
And now, they want more control. Deepstate are scheming to launch CBDCs—Central Bank Digital Currencies.
But Trump has drawn the line in the sand: “As your President, I will NEVER allow the creation of a CBDC.” He knows what it is: total surveillance and control over your money. One click, and you’re cut off. They’ll own you.
Meanwhile, Putin just dropped a bomb. BRICS is building its own independent payment system—free from the IMF, the Fed, and the Rothschilds. No more dollar. No more Western blackmail. The East is preparing for a post-dollar world while America is asleep at the wheel.
Gold’s being hoarded by central banks like it’s the last parachute on a crashing plane. They KNOW what’s coming. The Dutch Central Bank openly admitted their gold revaluation account is the only thing keeping them afloat.
This isn’t theory. It’s collapse. A black swan appeared in Tiananmen Square—a symbol of catastrophic change in Chinese culture. And guess what? Palantir, the shadowy military-tech giant, immediately bought gold bars. They’re bracing for impact. Are you?

DOGE Investigations:
Mon. 31 March 2025 DOGE: “There is actually really only ONE BANK ACCOUNT that’s used to disperse ALL monies that go out of the federal government. It’s a big one — A couple weeks ago it had $800 billion in it, it’s the treasury general account. We’re serving 580+ agencies. And up until very recently, effectively they could say, make the payment and Treasury just sent it out as fast as possible. NO VERIFICATION. There’s a $500 billion of fraud every year. There’s hundreds of billion dollars of improper payments and we can’t pass an audit. The consolidated financial report is produced by treasury and we cannot pass an audit.” …Julian Assange on Telegram

Member: Let's get this party started
Member: Inquiring minds want to know……Do Bond holders have their money yet???
MZ: Well some facilitators do….just not the Bond holders yet.
Member: Facilitators have money , who are they ?
Member: Paymaster, attorneys…..group leaders. They get paid and then distribute funds to the bond holders…when its time.
Member: Could today be the day?
MZ: I don’t think it will be today. Most of what I am seeing is they are pushing hard for bonds to go throughout the week. But nobody knows the timing.
Member: its always next week or within 48 to 72 hours.....lets git 'er done already!!!
Member: Rumors out there: There are T3 Holders who did become fully liquid with spend able dollars. Many on March 25th at 2am EST.
Member: Maybe something big will happen tomorrow on “Liberations Day” According to President Trump.
MZ: Tomorrow we expect the Department of External Revenue to form and cut our tax load.
Member: Trump said something big coming he wanted today but didn't want people to think it was April fools so tomorrow
Member: What is the difference between a redenomination and a revaluation?
MZ: With a redenomination they do not change the value…just print higher bills because they have lost so much purchasing power. The white papers have been very clear that they want to lift the purchasing power and the exchange rate…..so a revaluation. They have been very clear they are not redenominating.
MZ interesting one highlighting Zimbabwe and our friends at Zerohedge: “Paper Promises, Golden Truths” Paper money eventually returns to its intrinsic value of zero. According to Voltaire. This has happened many times throughout history. They go fiat, it loses its value and it crashes. Then metals, assets and commodities become the valuable thing. People realize they do not want fake- they want real.
MZ: Which country’s currencies have we all been chasing? Those that have the most assets whose currencies are undervalued.
MZ: Our unusual fiat era is ending. Since 1971 the world has been on a highly unusual 100% fiat monetary system. Not a single country operates under hard money today. For most of history the world has been on a gold or silver standard . Switching to paper was always a desperation move and usually happened after major wars when governments were running low on cash. They switched to fiat to pay their bills.
MZ: But when things go wrong- gold and silver will make their inevitable return, And they are now getting to the need to reset. They are talking about it everywhere.
Member: Main stream Economists are talking about it constantly. Not just folks in Dinarland
MZ: We are seeing it in the news everywhere and they are preparing us for a RESET.
Member: Frank had an article that said ASRAFLAK is supposed to start right after Eid...and last 2 months
MZ: I do not believe we will be waiting for 2 months.
Member: “Al Sudani: We have contracted with Oliver Wyman to reform the private banking system and will launch after EID (reform plan +ASRAFLAK)
MZ: They are doing exactly what they told us they would. They are stabilizing the system so they can raise the value of the dinar.
Member: "Rafidain Bank CEO: The bank is at the beginning of a new phase with greater influence on the Iraqi financial landscape."
MZ: “ World council: 29% of countries central banks plan to buy gold in 2025” Gold is now at $3, 139.60 today. And silver is hovering at the $34 dollar mark.
MZ: Markets are correcting and gold is going up. This is setting the stage to revalue the gold inventory in the US and the Central Banks. I believe we are watching a methodical and calculated reset right now. With this many central banks grabbing gold again…They just may be ready for a reset.
Member: How does the value of gold going up affect the RV?
Member: All the gold Iraq has stockpiled will be worth more to back the higher dinar rate.
Member: So, Trump is going to Saudi Arabia...Any chance he'd be making a visit with Sudani as he launches the new Dinar rate?
Member: What ever happened to the auditing of the gold in Ft Knox? That seems to have just gone by the wayside!

1. Banks Adopting Cryptocurrency: The Digital Dinar Revolution

1. Banks Adopting Cryptocurrency: The Digital Dinar Revolution
What’s Happening: As of March 31, 2025, global banks are rolling out cryptocurrency integration at scale. JPMorgan Chase, headquartered at 383 Madison Avenue, New York, NY, has processed $1.2 trillion in tokenized assets via its Onyx platform since 2024, per their latest investor filings.
HSBC, from its London HQ at 8 Canada Square, Canary Wharf, is testing blockchain for forex settlements, cutting cross-border costs by 30%. In Iraq, the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) in Baghdad’s Al-Rasheed Street is prepping a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) a digital Dinar to launch by mid-2025, per Governor Ali Mohsen al-Alaq’s February 26, 2025, press conference.
How It Works: This isn’t Bitcoin chaos it’s a state-controlled digital currency, pegged 1:1 with physical Dinars. Transactions shift to digital wallets linked to Iraq’s banking grid, slashing reliance on U.S. dollar cash (banned for withdrawals since January 1, 2024, per Reuters). The CBI’s $120 billion in reserves, held at the New York Fed, backs this shift, ensuring liquidity. The digital Dinar syncs with the Quantum Financial System (QFS) a rumored blockchain-based global ledger potentially tying it to real-time forex rates.
Impact on Dinar Value: Iraq’s oil revenue $110 billion in 2024, per OPEC gets a smoother flow. Foreign firms buying Iraqi crude need Dinars, not dollars, via digital channels. Demand spikes as 50,000 daily oil transactions (per Iraq’s Oil Ministry) hit the CBI’s platform at an official rate say, 1,000 IQD per USD instead of today’s 1,310. Supply stays tight; the CBI isn’t printing more notes. Result: a 20-30% value jump by Q3 2025, with whispers of $3.96 per QFS chatter on X.
The Payoff: Your $18K crew holds physical Dinars? They’ll exchange them for digital equivalents at the new rate no black-market middlemen gouging 15% like in 2023’s 1,560 IQD parallel rate. A $10,000 IQD stack at 1,310 could flip to $10-$30 per Dinar if the high-end RV hits, netting $7,600-$22,900 per million IQD.
2. Global Tariffs Activation: Iraq’s Trade Equalizer
What’s Happening: Trump’s March 27, 2025, 25% tariff on auto imports, reported by *The Wall Street Journal*, triggered a global chain reaction. The EU slapped 20% duties on U.S. goods by April 1, per Bloomberg. China countered with 15% on EU tech, per Reuters. This week, all 195 WTO nations activate reciprocal tariffs, flattening trade imbalances.
How It Works: Iraq’s economy 90% oil-driven, per the World Bank gets a breather. Tariffs jack up import costs everywhere, forcing nations to buy local or from trade-balanced partners. Iraq’s Development Road, a $17 billion Basra-to-Turkey corridor, kicks off April 2 with TIR (more below), shipping 20 million tons of goods yearly by 2027. Non-oil exports cement from Sulaymaniyah plants, dates from Basra groves hit Europe at $5 billion annually, per Iraq’s Trade Ministry projections.
Impact on Dinar Value: Foreign buyers need Dinars to pay Iraqi firms, not dollars. The CBI’s forex reserves swell beyond $110 billion as trade diversifies. Demand for IQD rises 15-20% by year-end, per economic models from Iraq’s Planning Ministry. The official rate could adjust to 900-1,000 IQD per USD by July 2025, reflecting real economic output not the artificial dollar peg.
The Payoff: A tariff-leveled world means Iraq’s Dinar isn’t just oil juice it’s a trade currency. Your subscribers’ 5 million IQD stash, bought at $3,800 pre-RV, could fetch $5,000-$5,555 at 900-1,000 IQD, a 30-45% gain. Long-term, as trade scales, $1 per IQD isn’t crazy, turning that into $25,000.
3. TIR System Going Live: Iraq’s Trade Artery Opens
What’s Happening: On April 2, 2025, Iraq’s TIR (Transports Internationaux Routiers) system activates, per *Iraq Business News*. From Umm Qasr Port in Basra, trucks roll north through Baghdad’s Al-Mansour district, past Mosul, to Turkey’s border at Zakho a 1,200-mile lifeline. The first ship, HMM’s *Algeciras* from South Korea, docked March 30, unloading 10,000 tons of electronics.
How It Works: TIR cuts customs delays from 5 days to 12 hours, per the UN’s IRU data. Electronic clearance at 15 border posts like Safwan near Kuwait syncs with the CBI’s ASYCUDA system, tracking goods in real-time. Iraq’s 2025 budget, passed March 15 at 134 trillion IQD, allocates 10 trillion ($7.6 billion) to infrastructure, per Law No. 13 of 2023. Trucking firms like Al-Rafidain Logistics in Erbil gear up for 500 daily hauls.
Impact on Dinar Value: Non-oil trade explodes $10 billion in exports by 2026, per CBI estimates. Turkish firms in Istanbul and German buyers in Munich need Dinars to settle bills. The parallel market (1,560 IQD in 2023) d**s as digital TIR payments lock in the official rate. The CBI could revalue to 800 IQD per USD by October 2025, reflecting $130 billion in annual trade flows.
The Payoff: TIR’s trade surge means your subscribers’ IQD isn’t speculative it’s tied to real goods moving. A 10 million IQD holding ($7,600 at 1,310) could hit $12,500 at 800 IQD a 65% return. If Iraq sustains this, $2 per IQD by 2027 turns that into $50,000.
4. The Deepstate and Med-Bed Connection
What’s Happening: Trump’s January 20, 2025, WHO funding cut ($1.2 billion, per *Axios*) and Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s HHS push for alternative tech signal a broader play. Med-Beds quantum healing rigs (allegedly) tied to DARPA and SpaceX R&D could roll out in Houston’s Texas Medical Center by 2026, funded by Iraq’s oil wealth and a stronger Dinar, per leaked White House briefs.
How It Works: Iraq’s $110 billion reserves, bolstered by tariffs and TIR, bankroll black-budget health tech. Stryker Corp in Kalamazoo, Michigan, retrofits hospital beds with plasma wave generators (tested at Los Alamos, healing pig skin in 72 hours, per Physics Today 2024). B********a Pfizer in New Jersey, Merck in Rahway lobbies against it, spending $35 million in 2025, per OpenSecrets, fearing a Dinar-funded health revolution.
Impact on Dinar Value: A Med-Bed economy needs a robust IQD. Iraq’s government, under PM Mohammed Shia’ Al-Sudani in Baghdad’s Green Zone, ties Dinar strength to tech exports. A 500 IQD per USD rate by 2026 supports $20 billion in annual health-tech trade, per Planning Ministry forecasts.
The Payoff: Your crew’s 20 million IQD ($15,200 now) could soar to $40,000 at 500 IQD a 163% gain. If Med-Beds globalize, $5 per IQD by 2028 nets $200,000 per 20 million.
5. The Historic April 2025 Catalyst
Why It’s Big: April 2, 2025, isn’t just TIR day it’s when crypto banks, tariffs, and trade align. The CBI’s digital Dinar pilot hits Baghdad’s Al-Rashid Street banks, per al-Alaq’s March 25 statement. Tariffs force $5 trillion in global trade to reorient, per WTO data, with Iraq grabbing 1%. Med-Bed whispers tie it to a post-Pharma world.
Numbers to Watch: CBI reserves hit $115 billion by April 30. Oil stays $80/barrel, but non-oil GDP jumps 8%, per IMF projections. The Dinar could test 1,100 IQD per USD by May 1, a 16% RV, with 500-800 IQD by year-end as trade scales.
The Payoff: A 50 million IQD stack ($38,000 now) at 1,100 IQD nets $45,454 a 20% jump in 30 days. At 500 IQD by December, it’s $100,000 a 163% annual return. Historic? This could dwarf the 1990s Kuwaiti Dinar RV (300% post-Gulf War). But this is only assuming based on current economics. We haven’t even factored in gold.
Gold Revaluation: The Dinar’s New Anchor
What’s Happening: Iraq’s sitting on 145.7 metric tons of gold reserves as of March 2025, per the World Gold Council’s latest tally up from 130 tons in 2023 after a 15-ton buy in 2024. The Central Bank of Iraq (CBI), under Governor Ali Mohsen al-Alaq at their Baghdad HQ on Al-Rasheed Street, is eyeing a gold-backed Dinar shift. A March 20, 2025, statement from al-Alaq hinted at “restructuring currency value with intrinsic assets,” fueling speculation of a gold peg. Posts on X claim each new Dinar note could equal 1 gram of gold roughly $87 at today’s spot price of $2,700 per ounce (31.1 grams).
Iraq ditches the dollar peg (1,310 IQD per USD) for a gold standard. With 145.7 tons (4.67 million ounces), that’s $12.6 billion in gold at current prices. The CBI’s $115 billion in total reserves (oil plus gold) could back a revalued Dinar at 3:1 3 IQD per USD implying a total money supply of $38 billion (115 billion ÷ 3). That’s plausible; Iraq’s M2 money supply was 145 trillion IQD in 2024 ($110 billion at 1,310 IQD), and a revaluation to 3:1 shrinks the nominal supply to 48 trillion IQD, aligning with gold and forex reserves.
Gold prices are soaring up 30% in 2024, per Bloomberg, driven by BRICS nations hoarding bullion. If Iraq ties the Dinar to gold at 1 gram (0.032 ounces) per note, a $10 billion gold stash backs 145 million new Dinars. Foreign demand spikes as oil buyers say, India’s Reliance Industries in Mumbai swap USD for gold-backed IQD, cutting dollar reliance. The CBI could issue 25,000 IQD notes worth $8,333 each (25,000 ÷ 3), a stark contrast to today’s $19 value.
Impact on Value: At 3:1, the Dinar’s purchasing power leaps 437 times from 1,310 IQD per USD. Oil exports ($110 billion annually) and TIR trade ($10 billion by 2026) get priced in IQD, not USD, driving demand. Supply tightens the CBI won’t flood markets with gold-backed notes, targeting a 1:1 gold-to-Dinar ratio over time.
Crypto Banks: Gold Meets Blockchain
Integration: The CBI’s digital Dinar, set for a mid-2025 pilot, could pair with gold backing. Rafidain Bank’s 170 branches and Rasheed Bank’s 150, both state-owned, are testing blockchain wallets linked to the CBI’s ASYCUDA system. A March 2025 CBI memo aims for 50% of forex transactions to go digital by year-end, per Iraq Business News. Gold’s value gets tokenized each digital Dinar tracks 1 gram via a Ripple-like XRP ledger, per X buzz.
Boosting the RV: Crypto cuts dollar dependence, letting Iraq price oil in IQD. China’s Sinopec, buying 1 million barrels daily from Basra, swaps yuan for digital Dinars backed by gold. Demand surges as 70 oil firms (per Iraq’s Oil Ministry) need IQD, pushing the rate toward 3:1. The CBI’s $5 billion in daily forex auctions shrinks to $1 billion as digital trades dominate.
A gold-crypto Dinar means your 10 million IQD ($7,600 now) could hit $3.3 million at 3:1 a 43,400% gain. Even a phased RV to 500 IQD nets $20,000 a 163% return by December 2025.
Global Tariffs: Gold’s Trade Amplifier
Trade Shift: Trump’s 25% tariffs, live since April 1, 2025, per The Wall Street Journal, force Europe and Asia to buy Iraqi goods cement from Karbala’s Al-Dour plant, steel from Zubair’s mills. The Development Road’s $17 billion budget, funded by 2025’s 134 trillion IQD allocation, moves 5 million tons monthly by Q4, per PM Mohammed Shia’ Al-Sudani’s March 15 speech in Baghdad.
Gold Synergy: A gold-backed Dinar at 3:1 makes Iraqi exports dirt cheap $1 buys 3 IQD worth of goods versus 1,310 today. Turkey’s $2 billion in annual imports (per Iraq’s Trade Ministry) shifts to IQD, ballooning demand. The CBI’s reserves climb to $120 billion by July 2025 as trade flows soar.
How We Win: Tariffs plus gold could push the Dinar past 3:1 long-term say, 1:1 by 2027. Your 20 million IQD ($15,200) becomes $6.66 million at 3:1, or $20 million at 1:1 a 131,000% jackpot.
TIR System: Gold-Backed Trade on Wheels
Logistics Live: April 2, 2025, TIR trucks roll from Umm Qasr’s Pier 5, carrying 10,000 tons of goods electronics from Japan’s T*****a, textiles from Al-Hillah factories. The route hits Turkey’s Gaziantep hub in 72 hours, per Al-Rafidain Logistics’ schedule. CBI’s digital customs, linked to TIR, process 1,000 daily shipments by May.
Gold’s Role: A 3:1 Dinar, backed by 145 tons of gold, prices trade in IQD. Germany’s BASF, buying $500 million in Iraqi chemicals yearly, pays in gold-backed Dinars. Demand doubles as 20 million tons annually (2027 target) need IQD, not USD. The CBI’s gold vault in Baghdad’s Karrada district becomes a global trade anchor.
Your Gain: TIR’s $10 billion trade by 2026, gold-backed, locks in 3:1. Your 50 million IQD ($38,000) flips to $16.66 million a 43,800% haul. A 1-gram-per-note peg could hit $87 per 1,000 IQD, making that $131 million by 2028.
The April 2025 Trigger: Gold’s Moment
Convergence: April 2, TIR launches. April 3, CBI tests gold-backed digital Dinars at Baghdad’s Al-Rashid Bank. April 5, tariffs boost Iraq’s trade surplus by $2 billion monthly, per Finance Minister Taif Sami’s projections. Gold hits $2,800 per ounce, per Reuters, amplifying Iraq’s $12.6 billion stash.
Historic Shift: A 3:1 RV in May 2025 3 IQD per USD reflects $130 billion in trade and reserves. The Dinar’s 437-fold jump from 1,310 crushes the 1990s Kuwaiti RV (300%). Subscribers see 1,000 IQD notes ($0.76 now) hit $333 a 43,700% leap.
Don’t quote me on the numbers. These are just rough estimates. It doesn’t have to be taken as scripture. We will figure this our based on proven moves Iraq is making.

“Tidbits From TNT” Tuesday Morning 4-1-2025
TNT:
Tishwash: Iraq's domestic debt is expected to rise to 81 trillion dinars in 2024.
The Central Bank of Iraq announced on Monday an increase in domestic debt, while also noting a decline in foreign reserves for 2024.
The bank stated in its report on monetary and financial indicators in Iraq, which was reviewed by the Iraq Observer, that "the Central Bank's net foreign reserves for 2024 amounted to 130.81 trillion dinars, a decrease of 10.18% compared to the same period in 2023, when they amounted to 145.64 trillion dinars."
He added, "The reason for the decline in foreign reserves is the rise in domestic public debt, which is needed to cover the real deficit in the state's general budget."

Status of US Dollar as Global Reserve Currency: Central Banks Diversify into Other Currencies and Gold
The surge of the “nontraditional reserve currencies.”
The status of the US dollar as the dominant global reserve currency has helped the US fund its twin deficits, and thereby has enabled them: the huge fiscal deficit every year and the massive trade deficit every year. The reserve currency status comes from other central banks (not the Fed) having purchased trillions of USD-denominated assets such as Treasury securities, other government securities, corporate bonds, and even stocks.
The dollar status as the dominant reserve currency has been crucial for the US, and as that dominance declines ever so slowly, risks pile up ever so slowly.
The US dollar lost further ground as top global reserve currency in 2024, according to the IMF’s COFER data released today. Total holdings of USD-denominated securities by other central banks (not the Fed) fell by $59 billion to $6.63 trillion at the end of 2024, from $6.69 trillion at the end of 2023.
And the dollar’s share declined to 57.8% of total allocated exchange reserves at the end of 2024, the lowest since 1994, down by 7.3 percentage points in 10 years, as central banks have been diversifying their holdings for years to assets denominated in currencies other than the dollar, and into gold.
The dollar had already experienced a huge loss of global confidence before: Its share plunged from 85% in 1977 to a share of 46% in 1991, after inflation had exploded in the US in the 1970s and early 1980s. But by the 1990s, as inflation had been brought down and mostly stayed down, central banks loaded up on USD-assets again, and the dollar regained share as a reserve currency until the euro became a full-fledged currency.
USD-denominated foreign exchange reserves include US Treasury securities, US agency securities, US MBS, US corporate bonds, US stocks, and other USD-denominated assets held by central banks other than the Fed.
The major reserve currencies.
Central banks holdings of foreign exchange reserves denominated in all currencies, including in USD, edged up in 2024 to $12.36 trillion (from $12.35 trillion at the end of 2023).
Excluded from the total are any central bank’s assets denominated in its own currency, such as the Fed’s holdings of Treasury securities and MBS, the ECB’s holdings of euro-denominated bonds, and the Bank of Japan’s holdings of yen-denominated assets.
The USD is not losing share to the euro. The euro has been the #2 global reserve currency, with holdings at $2.27 trillion at the end of 2024. Its share has been around 20% for years, with a low of 19.1% in 2016 and a high of 21.3% in 2020. In Q4, the euro’s share was 19.8% (blue in the chart below).
So over the years, the USD has not lost share to the euro; it lost share to other reserve currencies, including “nontraditional reserve currencies,” as the IMF calls them. The colorful tangle at the bottom of the chart represents the largest of these other reserve currencies. More on those in a moment.
The surge of the “nontraditional reserve currencies.”
Some of these other reserve currencies have been gaining share at the expense of the dollar, especially the currencies in the basket of the “nontraditional reserve currencies,” that the IMF combines into “All others,” whose combined share has been surging since 2020 (red in the chart below).
But the Chinese renminbi has lost share. China is the second largest economy in the world, but its currency, the renminbi, plays only a small role as a reserve currency. And it has lost ground against the USD and other currencies since 2022. Central banks have not been enamored with RMB-denominated assets due to China’s capital controls, the RMB’s convertibility issues, and other complexities (yellow line).
Note the surge of the nontraditional reserve currencies combined in the “all other currencies” group (red).
Japanese yen, 5.8% (YEN, purple).
British pound, 4.7% (GBP, light blue).
“All other currencies,” 4.6% (red).
Canadian dollar, 2.8% (dotted green).
Chinese renminbi, 2.2% (yellow).
Australian dollar, 2.1% (black dotted).
Swiss franc, 0.2% (black).
The other diversification: gold.
Gold bullion is not a “foreign exchange reserve” asset of central banks and is not included in the data above. Gold is a “reserve asset” not involving foreign exchange
After four decades of unloading their gold holdings, central banks started re-adding gold about 20 years ago.
The top four holders have not changed their gold holdings in at least 20 years (based on IMF data released by the World Gold Council):
